Time skip
I am currently sitting at lunch with Ryder as we discuss the talent show, this week was wrapped around rehearsing and getting our act together for today so we do good and hopefully win. "Are you ready for tonight?" Ryder asks and i smile with a nod "I have actually been quite excited for this " I reply with a smile
"Look over" Ryder whispers, i look over and i can see Jackson looking down at Ellis clearly pissed "Jackson quit it he's just a friend i don't understand whats the big fucking deal" I hear Ellis scream "She has a lot of guy friends it was something i had to live with" Ryder says "Jackson gets crazy jealous, trust me he fought my neighbour who by the way used to be my best friend" I say "And gay" I finish and Ryder chuckles
"What you laughing at Jones" Jackson snaps over here and i get up "Why does it matter Jackson" I say confronting him "I wasn't speaking to you Scar" Jackson says lowering his tone slightly "Well Jackson i was talking to you therefore you get your shit together before talking to my boyfriend the way you are right now because i am pretty sure the only person you should be worried about right now is you slut of a girlfriend who fuck all her guy friends now if you would excuse us me and my boyfriend have a beautiful song to rehearse for tonight" I say angrily shutting him up completely
I grab Ryder and walk away angrily "What was that?" Ryder whispers "I take care of my own" I say smiling "At least i can defend myself " Jackson yells, i look at Ryder who is fumming, he lets go off me and walks off to Jackson before punching him in the face making him stumble back "Trust me i know how to defend myself but at least i have a loyal girlfriend who stands up for me what does Ellis do? Hide behind you like a lost puppy?" Ryder says and laughs before walking back to me
He places a kiss on my lips and walk away with me behind "What just happened?" I ask "God knows" Ryder says and we look at each other before busting out laughing "How about waterfall?" I ask Ryder with a smirk, he smiles brightly and we make our way to my car
After we get to the waterfall i take off my clothes leaving me in my bra and underwear before I smirk at him and jump right into the water and let it completely cool me down, i look up and see Ryder jump in next to me "I'm so glad you showed me this place" Ryder says with a smile and i smile at him "This place is amazing" I say and start to float
Ryder comes over to me and hold my body up while going in a circle softly just before he starts to float himself and that's how we stay for a while, floating away and enjoying each others company.
....
We head out to where my car is and get in "I'll drop you home" I say to Ryder who smiles, i was the one that picked him up this morning, We get to his house and i see his mum looking so i give him a peck on his lips "Your mum was watching" I whisper and he smiles "I'll see in you soon" Ryder says and i nod "I'll pick you up at 6:30" I say and he nods before getting out the car and giving me a short wave
I drive away, when i get home i walk in and Rick is still at work so i just go to my room to rehearse for the next hour until i have to get ready ...#
I have a quick shower and get dressed
(Without the bow) I give myself one more look in the mirror and walk down the stairs to see Rick on the couch "You ready ?" I ask Rick who nods, he's coming to watch me and Ryder perform. We walk to my car and he sits on the back seat leaving the front seat available for Ryder to sit at. We arrive at Ryder's house and i just beep to show him that i'm here
He walks out a minute later in black jeans, a red top and his usual leather jacket to top of his outfit, i smile as i realise that we are basically matching. Ryder sits in the car and looks at me "We're matching" He says and smiles "Looks like it yeah" I say with a smile before driving away
I park my car in the usual spot and we all get out, Rick sits in the front row and me and Ryder go back stage to get ready "Are you nervous?" Ryder asks "Every since i became Scar i don't get nervous about much " I say and he nods "I'm used to having thousands of people staring at me, while i fight no sing" I say and with that revealing to him that i am indeed a little nervous
"I can relate to that" Ryder says "Next up Ryder and Scarlet" The principal says and me and Ryder walk to the stage hand in hand "Whats up guys, me and Ryder are going to be singing all if me by John legend tonight" I say and Ryder smiles, the music starts playing and we start singing
The whole time we are singing our eyes are locked together, our hands tightly intertwined as we give a huge performance to show our "love" and honestly if i was watching this i would've believed it. We stop singing and Ryder pulls me into a passionate kiss which was new to both of us, we pull away and look at the crowd before giving a short bow just before we walk out of the stage
"That was pretty good" Ryder says and i smile in agreement "It really was, maybe we will pass to the second stage of this" I say, our school does this thing around this time of year that is the 3 stages of talent show kind of like x factor, there will be 3 stages the first everyone that gets through performs, stage 2 there will be 5 people, final stage 3 people will perform and one will or the couple lets say will win
We get called onto the stage and the principal decides who's going to stage two "and lastly Ryder and Scarlet" He says and my jaw drops as i hug Ryder "We are through bitch" I say and he hugs me tight
"We will see all of you in 2 weeks for stage two" Principal Grey says and we all start to leave "Scarlet, Ryder" The principal says and we walk over to him "Scarlet i am proud that after you and Jackson broke up, you and Ryder seem to be very good for each other. All the fights have stopped, you are taking parts in activities like these and even your grades have gone up and that goes for both" Principal Grey says and i smile
"We got rid of the negative people sir " I say and he nods "Carry on this way Scarlet, Ryder" He says and we nod before walking away meeting Rick at my car "I'm proud that you took your singing to something more jellybean" Rick says and i nod "And thank you Ryder for taking out this side of her" Rick says and Ryder smiles
After dropping Ryder home we head to my house and i head straight to bed, today has been an eventful day.
