Chapter 27
Riker POV
I turned and started walking back home.
"Riker wait!"
I kept walking and ignored Kat.
"RIKER!"
Kat ran up in front of me, stopping me.
"Riker, I'm sorry. I really didn't know."
"Kat, go home. I'm really just done."
"Well this conversation is not! Come back. I need to talk to you!"
I sighed and followed Kat back to her house. We sat down on the couch in her living room.
"Please talk to me, don't just sit there."
"What do you want me to say!? Why did you bring me back here?"
"I want to fix this!"
"You can't Kat! I can't believe you would do that to me!"
"I didn't know!"
"It doesn't matter Kat! It still hurts!"
"I know! I'm sorry! But I really didn't mean to!"
"Can I go home now?"
"Riker."
"What!?"
"I'm sorry."
"Stop saying that!"
"But I really am!"
"Can I leave now?"
"No! Not until this is fixed!"
"You can't fix it Kat! You can't!"
"But-"
"You can't Kat!"
"Well then why not!?"
"Because you'll never love me!"
I got up and bolted out of Kat's house. I turned back, and was glad she wasn't following me this time.
Kat POV
What have I done? What have I done!?
I called Ross.
"Ross?"
"Yeah? Why are you crying?"
"I messed up."
"How? Are you ok!?"
"Just… Just tell me when Riker gets back. I need to know that he's safe."
"Uh… ok? But-"
"I have to go. Just tell me when he gets back ok?"
"Yeah."
Ross POV
Almost at the exact time Kat hung up, the front door flew open.
"Riker, you're back. Where were you?"
"Don't talk to me."
"Riker-"
"I said don't talk to me!"
Riker ran up the stairs. I texted Kat that Riker was back, and went upstairs to see if I could help. I met Rocky outside his door.
"What's going on!?" I asked.
"I have no idea, but whatever it is, it's way worse than last time," said Rocky.
Rocky banged on his door a few times, but Riker wouldn't unlock it.
"I'll go get dad," I said.
I ran downstairs, and into my dad's office.
"Dad! You need to come help! Something happened with Riker and he won't open his door!"
My dad sprinted up the stairs faster than I've ever seen him move before.
"Riker, unlock this door!" My dad yelled.
Riker still didn't unlock it. He was going to be in such big trouble. We knew our dad meant business. My dad got the key above the doorframe and unlocked the door. We all ran in.
"RIKER!"
