Riley~•~As I walked into class, I held my head high. The stares started the moment I entered. Whispers buzzed around me but I pretended like I didn’t know. I ignored them. At least I tried. My eyes scanned around the classroom and I let out a relieved sigh when I saw Liam sitting at our usual spot. I clenched my jaw as I walked over to the seat near the window. “Hey,” I said as I settled down beside Liam. Liam was my friend I met on my first day of college. Most people didn’t like me because of my status but Liam made being in class bearable. Most of them still flashed fake smiles at me but I always heard the cruel things they always said about me. Either way, I didn’t care about them because I couldn’t let myself get bothered by the opinions of strangers who knew nothing about me. “I heard what happened yesterday, are you good?” He asked, his voice barely above a whisper.I nodded my head. “Sure, it’s not like it’s the first time I’m being harassed by the paparazzi,” I added

Mason ~•~ I was having car issues in the morning, so I ended up going late for my class. The professor had already started the lecture when I walked into the class. As I made my way to my usual spot, I scanned through the crowd to see if I could find Riley. My lips curled into a small smile when I saw her sitting close to the window. But my happiness was short-lived. Normally, Riley would smile, maybe even wave, when she saw me. But this time, she deliberately avoided eye contact with me, her gaze remained on her notebook as if I didn’t even exist. I felt a little bit hurt but I continued walking to my seat and acted like nothing happened. As I settled down in my seat, I tried to focus on the lecture but my thoughts were elsewhere. Had I made a mistake? Maybe she didn’t like the gifts I sent to her. I should’ve known better. Or maybe I should’ve thought of something else. Or nothing at all. I could only hope I hadn’t ruined my chances with her by sending her those g

Mason Craig ~•~I sat in the living room after dinner, waiting for my parents to arrive. I found it weird that they hadn’t returned from work because they always came back in time for dinner. The sound coming from the television was too loud and I had no idea when the front door creaked open. As I looked up, I saw that my parents were already back from work. “Did you end up fixing your car or did you drive a different car today?” My father asked as he settled down beside me. I turned down the volume of the television and turned to them. “I drove another one today,” I answered, my voice strained. “We had a long day today, I hope you enjoyed dinner without us.” My mother chimed into the conversation and I responded with a nod. I wanted to talk to them about something. I knew they were going to be defensive about it, but I couldn’t help but ask. “What’s the name of the company that you guys recently tried to sabotage?” I asked, raising a brow at them. Their brows knitted into a f

Riley ~•~“Hey, Riley. I haven’t seen you around in forever.” Brittany said as she strolled into the room. “Are you good?” She asked, tossing her bag on her bed. Brittany was barely around in the room, so we hardly saw each other since I was now attending classes from the house. “Yes, I’m good,” I responded, zipping my bag. “Are you good?” I asked, just to be polite. “Sure,” Brittany replied. Our conversation was brief, just like always. Brittany wasn’t the chatty type. I wasn’t the chatty type either. Unless it was with my close friends. Brittany had other friends outside our room, and she always left to meet them. We weren’t friends but we were cool. As usual, she just dropped something off and picked up something new, then she left the room. After she left, I turned over to Amelia and Harper who were assisting me in packing some of my stuff. “I forgot to mention, I agreed to go on a date with Mason, are you happy now?” Harper’s eyes lit up in excitement and Amelia squeale

Olivia ~•~“Everyone is already at the venue. I’m afraid I’ll leave without the three of you. I can’t be late because of you guys.” My frustration was just simmering below me as I darted between the kids' rooms. I had specifically told them to be ready before ten in the morning. But it was time to leave and they weren’t still dressed up. A lot was going on in my life and I was already stressed enough. I shouldn’t have even agreed to drive to the church with the kids because they had a track record of taking forever to get ready whenever we had somewhere to be. I would have just left with Alexander and Caroline. Then one of the drivers would have driven the kids to the church. I decided to take a deep breath and calm my nerves down. It was a sensitive day for me and I didn’t need to add more stress to my life. “You all have exactly ten minutes to meet me downstairs. Or I’ll leave without the three of you and you’ll find your way there.” I yelled loud enough for Riley, Rowan, and

Riley ~•~As we sat down and listened to the sermon, my eyes darted between the casket beside the pulpit and the pew where my mother and her siblings sat. I knew how much Grandma’s death affected my mother, even if she didn’t show it. “She was crying earlier today.” Rowan’s voice replayed in my head. I barely saw my mother crying, even though I knew she had been through so much. She never let us see that part of her. While growing up, she always made sure to be secretive about her struggles. Initially, my brother and I didn’t understand why she kept so much stuff away from us. But as time went by, we realized she just did it to protect us. My mother didn’t want to worry us with any of her burdens. But now that we were older, I wanted to know everything that was bothering her. I wanted to be there for her. For the first time since we walked into the church, my mother smiled as she turned back to greet Maya. I let out a relieved sigh as I watched her lips curl into a smile. When

Riley Burke ~•~As we got back home, I headed out to my room to have a long and relaxing shower before my dad came back home. I had no idea what he wanted to talk to me about and I was nervous. Whenever my dad wanted to have a serious conversation with me, Rowan was always involved. But this time around, he didn’t ask to talk to Rowan. He wanted to speak to only me. I could only hope that I wasn’t in any trouble. I dropped my bag on the bed and changed out of my clothes. Then I headed to the bathroom and turned on the faucet to fill up the bathtub with warm water. When I was satisfied, I slid into the bathtub. I let out a relieved breath as the warm water poured over my skin. After all the day’s stress, it was exactly what I needed. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the warmth, living in the moment. A few minutes later, I washed my body and rinsed off the soap. I stepped out of the bathtub and dried my body with a clean towel. When I was done, I changed into a comfortable outfit. J

Mason Craig ~•~My parents were giving me the silent treatment. According to them, I accused them of being terrible people. It was funny because they didn’t even try to hide what they were doing from their children. But now, they were trying to make it seem like my accusations were baseless. I genuinely didn’t care if they were speaking to me at the moment, they were going to get over it. My only concern was to find out if they were actually the ones behind the rumors about Riley’s father’s company. Tristan agreed to help me check but he hadn’t gotten back to me. Tristan was always busy and even if I knew he would respond to me if I reached out to him, I didn’t want to disturb him. I just decided to wait until he was ready to speak to me. I was having dinner with my parents but they didn’t even look at me. It was getting uncomfortable, so I decided to hurry up with my food and head back to my room. They were going to come around sooner or later. As I settled down on my bed, I

Alexander Burke ~•~I was surprised when my publicist sent me a screenshot, showing me that Riley was responding to the trolls on the internet. I didn’t blame her for exchanging words with them because what they were saying was cruel and hurtful. But I always told my kids to ignore the people on the internet. I even advised them to stay away from social media, but I knew that part was impossible. I decided to have a talk with Riley about it after we were done with the funeral. When I returned to the house, I called her to my room. “Hey, Daddy.” She greeted me with a warm smile as she walked into my room. Riley sat down beside me on my bed. “Riley, how are you doing?” I asked. I was genuinely concerned about the kid’s mental health. They were going through so many things and I wanted to make sure they were doing well. Riley shrugged. “I’m holding up. Are you good?” She asked, scratching her head. I nodded. “Yes. I wanted to talk to you about something.” I reached out to her han

Riley Burke ~•~“Stop asking because I’m not coming with you.” “Riley, please.” “Rowan, no. I don’t have any class until noon and I’m not ready to wait in the dormitory. I’ll just go with one of the drivers later.” “I’ll do anything you want, please.” Rowan had classes in the morning but I didn’t have any class until noon. Normally, Rowan would be pleased to go to school without me, but this time he had his girlfriend over and they got into a big fight. They were meant to drive back to school together but he wanted me to accompany them because he didn’t want the drive to be awkward. I always asked that he should stop putting me in the middle of their problems, but he never listened to me. It was always like this with them. They’ll have a big fight, ignore each other for a while, then make up again. Even when I mistakenly suggested that they part ways, he made it seem like I was just being a hater. I liked Belle, even if we weren’t exactly friends. I liked her as my brother’s g
