mine,” he smiled. I smiled, and took my phone back.
“ thanks, well me and Tristan need to get going. I guess I’ll see you later,” I smiled. Ryder looked at Tristan and then nodded his head, and I turned away and me and Tristan started to leave. I looked up at him. “ You okay Tristan?” I whispered. he didn’t say anything and we walked to the car, and he got in and then I got in after him. We sat there for a few minutes.
“ Im sorry Mayella… I just don’t like that guy,” Tristan sighed.
“ Why?” I asked.
“ It’s nothing really… just I guess you can say I have a weird feeling about him,” Tristan grumbled starting up the car. I nodded my head, and continued to look at Tristan. We pulled up in front of the house, and I got out of the car and went inside. I ran into my room, and flopped down onto my bed, and then I heard a buzz come from my phone. I looked at my phone and saw that I had one new message.

I turned off my phone and sighed. I hate surprises… so much.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
I heard my alarm going off and I turned around in my bed and slammed my hand down on it and sighed. I tumbled out of the bed, and threw on a pair of yoga pants and a green day hoodie, and put my hair up in a messy bun, and walked out into the front room. Tristan was sitting on the counter yawning and he looked up at me when I came in. I waved at him and sat down on the couch.
“ Im going out tonight around seven,” I mumbled.
“ Where?”
“ Gonna go out to eat.”
“ With who?”
“ Ryder,” I mumbled laying down on the couch.
“ Why are you telling me this?”
“ Ugh so you know that I am not going to be home,” I said raising an eyebrow and sitting up from the couch. Tristan was leaning against the counter glaring at me. “ What?” I scoffed.
“ I don’t like him Mayella,” He growled.
“ Tristan you don’t even know him,” I said walking into the kitchen.
“ I don’t need to know him, to know what he is like,” Tristan said raising his voice.
“ Enlighten me.”
“ The way he looks at you Mayella…” Tristan said giving me pleading eyes. I was looking at Tristan when my phone went off and I pulled it out of my pocket.
“ hello?” I asked.
“ morning beautiful,” I heard Ryder say.
“ oh hey,” I said looking at Tristan and then turning around and started to walk up the stairs.
“ Come outside. Im here to give you a ride to school.”
“ you didn’t have to do that,” I smiled grabbing my book bag and hauling it over my shoulder.
“ Just come on pretty lady,” he said and then the phone went down.
“ I’ll see you at school Tristan,” I called out. he didn’t reply and I sighed, and walked outside, and saw Ryder sitting in his car waiting for me. I smiled, and walked towards it and opened the door. “ Hey,” I smiled.
“ Hey,” he said and he leaned over and kissed my cheek. I looked at him shocked and he snickered and started the car and drove off. I stared out the window too scared to make eye contact with him. When we got to the school we both got out of the car, and Ryder came up next to me and wrapped his arm around me.
“ Touchy much?” I asked looking up at him. He just laughed and kissed my forehead. “ Ryder..” I grumbled.
“ Don’t worry May just chill,” he laughed. I shook my head and walked next to him, and we passed by Jeremy, Rain, and Ti, and they were all staring at us.
“ Hey Mayella!” Ti called out. I stopped walking but Ryder was still pulling me along with him.
“ Ryder I’ll talk to you later,” I smiled. He nodded his head and reluctantly let go of me, and he kissed my temple and left. I turned around and walked towards Ty. “ What’s up?” I asked. He stopped in front of me.
“ You and Ryder?” he asked.
“ Well we are just friends right know,” I muttered.
“ Yeah you two sure looked like friends,” He scoffed.
“ Well… I mean we are going out tonight on a date, but he never really asked me to be his girlfriend..”
“ yet,” Ty interrupted. I looked at him and shook my head and he shrugged his shoulders. “When Ryder wants something he’ll get it,” Ty said.
“ What is that supposed to mean?” I asked raising an eyebrow.
“ Just saying Mayella,” he said. “ Just be careful,” he said giving me a side hug and then he ran off towards his friends. I sighed and shook my head, and made my way into the school. They day pretty much felt blah. The only thing I could think about is why everyone seemed to hate Ryder. I mean he didn’t seem like a bad person. Someone tapped my shoulder and I looked up at Chris.
“ What’s wrong Mayella, you’re not eating,” He asked.
“ Im fine,” I smiled, and I poked at my mac and cheese.
“ I heard you’re going out with Ryder?” Zoe asked.
“ Where did you hear that from?” I asked looking at her.
“ Everyone is talking about it,” she smiled poking my sides. I let out a laugh.
“ Shut up,” I groaned. “ And we are just friends…”
“ For now,” Chris grinned. I looked up at him and glared.
“ All you people suck!” I groaned hitting my head on the table. They started to laugh, and I looked up and rolled my eyes. “ Hey Zoe…” I muttered.
“ Hm?” she asked. I turned towards her and leaned in to whisper in her ear.
“ you have much more style than me, and you are much more girly, and I was wondering if you could help me, because I have a date tonight,” I whispered into her ear. I pulled away and she was beaming and she nodded her head. I smiled. “ Thanks,” I grinned.
“ Oooh I can’t wait,” she said jumping up and down. I let out a laugh, and Chris cleared his throat. We both looked up and he was looking at us with an eyebrow raised.
“ what are you two talking about?” he asked propping his elbows up on the table.
“ Wouldn’t you want to know,” I laughed.
“ I do,” He laughed. I rolled my eyes.
“ Well im not telling you,” I sung. He shook his head at me.
“ Your evil,” he mumbled. I laughed and nodded my head, and then I felt someone wrap their arms around me from behind, and I jumped up in surprise. i felt someone rest their chin on my shoulder, and I looked over and saw Tristan.
“ What are you doing?” I laughed.
“ Nothing,” he whispered into my ear. Shivers went down my spine, and I let out a laugh.
“ D- Don’t do that,” I grumbled trying to get his arms off me.
“ Someone is ticklish!” Tristan said loudly, and then he started to tickle my sides, and I flung my body back, and fell off the bench, and Tristan ran away, and everyone was staring at me. Zoe and Chris where dying from laughter, and I felt my face was bright red. I stumbled up, and turned around to look at Tristan and he was laughing along with Ti, Rain, and Jeremy. I glared at him, and turned around back to my friends.
“ Ugh,” I groaned. “ Im gonna get going I’ll see you guys later,” I laughed. They nodded their heads, and I made my way out of the lunch room. While I was walking past Tristan I hit him over the head, and he looked up.
“ What was that for?” he laughed.
“ Wasn’t even the start,” I grumbled walking past him, and out of the lunch room. I ran into someone and I looked up and saw Ryder. “ hey,” I smiled. He leaned down and kissed my forehead.
“ Hello beautiful,” he grinned.
“ Hey Ryder,” I said taking a step back.
“ Hm?” he asked.
“ you know where not…”
“ Yeah I know, but since you already know that I like you I can freely flirt with you,” he smiled wrapped his arms around me. I let out a laugh.
“ So you do like me?” I laughed. He hugged me closer to him and nodded his head. i let out a laugh, and wrapped my arms around his waist.
“ The question is… do you like me?” He asked looking down at me.
“ Maybe..”
“ Maybe?” he asked.
“ HmmmHmmmm,” I laughed, and I broke apart from the hug, and stepped back. He smiled at me, and then kissed me on my forehead, and turned around to leave.
“ I’ll pick you up at seven!” he called out.
“ I’ll be waiting at seven,” I yelled back. I laughed and made my way back to my classes. The rest of the day just kind of flew past and the bell rang for the end of the day. I walked outside and looked around for Tristan. I saw him getting into his car with Ti, Rain, and Jeremy. I ran forward trying to catch up with them but they already started to drive off. I broke out into a blown out spring.
“ Tristan wait!” I screamed. Then his car stopped, and I didn’t stop quick enough, and I ran face first into the back of his car. I touched my nose, and flinched. “ Ow,” I groaned. I walked around the car, and tapped on his window, and he rolled down the window.
“ Hey Mayella,” he grinned.
“ I need a ride home,” I mumbled. He nodded his head, and I got in the back and sat next to rain, and I glared at him.
“ Nice nose,” he laughed. I flicked him off and buried myself into the seat, and sighed. When we pulled up in front of the house I saw Zoe sitting on our stairs.
“ how did she get here so fast?” Jeremy asked.
“ I don’t know,” I said getting out of the car. “ how did you get here before I did?” I laughed.
“ Because I am that awesome,” she laughed sitting up. We walked inside, and went downstairs into my
