Lets Runaway from it all[open]

[Riley Banks]

You say you know just who I am
But you can't imagine

Riley glanced out of his window, as he changed into apir of shorts and a t-shirt, before taking a moment to find his sneakers and alce them up. He'd decided that he wasn't going to waste his day hanging around his house just because all his other friends were off do somethign else which left him stranded to try and figure out something worth doing. So Riley had decided that seeming as the weather was pretty good today that he would go out for a run, he had been getting a little bored of just working out in the house gym and thought a proper run would be good to do, at least that way he would be able to get some fresh air and be away from his parents whilst also working out, which happened to be one of the few things that was keeping Riley sane at the moment.

Grabbing his Ipod up, Riley placed it into the strap on his arm and slipped the headphones round the back of his neck, as he headed out through the garden, he knw that if he went through the front of the house he would get quized by his controlling father about were he was actually going, though lately after the massive fight between him and his dad, Riley a had noticed that his dad seemed to be avoiding him more and more now, instead foucusing on trying to control his little sisters life. Riley shook his head slightly as he jumped over the garden fence, he was trying not to think so much about all the family problems that he seemed to have been encountering lately. Standing now on the sidewalk, Riley let his blue eyes glance in both directions as he planned out his run in his head, he wanted to end up in the park, that had some good paths to run and he knew it was a pretty good distance fromt he house so it wasn't as completely easy run, but then again for Riley it wasn't particularly difficult either.

Hitting the play button on his ipod, Riley stretched his legs slightly to hopefulyl prevent straining the muscles, seeming as he hadn't run like this for awhile, he tended to be miore into weights and circuit training along with the kickboxing that he does. Taking a deep breath, Riley finally set off, his running fell into the beat of the music which was pretty fast, and as he ran, Riley counted the beats in his head as his feet hit the sidewalk. Riley made sure to keep an eye on anyone that was walking in front of him or heading towards him, he really didn't want to runs traight into someone that didn't seem liek a great thing to go and do. A drop of sweat ran down Rielys forehead, he had underestimated how hot it was otuside. Slowing his pace down for a moment, Riley sliped the t-hirt off that he had been wearing and held it in his hand, before he quickened his pace again, as he over took a group of kids that were walking to slowly.

Thirty minutes later, and Riley finally came to the entrance t the park, he stopped for a second and stretched out his arms and legs, before he started to jog slowly into the park, picking a random path to follow now. His mind was cluttered againw ith thoguths abotu his dad and about whether he shoudl really take up fighting like hsi dad said he should. The organized fighting at parties had been something that Riley had secretly enjoyed doing, but after the experience of nearly breaking his neck and paralyzing himself, Riley couldn't convince himself to fight liek that again, though what he told other peopel was that there was no one worth fighting, but he knew people were starting to ask questions it had been nearly two months since he had quit the fighting.

Riley sighed as he carried onrunning to the music, lately this was all that was keeping Riley from doing something stupid. As he was running, Riley hadn't really, bothered to look up infront of him, but this time he managed to to look up just in time and mange to stop, just before he ran straight into someone who looked like they were a little lost int here own thoguhts. Though jsut as he came to a sudden stop they seemed to look up and Riley stood there pulling his headphones out before looking back at the person standing just in front of him, "You need to look were your going" Riley said, his breathing was slightly heavy from all the running. He waited for the person to say something to him.

Jo lay in bed staring up at the ceiling. Her mind told her to go get up and do something but her body objected. She grabbed her cellphone and checked the time, it was close to noon. She groaned, why is it that she slept so late but felt so tired? Maybe because she stayed up until 1 in the morning? Like usual the mind always wins over the body so she reluctantly got out of bed. Her roommate was gone, again! She was starting to think that either a) her roommate lived somewhere else b)the person was a really busy person or c) Jo smelt really bad or made to big of a mess that the person didn’t want to hang around. Jo didn’t fret to much over it though because it was kind of nice to have the dorm to herself all the time. She heard all to many time people complaining about their roommate being too loud or too noisy. One girl had even said that her roommate holds a party in their dorm every night. She was sure that you could report that kind of behavior though if it affected someone’s studies.

She walked over to her computer and checked her message but it mostly consisted of junk mail like chain letters or advertisements. She clicked on the one from her cousin. She quickly typed out a respond before she forgot to do one because she often did just that. Once she forgot to mail in a bill that her mom told her to send in for her and she ended up costing her mom a lot of money. She started remembering her parents. She hadn’t left on a good note because her parents had refused to pay for college because she was going into a musical degree. Jo thought that it was immature and stupid to not pay just because of that but whenever she mentioned that to them, they blow up even more at her. The thing that really bugs her is that they paid for her brother’s college but not hers. It was like they were discriminating against her. Just at that moment her phone rang. She looked a thte caller i.d. and saw MOM on the small screen. Speaking of the devil. She tossed the phone back down. If her parents were going to be immature so was she. She wasn’t going to talk to them just like she was in middle school all over again.

She decided she needed a bit of time to think to herself and what better way to do that then a run through the park? She walked to the bathroom and grabbed the brush. She winced as she ran the brush through her snarly hair. She hadn’t bed heads and every morning she had one. She was jealous of those who could just wake up and go which included guys. She pulled her long hair up in a ponytail making sure there was no bumps. Then she rustled through her dresser pulling out some shorts and a tank. It was warm out so she knew that if she dressed any heavier she would be sweating. She applied deodorant and of course just a bit of make up. She didn’t look like she never tried. She grabbed her blue Ipod and left her dorm. She pressed play and the music started, the song track of her life.

She jogged down the stairs of the dorms and out to the sidewalk, she decided that the park was close enough that she would jog there. She set a rythem with her feet. Tap-tap Tap tap. She focused on the words of the song singing to it in her head but making sure she wasn’t mouthing the words because that would be embarrassing enough. When she reached the park she stretched her legs so she wouldn’t pull a muscle. Then she set off again. She really missed talking to her mom about her problems or just random stuff like they used to. Ever since they started argueing about her music and her life paths she hadn’t been able to do that. She knew that she had Harper to talk to but some things just needed to stay between a girl and her mom. It was a bond that nobody could break, just right now they were going through a rough spot. Hopefully it would all work out. She glanced up and her feet planted against the pavement in a sudden stop. There was a guy just inches away from her. She hadn’t been watching so she didn’t know that they were about to collide. Good thing he stopped and she looked up just in time. She pulled off her earphones just in time to hear his response. “ I could say the same for you” she responded but it surprisingly didn’t have any harshness to it. Her eyes were dancing, her breathing quick. Her muscles of her legs were toned but she still lost her breath when running. She wasn’t sure if it was appropriate to introduce herself since normal people would just say sorry and move on their way but Jo always loved meeting new people so she spoke up before he thought that her last comment was hostile “ I’m Kimberly but call me Jo” she said giving him a small that was innocent but not in a little girly way. Who was this guy? She was dying to find out.

You say you know just who I am
But you can't imagine

Riley wasn't a big fan of the fact that he had to sneak out of his own house, even if he was doing something like just going for a run, because he knew that his dad would try and find something wrong witht hat, and hey presto a massive argument starts and Riley ends up forgetting whatever he planned on doing because he would get so annoyed that he would just leave and have to go somewhere just so that he could calm himself down and to avoid doing anything stupid. He sighed slightly, as he jumped over the garden fence, and as he looked back at th ehouse he noticed his younger sister give him a slight wave, they had an understanding and Riley knew he could trust her not to tell their dad that he had gone out anywhere. He gave her a slight wave back, before he pushed the play button down, and took a moment to find the beat of th song that was blasting into his ears before he started running. Sometimes there was nothing better then running, and being on your own with your thoughts, it was probably one of the things that Riley liked most about running, that he was able to just think about everything that was going on and not get interrupted every five minutes by someone else.

Riley glanced up every so often as he ran down the familiar sidewalks heading for the park, he was glad that most people moved out of his way when they saw him, though he did have to dodge round a woman pushing a stroller who looked pretty determined to run him down if he didn't get out of her way, and well Riley didn't really want to have a confrontation with that woman she looked pretty angry about something, Riley's best guess was the screaming child in the stroller. Riley was glad that he was still able to run like this and not feel out of breath and tired, lately he'd been spending a lot of time at the gym focusing on kick-boxing,a nd not really doing a whole lot of Cardio vascular training, so this run he decided was the mark of a new fitness regime, seeming as he wasn't able to fight anymore he was going to try and tone down on the kick-boxing he did so that he wasn't tempted back into it all just like his dad wanted him too. Most dads after their son nearly broke his neck in a fight would refuse to let their kid back into fighting, but not Riley's dad he was dead set on convincing Riley that fighting was th one thing that he was good at and that he shouldn't give it up, well Riley had other idea's, letting out a frustrated sigh Riley shook his head slightly he didn't want to have to think about that anymore it got him to angry, and he just wanted to enjoy this run.

As he slowed his pace down so he could slip his top off, Riley let his piercing blue eyes glance around him again, just to make sure that he was still heading in the right direction. Keeping hold of his top in his hand, Riley picked up the pace again, as the song changed to a much faster track and Riley was intent on keeping up with the beat of the track, as he finally made it to the park. Riley forced himself to stop for a moment, just to catch his breath and stretch out his arms and legs so that he could avoid getting cramp in them later, from over working them. With his legs and arms stretched out, Riley set off again, picking a path at random, the park was pretty quiet which Riley liked it meant he didn't have t worry about dodging around people, or at least that was what he thought. the track changed again,a nd just as it did, Riley finally looked up and guessed it was a good thing he did when eh saw the blonde heading straight for him. HE forced his feet to come to an abrupt stop just as the girl did, and they missed colliding with each other by a couple of inches at the most. Riley pulled his headphones form his ears and let them hang round his neck as he looked at the girl in front of him, of all the days he had to nearly collide with someone it had to be today.

A slight smirk played across Riley's lips when he herd whatt he girl said back to him, "Ah I guess i kind of deserved that, sorry if i sounded rude" Riley said with a small smile replacing the smirk that had been playing on his lips. He knew that had probably been his fault more than hers. Riley took another deep breath and finally his breathing got back to normal, as his blue eyes looked to the girl as she introduced herself to him, he hadn't really been expecting that but it made him smile a little more, he was glad to see that she didn't seem to angry that or she was just really good at covering it up. "Okay, well its nice to meet you Jo, I'm Riley". Shifting on his feet slightly, Rileys finally took a better look at the girl, he didn't think he knew her from anywhere. "Again sorry for nearly colliding with you, got a little wrapped up in my own thoughts" Riley said as he ran a hand across his cropped blonde hair.

The day was gorgeous.It was sunny but not extremely hot which for Florida was a rarity. Usually it was just plain scorching out. That’s what made fall a well thought of season down south because it finally was relief of those hot summer days. Don’t get her wrong, she loved summer. She loved wearing shorts, tanlks, and flip flops everywhere. She loved lazing around not worrying about having to write an essay. She loved staying up all night and sleeping in all day, but who didn’t? Now that college started up, she was loaded with notes to write, essays to write, projects to finish. She was up to her ears in pencils that the eraser ran out of. She always grew frustrated at the short amount of eraser on the pencil. She always ran out and then the pencil was worthless because who wanted an erasless pencil. They might as well have a pen. She had to admit, having a laptop made it super easy to type up her essays. That was unless her computer crashed or something computers happened to do when important documents were almost finished. It is also really nice having a brother a year ahead of you in college to get advice and tips from either on homework or teachers. She couldn’t count how many crazy facts she found out about her teachers because of him like their gross habits or favorite pastimes.

She glanced around the park noting all the many groups there. First there were a group of girls oogling Riley since he had his shirt off. She found that quite hilarious since they looked like freshman maybe younger though she couldn’t argue. Riley was ripped but she wasn’t just staring at them like the other girls were though she had to restrain herself from just feeling them. “Do you ever just take off your shirt sometime and just count all the girls that look at you like you’re a god?” she asked just out of curiousity, She remembered one day that she had gotten extremely mad at her brother who achieved a hard 6 pack almost 8 pack easily while she did at least a million sit ups and crunches and did all the ab workouts imaginable and she still couldn’t get that six pack. It must be in male’s genres. She continued her search around the park there was an elderly woman feeding the birds some cereal, hmm that was different. Jo found some really strange people in every city she traveled to. They were everywhere! There always seemed to be that one person in every town that is just plain weird. Sometimes her brother will tease her by saying she’s that person in their town. Haha, not funny. Her and her brother were always joking around with each other. They were always trying to beat each other in jokes and comebacks since they both enjoyed making others laugh. Once her parents had said that all they had to do was put her and her brother on tv and they would make millions of dollars because they were that funny. Jo never thinks of herself as funny though no matter what.

She was relieved when he smirked and started talking. She had spoke without thinking before and was hoping that he wouldn’t blow up at her. She shrugged “ That’s okay. I know I should’ve been looking up. I just was busy thinking about other stuff” Her brown eyes gazed into his blue ones, whoa were they ever bright. They reminded her of the blue sky in the summer. The guy had an 8 pack and bright blue eyes? Man, he’s one lucky guy. “ It’s nice to meet you too though I’m glad we didn’t actually hit. That would’ve probably left a mark” she grinned seeing him shift his feet. She didn’t feel like just standing there either. She took a few steps away but turned her head back, raising a recently waxed eyebrow as if say ‘are you coming?’. When she felt him follow her she started walking at nice normal pace” Yeah whenever I run I always get caught up in my thoughts but that can be bad if running through a busy park.” She spotted a lemonade stand up a farther way tended by some little kids, awe. She missed having lemonade stands. She picked up her pace to a run. She threw her head back and laughed “ Come on!” she knew that he could easily keep up with her but she grabbed his hand and pulled him along with her. Her eyes sparkled with laughter as she doged between the people. She slowed when they made it to the stand she grinned at the little girls. “ Hi” she said sweetly pulling out a five dollar bill. She saw that they were also selling cookies there “ I’ll have two lemonades and two cookies please” she let them get the request ready. She handed them the bill and said “ Keep the change” she turned to Riley and handed him a cookie and a lemonade” If you don’t eat or drink that I might have to cry” she teased sipping at her lemonade as she continued walking slowly this time since she was drinking. Man, did that taste good.

You say you know just who I am
But you can't imagine

When he was finally out the house and started running, Riley had to let out a sigh if relief it felt good to be able to do this and escape just for a little while, he knew he'd have to go back to reality and other people soon, but Riley liked to running because it was just him and his thoughts with no distractions, and sometimes that was a good thing, to escape for a little while. He glanced up to the sky and smiled slightly it seemed he'd picked a pretty good day to escape and go for a run, he figured if he hadn't been running that it probably wasn't one of the hottest days ever, but with the heat being generated from the running, sweating was inevitable,a nd well so was him taking his shirt of really. Riley remembered an essay he was suppose to have written, but had long forgotten about, he knew it needed to be done at some point, otherwise his teacher would just land him in a load of detentions and Riley really didn't want to be doing detention.

Riley didn't mind school, but he just wanted to get it over and done with, it took alot of effort for him tog et himself to actually go there, it wasn't exactly Riley's favorite place in the world but then it beat being at home when his dad was around so Riley didn't tend to complain to much about it all. The park had always seemed like a good place to runt he few times he had passed through it, but Riley guessed he should have thought about hoe likely he would have been to collide with someone, he guessed then he might have picked another route. Though it seemed Jo wasn't so bothered that they had nearly crashed into each other, which made Riley happy because he wouldn't have liked to of had some crazy person start ranting and yelling at him for not looking were he had been going.

Riley noticed that Jo was glancing around the park, and his eye drifted over it momentarily before he brought them back to be looking at Jo, just as she asked him about taking his shirt off to see how many girls looked at him like he was a god. Riley laughed he couldn't say he had ever been asked that before, but to be asked by someone he didn't really even no amused Riley slightly, "Ahh you caught me out, though honestly no i don't take my shirt off for that it was getting hot" Riley smiled slightly as he looked at Jo, then to the group of girls that he guessed she was probably talking about. Riley guessed if he took his shirt of then he should have expected that people would have looked at him, but the thought had not occurred at the time he had taken it off. He was pretty happy with his body shape, it was from years of kick-boxing, weight training and various other sports, so it wasn't like it had happened over night he'd defiantly worked for it and now did alot to try and keep it the way it was, because getting abs like his wasn't exactly the easiest thing in the world to do. Riley laughed slightly again as he looked away fromt he girls and his attention fell back onto Jo, he decided he had picked the right girl to nearly collide with, she seemed extremely friendly and well there was the fact that she was pretty as well.

"Yeah, its pretty easy to get caught up in your thoughts when your running" Riley nodded slightly, he was glad that he wasn't the only person that got caught up in thinking about stuff whilst running, but he was making a note now that he needed to either look up more, or just not run places were it is likely that he will collide with someone because he doesn't look up and gets a little to caught up in whatever he is thinking about at the time. Riley looked back at Jo as she looked at him, an a slight smile played across his lips as he listened to what she was saying toh im now, "Defiantly would have left a mark and then i would have felt extremely bad, so yeah good we didn't collide" Riley agreed before giving Jo a proper smile now. Riley watched as Jo stepped away and wandered if she was going now, but then he saw her turn back to him and raise her eyes brown at him. Getting that she wanted himt o follow, Riley started to walk, his pace keeping easily up with Jo's as they walked.

"Its pretty easy to get caught up when your running, but agreed a park may not be the best place to run" Riley laughed slightly as he looked across at Jo as they walked. Riley saw Jo start to pick up her pace so that she was running again, and Riley glanced at her as she took hold of his hand. He started to run again to, following Jo to were ever it was she was now going. He laughed slightly as they had to dodge between people that seemed to give them slightly odd looks as they went past, though Riley didn't really blame them for that. When they slowed down and then stopped, Riley looked in front of him and saw the small lemonade stand, he was guessing this was what Jo was so happy about and that made him smile a little. He listened to her order the lemonade and cookies from the kids, before she turned and handed him one of the cookies and cups of lemonade. "Okay i will eat and drink, because i would prefer to not make you cry" Riley laughed slightly, as he drank a little bit of the lemonade, which was pretty refreshing especially after doing so much running.

Jo was close to her brother and since she hasn’t seen him in a while, she missed him. She missed his music advice that he used to give her frequently. She started thinking that maybe he had a new girlfriend or something that would distract him. She loved when he had girlfriends because then she could meet them and tell them all the embarrassing stories that would make her brother hit her for sure. She was his little sister, what did he expect. She remembered the time he first brought a girlfriend home. They had gone off downstairs to watch a scary movie and she had crept down quietly so that they couldn’t hear her. She snuck up on them and yelled boo and she had made his girlfriend literally pee herself. Her brother had been made at her for weeks for ruining his chances with her but every time Jo thought of that, she cracked up. I mean, who actually pees themselves? Yeah she felt extremely bad for the girl and how embarrassed she must have been but Jo had been nice enough to loan her a pair of pants so that she didn’t have to be more embarrassed by going upstairs and showing her parents the view. See, she’s not that bad of a sister.

Jo wasn’t one of those girls to really worry about their looks but still she liked looking good, it was something that came with being a girl along with boobs and hips. It was probably just the natural urge to impress or attract the opposite gender. In fact wasn’t that the whole point in life? Yeah you could have a high ranked job where you get paid millions of dollar but without love, the human being isn’t complete. She remembered the story of a woman in her late eighties had passes away and the love of her life died just a few days later even though he was perfectly healthy. The only reasonable reason for his death was a broken heart. Was it really that strong though? The word love? Divorce is a very true and active answer that love is hard to find. A person may think that they are in love so they get married but it turns out that they really aren’t meant to be. Perhaps it was the money or lust that attracted them together but Jo found divorce a sad thing especially since she babysat this couple kids and their parents got a divorce and they blamed themselves for it even though they were only a few years old and couldn’t possibly be the reason.

Jo glanced around again but it was easy to get distracted by his nice abs. See what those did to girls? She was tempted to tell him to put his shirt back on but decided against it. She knew she could take off her shirt to just her bra, it was practically her bikini top but she knew that he would consider her a bit s.lutty if she did so. She got mad that guys could take off their shirts and nobody cared but if girls did that, they were considered easy and s.luts. She thought it was ridiculous. Girls had it hard compared to guys by far. She laughed shaking her head “Sure, you just wanted to let the world now” she teased. Her head was light and she felt giddy. She was just high on life. That was normal for her. She pulled her ponytail tighter since it was becoming loose probably from almost colliding into him. A smile dancing on her lips “Yeah that would’ve hurt. I would feel bad too; it’s partly my doing too. Though I don’t think I would’ve left that big of a mark on you” she looked him over for at least the 20th time since they met. She just couldn’t help it. “Yeah I know what you mean. I can just let all my anger out on my parents by running” She thought back to the time her school counselor had given the whole grade a speech on how that instead of bullying people, you should take out your anger by participating in a sport. She was actually right, it worked like a charm.

After they had gotten their drinks and cookies she walked off down a path keeping a steady pace with his. She finished her cookie not feeling obligated to not eat in front of him like other girls might do to try and impress them when it was just plain stupid. Who wanted to hang around a girl who starved herself? It was unhealthy and kind of sickening to see. She took small sips of her lemonade, savoring it because she didn’t want it to be gone. “So are you still in high school? “She asked curious. He looked a little young but was bigger than her so he couldn’t be that much younger. Jo was never one who felt that she had to just stick with her grade. She had a best friend that was a freshman in high school and many other friends in high school. She just got out of high school herself so she felt as if she was still a part of their school. When she finished her drink she tossed the cup in the nearest trash. “So what about you? What do you like to do other than almost colliding with people when running through the park?” she was a friendly person and wasn’t going to let him leave her without at lease telling about himself. She just mainly enjoyed meeting new people.

You say you know just who I am
But you can't imagine

Running was a great escape from everything, and one of the things that didn't really require to much thinking about, well other than making sure that you breath properly, but really running didn't require all that much brain power and that was probably why Riley liked it so much, and also it was a good way to just clear your head for a little bit and forget about everything that was going on around you and sometimes Riley found that useful to do especially when he was having really bad days with his dad, which recently seemed to be happening alot more now that he had officially given up fighting after his accident. it didn't matter how Riley tried to justify it to his dad, his dad would just go on and on and think that he was right, so in the end Riley usually just left for awhile, and either went running to the gym or partying and lately it had been partying that he had been resulting too.

Riley guessed that at somepoint in the very far future that maybe someday he would get on with his parents, but well right now it seemed so unlikely, and all he wanted to do was get away from them and spend as little time as he could in the house, and so far that seemed to be working out pretty well he normally found something to do with his day, normally hanging out with friends and then partying later, though today of course everyone was oddly already busy so running was his only option left seeming as you didn't look like a loner if you were running because most people went running on their own.

Riley hadn't really thought much about taking his shirt off at the time it was just one of those automatic reactions for him when he started to get hot to take it off. He was fully aware that his body was in pretty good shape but this time he hadn't really been taking it off to get attention, though of course there had been times when that was the case but that wasn't today. It did make Riley think how easy it was to have people physically attracted to you, but it normally took a lot more then just physical attraction to have a real relationship, but it seemed that these days that people would abs ea relationship on how the other person looked before they bothered to even find out what the other persons personality was like, Riley wasn't exactly a guy that really knew all that much about real relationships, but he knew if he was ever to get himself into one and wanted it to even have a hope of surviving that he would try and get to know the girl a little better first, though Riley couldn't really see himself in a serious relationship at the moment, though there was always the small possibility he guessed.

Standing there Riley counted himself luck that Jo was a nice person because he knew that there were probably some people that if he had nearly collided with would probably be yelling their heads of a him, it had actually happened to him once and well Riley would be happy to never have that happen again. His blue eyes looked away from Jo for a moment, choosing to watch some people that were walking past them, though a few moments later his eyes returned to Jo as she teased him about the whole shirt thing. "Yeah well the world just needed to know" Riley laughed slightly, now he was probably going to end up hesitating every other time he thought about taking his shirt off in public because of Jo pointing out those girls hat had been looking over at him. Though for now he was good with it off he was still hot from the running and well it wouldn't be very attractive to put the shirt on and have sweat patches appear all over it that was just one thing Riley couldn't stand at all.

Riley nodded his head in agreement with Jo when she said about it probably have hurting if they had collided with each other, but that she would have probably not left a big mark on him. "Defiantly would have hurt a little, and it would have been my fault too, though i think i might have left a big mark and that would have made me feel very bad so its good we didn't collide" Riley said nodding his head slightly, he was defiantly going to start paying attention to what was going on in front of himw hen he was running. Riley smiled slightly as he herd what Jo said next about running was a way to let her anger out, "Thats exactly the way it is for me, gotta let your anger out some way and guess runnings a pretty safe way of doing it" Riley smiled, there were much worse ways to release anger and Riley had done a few of those like the fighting he used to get himself into but now he tried to find safe ways to get rid of the anger.

Riley held his cookie and lemonade and he followed Jo as she started to walk down one of the paths. he took a bite out of his cookie it tasted pretty good for a cookie of a stool. He watched people in the park again for a moment, before finally finishing the cookie and looking back to Jo. He was drinking his lemonade when he herd her question about high school. "Yeah I'm still stuck there, this is my senior year" Riley nodded slightly, he really could not wait to leave high school, it wasn't the most thrilling place on earth and well Riley just really wanted to leave and possibly leave Miami as well. "I'm gonna take a guess and say your in college, cause i haven't ever seen you around school" Riley said as his blue eyes looked over at Jo as they walked. He finished up his lemonade and placed the cup in the trash as well. Riley herd Jo ask what he did other than nearly collide with people in parks. "You know your just so funny" Riley smiled slightly before he thought about her question, "Um well i do a lot of sports, like kick boxing, surfing and of course running, I also like to party often and well anything that involves having a good time really" Riley answered, as he swapped the hand he was holding his shirt in.
