Visit with the parents(Addison)

[riley jean paul]

Riley had woken up that morning like any other day. When he said good morning to his grandparents they stopped him before he could leave the house. They told him his parents would be coming down for a visit today so they really didn’t want him going anywhere. Riley pouted and went into his room. This was such a horrible idea he really didn’t want to go through this alone so he picked up his phone.

“ Addison my parents are coming down for a visit today do you think you could be here with me when they do?” He asked her leaving a message on her voice mail. He really wasn’t fond of them and she would make him more relaxed and feel better. If she couldn’t make it he would be fine with that but he would be sad for their entire visit. “ So if you can make it please do” He ended the message and just laid there on his bed. He always dreded the visits with his parents because then it made him wonder why they couldn’t have just raised him.

He loved the life he had with his grandparents but he knew they were older so who knew how much longer he had with them before they left him. Then what would happen to him? Where would he live? He was sure Addison would take him in but family would be the best thing for him. He heard the door knock so he left his room hoping it was Addison unfortunately it was his parents.

She smiled at him and gave him a huge hug. He gave her a fake smile and hugged her back. His dad shook his hand with a smile and they walked into the apartment. Oh god when will this day be over he wondered to himself as he took a seat in the chair the farthest from them.

Addy enjoyed her sleep very much, so much that she ignored a call from her best friend. Unfortunately, the guilt of knowing a message was on her phone made it so that she couldn't get back to sleep. Dragging her lazy butt out of bed, Addison grabbed her phone from her desk and listened to the voicemail from Riley. Despite having listened to the message, Addy could still feel the guilt in the pit of her stomach. Riley really needed her and she had chosen to just sleep through his call! After tossing her phone on her bed, she quickly got dressed in a denim skirt and a light pink spaghetti strap top. Running a brush through her hair and tossing things in her bag, Addy ran out of her room and her house.

Quickly getting onto her bike, Addy picked up her speed and peddled as fast as she could until she got to Riley's house. Once there, she locked up her bike and knocked once on the door before letting herself in. She was over enough that his grandparents didn't mind when she did that. "Riley!" Addison called out as she went into the kitchen to get a glass of water. After biking the whole way to Riley's, Addy was out of breath and dying for a nice cold drink.

After getting her drink and not having heard from Riley, Addy wandered to the living room where she saw Riley and his parents sitting. "Hi Mr. And Mrs. Paul." Addison said as she took a seat on the armrest of the chair Riley was in.

(so, i'm on a tablet and have no clue on the word count...bare with me!)

Riley heard Addison come in and instantly felt better. He knew she would be there to relax him and help him through this. He had never asked her to come before but that’s because he used to leave and come back right as they were leaving but this time he wasn’t allowed to do that. He knew what his parents would think when they saw her. They would think that she was his girlfriend because they had no idea that he is gay.

Nor did he tell them either they weren’t in his life enough to share that information with. So his plan was to not speak if he could help it and if he did it would be simple one word responses. When Addison sat down beside him he kissed her cheek and whispered so quietly that only she could hear him “ Thanks I owe you” He said to her. His parents were talking to his grandparents about their most recent trip to Italy. Riley just sat there listening to them talk for what seemed like hours but when he looked at the clock it had only been five minutes.

It made Riley so sad sometimes that he had no desire to see his parents. But honestly they just basically abandoned him to be here whenever they felt the desire to see him again. “ So how have you been honey?” His mom asked him. “ Fine” Was his response. “ Is this your girlfriend Riley?” His dad asked him.

Riley nodded “ No” Was his response. He could’ve said that she was but he didn’t want to bring her into his drama anymore then he already had.

(Oh no worries you had about 260)

[addison lynn montgomery]

"No problem, you would do the same for me." She said softly as she shot a small smile towards Riley's parents. "I'm Addison, Riley's best friend." Addy said to the two people in front of her. For parents, they sure were clueless when it came to their son. Addison had known Riley forever and she couldn't remember ever meeting his parents until now. The only people in Riley's life that she could remember were his grandparents. They were there for every bump, bruise, and sickness that ever harmed Riley, and her for that matter. There were plenty of times that she had gotten hurt at Riley's house and his grandma or grandpa kissed it all better.

"How long are they around for?" Addison whispered to Riley when his parents were busy talking to each other. She didn't like seeing her best friend in the mood that he was in. Addy preferred the happy go lucky Riley that is around almost every single day. A person's parents are supposed to be the people that someone can be their self with and the two people sitting in front of Riley and herself, aren't those people. The two claiming to be his parents are only the people who conceived him. That's it, nothing more, nothing less.

"When do you think you're free to get out of here? You're too tense and need some fun to get these people off your mind." Addison muttered as she slid onto the floor and leaned against Riley's legs.

[riley jean paul]

Riley nodded his head it was very true Riley would do anything for Addison he had proved that so many times in their time they had been best friends. Riley hated how this day was going but so very happy that Addison was here to make him feel better. Riley whispered back “ Supposedly the entire day but if I have my way we’ll be gone before lunch” He whispered back to her. Riley knew that Addison was uncomfortable only because Riley was uncomfortable. If Riley’s parents were very welcoming and didn’t abandon him here just because they didn’t want him then maybe things wouldn’t be as award.

As Addison slid to the floor right at his legs he couldn’t help himself he rested his arm on her head like an arm rest. An idea hit him and he thought it was pure genius so genius in fact that his grandparents would believe him. “ Addison play along and we’ll be out of here within ten minutes” He whispered to her. Riley suddenly looked at the clock “ Oh shit I completely forgot I have a shift in ten minutes and there’s nobody to replace me” He told his grandparents giving them the look he gave them when he was honestly running late for work.

[addison lynn montgomery]

Addy didn't mind Riley leaning on her and using her as a table. She had leaned on him enough during their friendship so it only seemed fair that he got a turn. Feeling a breath by her ear, Addy jumped slightly and then nodded her head slightly when Riley told her to play along. She didn't know what she was playing along with, but if it got her out of Riley's parents sight, then she would be happy. "What! If you have work, then that means I have work! I must have looked at the wrong day on the schedule, crap!" Addison said as she jumped up. Despite Riley telling her to play along, she didn't understand that having to work was what she was going along with. Addy honestly thought that she had to get to work in ten minutes. "Our boss is going to be so mad if we're late and then I might get fired. This is not good." She said as she moved out from underneath Riley's arms and pushed herself up quickly.

The quick movement caused her to become slightly dizzy, but Addison didn't take the time to let her vision come into focus. She was in a hurry. "Come on Riley, we gotta go!" Addy said as she reached for his arm to pull him up, but instead ended up pulling herself down into his lap. "Stupid dizziness." Addy muttered while a blush rose to her cheeks.

[riley jean paul]

Riley looked at his grandparents the reaction from Addison would surely prove his point that he indeed had to “work”. Riley gave Addison his hand so he steadied her making sure she didn’t fall over. “ Well we definitely wouldn’t want that” Riley’s dad said with a nod of his head. Riley’s mom got up and gave him a hug “ We’ll see you soon honey” She told him and all Riley did was nod and left the apartment. Once they had been out of the apartment and far enough away Riley just let out a scream.

He had never gotten so worked up that all he did was scream afterwards. He needed to let out his anger but he only knew one way to do that. He ran up to a tree and repeadilty punched it. The blood was just dripping down his knuckles. He could no longer feel his hands but that didn’t matter to him he just eventually gave up and slid down the three trunk.

Riley looked at his knuckles and didn’t even flinch. He just pulled his legs up to his chest and stayed there thinking. He really hoped he didn’t scare Addison but he couldn’t control his anger.

[addison lynn montgomery]

After having been steadied by Riley, Addison followed him out of the apartment and down to the street level. She was surprised when Riley just started to scream and went over to a tree and started to punch it. He didn't stop and she could see that his knuckles were starting to bleed. "Riley, stop, that isn't going to help anything!" Addy said while grabbing hold of his arm to stop him. Looking down at his knuckles, Addison cringed, she never was one for blood. "You need to clean that up, it could get infected." She said, sliding down the tree to sit next to Riley.

"Come on, let's go do something, forget about your parents. Sitting here isn't going to do anything, so let's go get you all patched up and then go to the beach or something." Addy said, nudging Riley with her shoulder slightly, trying to get a smile out of him. She didn't like seeing Riley in a bad mood, she didn't like seeing anyone in a bad mood, but with Riley it was different. He was her best friend and it was her job to make him happy again. Addy knew that Riley would do the same thing for her if she was in his situation.

[riley jean paul]

Riley looked at her with tears going down his cheek “ I love you Addison you’re the best friend I could ever ask for” He said giving her a hug. He looked down at his knuckles again as they were starting to turn purple and shrugged his shoulders maybe it was a good idea if they cleaned up his hands. Riley pulled away from Addison “ Do you think I hurt the tree?” He asked her cracking a little smile. He knew she could care less about the tree and that he was her concern right now. Riley nodded his head and slowly stood up wiping away his tears off his face.

“ Want to sit at the beach and check out boys?” Riley asked her. He was slowly getting happy. He knew if Addison wasn’t here he just would’ve sat at the tree trunk for hours or until he got another urge to punch something else. “ My mission today is to find you a boyfriend” He told her with a wink. The longer he was out of the house the better so he was also thinking about actually going into work to keep himself busy but he didn’t want to work since he was still so upset.

[addison lynn montgomery]

Addison hugged Riley back, being careful of his bloody knuckles. She loved Riley, but not enough to come into contact with his blood. That was where she drew the line. Blood gave her the heeby jeebies and she just didn't want to deal with that at the moment. As Riley pulled away, Addy rolled her eyes, "I think the tree's fine. It still has its leaves and it's still in the ground." She said. Of course, leave it to Riley to be thinking about a tree rather than his knuckles that were bleeding and changing color. At least he was smiling though.

"Sure, the beach sounds fun." Addy said as she pushed herself up from the tree trunk. It seemed that going to the beach was becoming a daily activity for her and Riley. "Don't be too disappointed when you fail that mission. It's mission impossible when it comes to me finding a boyfriend." She said, laughing it off as if it didn't bother her. Addy wanted to know what it felt like to have a boyfriend, but she had written it off as something that she would have to wait for until after high school, maybe even after college. For all she knew, she would be single forever.

[riley jean paul]

Riley nodded his head “ I’m glad the tree is ok” He said giving her a smile. “ Don’t want to go to prison for beating up this poor defenseless tree” He told her shrugging his shoulders. Riley shook his head “ I don’t think it’s mission impossible” He told her honestly. “ Do you have your bathing suit with you or should we head over to your place and get it?” He asked her curious.

He didn’t actually have his shorts but all he would do was take off his pants and swim in his boxers. He knew better then to go back to the apartment. But he decided to put that out of his mind and only think about the day ahead and not what had just happened to him. Although there was one thing that puzzled him his parents said they would be seeing him soon they never said that they just said bye. He really hoped they had no intentions of coming back anytime soon.

He knew something was off though. He had no idea what but he knew something was happening and it was only a matter of time before he figured it out.

[addison lynn montgomery]

Addy just shook her head. She couldn't make Riley change his opinion, so it would be useless to try. "Fine, you can try, but it's just going to lead you to a dead end." Addison told him with a sigh. "My bathing suit's at home." She said as she unlocked her bike and started wheeling it toward her house which was located a couple streets over. Once she got home, Addy went directly to her room and started looking for her favorite bathing suit. It was just a simple one-piece, but she loved it. Unfortunately though, she couldn't find it. She asked her mom about it and was told that it was thrown away because it looked ratty.

Sighing, Addy took out her pale yellow bikini and quickly changed into it, putting a t-shirt and shorts on over it. "I'm ready." Addison said after she had packed a bag with sunscreen, a towel, a book, and some snacks. Her mother taught her to always be prepared, and that's exactly what she was doing. "Riley, one of your bathing suits was in my dresser, you left it here the last time we went to the beach." She said, holding out the swim trunks to him so that he could go change. It didn't matter that Riley was her best friend, she didn't want to see him in just his boxers.

[riley jean paul]

Riley followed her to her house. Even though he had been here so often he could pretty much get here in his sleep. When he was little he used to sleep walk so he would actually sleep walk to her house and sneak into her bed and just slept. He woke up a lot confused because he was in Addison’s room. He never thought her parent’s minded though since he never was a threat to her.

Well of course like any friend they had conflicts but it was minor stuff. Once they got in an argument about who was a better poster maker. Riley believed it was her and she thought it was him. Man what an argument that was they didn’t talk for a total of three hours. Riley pouted when she gave him his swim trunks.

“ Aww I don’t want to wear those” He said crossing his hands over his chest. “ I’d rather go in my boxers or just nude” He said giving him a wink. Riley liked putting images into Addison’s mind that grossed her out. She never had any intentions of seeing him naked which was good because seeing her naked would be weird too. It’s not that she was a bigger person or anything it’s just that he wasn’t into girls so it would freak him out.

[addison lynn montgomery]

Addison closed her eyes and shook her head with a disgusted look on her face. "Ew! Riley, why must you be so mean to me?" She asked when he talked about himself going to the beach nude. "You can go to the beach nude when you go to Europe. There aren't nude beaches in town so you're out of luck, and you're going to wear these," she held up his swim trunks, "and not your underwear! Just because I've known you forever doesn't mean that I want to see you in just your boxers." Addy said, ending her rant. "And I thought gay guys were different from straight ones." She mumbled, shaking her head again and throwing the swim trunks in Riley's face.

Leaving the room so that he could change, Addison went outside and sat on the front steps. The sun was beaming down on her and despite having only been outside for a couple of minutes, she was sweating. He better hurry up, it's too hot out here, I could die of heat exhaustion! Addy thought, knowing that she was being overly dramatic, but it was so hot out! Once they got to the beach, she might actually get in the water instead of just hanging out in the sand where she could keep her clothes on. Why did the weather have to be so cruel as to put her into a position that she didn't want to be in.

[riley jean paul]

Riley laughed and rolled his eyes “ Men are men Addison regardless if they are gay or straight” He told her crossing his arms pretending to be offended. It was very random that Riley got mad at Addy and she knew that so there was nothing wrong when he pretended to be mad at her. He didn’t see what was wrong with wanting to go to the beach nude but apparently she did. So he would respect her wishes and not be naked although he really did want to be naked. When she left him to change he dropped his pants.

He still didn’t fully understand why it freaked her out so much with the thought of being naked. But then again he would be freaked out if he saw Addison naked. It could be a jealous thing she could be jealous at how he looked. There that was what he was going to stick with in his mind. He left her room with his clothes in his hands since Addison had a bag so he had just planned on putting his clothes in there.

He was relieved that Addison was willing to do some stuff today to take his mind off of what had happened previously throughout the day.
