Riley's POV

"Hiding away from me?"

A voice came out of nowhere. Just when I realised who's voice it really was, i was about to run but then- oh would you look at that! Stupid Vivian bumped into my shoulder.

"Ahh, Nicholas? What makes you here?" Vivian questioned once we both balanced ourselves.

"Oh nothing, I was follo- I mean.. ugh...!!!" It seemed he didn't have an answer.

"You mean..?" Vivian trailed off.

"I mean, just forget it. Do you know her?" Jerkface asked while staring at me.

"Ye- I mean no... who are you, Ril- really? I don't know you, right? Oh hahaha I don't know her, now do I? Lol!!!" I looked at Vivian which said 'that was very dumb!!!'.

'Why is she my best friend?' I questioned myself while staring down at the ground.

"Oh c'mon, Viv! She has your car keys!" I looked up at him and right at that moment I wanted to wrap my arms around his neck and just kill him.

"Hey! Thief! Why do you ya-" I cut her. "Excuse me, Vivian?" From the corner of my eye I saw jerkface trying to hide his smile.

"Let's go, Viv. If you wanna stand here all night or day, you can. I can hail a cab." Just before I said that, I took out m- I mean jerkface phone out of my jeans pocket, and threw it to him. And snatched my phone from his hand and walked away.

I hate him! I just hate him soooooo much!!! God why was it supposed to be me to meet such a handso- oh just shut up!!!

"Good Morning, Riley!!!!!!" Vivian shouted right in my ear.

"Jeez! What the heck, Vivian?! Are you mad? Well I know you are but still!"

She eyed me as if I had eaten her bag full of chocolate...

"What?" I asked her.

She was still staring at me the same way. "What?!"

"Nothing..." Her voice trailed off. "Y-your hair looks like a bomb exploded in there."

"You are so mean. Tell me what is the point of waking me up so early on a Sunday?!"

"Oh nothing much. We're going over to the lake house, as I promised you. Ignacio's gonna be there too, with obviously that b*tchy girlfriend of his."

Sigh. Girlfriend...

She is totally a gold digger but Ignacio just loves her too much to believe it.

Love her...

'Can you not just shut up, Riley?'

"Ok, so go downstairs. I'll be there in 5."

"No no no. I know your 5 minutes. You just minus the 0 while you say 5. If you put that 0 next to 5 makes it 50."

"So what? I am very sleepy right now." I said as I covered my face with the blanket. Out of nowhere, that blanket had been taken away from me.

"Fine!" I said as I got up and tied my hair. "You better pack my bag while I get ready. That is the only way you'll make up to me for taking away that blanket from me."

"Yeah yeah.."

"I know I can treat you better than he can..."

We were on our way to the lake house. Viv and I were listening - or more like singing - to our one and only favourite Shawn Mendes!!!

I was happy we're going to the lake house. I have been there once and I always wanted to go again.

Vivian's father bought it for her on her 18th birthday. She's 20 now, I am 21.

So practically she owns it, but rarely stays there. Ignacio seems to stay there like he owns the place.

That stupid jerkface is Ignacio's best friend. I just hope he is not there.

30 minutes passed by and we reached the lake house. We took out our bag packs and locked the car. Vivian ran the bell, the butler opened the door for us and gave us a huge smile on his face.

We smiled back and stepped inside. We could hear the TV, it was very loud.

We walked in the TV lounge and looked around to see.. a person sitting on the couch. His back was facing us.

It's probably Ignacio. We said 'hi' and just when he turned around, I promise I wanted to run back home.
