I dropped onto my knees and finally let all my emotions flow out of me. 

"Holly is that you?" Ryder cautiously asked as he put his hand on my shoulder. 

"Don't touch me!" I growled

"Holly I'm sor-"

I couldn't take it anymore, my bubble that was building up inside me finally burst. "Don't you dare act like you know me Ryder Black! The only person in this world that I truly trust is my best friend Jake! Just leave me alone, ok you don't actually care."

"Mark my words Holly West, I will find out what has made you become the way you have become because I truly do care about you." Ryder responded softly as he backed away from me.

Holly West has always been your typical bad girl. She never lets anyone walk over her and she pushes everyone away and has one true friend, Jake. But what happens on the day she meets Ryder Black, will she finally break down her walls or shut out everyone forever!
