Bella POV
No no no. This can't be happening.
It's been a year. How can this even happen?
"Bella don't be rude." My mom said giving me a push towards Ryder.
"No i...I can't do this" I whispered.
I turned to run upstairs but instantly ran into Nash causing me to loose my balance and fall to the ground.
I held my head but stood up.
"Bella what's wrong?" Nash whispered to me.
"That's-Thats Ryder.." I stuttered. "The kid-Who stalked me.." I said my voice cracking.
Nash stood looking at me in disbelief. I pushed past him and ran out the front door instead.
My mind kept telling me to keep running but my feet stopped me.
I had stopped a few house away Trying to catch my breath. Man was I out of shape. I noticed a house with a moving truck outside and lots of boxes. I kinda just stood their standing.
"Uh are you okay!" This boy asked laughing at me.
I snapped out of my trance and blushed from how stupid I looked.
"Oh yeah sorry, I kinda just like ran and I'm out of breath." I said nervously laughing, their was a silence. "So your new here?" I said trying to making conversation.
"Uh yeah, that's why there is a moving truck here." He said laughing.
"Righttttt" I said again. God I sound so stupid right now.
"Well I'm Colton, Colton May ." He said rubbing his neck.
"I'm Bella, Bella Grier!" I smiling.
"Like Nash Grier sister?" He said like he was talking about someone real famous.
"Yeah, that's me" I said looking down.
"Well I'm new so maybe you could show me around sometime?" He asked.
"I uh..Don't really know you." I said stuttering and backing up thinking about Ryder and what he did to me.
"Are you okay?" He asked stepping towards me.
"Um yeah, I just-Just gotta go." I said stepping back again but tripping over my own foot and falling onto the hard pavement and scraping me knee.
"Woah, are you okay?" He asked again.
"Yeah, I gotta go." I said getting up with a bloody knee and running the opposite way from home. I heard Colton calling from a distance but I didn't bother to look back.
I refuse to get hurt again.
