I blinked "No, it's okay, she deserves to be hit." I said, I was glad Arthur was there to hit my sister back for me. I was in no shape to hit her back. I looked at Arthur as he kissed me and I kissed him back, feeling the pain edge away slowly. I wasn't ready to let little A.J. go, but at least I still had Arthur. I laced my hands in his hair and looked at him "I'm so glad I have you" I stated blankly.

Arthur nodded slowly, thinking about Alfred.
"Oh, da**..Riley i gotta go for a bit..ah, could you send someone over? I need someone to help with my medicine.." He said, pulling up his shirt to look at the scar on his stomach. He kissed her once more, before jogging downstairs and out the door. He walked over to Alfred's house and sat down on the couch with a sigh.

I nodded and then he was gone. I felt a shiver as Cassidy slunk into my room like a cowardly slug. She glared at me, cheeks red from where Arthur had slapped her.
"I will have Arthur" She growled, scowling at me. I shrugged.
"Okay, I can't stop you from being incredibly gorgeous" I said, looking at my feet. Cassidy wavered then growled,
"You're just trying to mess with me!" She yelled walking over to me and smacking me again "Oh! Where's Arthur to fight your fights? Hmm?" She slapped me again and I looked at my feet.

Arthur waited, not really wanting to get up and get the pills, wondering when Riley or whoever was going to come over. He pulled his phone from his pocket and dialed Riley's number, waiting for her to answer.

I felt my phone buzz and I answered it numbly.
"Hello?" I asked. But as I stood to go see Arthur Cassidy pushed me down and I stumbled "Ow" I said numbly, trying to get to my feet. I stood up and just muttered "I'll be there in a second..." And I hung up.
"You're not going anywhere!" Cassidy yelled and I snorted.
"But...I have too...I'll see you in a few hours okay? I love you sister..." I said before giving her a hug. I didn't want to lose nyone ever agian, even if Cassidy was a crazy girl. I went downstairs and walked over to Alfred's house. I rung to door bell and waited.

Arthur shouted a come in, and flashed a smile, seeing it was Riley.
"Thanks for coming." He said, standing up, then wincing and clutching his stomach.
"Oh.." He growled, making his way to the counter were a handful of pill cases sat.
"The way you americans do this confuses me.." He muttered, trying to figure out which pills to take.

I sighed at his confusion and popped open the little retangular box "Since today's Thursday you take all of your Thursday pills" I popped the Thursday compartment open and handed him the pills. I looked at the littl container and blinked, something about it made me sad. I shook my head and set the container down, un-amused with the feeling.

Arthur poked Riley in the side, and smiled.
"Pleeease dont be sad?" He asked, taking the pills slowly. He kissed Riley softly, pinning her to the counter.
"I love you too much to see you so sad." He murmured.

I sighed agian, "I know you do" I said, squirming from his grasp and rolling my shoulders. I then heard the door click open and shut, I went to see who it was and doubled back, seeing it was Cassidy.
"Hey sis, mind if I come in?" She asked walking closer to me. I took a few steps bac and wavered.
"You fallowed me?" I asked, my voice smooth.
"Why wouldn't I?" She asked. I shrugged and itched my head, had Cassidy gone insane. She looked like it. I walked over to Arthur and stood infront of him. "Oh, now don't do that" She said pushing me away from Arthur and standing next to him instead of me. I bit my loer lips but just sighed and went to the fridge to get something to eat. I pulled out an apple and then walked back over to them.
"So, Cassidy, can I have my boyfriend back?" I asked but she frowned and shook her head.

Arthur groaned when Riley went to go see who opened the door, and then he huffed when he saw Cassidy walking towards him.
"I choose Riley. C'mere love," He said, walking to Riley, and wrapping his arm around her waist.
"Cassidy seriously..bugger off." He asked, looking angrily at her.

I simply adored the way he called me 'love'. Cassidy gapped at me and I just blankly stared at her. She started to stutter, as if she were going to say something but then just growled and went to sit on the couch. I smirked a bit but then noticed that I'd left my phone at home. I trusted Cassidy, even though I shouldn't have. I looked back at Arthur and kissed him.
"I have to go back and get my phone, will you be okay?" I asked before peeling myself from his grasp and walking out of he house.

Arthur made a small sound of dissapproval, but when she left he sighed. He made his way to the couch, and flipped on the t.v, trying to ignore the fact he was alone in a house, drugged, with Cassidy. He yawned, stretching his arms, the medicine begining to kick in.

Cassidy smiled when Riley left nand emidiatly clung to Arthur when he started feeling drowzy. She kissed his cheek and started whispering in his ear "You know," She began quietly "Riley is so broken right now, there's no way she could get any worse. If you were to leave her for me, she'd get over it. She's not being very nice to you either, she's kinda' indifferent to whether you're around or not. Have you noticed? I have. I don't think she appreciats you like she should. Maybe if we..." Her voice trailed off and she looked at Arthur.

I walked slowly to my house, in no rush to get back, still thinking about the little girl next door. What if A.J. turned out to be a girl? With curly blond hair and deep brown eyes. I felt myself tear up as I walked.

Arthur pushed her off, and glared. "'m not leaving Riley, so you can't..convince me, why should I pick you anyways? You're no better." He growled, wishing Riley would hurry up and get back already.

Cassidy laughed slightly and shook her head "You and I both know that I'm prettier than her and can love you way more than her. Think about it? Lately she's been really down, even when you're showing her all this affection and love! And over what? A stupid baby. She's being stupid about this whole situation." Cassidy said, bringing her face to his and looking at his bright green eyes.

I wiped my tears away as I waked up to my room and saw my phone on the floor, I smiled and picked it up "There you are..." I sighed stuffing the little devise in my pocket.
