Natalia's POV:

'Meet me behind school after fifth period.' Ryder texted me.

'Why?' I asked him.

'That's a surprise ;)' he said. He wasn't going to tell me. I sighed. I was stuck in Math class. I had Spanish class in sixth period so I was going to skip anyways. Right now Nicole and I were stuck in Math class. I loved Math. Note the sarcasm.

"Now when you add the two vectors...." our math teacher went on. I stared out the window. I was sitting at my usual seat at the back of class. My mom would have a heart attack if she found out I was sitting at the back. She always wanted me to be the perfect student, with good grades and what not. I gave her all that till seventh grade. Then I changed. Someone passed me a note.

'I'm bored as fuck and don't get a single thing.' The note said. It was definitely from Nicole. I took out my phone and texted her. The teacher was too busy to notice me.

'Same.' I said.

'Says the girl who gets straight A's -_-' she replied. Okay I may not have been able to change my habit of getting good grades. It was the only change I couldn't change.

'I got a B in Math last time. You're the one who always gets an A in math.' I said. She smirked. She liked Math and always managed to score an A in it. I, on the other hand, hated it. The bell rang and class was over.

"Finally. I thought she wouldn't shut up about Shakespeare." Maddie said as we left class.

"What class do you have next?" I asked her.

"Basketball practice. What about you?" She asked me.

"Spanish. But Ryder told me to meet him behind school. Said he had a surprise for me." I said.

"I can tell what kind of surprise it is." She said with a wink. I rolled my eyes.

"Don't you have basketball practice?" I asked her. She smirked.

"I do. And I'm going." She said before heading towards the gym. I made my way to the back of school. I heard someone talking as I passed by an empty corridor. I wouldn't stop to listen but I heard my name. And Ryder's. I stopped and listened to the conversation. It was two jocks. I knew one of them. It was Jack, Sebastian's friend.

"Ryder is going to pay for fucking my girlfriend." He said angrily to his friend. What the hell?

"What're you going to do about it? I mean there's no way you can fight him. He'll knock you out in a second." His friend said.

"No, I won't fight him. I'll get him using his girl, Natalia. I'll throw a party, get them to come, get both of them drunk and maybe drug Natalia a little before convincing her to have sex with me. Then I just have to make sure Ryder catches us." He said with an evil smile on his face. So he planned on drugging me. Bad idea. I walked out from behind the lockers.

"Do you really think that's going to work?" I growled at him in a low dangerous tone. They turned around to face me. My hands were clenched into fists. I walked up to Jack.

"What's a little girl like you going to do?" He asks and smugly.

"Let me show you." I said with a sickly sweet smile before grabbing him by his shirt's collar and pushing him against the wall. There was pure fear in his eyes. I then punched him in the face as hard as I could. I heard his friend run away. I punched him again. I pushed him to the wall before kicking him in the balls. He cried out in pain before falling to the ground. I picked him up and punched him again.
