Riley's PoV:

"Who's this?" I asked Andrew.

No reply.

Andrew let the girl in and now we three are sitting in the living room. It was awkward to be honest. Andrew kept glancing between me and the girl. No one uttered a word.

Alex came down from his room and saw the situation in the living room.

"Oh, Abigali. Hi" Alex said.

"Hi, Alex." she greeted him back.

I just excused myself and went to meet Alex in the kitchen. It was suffocating in the living room.

"Hey, Alex. So how did it go with your secret admirer?" I asked him.

"I am meeting her tomorrow" Alex said scratching his head.

"Not so single pringle anymore" I said laughing.

"Oh! Alex you are blushing and you haven't even meet this girl" I said laughing.

"Shut up!" Alex said

"Well, who's this girl?" I couldn't hell but ask.

"Andrew didn't tell you?" Alex asked raising his eyebrows.

"About her?" I asked.

Alex nodded.

"Umm, No" I replied.

"That's Abigail Balasco. And that is all you will hear from me cause it's not my place to tell" Alex said offering me a cup of coffee he made.

"Ugh! You have made it more skeptical."

I said frustrated.

"I can't help you here, Riley. I am sorry. That's the bro code" Alex said giving me a tight smile.

"That's fine, I guess." I said to Alex.

Alex left to his room again.

I didn't know what to do. No one has uttered a word.

"Well, Andrew. Um, I got to leave." I said awkwardly.

Andrew just nodded at me. Huh, weird.

Cause everytime I say I am going to go, he would always finds a way to make me stay. Something's definitely not right.

"I will walk you to the door" I hear Andrew saying.

"Uh, I will talk you later, Riley" Andrew said kissing my cheek.

"Yeah" I said dryly.

I called Allie. She picked up in the second ring.

"Hey, girl! Can you meet me at Starbucks?" I asked.

"Yo, chica. Sure, I can" she replied.

I bought our favorite drinks and was waiting outside for her.

"Wow, I must have did some great things to you in the past week" Allie said approaching.

I didn't even notice her parking her car as I was in my own thoughts.

"Shut up." I replied rolling my eyes.

"Geez. Take a chill pill!" Allie said eyeing me weirdly.

We both finished our coffee in silence.

"Come on, let's go to the beach" I told her.

"Okay" Allie said.

"And now tell me what happened?" Allie asked me.

"Well, it's frustrating, you know when your boyfriend is hiding things from you." I said.

"Sorry sorry. I am being vague here. So, apparently a girl called Madison Summers showed up in the Stokes home. Ever since she came Andrew has been acting strange towards me and I don't like it." I vented to her.

"Whoa. What was the name you said, Abigail Balasco?" She asked me.

I nodded.

"Is this how she looked?" Allie asked me showing a photo of a model from Google.

"Oh God. Yes this is the girl. I thought she looked familiar" I said.

"This is how you feel when someone you love keeps things from you?" I asked sighing

"Wow. You love him!" Allie said squealing.

"You got only that?" I asked shaking my head.

"Well, it's part and parcel of falling in love. He will eventually tell you. Maybe he would have felt that thing which he kept from you is not important anymore" Allie said.

"Wow. That's some love sense you are talking" I said laughing.

Allie just laughed at me.

"How about a drama free day. It is just you, me and Marco's?" I asked her.

"Friends hangout, I like it. Let me call Marco" Allie said dialing his number.

I looked at my phone hoping Andrew would hve texted me. He always annoys me.. Normally, I don't like when people annoy me but when Andrew does it, I love it so much.

I just laughed at my inner voice.

"Okay, he's on his way" Allie said.

"Oh, gloomy Riley is not a mood" Allie making a gag face at me.

"I know right, I don't even like her" I replied.

"That's more like old Riley" Allie said laughing.

"So, my two favorite girls in the World!" Marco said

"Marco Polo" I said throwing sand on his jeans.

Allie also joined me and started throwing sand on his jean.

"This is not the welcome I expected from my girl" Marco said chasing us.

"Oh, catch me to get a kiss" Allie said.

"That's more like it" Marco said catching Allie.

"Guy, PDA is too much." I shouted at them.

"Finally, let's go to the park" I said.

I had a nice day at the park. We were like this little kids again. Marco kept on complaining how all the rides and bars are short.

"Stop complaining. You are a giant" I said from near the swing.

"Stop grumbling and push my swing!" Allie shouted.

"Coming my love" Marco said jogging towards her.

"It's good old times!" Allie shouted at top of her lungs.

"I know right!" I replied her with the same excitement.

We took phots of us making silly faces.

"Ah, I missed this!" Marco and Allie said at the same time.

"Me too!" I said and called for a group hug.

Afterwards, We went to our favorite restaurant.

"Whoa. How is it already 9 PM?" Allie asked.

"Well, it's 9PM cause the clock says 9PM" I said grinning.

"If one more non-sense comes out of your mouth, I am going to dis-own you as my bestfriend, you hear me?" Allie said.

"Yeah right" I said flipping my hair.

"Hey, that makes sense to me!" Marco said.

I hi-fi'd him.

Marco dropped me home. And I saw my mom in the living room watching tv.

"Hey, Riley!" I heard my mom's voice.

"Hey, Mom. How was your day?" She asked.

"It wa good except a few things" I said.

"Want to talk about it?" My mom asked.

"I am fine. Spent the day with the Allie and Marco, Mom" I said.

"Well then. Good night!" My mom said.

"Good night, Mom!" I said and went upstairs.

I posted a photo of us three on instagram with the caption original trio.

"God, you beat me to Instagram" Allie has DM'd me.

"Yeah, God speed, peasent!" I said laughing.

"Whatever!" She replied
