He Saved Me

Chapter two

As I walked through the gates of St Marys, I let out a sigh of relief, just made it!! I look up from under my hood to see, Ryder the schools bad boy, along with his group, hanging out with Mel (The schools slut / Queen bee as she likes to call herself) and her group (more like sucking each others faces off)

As I glanced at them, I noticed Ryder looking at me, so I quickly pulled my hood down, covering my face even more, and turned the other way hoping he didn't notice it was me.

As I was waiting for the bell to ring, I heard footsteps making their way towards me, I could feel my heart start beating really fast hoping it wasn't Ryder. I was about to turn around to see who it was, then the bell went saving me from any further embarrassment, I turn back around and made my way to the entrance of hell.

I walked to my locker, I pulled it open and grabbed my books and made my way to my first class. As I walked into the classroom, I looked around the room noticing I was the only one there or so I thought, I look up to the back where I would usually sit, to see there was someone sitting in the seat next to mine, as I got closer, I noticed it was the one and only Ryder black, for the first time ever he was early to class, which was very unusual and something else that was unusual was that he decided to sit next to me.

I make my way around him and placed my books on the table before pulling out my seat and sitting down. As I reached forward to grab my science book my pencil rolled off the table and landed on the floor, as I went to pick it up, there came a husky sexy voice

"Here have mine, I have plenty more" I look up to see Ryder holding a pencil in front of me.

"T-t-thank you R-R-Ryder" I say, reaching for the pencil from his outstretched hand, completely forgetting about the one I dropped.

As I grabbed my book, opening it to a new page ready for the class to start, the bell rings making the other students walk into the classroom, I got multiple stares and glares from other girls, probably because Ryder was sitting next to me.

Now how could I describe Ryder, well I guess you could say he is your typical "Bad Boy", like the Bad Boys you would read about in books with the whole cocky attitude, getting into fights and insulting anyone who he deems lower than him, but there was something different about Ryder, he didn't smoke, he didn't do drug and most of all I was the only one he didn't make threats to.

I am not sure why but I'm thankful, I don't want to be on the receiving end of one of his threats.

But there was something I was wondering about. When I first witnessed him threaten someone, he was threatening this guy who earlier shoved me so hard into the locker that I had a bruise on my shoulder for at least a week after, ever since that day when I think about it, it almost sounds like he was sticking up for me but knowing him something must have happened earlier in the day and Ryder was just finishing what the dude started. I mean who would stick up for me right?

"Crystal, Crystal, you in there girl!" Said a voice. I immediately recognized the voice, which belonged to my best friend Rose. Rose and I have been friends since we were in diapers, Rose is my only best friend, Rose has continued to stick by my side since she found out about my father's abuse towards me along with my other friends, but he doesn't know about the abuse. Rose always asks me to leave and call the police, but I keep telling her that if I was to leave and call them, I would most definitely be put into the foster care system which we didn't have in the center of town, I would most likely have to be transferred to the west junction, which is 80 miles from here, rose doesn't see the problem though. Rose suggests that I could go and live with her and her family, I don't want to go and live with her and become a burden to everyone, sometimes I wonder why Rose is still my friends, but I know I can't ask cause she would look at me with so much pity and sadness.

"Crystal, Crystal you in there" Rose yelled.

"W-w-what, oh sorry Rose, what were you saying" I say whilst looking at her.

"I was saying, I heard that Ryder, the Ryder black, was sitting next to you, girl why didn't you tell me he sat next to you."

"I thought it wasn't that important." I tell her whilst shrugging my shoulders "yea I mean, it was different but nothing to brag about."

I look up to see Rose, with her mouth open, looking at me like I just grew to heads and turned purple.

"Girls this is huge, The Ryder Black, Bad Boy of the school sat next you, he doesn't sit next to anyone except for his friends." The more I think about it, the more I realised it was weird.

Thank you, guys, for reading. I'm so sorry I haven't been updating a lot been busy with school and stuff, till next time. Bye ❤
