Chapter 11
Ryder.
What is he doing here and what happened to his face, other than what I did in Phys Ed.
I couldn't resist giggling. Then quickly, I regained composure.
"What happened to your face? Someone finally put you in your place? I would like to thank him." I smirked.
"Yea, I bet you would. So what are you doing out here, alone?"
"What does it look like, dips hit? I'm eating."
"Mind if I join you?"
"Yes, I do mind."
"Great! I will be right back."
He walked up to the line and ordered his food. A second later I heard the bell on the front door ring. I looked at who it was. There were a whole pack of them. The only one I recognized was Derrick. Damn it. He was with a group of guys, about 4 others.
He locked eyes with me, I turned to see Ryder in front of me with 2 whoppers, large fry and a chocolate shake.
"Don't say anything. Maybe they will leave."
He had a devilish look in his eyes.
"Hey, guys. Get your food and come on over here." He yelled from across the resturant. Damn him.
"I hate you." I stated.
"I know you love me." Cocky prick.
"I really don't, you fuck face."
"Watch your attitude and language, babe." I flipped him off, grabbed my stuff and walked to another table. Next thing I know I was ambushed by 6 very large guys.
"Damn you, Ryder. You are a persistent motherfucker."
"Damn, she's feisty. I like em' feisty."
"Can I play with her for a while, Ryder."
"I thought you were dating that hoe, Brittany?"
"I call dibs on this one."
They chorused. Ryder yelled at them to shut the fuck up.
"Yes, I'm with Brittany. She is very feisty. And you would have to ask her about that." He looked smug.
"You bastard. I hate you. If anyone so much as touches me you won't like the ending."
"Yea, like you could do anything to us, princess." The blonde one said.
I was sick of this. These mother fuckers don't know when to quit. I grabbed my stuff and dumped my tray. I felt someone behind me. I waited until they did something.
Smack! I felt a sting on my ass. Oh fuck, they did not just do that. I turned around, gave the blonde guy a strained smile and hit him with a right hook to his temple. I knocked him unconscious. I left him lying on the floor, all the other guys staring at me. The last thing I said was, "I told you not to touch me, fuck face." I smirked at Ryder and left.
~Ryder's POV~
Damn. She really just knocked him out with one punch. I told him not to fuck with her. He, being the cocky prick that he was, went up to her convinced that he could get her in bed. He smacked her ass. Next thing I know is he is on the floor, and all the other guys were staring at her. We all watched as she left.
"I call dibs."
"That was hot."
"What is her name?"
Some of them said.
"Her name is Tori. I don't think any of you could handle her."
"Like you could?" One of them asks.
I thought about it for a minute. Could I handle her? I feel different when I am around her. It takes every bit of me just to keep my self under control around her. She is different. She is not like Brittany. I knew that Britt was a whore. But it was kind of a given that her and I are together. I would say it was for the sex, but it isn't. She isn't very good. I didn't want Brittany, I wanted Tori. And I would have her. She is going to be a challenge, but I will win her over. I will make her fall in love with me.
"Yes." was all I said as I walked out the door.
I had to think of a plan. She was making me go crazy. I want her. I need her.
~Tori's POV~
I got in my car after I hit that idiot. I got home 15 minutes later. I open the door to find Kaleb asleep on the couch. His head was resting on Natalie's lap. She was watching TV quietly.
"Hi." I whisper.
"Hello. How was work?" She asked, getting up carefully.
"It was good."
"How did you get that bruise on you face?" she asked as I picked up Kaleb.
"I got hit by something that fell off a shelf, I'm okay. It isn't that bad." I said as I took Kaleb into his room.
I get back, write Natalie a check, and ask, "Do you mind watching him again tomorrow, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday next week?"
"Sure, just give me a call." she said staring at her check. She gave me a quick hug then left. I locked the front door and went to bed. Good thing tomorrow was Saturday. I get to sleep in.
