Ryland's POV

I got ready for and tried my best to ignore Austin, I was still kind of pissed at him for punching Shane. I know he was only doing it out of love but still he shouldn't just assume that was abusive.
I asked Shane to drive me to school because I was to lazy and tired to walk.

[Shane] I'm here

[Ryland] ok, I'll be there in a sec

[Shane] I'll be waiting

[Ryland] :)

I grabbed my backpack and ran outside, I saw Shane in his car on his phone.
I walked up to his car and tried to get in. It was locked so I knocked on the window, Shane jumped.
"Geez you scared me" Shane laughed
"Sorry" I apologized
"It's fine," he reassured
We basically just sung and danced to Britney Spears in the car while we went to school.
We got into school and everyone was staring at us. Shane and I both knew why so we both ignored it. At least I tried to.

We got into first hour and Dylan was there smirking at me. He stopped looking at me when Shane looked at him.

In the middle of the class I got up and asked the teacher if I could go to the restroom.

Shane's POV

Ryland got up from his desk and went up to the teacher, he was probably going to the bathroom.
After I saw Ryland go I saw Dylan get up and go to the teacher. Dylan walked out also. Fuck I knew he was going to go talk to Ryland or do worse. I went up to the teacher to ask if I could go to the bathroom but he said no because to many people already asked.
Fuck I hope Ryland will be okay.

Ryland's POV

I went to the bathroom and use it. When I came out of the bathroom I saw Dylan.
"W-What do you want" I stuttered making my way to the sinks.
"You" He said as I was finished washing my hands
"What?" I asked?
"I want you ryan" he repeated bringing me to the farthest stall to the door.
"Dylan I don't want this" I said trying to hold back my tears.
"I'll make this quick" he answered kissing my neck
"No no" I whispered
"Please stop" I try to push him off of me but he wouldn't get off.

Shane's POV

Ryland finally came back, he looked like he was just crying. Tears stained his cheeks.
I wanted to ask him if he was okay but I didn't want to do it during class.
Ryland said that Dylan wanted to hurt me but I don't think it's the way Ryland thought. Dylan knows that I care about Ryland. I think Dylan wanted to hurt Ryland to hurt me, I'm just worried what Dylan did to Ryland.

Ryland didn't show at lunch I'm worried about him

[Shane] hey you didn't show at lunch

[Shane] where are you

[Shane] you're not in 5th hour

[Shane] are you okay?

[Shane] you're not in 7th hour

[Shane] Ry are you okay?

[Shane] Ryland I'm getting worried

[Shane] schools over

[Shane] ry you're not even reading these

[Shane] I just want to know if you are okay?

Ryland's POV

I went home early, I walked home. I did anything to get away from him. I couldn't stand him anymore. He scares me, he's done worse Ryland. I don't know anymore, i don't know what to do. Should I answer Shane? I don't know what to do.
While I walk home started to cry. I felt my legs getting weak, I felt my chest getting heavy.
I feel like I could pass out. Luckily I arrived at my house. I put the key in the lock and opened the door. No one was home luckily. I ran to my room and shut my door. I just sat on my bed and thought about everything that happened. I couldn't go to school the rest of the day, I would if I didn't have to see him but I had to if I went to the rest of my classes so I just left. I knew it would worry Shane but I just don't want to see him. I cried for a long time. Maybe 2 hours, then I fell asleep.
I woke around 2:15 pm and checked my phone cus that's what I do every time I wake up.
I saw 10 messages from Shane.
Shit
[Ryland] hey sorry

[Shane] RYLAND!!!!

[Ryland] hey

[Shane] hey are you okay?

[Ryland] yeah

[Shane] I saw Dylan go after you and I was worried

[Ryland] yeah he didn't go into the bathroom

[Shane] really!!

[Ryland] yeah

[Shane] Wow

[Ryland] ikr

[Shane] well I have to go, see you later

[Ryland] ok bye

I had to lie to Shane I didn't want him to worry, I couldn't let him worry.

Shane's POV

*later that night*

Outside it was raining and cold, maybe even hailing a little. I feel bad for anyone that is outside right now.
I heard light tapping on the window but I didn't think much about it because it could be the hail hitting the window.
The tapping got a lot louder as time when on. I decided to look outside to see what was going on. I saw Ryland outside freezing. I grabbed my jacket off of my chair and ran to the front door.
I ran to where Ryland was outside. I put my jacket around him and walked him inside. I took him to my room so we wouldn't wake anyone up.
We when up to my room and he sat on my bed as I went to shut the door.

"Ryland what are you doing here" I asked, I could tell he's been crying.

"I'm sorry" he mumbled looking at his hands

"Why are you sorry?" I wondered

"I didn't tell you the truth about why I left" Ryland said will having tears running down his face

" Are you talking about Dylan?" I questioned sitting next to him

He nodded,

"You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to"  I assured him

" Dylan did it again, I didn't think it was going to happen again" Ryland said, he now sobbing. I knew exactly what Ryland was talking about.

"Ryland I'm sorry, I tried to help you but the teacher didn't let me go" I explained

"Shane it's not your fault, Dylan's just an asshole who loves hurting me" he sobbed
