Bet With The Bad Boy

Chapter ten: off limits

Rydel's POV:

I was mad. No angry. No furious. Slumping down into my chair in my world history class and chomping on a sucker Caroline had giving me telling me to cheer up. Im going to murder him. Fucking murder him. "Holy shit do you have the mark?" A boy asked next to me.

He had shaggy brown hair and glasses that framed his hazel eyes. "I guess its no use trying to hide it," i sighed looking away. "I probably shouldn't talk to you then," the boy said cautiously glancing around. "Why not this 'thing' doesnt decide who i do or dont talk to," i snapped flatly.

"Yeah but it decides who lives and who gets punched in the face," he said with a small laugh. "By an egotistical jerk who thinks he's a sex god and can get away with anything?" I snorted to myself. "He does have a pretty big ego," the boy said. "The size of freaking texas," i agree. "Im Rydel," i said extending a hand out to the boy. "Ben," he responded smiling.

"So why did you let him do it," he asked looking at me with genuine curiosity. "Do what?" I asked. "Mark you. Didn't you say anything? Or did you uh.. Want it?" He blushed with the last part. "I honestly dont know what even happened. It just did and now i have this treacherous thing thats like a sign flashing 'off limits'," i sighed to him sinking further down in my seat.

As class progressed i found out a little bit more about Ben. He was on the Debate team and he surprisingly played soccer. We laughed for a bit and then class was over. "I would offer to walk you to your locker but i dont think thats the safest idea," he winked. "Bye Ben see you tomorrow," i smiled and heading to my locker.

Putting my stuff away i sighed. I didn't have my long board and i definitely wasn't riding with Archer. I spotted Opal a few lockers over and decided to go say my goodbyes. "This is going to sound crazy but do you know anyone who might have an extra long board?" I said quickly to her. "Skater girl huh?" She said smirking. "No tricks," i replied. "Just more transportation wise." She smiled. "Your in luck i still have my ex's from when we were dating in here that i never gave back." I took the board from her hands and smiled. "Thanks a ton Opal," i said grinning and walked out of the school.

There was a slight breeze in the air and the wind picked up my hair as i rode through the parking lot. "Hey Rydel wait up!" I heard a voice call. It was tanner running after me. "I thought since in walking and you're riding we could walk/ride together," he said flashing me a smile.

"I dont know if you noticed but your little friend Archer made me off limits," i scoffed to him as he walked along side me. "Its okay. Me and Archer are bros i can talk to you if i want," he smirked. "Okay but just dont screw me. We don't want your face getting bashed in now do we?" I snickered.

We walking along for a bit, Tanner in front pulling me on the board while i held onto his backpack straps. "This is mine," he said as we came to a house. "Thats cool you live like right down the street from me," i said smiling. "We should hang out sometime," he grinned. "Yeah sure," i replied. "But dont screw me because im off limits," we said at the same time laughing.
