CHAPTER 24



The following week had been rough.

I had been busy helping my mom and dad take car of the younger kids and Elliot because each day of the week Alec was either at the court house or busy doing something pertaining to his dad's company.

i had gotten into trouble twice for the week.

Typical Riley.

Firstly, because I expressed my rights in class and got into an argument with a teacher, thus leading Oliver and I to get into an argument. I mean come on, you had to expect that, Oliver was a goody too shoes. I was somewhat of a rebel.

He told me he was disappointed in me and that i was wrong and I shouldn't have done what i had done. And i argued back by saying he knew i was like this before we were in a relationship. Thus leading him to shaking his head and walking away from me.

I kinda actually felt bad after and apologized to him.

Secondly, your girl. Riley Adalia Lynch spray painted the vehicle of Hunter Ragbeer. Of course, know one else know that I did other than Hunter.

He came up to our house, with the spray painted vehicle may i add. And told my parents what I did.

Hunter knew me. Like come on he knows that i was the only person capable of doing such acts to him. and i had gladly confessed. I told my parents what he had done to Alec and everything that had happened. Though they were furious with me, they spoke to Hunter and then scold me. I barely got away from the grounding. My dad said it was actually a good cause, just that it was a bad way of doing it.

Gosh, I love my parents.

When mom found out that Hunter had beaten Alec she was very close to pouncing on him saying "How dear you touch him." But dad barely scrambled her. 

I guess raising from the dead makes you feisty.

Today was Alec's birthday.

My parents had a little party for him this morning with just us where I gave him his gift. And Original Rolex  Watch.

 He better take care of it, I used my money that my aunts and uncles  gave me.

Yes I am loved.

He kissed me on the cheek and said thanks.

A kiss on the cheek which my mother got on camera, and threatened me that anytime i missed behave she was going to show Oliver.

His girlfriend, Zara. Was hosting a surprise party for him tonight at her place and Oliver and I were going together, that i what i'm getting ready for right now.

The girls, Isabelle, Jody and Ronnie were all at my place getting ready.

"Have I ever told you that your dad is so hot Riles." Isabelle said walking back into my bedroom from getting drinks from downstairs.

I frowned "Leave Ross Lynch out of this please." 

"No, but like seriously. He's so hot, your mom is so lucky. I hope to be like her when i'm Thirty five. Five kids. A sexy ass husband like Mr.Lynch and Still be slaying like her." She said making the other girls laugh.

I groaned, It was always a topic anytime the girls came over. 'Riley your dad's so hot!" and i'm like 'COME ON MAN, HE'S MY DAD!" 

They laughed and continued dressing.

My dad had shouted that he was leaving resulting in me shouting back a "BYE DAD, LOVE YOU!" and the girls awed.

When we finished dressing, which we all matched wearing light pink short dresses we realized that we had made a mistake.


it was Alec's Surprise party and we realized that if he was home, he could see us leaving.

So what we did?

We asked mom to quickly park the car a little way around the corner so he wouldn't see the car and when we got  downstairs we all took off our heels and ran like hell around the corner.

When we reached the car we began laughing.

When we got to the venue we had to park our car all the way down the street the walked back up.

Almost the entire school was here.

I quickly found Oliver standing next to Tristan and Kareem.

Oliver only came because I begged him to.

He was strongly against coming here and i had to bribe him to.

Don't even bother bursting your brain on what the bribe was.

"They're coming!" Some shouted.

The lights immediately turned off and everyone quieted down.

I was sitting on Oliver's lap as Isabelle squeezed my hand in excitement.

"Babe come on, can't we just go back at your place. I really don't wanna go anywhere fancy. What if i get food poisoning. You know how much i hate diarrhea"We could all hear Alec complaining to Zara, which made us all stifle our laughter.

"You will not get food poisoning Alec. Just relax okay.  This is your night you need to enjoy it." Zara replied.

Something about her statement cause bile to raise. Who dear gave her the right to talk that way to him.

Oh wait, that's right.

She's his girlfriend.

Someone sighed the the door open and a male shadow stepped in.

"Where's the ligh-" 

"SURPRISE!" Alec got cut off as the light switched on a tons of kids screamed surprise.

I couldn't see him until his football team mates lifted him into the air.

His face was shocked as a slow smile formed on his face.

He deserved this.

To be happy.

Alec looked GOOD!

He was wearing a buttoned up shirt and a black Suit pants that fitted his body perfectly.

A blushed at how i was thinking of him when Oliver was right next to me.

"You okay?" He asked.

I nodded and smiled.

He was uncomfortable.

He definitely was but if i was going to leave, i should at least tell Alec goodnight.

"I'll be right back, and then we'll leave." I said.

He shuck his head "No, it's cool. I can see that you really want to be here. And i'll bare it if that's what you want." he said.

I smiled up at him. 

I was ungrateful. I had a great boyfriend. Someone i was always crushing on and then suddenly my feelings for Alec came and  made everything confusing.

I smiled and kissed him before excusing myself.

The girls were dancing and i promised them that i would join them soon as i got back from telling alec hey.

When i found him, Zara was clinging unto him.

When he saw me he grinned "Riles. You knew about this and didn't tell me?" He asked hugging me.

When i moved back Zara was glaring at me.

"It's supposed to be a surprise Alec. How could i have told you." I said making him laugh.

"I really didn't expect this." He said.

Zara shifted in the corner looking at the ground.

"Yeah, well, You owe it all to your amazing girlfriend." I said. He head snapped up to me and he turned to look at her. "She organized everything. I believe she really does love you." It had began aching to say every word. He turned to me and I saw series of emotions  flashed across his face "She's a keeper." I said before walking away.

I felt as if I was saying goodbye to a secret lover.

But in my mind i knew that i was.

Zara really loved Alec. He deserved her. She was only like that because she wanted his attention and she wasn't getting any. I just figured that out tonight.

And, Oliver. He was way too good for me. He was sweet and caring and he understood me. And I really needed to start treating him better before i lost him.

My heart may be weeping for Alec.

But I knew that if there was ever a chance of me actually having him, in the right way without breaking anybody else's heart; I knew that now wasn't our time.
