Time for Goodbye``Riley

[Riyann Servansikk]

He let me change the topic? Really I hadn't expected it, but if it hadn't happened I would've just kept right at trying to. I suppose what I said hit home and now he was worried about his dear lovable Arden.
"She knows." I added with a small shrug as he stepped closer to me and I matched that by stepping backwards. I wanted out of here and now. "I warned her." I stopped this time and instead took a step closer towards Riley. "She just didn't think I'd be out so soon." My glare once again fell right back on Riley.
He was defending her. Did he finally notice what I could do? Did he care about her that much? Or was it just because they were 'friends'?
"If you don't want to give her the warning I'm sure she'll pick up on it." I add with another small shrug.

[Riley Pearson]

I stared at her for a moment, unsure of what to make of this, realising she once again didn't answer my question. That, and I wasn't sure how I was going to get back on the topic of my sister, but right now I was extremely concerned for Arden, so I guess I would just worry about that in a little bit.
"Leave her alone." I said staring at her, "She has nothing to do with this."

[Riyann Servansikk]

I laughed, shaking my head faintly, though not enough to let my hood fall backwards.
"You don't even know what this is. You haven't for so long Riley." I said, frowning faintly now as I looked at him. "Sometimes you really are clueless. Sometimes you try and change what things are because you don't know what they are." Sighing faintly I looked up at the sky, the grey clouds hanging tight over the sun at the moment.
"Arden will get what's coming at her and there is nothing you can do about it." I said, shrugging simply now, smiling faintly.

[Riley Pearson]

I was really wondering how I loved her so much. Was she really this sick? I think that maybe she was more of a deatheater than she originally thought she was.
"Maybe I've been clueless because you never told me anything." I said back to her, shaking my head slightly toward her. "Please, leave Arden out of this... take her out of it, whatever." I added, wondering if I sounded desperate or not. I was pretty sure that I sounded at least faintly desperate.

[Riyann Servansikk]

How many awful things were going through his head about me now? I didn't know and I wasn't sure if I wanted to know. Least I hope that he won't think so badly of things now.
"Because what I didn't tell you, you didn't need to know. Like now. This is between me and Arden." I said, countering what he had told me just a moment before. "Why? What is she to you?" I asked, hoping he'd answer, I wanted to know, needed to really, because I was still in love with him and he was probably in love with her. This question, I'd been waiting to ask, not standing not knowing. I didn't let it show though, the need for me to know. I couldn't, I didn't want to be so desperate, unlike him he was sounding quite desperate. I didn't need him to know my weakness.

[Riley Pearson]

I ignored what she said first. About it being between her and Arden. I didn't really know what to add to that and she probably would just say basically the same thing back to me again anyway.
She asked me what she was to me and I paused for a second. A lot more than what you are. I thought to myself, biting the inside of my cheek so I wouldn't say it outloud. Even though, techincally, I think that was a pretty good answer. "She's my best and pretty much only friend I have left." I answered to her, wondering if I should say anything else. Really, I didn't even know what me and Arden were so I couldn't really answer that fully anyway.
June looked over to me, actually, she looked over to me almost at the same moment I thought what I did. Maybe she could read minds too. That's just great.

[Riyann Servansikk]

He ignored the first thing I had said and I rolled my eyes faintly, now waiting for him to answer me second and more important statement. What was she to him. I was ready to let whatever he said break my heart and not let it show.
Hah.
"I don't believe that's the end of it." I said, shaking my head. Why was I so intent on letting him hurt me? "I really don't and maybe you should think about making more friends then." I add, a shakey laugh passing my lips now. He couldn't seriously expect me to believe they were on just friends. Apparently the girls knew something was between them, he sure as hell had better.
June was looking at Riley too and I just waited for another answer.

[Riley Pearson]

I shook my head faintly, looking away from her for a moment. I just.. I didn't know what was wrong with her. What was the big deal? She obviously didn't care about me.. unless she really hadn't kill Lil.. having that thought pop into my head again. Just great, now I didn't know what to say.
I shook my head again. "I want you to tell me about Lilian before I answer you." I Said looking over to her, still wanting to know what she meant by she didn't do it.

[Riyann Servansikk]

He didn't answer my question, no, now he was using that as a bargining tool on me to tell him about Lilian.
"I can't tell you anything other than what you know. Now you on the other hand can. Either that or else I'm going to leave and you might not see your precious little Arden ever again." I hissed, rather annoyed at this point. But that's alright, I was ready to do just about anything at this moment. Now as for the Lilian part I couldn't tell him. I mean, if she was alive, I doubt I'd be able to tell him, so there that was. If she'd faked her death with my help I wouldn't have been able to tell him anything other than that she was dead. He could deal with what I said and be able to wonder about billions of possibillities.

[Riley Pearson]

This was starting to get out of hand. I didn't know what Riyann was thinking, but whatever it was, I knew that it wasn't good. If something happens to Arden it would be my fault. Especially now that I'm talking to Riyann about this. She wasn't going to answer me so after pausing for a moment, I just shook my head a little bit. "Look, we're nothing." I said, keeping my eyes on her. Really this was true, we weren't anything. We weren't dating.. we hadn't even gone one date.
But we both did have feelings for eachother and we did kiss.. a couple of times, but that really was it. I doubted that we ever really would be anything.
"Riyann.. please." I paused for a moment, pretty much ready to beg her. "If you care about me at all, just please don't hurt her."

[Riyann Servansikk]

I shook my head faintly when he said that they were nothing. How could I believe that, especially when the twins didn't. Did he honestly want to lie to my face? Just like that.
"The twins don't see it that way." I snapped, glaring at him now.
How dare he lie to my face like that?
"I'll do whatever I fucking want." I spat, shaking my head a little. "Don't pull a guilt trip on me. Don't lie to me."

[Riley Pearson]

Right. So that's probably why she was making such a big deal out of this. I shook my head, closing my eyes for a moment before looking back to her.
"That was a misunderstanding.. they just.. we kissed and they saw it." I said to her, not really wanting to tell her that, but maybe it was best if I tried to explain. "We're not dating or anything." I said, hoping this would calm her down, but knowing her, she probably wasn't going to believe me. "I'm not lying."

[Riyann Servansikk]

"Misunderstanding, right?" I asked, raising an eyebrow towards him before snorting slightly. "Just like it was always a misunderstanding throughout our marriage?" I simply raised my eyebrow at him with that, slightly amused now, pissed off but not showing either of the amusement or anger.
"I don't care if your dating or not. Just now I know why you're protecting her so much." Imuttered, rolling my eyes. Because he loves her.
"Fine your not, still warn your little 'friend' if you want. It's probably best if June and I get going before they find me here. Wouldn't that be the greatest?" I asked, laughing a little.
I still didn't want to leave, I doubt that this conversation was over and that he'd want to let me leave either.

[Riley Pearson]

"No, that was me being an idiot." I told her shaking my head, "It doesn't really matter anymore now though, does it?" I asked keeping my eyes on her and shaking my head faintly.
"Why do you even care?" I asked raising my voice a little bit, walking a little closer to her. "We're not together, Riyann. You've hurt me more than you could imagine.. and Arden's always been there for me when you fucked up." I finished, wondering I took that a bit too far. Especially because that was something that I couldn't take back. "And I don't think I could forgive you if you do anything to her."
I just shook my head a bit, not bothering to comment on what she said next.

[Riyann Servansikk]

"Your right. It doesn't. Though maybe it should've been signal enough for me to fucking leave you." I hissed. Instead of it being this way. "Or maybe it never would've happened if only you let me push you away so many other times."
Why were we even talking about this? We should have plenty other opprotunities to have this 'conversation' later, and without June standing right there. Then again she said she'd help me hate him. Did I want to though? Or was taht just another way for me to run away from everything again?
"Why does it even matter?" I asked back after he asked why I even cared. "I know that." I hissed when he said 'we're not together'. I wasn't sure now if he was talking about me and him, doubtful, or him and Arden, more than likely. "I hope you rot in hell." I hissed, stepping back now, not even bothering to answer to what he said about not being able to forgive me if I did do anything to Arden. He couldn't forgive me for anything now as it was.
I fucking hate you Riley Pearson.
With that I stepped back again and turned around sharply, starting to leave.

[Riley Pearson]

"I don't know how I ever loved you." I said shaking my head, feeling a small knot form in my throat.
I shook my head again, hating all of this, hating the fact that I still couldn't manage to hate her. It was pretty close though, which is why I was wishing more than anything that she would do something else and make it happen. I wanted to hate her. For all of things that she's done and for everything she was probably going to do. Why couldn't I hate her?
"It matters because you're planning on hurting someone I love." I said a bit louder glaring slightly back at her. She started to walk away and I just left it at that, sitting on the ground where I was standing and running my hands through my hair.

June kept her eyes on me for a few moments longer, staring at me, before turning and walking after Riyann.

[Riyann Servansikk]

Those words, they hit me and they hit me hard, but I was over them, trying to ignore them, not wanting to talk back to him or anything, not to show him how bad they hit me.
So you do love her.
I kept walking now, afraid that I might break down crying if I stayed. Now I had to go back to the house, get the few things I needed and then I'd start carrying out my plans from there on.
And after that, well, then it would be for me to drop a little visit to Arden.
June, I could hear her walking after me now, and I blocked everything else out, determined to just get inside, find a pair of shoes and deal with everything else later.
One thing was for sure.
I wasn't ever going to be apart of Riley's life again. Of the twin's. Of Justin's.
And I'd never step foot in that house ever again.

[Riley Pearson]

I wasn't exactly sure how I meant what I said. Of course I loved Arden, she was my best friend, but if I really loved her, I wasn't sure about. But I'm sure that Riyann went ahead and assumed that I just loved Arden in a more than friendly way. That was easy enough to guess.
Even though she wasn't showing it, I knew that probably hit her pretty hard. Which is why I just sat on the ground, not watching as she walked away. I actually felt terrble for saying that. Really terrible.

June caught up with her and starting walking next to her. "... Are you alright?" She asked a moment later as they walked together.

[Riyann Servansikk]

Really, earlier when I had said I hoped he'd rot in hell, I couldn't even come close to meaning that. I'd only been mad. Earlier when I thought that I really did hate him, no, that was just me being mad, and angry, and.... Stupid. Tears threatened to spill past my eyes, to overfill so that they'd have to all just come out, but I wouldn't let them, not unless I was alone.
He had to hate me now. And if he didn't, he would. Either way he sure as hell didn't love me anymore.
So I'd do him the favor of staying away from him and our kids.
June was walking next to me now and I forced to keep my eyes away from her as I debated whether or not to answer her question. "I'm bloody well perfect." I hissed, looking over at her now, glaring faintly towards her.
Really I didn't mean to be like that towards her, I mean, she was only helping me and I sighed, dropping my eyes from her now.

[Juniper Hastings]

I looked away from her, closing my eyes slightly as she hissed at me. Hey, I was just trying to be nice. Maybe I shouldn't even try that around her.
I paused for a moment before just shaking my head faintly. "Fine."

[Riyann Servansikk]

I sighed softly and shut my eyes briefly before glancing at her again as we walked towards the house. "Sorry." I said, shaking my head faintly.
I have real issues.
"I dunno if Riley will turn me in, and if he does I dunno how safe you'll be." I mumbled, looking towards her. "So, uhm, just watch out?"

[Juniper Hastings]

I shook my head and waved off her sorry. "It's fine." I said looking over to her. "You have a right to be snappy, I think." I said nodding a little bit.
".. I don't think that he will.. I was reading his thoughts and I just.. he didn't seem like he was going to." I told her, shaking my head a little bit. "But yeah.. I will.. you better watch out too."

[Riyann Servansikk]

"Not with you." I said with a faint and humorless laugh. "You haven't really done anything, asides from help me." I add, shaking my head now.
I nodded faintly and then turned my head towards her again. "Uhm, I didn't know you could actually do that." I said with a faint laugh. Now I was going to have to guard my thoughts more around June. Just the fact that she could've picked up numerous things that would not be good if she knew. If anyone knew.
"And, alright, I will."

[Juniper Hastings]

"Well, right." I said shaking my head a little bit. "But I mean, what he said.. I'd be snapping at everyone." I said shaking my head a little bit.
"I keep things to myself." I said with a small shrug. ".. And I wouldn't worry, I haven't been reading yours.. for some reason." I shrugged.
"And good."

[Riyann Servansikk]

I bit my lip and looked down at the ground, at my bare feet as they hit against the sidewalk, instantly being reminded of the conversation I just had with Riley, and I didn't answer her.
"Right." I said with a slight nod. "And di d you mean with what he said, or what he was thinking?" I asked in a small whisper, biting my lip as I still avoided looking at her, just at the sidewalk.

[Juniper Hastings]

I looked over to her, slightly wondering what she meant specifically. "Wait, sorry?" I asked, wanting to be sure of what she was talking about. "What specifically are you asking about?"

[Riyann Servansikk]

I laughed faintly. "You said you'd be snapping too with what he said. Did you mean that? Or with what he was thinking?" I asked quitely, looking at her now.

[Juniper Hastings]

I shook my head a little bit. "What he said.. What he was thinking wasn't nearly as bad.. most of the time at least." I shrugged a little bit.

[Riyann Servansikk]

I nodded a little, though I felt a little concerned about the last bit, though I didn't say anything. It obviously wouldn't make me feel any better to know what he was thinking some of the times that it was bad.
"Right." I nodded a little and then looked up and started for the door of the house. The house I used to live in with Riley.

[Juniper Hastings]

I nodded slightly. "Well.. I mean, I highly doubt he meant anything.. just like you, you didn't truly want him to go to hell or anything, but you said it." I shrugged a little bit, following her up to the door.
