You're my superhero

Chapter 28

Shaylie's POV

I woke up to a text from Ross saying "Can we talk tomorrow? It's important." My heart dropped. I didn't know what he was going to say after and I had to get to school.

To: Ross (;

Can we talk after school? I'm sorry:/

My heart started racing when I pressed send.

From: Ross (;

That's fine! Have a great day beautiful!(: I'm going back to bed.

When I read the text I just ignored it. I felt bad for waking him up. I usually text him every morning but now since school started, I wake up really early. Carter showed up at my house with a bruised face and a fractured wrist. "Damn! What happened?" I asked walking downstairs to find Carter waiting for me. "I was teaching Tyler a lesson into not hurt my baby girl." He laughed. "Carter, you know I'm older than you, right?" I laughed. "Shut up Shaylie!" I heard him say as I started walking into the kitchen to get a pop tart. "Shaylie, we got to go." Carter said following me. "But I'm eating!" I whined. "You can take it in the car, let's go!" He raised his voice in a joking manner. "Okay!" I laughed and jumped up like I was a little girl. We got to school and met up with Rose. She ran up and hugged me. "Can we hang out today?" She asked. "Can't, I'm grounded." "Because you skipped school yesterday?" She rolled her eyes. "You know me so well!" We both started laughing. We walked into the school and went to homeroom. The day seemed to drag on because of the thing Ross said to me this. Last period finally came and we the bell rand I raced out of the school and to Carter's car. He met me there about a minute after. "Wow, you're early today." He laughed. "Would you rather I am late?" I asked. "Nope, let's go." He smiled getting in the car. "Drop me off at the Lynch's, I think Ratliff is there." I said and he started the car. We drove to the Lynch's and we were listening to music. We pulled up to the Lynch's house and I got out. "Thank you!" I called to him. I walked up to the door and knocked. Ratliff opened the door. "Am I allowed here?" I asked. "I guess, you here for Ross?" He asked. "Yeah, he told me he needed to talk to me, I'm kind of scared." I bit my lip. "I'm sure it's nothing! If he hurts you, just let me know." He smiled. I nodded and walked upstairs. "What did you need to talk about?" I asked walking into the room. Ross started going on and on about how he didn't want to be a second choice. I said something but I can't even remember because I ran home crying. Someone must have heard me because someone comes running into my room. Part of me was hoping it was Ross, but it was Rocky! "W-what happened? Why are you crying?" He asked. He was all blurry because of the tears in my eyes. I closed my eyes tightly and tears fell faster. Rocky wiped them away. "R-Ross thinks that he's a second choice and that I don't like him even though I do and I just don't even know what to do. I mean I guess it kind of did look like that but he was the one comforting me the most. He's my, he's my superhero." I said between sobs. Rocky pulled me into a hug. "Just give him a little time. He will come to his senses. He will realize that you didn't mean to do what you did. He will realize that he can't lose the most beautiful girl in the world. He will realize that sooner or later. Just give him a little time!" Rocky smiled and pulled out of the hug. "Thank you!" I smiled back and he left. A few minutes later someone else barged into my room. "Can I help you?" I snapped. "Sorry, but what happened back there?" Ross said. "Took you long enough!" I laughed. "What?" Ross asked. He looked really confused. "Sorry, so what do you mean." I asked. "Well, one second we are having a conversation and then the next you are running out of my room crying and then I see Rocky walking out of your house. What is going on?" He asked. "Honestly Ross, I have no idea. All I know is that I want you, I want to be with you, and I'm going to wait for you. You are my superhero." I smiled and hugged him. "So you will go out with me?" He smirked. "Yes!" I smiled. He leaned in and kissed me passionately and I matched it. We were standing in the doorway kissing when Ratliff walked in. "What is going on?" Ratliff asked. I pulled away from the kiss and heard Ross start talking. "I'm dating your sister. Is that okay? I will take perfect care of her and I love her and I will never hurt her." Ross said. "What did you do to Tyler?" Ratliff laughed. "Taught him a lesson for hurt my best friend." Ross smiled. "You guys can go out, I approve." Ratliff laughed and walked away. I leaned into Ross and we started kissing again.
