When Becca picked me up for school this morning all she did was talk about Ryder and I. I mean it was sweet but honestly super annoying, especially since I didn't plan on catching feelings for him.
We made our way to first period with linked arms as usual when someone laid a hand on my shoulder. I immediately jerked away and raised my elbow up to hopefully come in contact with one of their body parts. With just my luck, the person simply cupped my elbow and gently brought it down.
"Woah, it's me."
I turned around letting go of Becca to see Ryder.
"Oh," I groan internally for my cheeks are burning red and I hope he doesn't notice.
"Haha, that's okay bruiser," he says giving me a wink.
Ugh, why do guys always wink at girls? Could he be anymore cocky? I mean yeah I know his eyes are beautiful, but he doesn't have to go and be all sexy about.
"Hi Becca," he says waving at her before continuing to walk. He pauses when I don't move.
"Coming?"
I nod and continue walking to first period, Becca on my right and Ryder on my left. He stands about a foot away from me and I'm grateful that we don't have to awkwardly brush arms or worse hands.
"Bye Ryder," Becca says walking into the classroom, not before giving me a grin.
I roll me eyes and turn to Ryder.
"So," I say rocking on my feet. "I'll see you later then?"
"Yeah, I'll see you later," he says giving me a warm smile before turning around and walking down the hall.
I watch him go and he looks back half way down the hall and sends me a wink making my face burn. I quickly turn around and find my seat next to Becca.
