Love Bites; Bullets

The Camera

It's been only a week since our fight, and I still haven't tried to get him back. But one day he surprised me, but I was still on the fence of being in between what Lisa thinks. No one likes him, everyone's afraid of him, but I am quite the opposite when around him. I feel protected, not threatened. And that's what nobody understands. Everyone thinks I should stay away, but why should I when I am always the one he wants to protect? Regardless, I want Ryan to appreciate me and work to get me back while also proving himself as worth my time. Thanks to my new friend Lisa, she made me realize what was right for me. 

The one day he approached me was an interesting day. His energy shifted in a way that is difficult to explain, only could if I was a witch or something. He was so mysteriously happy and excited when he approached me while I was talking to Lisa.
"Casey!" He shouts and grabs me from behind.
"Ryan?" I turned around.
"Excuse me?" Lisa said looking somewhat angered.
"This is not about you." Ryan says looking straight at her.
"Ryan.. I?" I tried to speak, but I was honestly speechless.
"You look so.." He interrupted with a very passionate kiss.
"Happy..?" I smiled as he stopped.
"You fucking bet I am!" He shouts happily.
"Why?" I asked.
"I have something to show you!" Then he grabbed my hand and pulled me along and into the courtyard. The whole way, I kept looking back at Lisa and she looked very confused and annoyed at him, not me.
"Ryan! We need to.." I don't get to finish, before he whips out a camera and the red light is recording me.
"Just like that! Beautiful." He whispers while filming me as I folded my arms in annoyance.
"What's the matter with you all of the sudden?" I asked, and he puts the camera down for one second.
"Things are going great.. That's all I have to say." He says before putting the camera back in my face for a brief moment, then filming the entire courtyard.
"I'm sorry for.." He keeps interrupting.
"Forget about that now." He says while turning the camera back to me.
"We're good then?" I ask.
"What do you mean?" He asks.
"Do you still love me?" I asked and grinned at the camera on purpose.
"Every single fucking day of my life." He says, and I laughed. But got jumped out of my skin, when Lisa came in the courtyard.
"Hun? What are you doing!?" She shouts.
"I'll tell you what I'm doing." Ryan than points the still recording camera directly at her.
"We are going to have ourselves a party in about a month." He says.
"What are you talking about?" She asked.
"Just stand there and look into the camera." He says, and I could clearly see him zooming in.
"What kind of project are you doing?" I asked him.
"I can't wait to show you Casey. It's gonna be amazing." He said.
"Get that outta my face Ryan!" Lisa yells, but he doesn't listen. 
"Ryan?" I said in a worried voice, which made him turn around.
"Please." I mouthed, and he nodded for me while stopping the recording.
"Whatever." He said sarcastically to me, before turning back to Lisa.
"There's plenty more footage where that came from." He said before walking out and back into the building.
"Lisa I'm.. " I said.
"Come on babe! I got much more recording to do!" I hear Ryan shout.
"Just go Casey, I'll see you later." Then she walked away, trying to smile but failing.
I slowly walked out of the courtyard and back into the building, and Ryan pulled me in close to hold me tight.
"I missed you." He whispers. 
"Me too." I said honestly, letting a single secret tear fall.
"Let's go!" He says as he disappeared into the hallway, letting me follow.
"Wait up!" I yelled in the slightly echoed hallway while running behind.

We walked around for the remainder of lunch, letting him record absolutely everything, and he talked to himself and me while he did it. He seemed to record mostly people without them realizing, and recorded certain areas of the School very intensely. 
"Hey there Westley." He says whilst shoving the camera in a boys face.
"Ryan, what the fuck are you doing man!" He shouts while trying to push it away.
"School project!" He laughs with that same old scary menacing smile.
"Get away from me!" He runs away, and Ryan turns around to record him running.
"All to familiar sight in this School." He whispers to himself, before pointing the camera at me.
"Can we please put it away now." I said, and he just shook his head before running down the hallway to get up close and personal with a group of people trying to have a conversation.
"Stop!" I run and shout.
"What? I'm embarrassing right?" I wanted so badly to say yes, but that was just stone-cold of me to do.
"No! Let's just stop please?" I said, and then the bell rang.
"Later!" Ryan looks at the group and shuts the camera off.
