"Riley, come here" I heard Luca call from the kitchen when I tried to sneak out the next morning. I sighed as I froze then turned round and walked into the room. 

"Yes dear" I said sweetly and he rolled his eyes before dropping a pile of papers on the kitchen table between us. 

"Well I must say I am surprised how much you got done, really, pages and pages" he said in a flat tone and then raised an unimpressed brow. 

"Heh, uh yeah..about that..." I said awkwardly and stepped back a little bit. 

"Yeah you're not getting away, we're getting ALL of this done, otherwise  you going away would have only caused stress and would've been a waste of time" he lectured and I sighed. 

Great, going to have a lovely Saturday aren't I.

"Riley. PAY ATTENTION." Luca snapped for the fourth time as we sat at the table and I groaned as I put my head in my crossed arms on the table surface. 

"Seriously we'll be here all day if you don't do it" he stated and I wanted to run away and escape.

Seriously he is so persistent, prefer Aaron as a teacher. 

"Riley, come on, I have better things to do" he complained and I lifted my head up to give him a look.

"Well, here's an idea. How about I go up to my room, and do it by myself, and you, can do whatever you want, good idea?" I suggested and he rolled his eyes.

"No, not good idea, because you wouldn't get anything done!" he exclaimed in annoyance and I chuckled. 

"And there's no point giving me a puppy dog face either" he grumbled and I cursed. Fine. 

"But this is torture..and it's not like I'm learning anything new anyway" I complained and he raised a brow.

"Oh? How about you answer some of the questions and prove that" he said and I huffed.

"Too much effort" I practically slurred and he facepalmed. 

"You're impossible" he huffed as he sat back in his chair and I shrugged. 

"Seriously, just answer a few questions, and freedom is yours" he said after a while, and leaned forward and over the table again. 

"Sitting here is less effort" I stated and he gave me a look. 

"Well, is there anything I can do to persuade you?" he then said with a smile and I raised my brow. 

"Well, depends what you're willing to do" I said in a hushed tone as I leaned forward, giving him a suggestive smile. 

"Well, answer a question correctly, and you'll find out" he mimicked my tone and I huffed before looking down at the sheet. 

Oh wow, circle theorems, that was baby stuff. 

I frowned down at the sheet and found the easiest question. 

"Um...the answer to question 7 is 56 degrees" I said with a smile and he gave me a suspicious look before looking at the question himself and I rolled my eyes.

"I think...you're right"he eventually said and I scoffed with a smile. 

"Well look who else needs some maths lessons hmm?" I teased and he gave me a flat look. 

"I was just double checking" he explained and I chuckled. 

"What? You doubt me? I bet my IQ is double of yours" he grumbled and I scoffed.

"Um, rude. Besides how do you know, I could be saving my brain power for other things" I started off with a glare then changed it to an 'i'm better then you' shrug. 

"Wonder what those other things could possibly be" he said sarcastically and I gave him a look. 

"Well, dry my patience and you'll find out" I whispered but despite my words being possibly aggressive I was smiling in amusement. 

"Feisty one we have here" he exclaimed in amusement before ruffling my hair with a wide smile and I tsked at him. 

"Now you should probably get on with the questions" he reminded and I raised a brow with a smile. 

"Not without being persuaded" I stated in a teasing tone and he narrowed his eyes.

"Fine." he then said before leaning forward and capturing my lips in a kiss.

Oh wow, didn't expect him to actually do it. 

"Persuaded?" he asked when he pulled away slightly with an amused grin plastered on his face.

"Hmm, not quite" I said and chuckled at his reaction. 

"Guys you're alone in the room but not the house, seriously" a voice sounded from the hall and I looked to see Alex giving us an unimpressed glare with crossed arms.

I looked back to a guilty as fuck looking Luca with a smile. 

"Oopsies" I remarked and chuckled while he gave me a stern 'shut the fuck up' look.

"Complete the sheet Riley" he ordered causing me to chuckle even more but grab the sheet anyway. 

"To save future arguments, that was my fault" I decided to say back to Alex, and his angry demeanor faded into a suspicious one. 

I then winked at him and he rolled his eyes before smiling and walking off. 

"You know you just made yourself seem like a manwhore right?" Luca eventually piped up, interrupting the slightly awkward silence. 

"Daww, nice you found a new word for it, but I prefer the word slut; gender equality and all" I teased and he gave me a flat look. "Yeah I know, but I saved your ass from a nasty argument you'd find it hard to get out of, at least now you seem a little more innocent" I explained before putting my pen down and smiling as I stood up. 

"Done"
