I stopped at the back garden in the park. I went to a corner and sat down sobbing. The only time Gabe had ever been that upset was when I came home with my boyfriend Tyler.

I walked into the house and saw Gabe and Carder in the lounge with my parents. "Hey guys this is my boyfriend Tyler." I smiled bright, feeling excited as they looked my way.

Gabe got up along with my father, Gabe grabbed my arm and pulled me into the kitchen. "Tyler? Really do you know that his the biggest player in the school?" Gabe asked as I frowned. "He said his changed." I defended.

"No one can change, his dated and cheated on so many girls! You really think he won't cheat on you?!" Gabe raised his voice. "He won't, you don't understand! You've never had a proper girlfriend!" I shouted as he slapped me.

I already had tears in my eyes. I get that he was trying to protect me but to go as far as to slap me out of anger just made my chest hurt. I held the swollen, red cheek and ran out the kitchen and out the house.

I sobbed harder just by the memory. I felt someone sit next to me and wrap an arm around my back. "He loves you." Rider whispered as I lifted my head and put in on his chest. "I know..." I said quietly, my voice breaking. "He thinks he knows everything, some times he does and some times he doesn't but this one he knows what his talking about." Rider soothed my Hair comfortingly as I wiped the tears away.

"Ryan was there when Tyler broke up with me, he helped me through it. He asked a few times if we could be friends with benefits but I always said no." I sobbed, Rider kissed my forehead. "I'm always going to be here for you, Gabe and Carder are always going to be here for you." I looked up at him. "I know." I smiled weakly.

We both got up and headed out the park. "Can we go some where else, I don't really want to see Gabe right now." I stopped him by grabbing his sleeve. "Sure, you can come over to my place." Rider said as I nodded. We were walking when I felt his hand brush mine, I ignored the weird feeling in my stomach as we walked into his house.

Cara was sitting in the living room reading, "Hey mom." Rider said as his mother looked up. "Hey Rider. Oh hey Ash." She smiled and so did I. "Hi." I said. "Mom we're going to my room." Rider said grabbing my hand and pulling me up stairs without hearing her protest.
