I was looking through my phone when I heard a knock on the door. Hm! I wasn't expecting anyone, so who could it be? I wondered as I stood up and walked towards the door, rubbing my tired eyes. When I opened the door, there stood Nurse Sam on the other side, with a small smile on her face."Hey Leo, how are you?" Nurse Sam asked, her worried gaze fixed on me."I'm fine, nurse Sam, just a little tired," I answered"You need to get some rest before you crash. Don't make me sedate you, Leo,""I promise, Nurse Sam, I will; what brings you here?""Oh, I almost forgot, there are some detectives in the waiting room who said they want to see you.""Oh, what are their names?""I believe they said their names were Sloan and Adams; I wonder what they want?" Because they don't look like locals,""You and me both, Nurse Sam, thanks, I'll go see them now.""No problem, kid, let me get back to work and remember to get some sleep," she said as she walked away, leaving me to my thoughts.What do they
I kept the letter a secret from Leo because it wasn't important, and telling him would only add to his worries, so I tore it up and soaked it in water before throwing it away.Even if the letter was gone, what Ford mentioned in the letter was still bothering me; what did he mean when he said Dalton was no longer a problem? I was buried in my thoughts as I glanced out the window when the door creaked open and Detective Adams and Sloan entered the room; judging by their demeanour, I knew something was wrong."Let's talk in the waiting room," I said as I exited my mother's ward and made my way to the waiting area, detectives Adams and Sloan following close behind, we took our seats in the corner of the waiting room, before Detective Adams started speaking."Austin," Detective Adams began, her voice kind yet solemn. "We have received an update on the case."My heart skipped a beat as I focused my attention on her. "What is it?"Detective Adams exchanged a glance with Sloan before continu
The last few weeks have been eventful, Leo and I started dating, I went to my first party but ended up being thrown into a pond, I almost died, Austin's mother woke up, and I finally stood up to Diana for the first time even if there would be consequences, it felt so damn good, I won't let them treat me like trash any longer, I've had enough.I was getting ready for school, so after getting out of the shower, I changed into a blue off-the-shoulder blouse, black leggings, and my black Converse.When I was satisfied with my appearance, I left my room and headed to the kitchen. Stephen was sitting in one of the dining chairs, while Sophia was cooking breakfast in front of the stove, giggling at something he said."Hey guys," I murmured as I took a seat next to Stephen, who was eating an apple. How ironic."How are you, Athena? It's been a while," Stephen said, smiling. "Good and you?""I'm doing well, how is school?" "Good, I guess. How is work?" "Good, I guess," Stephen said, repeat
"I'm going to scream Dylan, let me go right now," I pleaded, my voice shaking with terror. "Go on, no one is going to hear you, Austin isn't around and lover boy is a little busy with James and Tom, so it's just you and me, little mouse" Dylan said, taking small steps towards me, I took steps backwards till my back met the wall, then he caged me with his hands when I tried to run, "Get away from me, you sick bastard," I yelled, my gaze darting around the room, trying to find a way out of here."Has lover boy fucked you yet? I'm sure he has, I know I would have; I told you at the beginning of the year that you were mine, but you still let that idiot touch you, and that pisses me off" Dylan said, anger evident in his tone as he stared at me."Fuck you!""I'm upset little mouse and you won't like me when I'm mad,." Dylan murmured his hands slid to my neck, his enraged gaze never leaving mine as he wrapped his hands securely around my neck squeezing tightly. I struggled against him, but
It's surprising that it's already the end of the school year, and I've done so many things in the last few months that I'm proud of that I've done my entire life. I stood up to my bullies and am now secure in my own skin, no longer frightened to go around school.All of this was made possible by the new additions to my small family; I don't think I would have had the confidence to do all of this without them, they were my knights in shining armor and I love them to the moon and backAs usual, the end-of-the-year basketball game was held in Anwood, so I dressed up in the team colours of blue and black because Leo was playing today, and I wanted to support him in some way.It was his first official game in Riverview, and I wanted it to go well, so I was hoping they would win because It's a very important game of his high school basketball career and given how nervous he's been about it, I wanted to show him that I cared."You guys act like you'd die if you didn't see each other every day
The semester was finally over, and I couldn't wait for the holidays, so I could spend time with Athena and the guys at her uncle's ski resort in Mount Everett, where we will be having the time of our lives. But I think her uncle had ulterior motives when he invited us to spend the holiday there because Athena told us he wanted to meet with Austin, Shane, and me to find out who she has been hanging out with. I don't blame him; Athena was wonderfully kind and easy to take advantage of; she sees the good in everyone even if there isn't. The year wasn't perfect, but it provided me with the opportunity to meet Athena, Sophia, and Austin, the most important people in my life after Shane.They have made my life more enjoyable than it was when we lived in New York. Shane is always cheerful when they are around, which makes me glad because he was a totally different kid when my parents were still alive, sad, and closed off from everyone but me.With Athena and his overprotective elder broth
Hello everyone. you have come to the end of book 1 of the Riverview bully series. Thank you for giving my book the chance, and I hope you still give me the chance to continue sharing what I love doing with you all. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ RETRIBUTION (COMING SOON) REVENGE IS JUSTICE ATHENAIt's more karma than vengeance, but it counts. Dylan Thompson, James Miller, and Tom Sanders will pay for what they have done to me. I'm going to make them suffer, I'm going to make them wish they'd never met me; they always say save the best for last, so my vengeance on them will be my grand finale, but the others will have to pay first. LeoWe can't always run away from our past; I thought everything was behind me, but I couldn't outrun my demons; they've returned to get me, and it's only a matter of time before they catch up with m
An hour ago.."Hello little mouse, it was so easy to get you up here, all I had to do was take that morons phone and text you, and you came running to him without any questions asked," Dylan said, his breath fanning my neck as I attempted to remain still so he wouldn't notice how afraid I was."Where is Leo? If you don't let me go, I'm going to scream bloody murder," I managed to say, but my trembling voice betrayed me, showing my fear."Oh, don't worry about him, little mouse; after all, when his old friend is finished with him, your boyfriend will wish he hadn't crossed me," Dylan said, and I could tell he was smiling."What are you talking about? You sick fuck, where is Leo?" I cursed, causing his hold on my shoulders to tighten."If he ignored you like everyone else and minded his own fucking business maybe you wouldn't have even thought of fighting back then and now" "Shut up! You're sick, you made my life miserable" "Ever since he arrived, you have been acting like you own the
