Is This Even Worth Fighting For?

thirty

As the weekend progressed, it became very clear that I needed this little reset. As the time passed, things seemed lighter, things seemed like it was getting better and I have James to thank for that. I never understood how he was so good at all of this but I wouldn't want to change it at all 
"Riley, the door is for you!" I hear my mum call, I smiled jumping out of bed Sunday Afternoon heading downstairs
I opened the front door to see a boy stood there with a bouquet of roses in his hands
"What is this?" I asked taking it from his hands, they were gorgeous
"If you could sign here for me" The boy said, I happily obliged before heading inside

I placed the flowers on the side in the kitchen taking the card out of it's holder. I should have known who these were from
'Riley, 

Be dressed and ready for 5pm-James '

Smiling to myself I checked the time to see it was already 4:30pm, I had little to no time at all, wasn't this great
"Who was it?" Mum asked as I walked back through to head up stairs
"It was flowers from James" I replied with a smile, Mum smiled back before nodding
She liked James, she always has and I think that when we moved away. She missed him a little, I think the whole family did. When James was around he was completely immersed with the family and they were all smitten with him

After I spent most of my time trying to find something to wear, I had around 10 minutes to throw my hair together and to apply a small layer of makeup to my face. I never use too much unless its competition season
"Riley, door.. Againnnn" Mum called
I sighed looking at myself once more in the mirror before rushing downstairs to see Eldon stood on the doorstep
"What in the world?" I asked making both of us chuckle
"Where are we going?" I asked as we got into the car, Eldon shot me a look
"I would literally be murdered if I had told you Riley" He said making me roll my eyes as he drove

In all honesty, it wasn't long until we were at the location, I looked at Eldon for the next instruction because I was blind at this point
"Follow the photos" Was all Eldon said as I got out of the car
I furrowed my brows before seeing a photo attached to a tree near by

'You have always been a bottle of stress and with one small stir you would boil over. But since day one, I haven't let you do it alone. And I don't plan to let you start now x'

I smiled reading it, I knew this was another one of James tactics to help cheer my up but he's never gone this big with it
I continued to walk through this small wooded area until I came to another photo. It was the day that James had finally been able to return to the studio. Everything looked brighter and fell into place as soon as he returned
