"Why don't you talk at school?" Ryder asked me.
I shrugged. "I do, but quietly." I admit. If I talked at school, I will have a lot of dirt on my back.
"You know, you shouldn't listen to Katie. I think you're beautiful." He says, making me blush.
"Th...
After something in your life happens, making you lose your trust with people, it's hard to trust other people again.
Poppy POV
I woke with Gucci at my feet. I get up and get ready for school.

I eat a fruit parfait for breakfast before driving to school. I park 5 minutes away from school. That's how bad it gets. I have to walk 5 minutes to school...
THAT'S A LOT OF WALKING! 5 MINUTES OF MY LIFE, JUST WALKING!
Jk, jk, jk. Jeez. Lol dude!
I don't know why I feel so giddy today, its weird that it got to a point I walked into school with a smile on my face.
"Eww. What are you wearing?" I hear a familiar annoying voice say, disgust evident in their voice. I roll my eyes to get face to face with Katie and stupid Cody. Are they dating or something or are they just teaming up to bully me?
I think its the second one.
I turn back around to open my locker, but stop when I'm pushed forward, my forehead hitting the metal locker. I hold my forehead with my head, already feeling the bump forming. I turn back around to see Cody smirking and Katie holding in a laughter.
I sigh and walk away, hearing Katie burst into laughter.
I no longer feel giddy anymore...

Lunch was worse. Food was being thrown at me and the worst part was, one of them hit my butt. It was pizza. The red sauce staining my behind looking like I got my period.
I run to the bathroom as everyone laughs behind me.
As I enter, there was no one there.
Thank God.
I washed my face that was covered with maple syrup. I don't know what school serves maple syrup as a taco dressing, but I know its my school. I looked at my hair and sighed. There was milk dripping from my platinum blonde hair and french fries sticking up from my hair.
I tool the french fries out and try my best to wash the milk out, but that needed my shampoo and a shower.
I guess I'll have to skip the rest of the day.
As I got out the bathroom, I bumped into someone. I looked up to see Ryder.
"Sorry." I mumbled quietly.
"It's ok. Let me drive you home." He smiled. Ryder was the only that didn't throw food at me. He just looked at me with sorrow.
I hated when people give me that look, but whatever.
I smiled back. "Thank you, I really appreciate it." I said.
"No problem." He said. Ryder didn't know how grateful I am for his kindness. That reminds me, the bad boy being kind.
*mentally chuckles*
We got to his car and before I got in, I remembered the red sauce on my butt. I sighed and let go of the car handle.
"I'll just walk. I got a red stain on my ass and it might stain your car." I said. He looked at me for a moment before taking off his jacket and walking around the car to get to me.
"It's fine. It's leather so you can easily wash it off, but here just so you can feel bad." He smiled at me. I furrowed my brows.
"I'm not cold Ryder. It's fine. I can walk." I said. I was about to walk off until her grabbed my forearm.
"Wrap this around your waist and I'll drive you home." Ryder said.
"If you say so." I shrug, taking his jacket and wrapping it around my waist.
He drove me home and we went inside.
"I'm happy your here y'know. My parents are barley home because of their jobs and since your here, I have someone to talk to." I say honestly looking in his eyes.
"No problem." Ryder said waving his hand. I laughed and he soon joined in.
We talked for hours until he left to go home.
Ryder was funny and I also realized the bad boy was super kind. It was weird. Sometimes I think he's not even a "bad boy".
Ryder's cute, not going to lie. His green eyes and his light brown hair. Oh! And his freckles! They make him look so cute!
As I kept daydreaming, I did my nightly routine and fell into a deep slumber.
