One Night Stand With The Bad Boy

One Night Stand With The Bad Boy (18)

"HOW COULD YOU?" I screamed, directing it towards Reece's mum.

"R-River, I'm so s-sorry," she broke down into tears, instantly a wave of guilt took over me, and I sat down next to her. "I h-honestly d-didn't mean t-to, I couldn't leave her o-out in the c-cold," she stammered again, still in tears. They arrived home yesterday, with a little surprise of their own, Kylie.

"It's okay," I rubbed her shoulder soothingly, "I'll just ignore her for the night, and before I know it, she'll be gone," I said, trying to sound as positive as I could.

"Are you sure," Leah said, looking up at me through teary eyes.

"I'm sure." I spoke gently, gave her shoulder one last squeeze, followed with a warm smile, then left to go outside.

"Reece?" I called, within seconds he was next to me, causing me to jump.

"Did I scare you?" He laughed, sounding very concerned that I got scared. Note my sarcasm.

"Yeah kinda." I just about got out, still jumpy from the fright.

"Hey sunshine," Kylie said, wrapping her arms around Reece for a hug. I don't know why, but this infuriated me.

"Sorry Kylie," Reece said, peeling her arms from around him, then walking over next to me and putting an arm around my shoulder, "but I'm with River."

"WHAT?! She shouted so loud I would say New York could hear.

"Yeah, what?" I turned to him, but he winked at me, then placed a kiss on my cheek. I couldn't help but go crimson, as if blushing wasn't bad enough, he saw it and started smirking. Stupid smirk.

"So are ye actually together, or is this just fake?" Man, she's quick. I couldn't play along to this, most definitely not.

"It's f-,"

"Real, they really are together," Junior said, standing next to my other side. Now I got back up if anyone ever wants to try and kick my ass. This is why you don't get dates River.

"How would you know?" She glared at Junior, waiting for an answer.

"He is my brother, I think I would know," he shrugged so casually, they must be used to lying, because I can't lie at all.

"Let me just ask sunshine, are you guys together?" I stopped for a few seconds to think about what to do, then I made up my mind.

"Why wouldn't we be?" I wrapped my arms around Reece's waist, he froze for a split second, but then returned the gesture. He placed a kiss on my head, then got back to hugging me.

"I don't believe it," she shrugged. Why wouldn't she believe it?

"Why?"

"Because, you're not Reece's type," she shrugged once again, "he usually goes for blonde, fit, and sexy girls, as for you, well you're just, blonde, skinny and not sexy," for a second, I felt a pang of hurt in my stomach, but it soon went when I felt Reece tense next to me.

"And who are you, to say who my type is?" He said, his jaw clenching, then unclenching.

"Look Kylie," I started, not sure where I was going with this, "Reece wasn't my type either, but then I got to know him, and soon I couldn't stop the feelings I had for him. It's not about 'types', it's about your feelings for that person." I didn't know I could say something so beautiful.

"O-o-oh," she said not long before strutting away.

"You guys so like each other," his brother laughed.

"W-W-Whaaaat?" I said, laughing it off. "I just needed something to say to get her to leave me alone," I laughed off, unconvincingly.

"Trust me Junior, I do not like her?" He pointed at me. Asshole.

"And trust me, I'm not too found of you either," I said, getting angry, "Wait, Kylie never noticed I can walk again, she really does have the attention span of a shovel," I started pissing myself laughing, no one joined in, how awkward.

"A-am," I coughed, "so bye then," I left to go upstairs away from the awkwardness.

"Ow," I yelped as I fell out of the bed, well that was sore. I've such a longing for a nice glass of water, bed or water, tough choice. Water it is.

I stumbled out of the bed, pulling a hoodie over my head the minute I felt the coldness.

"I'm just getting a glas,-" hey wait, Reece isn't in his bed, where is he. I creeped down the stairs because I heard voices further down.

"No Kylie, I don't want to be with you, just get that into your head," Reece sighed. What time is it?

"But Reece baby, come on, it's just me and you here," she ran her fingers up and down his arm seductively.

"NO!" That's it, I needed to intervene.

"Reece, baby, are you c-coming back to b-bed I'm getting c-cold without you," I went over next to him, wrapping him into a hug. He accepted almost straight away. I couldn't help but feel safe, and warm.

"In a minute River," he said, keeping an arm securely around my waist, whilst we both turned to face Kylie.

"Guys, ye can give up the act now," she laughed.

"What act?" I asked so innocently.

"Kiss, if yer really together, then kiss," she shrugged, pretending to look at her manicured nails.

"Why?" Reece straight away asked. "Why should I kiss her?"

"I've to go," I said, suddenly breaking from Reece's grip and heading outside to the night air.

"RIVER?" He called after me, "WHERE ARE YOU GOING?" He shouted again.

I didn't answer, I just kept running. Why? I don't know. I needed air, fresh air. I headed straight for the forest, running as fast as I can. After a few minutes I slowly began to run out of breathe, and my legs began to get sore, so I slowed down, soon coming to a stop. Once I sat under the big thick tree, I cried. I cried because of how ugly I am, how skinny I am, how I have nothing good about myself. I cried because I was a nobody.

•~•~•

"River?" A hand gently touched my shoulder, I knew that voice. I looked up from my position, I was bewildered. It was my mum.

"M-Mum." I continued to gaze at her, lost by her beauty. I couldn't believe it was my mother.

"Don't cry River," she said, placing a finger where a tear was and wiping it away. "You're beautiful."

"N-no mum, I'm not beautiful," I said, looking down at my arms.

"Why aren't you?" She asked, sitting down next to me.

"Because," I paused for a moment to think about it, "because just look at me, my big blonde curly hair, a silly dimple in my cheek, just a skinny frame, no curves or anything." I knew I could feel the tears beginning to start again, but I held them back.

"P-please come home mum," I choked.

"I love you sweetie," she said, and then disappeared into thin air.

"I love you too mum," I whispered, putting my head in my arms.

•~•~•

I opened my eyes slowly, to see I was now in my room and the light was shinning through the window. Was everything just a dream?

"River!" Reece exclaimed, then gave me a hug.

"Everything ok?" I asked slowly.

"I found you, in the forest, I couldn't wake you so I carried you back. Kylie's gone home today now, and were going home in 3 days," he seemed so jittery and happy, what?

"Oh," I muttered, then sat up rubbing my sleepy eyes.

"You're beautiful," he suddenly blurted out.

"But you just do not want to kiss me," I said, getting out of the bed and heading towards the door.

"Wait!" He grabbed my hand, and spun me around so we were now face to face.

"Wha,-" I was cut off my his lips meeting mine. I immediately kissed back, wrapping my arms around his neck. His hands remained on my waist throughout the amazing kiss, it was beautiful. Once we broke apart he stared into my eyes, then smiled. A genuine smile.

"Please go on a date with me?" He said, bringing me closer to him.

"Of course I will," I said, giving him a massive hug.

"I like you River, a lot more than I should." He moved a strand of hair so beautifully from my face.

"I like you too Reece."

"I know," he winked at me so fast, if I blinked I would have missed it.

Wow.

I am so whipped.
