"Thank you so much River" I gushed as I put my bag in the back seat and sat in the front."It's no problem if you don't mind my asking what happen?" He questioned.
If I tell him he'll hate me.
He'll never want to be friends again.
I can't tell him now. Not yet at least.
"Just an argument." I pushed the topic away.
He hummed in understanding.
I knew he wanted to push the topic but he decided not to.
After a ride in silence, we arrived at his house.
It was just as beautiful as I remembered.
He parked and we both got out of the car. We walked to the front door to see a mess of candy and ice cream all over the kitchen island and the floor.
I smile and look toward River for an explanation.
He rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment and chuckled.
"Leo and I were having our guy's night." He smiles again.
"Oh I'm so sorry I ruined it didn't I?!" I exclaimed.
"No!" He yells.
"I mean no, you didn't Leo went to sleep around an hour ago. I just didn't clean the mess yet." He recomposed himself.
"Oh okay, when I can help." I shrugged my shoulder and started putting the bowls and spoons in the sink.
River didn't object he probably knew I would fight him on this.
After about ten minutes of cleaning and scrubbing the kitchen was spotless.
River lead me to the living room couch and told me to have a seat.
"So, what should we do now?" I asked as I turned towards him.
His black hair was perfectly fluffy and shiny, his skin was tan and beautiful, and his eyes were the most gorgeous grey I had ever seen.
"Taliah?" He called me.
"Huh? Sorry, I zoned out." I said sheepishly.
"No worries. I said we could watch a movie." He said.
I nodded and turned towards the tv thinking about what we could watch.
"How about a horror movie?" He asked with a smile.
"Umm, definitely not. I don't like having nightmares." He shook my head.
"How about twilight!" I exclaimed.
