Summary: What if things were different? (Part 6)

Foo Fighters - The Pretender

Riley stared at her best friend in disbilief. She walked back and forth feeling the walls closing down on her with every step she took. Maybe this was a good thing, right? Yeah, yeah, it was probably good. But she did it without asking Riley first! Riley felt the heat coming back one more time.

-How could you Kai?? -Riley snapped pacing furiously.

-Ri, stop, you’re going to make a gutter on the floor!

-How could you? - She rose her hands and clunched her hair

-He said yes... - Kai laughed earning a hatefull stare from Riley - It’s not my fault - she added innocently- I called to know if you were coming, how on Earth would I know you’d left your mobile at the library? How would I know he had picked it up?

-But it was your idea to ask him to meet me up at the coffee shop!!

-At least I didn’t set you up at the bar! - Kai shrugged - Plus I didn’t tell him I knew who he was... - she smirked - I just asked him how he got your phone and he told me.

-Aggggghh - Riley screamed throwing her hands into the air

-C’mon Ri, you like him, dive in!

-Quimin Rilee, yee lik heem - Riley mocked talked as she angrily left towards her room. 

She hated Kai right then, she thought as she yawned, but now she needed some rest. She could continue to hate her the next day.

Although Riley was feeling much more confident after  sleeping it out, she was still mad at Kai for her unsisterly behaviour, so she promised to make it up for Riley.

-I’ll do your hair!

-Why don’t you better get off it?

-Ha ha Ri.

-It’s a coffee/pick up my mobile/made up set up, I’m going to look riddiculous!

-Trust me, you’ll look natural as hell! 

-What’s more natural than this? - she smiled gesturing at herself.

-This is the only way I know, or want, to make it up for you. It’s going to be easy-breezy lemmon squeezy - Kai babbled as she was holding a bobbypin on her mouth.

-Try difficult-difficult lemon difficult! - Riley sighed 

-You said it yourself, it’s only picking up your mobile and having a cup of yumm steamy coffee, you’ve done worse. Now stay still or I’ll pin your scalp!

-That’s reassuring! - she laughed - Nah, I’m ok, I’m cool. Drake’s just a classmate. Right?

-Right. Voilá!

Upon arriving at the coffee shop, Riley scanned the area for him. However, he hadn’t arrived yet, so she sat down at her favourite table by the window overseeing the park.

It was rather chilli, so she took off her coat, beret and scarf.

If Drake didn’t show up it’d be ok too, she thought feeling confident. It hadn’t been a while since she went to the coffee shop to unwind a bit. She’d been so hung up on college that she had forgotten a bit about herself.

She ordered a macchiato and a connamon roll, and took out a book to kill some time.

She didn’t know how long it had been, but it couldn’t have been too much since the waiter hadn’t fetched her order yet, when she heard someone clear their throat. 

She looked up. Sunbeams reflected on the window creating a sort of halo on the man smiling down at her, just like a movie scene. It took her a full minute to realise it was Drake.

-Oh hi! - She beamed

-Sorry I’m late! - He pulled the remaining chair back -  May I sit?

-By all means, sir - Why would she say that?

Instead of sitting in front of her, he moved the chair to one side, sitting next to her, bumping his leg against hers.

- So I’ve heard your head is on the clouds - He joked as he waved at the waiter.

-Heh! I suppose I was a bit distracted.

- Yeah. Well, I thought I had seen you, but when I looked again you had dissappeared. That’s when I saw your phone lying on the table. 

-Oh!

-Yes, I was there with my sister’s friend, Kiara. She was here visiting us, so as my sister was kind of DOA, I offered her a tour. Plus, I needed some books, so win-win. - He bumped her leg once more.

-Well I needed some information about this country, Cordonia, I had never heard about it, and it’s one of the remaining European monarchies, and I have like zero information on them.

-That’s because you haven’t searched in the correct place yet!

-Yeah? - she cocked an eyebrow - and where’s that?

-Right here - he smiled pointing at himself as he bumped her leg with his - I’m from Cordonia! - he laughed at Riley’s confused face - my dad actually was in the king’s guard. - he smiled sadly - He actually was KIA.

-Oh, I’m sorry - Riley said reaching for his hand

-It’s Ok - he squished it - It’s been a long time ago.

Right then the waiter arrived with their orders.

-I don’t know why I told you about that though - he laughed

- How so?

-I’m not usually this open with people - he smiled bumping her leg once again - but there’s someting about you that prevents me from shutting up.

Riley blushed slightly and took a sip of her coffee.

Talking to him felt incredibly natural too. She was sharing details of her life only few people knew. Far from feeling selfaware as she thought she’d feel, Riley actually enjoyed herself around him.

Riley told him about being the very first woman to attend college in her family, about the scolarship and why being there was so important for her. 

She learnt his mother was American, that he had a sister, Savannah, that  and that they went to that college escaping from the courtly life back in Cordonia.

-So if you need any help with the Cordonian monarchy paper, I’m your man.

-Oh my, that’s a very smooth move. - She teased

-See? I’m that good. - he winked.

They stared at each other’s eyes for a moment. Drake’s eyes sparkled in a way she had never seen before. 

Suddelnly he looked away and a very confused Riley found her coffee extremely interesting.

After a moment of silence, in which Drake opened and closed his moth several times, he actually said

- Can I ask you a question?

-Shoot!

-Why have you been avoiding me? I see you staring at me from timeto time, and I know you bolted from the library as soon as you saw me...

Riley, who was sipping her macchiato, chocked, spilling some coffee from her nose.

Drake bursed with laughter, making her blush violently.

- I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have laughed - he said trying to contain the giggles  - I made you stain your sweater. - He leaned in trying to clean up her mess with a napkin.

- Nice -  Riley laughed taking the napking away from him.

- So...?

-I felt kind of embarrassed, ok? - Riley snapped blushing even harder

- Because you sat on my lap the very first day of class? - Drake chuckled clearly relieved

- Wouldn’t you feel the same way?

-Probably - he shrugged- but I wouldn’t have run away and stare from the distance like a creep - he smirked bumping her leg again.

-I’m not a creep... and what’s with the bumping?

Drake’s face froze in a surprised gesture as he blushed violently.

- I... I kind of like you - he mumbled freezing Riley this time.

-Well - she added some minutes after - I kind of like you too.
