Game Set Match

ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ꜰᴏʀᴛʏ ᴇɪɢʜᴛ

I was sitting down in the classroom looking at the bracelet that Ryder gave me. I didn't pay much attention to the teacher since we had a substitute and well he was very boring.

I don't know what to do. I like him I just don't know how to tell him. I should wear this bracelet and give him a few signs that I like him. That's it.

The bell rings.

I walked out of the classroom holding my books. I was wearing the bracelet Ryder gave me on my left hand. I looked at my phone and saw it was time for cheerios practice.

I walked to my locker and put my books into my locker then took out my cheer bag with my practice clothes. I shut my locker and turned around until Brady suddenly scared me by blocking my way.

"I have cheerios practice." I said to him.

"You can't just dump me like that, baby." Brady smirks at me.

"I didn't dump you. I just realized that you are not my type." I smirk back at him.

"And your type is the guy with the brunette Justin Bieber hair?" Brady raises his eyebrows at me.

"Not really." I shake my head. "Well, would you leave please? I am already late." I grin at him.

"What is the right type for a slut like you, huh?" Brady smirks at me.

"What did you just call me?" I glared at him.

"You dumped me and no one has ever dumped me before, but you did for a guy with Justin Bieber hair, you slut!" Brady protested.

"Watch your mouth, dude!" Ryder suddenly pushes him away and punches him in the face. "She dumped you because you were trying to sleep with her and she is not a slut!" Ryder yells, now they are both fighting each other.

"Ryder stop!" I yelled trying to hold him but he was too big for me, until Jake came and pulled him off Brady.

"You better leave before I kill you. Oh and don't you dare call my sister a slut!" Jake yelled at Brady.

Brady just glared at us and walked away back into the crowded hallway. To be honest I really wanted to slap him in the face because he called me that.

"Are you okay?" I asked Ryder.

"Yeah." Ryder nodded. "He didn't hurt you or anything, right?" Ryder asked me.

"No, he just called me a slut." I let out a sigh.

"Was it because you dumped him?" Jake asked me.

"He was trying to have sex with me on our first date. I thought that was too much, so I dumped him." I said to Jake.

"You deserve so much better than those jerks." Jake took his books and shut his locker then walked away.

I just leaned my body against my locker and exhaled. "Jake is right, you deserve someone better than those jerks." Ryder says to me.

"Like who?" I raised my eyebrows at him.

"Me, maybe?" Ryder smirks at me.

"I'll think about that." I chuckle. "I have cheerios practice now. See you and thank you so much." I smiled at him and walked away.

The way Ryder defended me really shows me that he could be a gentleman. Okay now, I'm definitely sure that I should give him a chance. I will tell him that I like him. Wait but how? I bet he didn't even notice that I was wearing the bracelet he gave me, and now this will be the only thing I will wear on my wrists. I will wear it all the time, but this is so confusing. I have never liked a guy before. I date those jerks for fun and not because I like them.  Ugh!!!!
