It's been 2 weeks since the party and Ryder hasn't "needed" me...
I walked into school and right away I saw Ryder... this time he was with a girl.
Kayla Martin. The new girl.
She seemed nice, we have a lot of classes together.
But she's with Ryder...
"Jaci!!!" She called my name. I saw Ryder's body stiffen.
I slowly walked over.
"Hey Kayla." I gave a small smile.
"Hey! Where were you yesterday?" She questioned.
"Um an old friend came into town during break (which started 2 weeks ago) and he's last day here is Sunday so he convinced me to stay home and chill with him." I laughed. I knew Ryder wouldn't like that but it was the truth.
"Ooh is he just an old friend? Is he hot? Did he sleepover??" She asked laughing.
"Yes just an old friend and yeah he's sleeping over, his parents are friends with mine so he stays at my house whenever they come to visit." I explained.
"Is he hot?" She insisted I'd answer.
"I mean I guess." I sighed.
"Girl you have a hot guy at your house sleeping over, and you're over here sighing?!" She was shocked.
"It's complicated. We've known each other since we were little and I don't know I guess I've never seen him in that type of way." I explained. Ryder looked pissed...
"Oh, well you're still lucky." She laughed.
"Eh... not really." I laughed. "It's not luck when you don't want to be with someone and all they want is you." I shook my head, not making eye contact with Ryder.
"I guess you're right." She gave me a small smile. That's when I saw her grab Ryder's hand.
I froze.
He lied to me. He broke his promise.
"I have to go to my locker I'll see you later Kayla." I started to walk away....
I felt his hands... he grabbed my hand and pulled me into an empty room.
Someone had to have seen us. What is he doing?
"So this guy... he's the reason you haven't answered my texts?" He sighed.
"What are you talking about? You never texted me. It's been 2 weeks of nothing from you." I turned away from him. I wanted to cry.
"Look! I have proof I fucking texted you." He was angry, not at me but I saw the anger and hurt in his eyes.
He showed me his phone, which stated,
Ryder's Phone:
"Hey babygirl.... want me to come get you?"
"I wanna take you somewhere..."
"Babygirl?"
(3 days after the party)
"Wanna chill at my place?"
( 5 days after the party)
"Ugh... babygirl... I need you..."
(10 days after the party)
"Why are you ignoring me?"
(2 days ago)
