Hoplessly devoted to you

Chapter 2

"So you talked to her.." Sarah began as they sat down at a table at a more public park.

"Yep." Ryder answered

"And you argued with her.."

"Mhm."

"And you hung up on her."

"Correct."

"And now you're wishing you took her offer of being just friends."

"I'm a total idiot." Ryder finished and face palmed himself.

"Why do you want to take the offer now?"

"I may not be WITH her but at least I'll be friends with her. Just to be able to talk to her..."

"You still love her?' Sarah asked faint astonishment evident in her voice.

"Yes I do still love her."

"Dude you gotta move on its been two months since that phone call. You should be focusing on senior year! Your last year of high school live in the moment man!"

"Everything reminds me of her! I can't focus on anything anymore!"

"What can't you focus on?" He pulled up the sleeve of his baseball t-shirt and Mackenzie's name was written in black bold market on his wrist,"Whoa.."

"Yeah whoa." He pulled down his sleeve,"And I have to stick with it on my wrist for like two more weeks."

"So you can't get her off of your mind?"

"No matter how hard I try..it's like an Austin Mahone song you hate but its so damn catchy."

"That sucks. I wish I could help."

"It's alright..I'll just have to face the fact that she's stuck in my he- who the fuck is that?!"

"Hm? Oh yeah Mackenzie has a new boyfriend."

"Son of a bitch...I don't want to know his name. Just don't talk about him no matter how much I ask about him just don't okay?"

"Okay."

"Promise."

"Pinky swear."

~~ 10 minutes later ~~

"Eye color?" He asked

"Not telling." She declined still.

"C'mon I gotta know who this guy is!"

"Nope, I promised I wouldn't tell."

"Forget the promise please Sarah! Just tell me who he is!"

"No."

"You suck."

"You too." She told and got back to reading a book that she had to do a report on.

"If you don't tell me I'll keep annoying you and you won't be able to finish your book."

Sarah sighed and put down her book,"I can go home."

"I know where you live."

"Stalker."

"Just tell me the guys name!"

"Don't have to."

"What do you mean?" He asked. Soon after Sarah pointed behind Ryder and there the happy couple was, sitting down in the grass talking.

"Peter Henderson?" He yelled in outrage. "What the fuck?!"

"What?"

"Great now I'm fucking pissed." He complained and gripped his hair slightly.
