[size=7pt]she lives in a fairy tale
somewhere too far for us to find
forgotten the taste and smell
of the world that she's left behind
it's all about the exposure the lens i told her
the angles were all wrong now
she's ripping wings off of butterflies

keep your feet on the ground
when your head's in the clouds
well go get your shovel
and we'll dig a deep hole
to bury the castle, bury the castle
go get your shovel
and we'll dig a deep hole
to bury the castle, bury the castle
ba da ba ba da ba ba ha [/size]

[size=8][font=georgia]Good, I didn't have to drive myself. That was a plus, but the question is what am going to wear? I have that short black dress, but I don't know if a dress is my kind of thing. Oh well. Glancing over at Ryder at his he walked past me, I couldn't help smirk. I could easily pass him, but I'll let him have his little 'I'm faster than you' moment.

He stepped in class, I heard a few words but not much. Just then Ryder called to me, I smiled a bit and rolled my eyes stepping into the classroom. "Yes Romeo." I answered, glancing over at the teacher who did nothing but glare. "Sorry, my cat died." I shrugged then went to my seat. Sitting down, I glanced over at Ryder who seemed to be stuck in his drawing. He was always doodling on his paper, I never got to them unless I peaked at them but even then it was hard to see. The only actual person that got to his drawings that I know of was his ex, that girl broke his heart for another guy. And they call me cold hearted. I was the only one that was able to pull him out of his depression, it took some work and time but I managed. Although I don't know how we went from helping each other, to fighting and hating each other.

[size=8][font=georgia]I noticed Ryder pretty much slammed his notebook shut as that Darica tapped his shoulder. I was about to look away but then they got closer and closer, I didn't listen to a word she said I was too confused with what was happening. Fucking great, that asshole kissed me when has a girlfriend. And he was my first kiss! Not how I planned my first kiss to go. Ugh, fuck my life.

Shaking my head, I looked down at notebook pretending I wasn't watching but it was only moments later that he was saying my name and asking me a question. Something about ice cream, I really didn't want to go because I'm pretty sure that's what he and that girl were just talking about. My left hand balled into a fist but I quickly released it as I slowly pulled my gaze over towards to Ryder, I gave him a small nod. "Yeah, sure, whatever." I said then looked down at my desk. I could just kill him right about now, ugh I can't stand him. He's such a player.

[Center][font=times new roman]Is she trying to get her ass beat? I went to say something but Ryder beat me to it. He just like exploded out of nowhere, but if I would have said something it probably would have been a lot worse and it wouldn't have just been words. When he finishes the girl is dead silent with expression on her face, Ryder has now left the room clearly angry. I wanted to go calm him down but I didn't want to get in trouble. Just then he grabbed me and dragged me out of the classroom, of I hit my knee on the desk but said nothing about it as I walked out with him. It was only moments later that he stopped walking and as soon as he did I grabbed his wrist knowing he'd swing his fist into the wall
"Why did you drag me out here? And would you like to explain what happened back there?" I asked him with an eyebrow raised and a firm grip on his wrist.

[align=center][size=8][font=georgia]I was quiet confused at first, he just dropped to his knees all of sudden but then his words started putting things together. My offer, does he really want to come stay at my house? Though I don't think he has much of an option. I flinched at his next set of words, he clearly doesn't know what I go through on a daily basis. Whatever. And then he showed me his scars, my eyes went wide. He's gonna kill himself if he keeps this up. He doesn't need to be here at school breaking down like this but I can't stop him now. I knelt down to his level and wrapped my arms around him in a hug, I wasn't sure what to say so I just held him there in my arms. But why is he telling me this and not one of his girlfriends? "Then come stay with me for awhile, you shouldn't be going through that kind of stuff ." I whispered. Slowly, I lift him up on his feet of course I struggle at first but I managed to do it. "Wait here." I told him and released him from my hug. With that I turned around and went to the classroom, I grabbed my stuff and shoved it all into my book bag, I glanced at the teacher when I left the room again but said nothing. "Come on, let's go get some ice cream and then we can go to my place." I smiled at Ryder as I pushed him towards the school doors.

[size=8][font=georgia]Now I know I can give people cute sad looks, but I'm not about to do that to Ryder. I'm sure that's the last thing he wants, he stated earlier that he doesn't want me having pity for him. I mean I do, but I won't show it. Now I was a bit surprised by his words, I've been known to cheer people up Ryder would know but I didn't think I made him feel safe. You would think with all the fighting we do he wouldn't turn to me for something like this, but I guess we do know more about each other than anyone else knows about us.

But his words made me smile, it was nice to know I didn't scare him or anything. Although I must say, he looks pretty damn sexy when he bites his lip. Wait, what? No! God, Sofia stop it! We're just friends that argue a lot, that's it stop thinking about that. I was a bit surprised when he grabbed my hand, I don't know what it was all about though. I didn't bother look away from him as he spoke, but I really didn't like him going to his house but he is going to need clothes I guess. But why is he so worried about me getting hurt? He should know by now that I know the meaning of standing my ground, I've stood my ground with him haven't I? I didn't break down and give into him like the rest of these chicas now did I?

With a shake of my head, I pulled my hand free from his gasp and smiled at him. "We can stop by there, but you're not going in alone. I'm going in with you no matter what." I told him, there was no way he was going inside that house alone. He could end up beaten even more. With that I ruffled his hair and grabbed his wrist, dragging him outside and to my car. Carlos will just walk him, I think that was his plan anyways. Whatever. "Should we go now or later?" I asked him, slipping my book bag off my shoulders and pulling out my keys.

[Center][sub][color=black]His father wouldn't be the first male to lay a hand on me, my father was a drunk when he was in my life. He was an abusive drunk so I'm sure you can figure out the rest. When he told me why his father went to jail, my heart stopped and my stomach flipped. I bit my bottom lip taking in his words, but it was only moments later that I was smiling at Ryder. "I should be fine, don't worry." I told him then climbed into my car, I've dropped Ryder off before so I know where he lives. I started the car and waited for Ryder to get in, once he was in I drove to his house.

When we reached his house, I felt my heart pounding. I swallowed hard and shut my car off. I let out a small sigh before getting out of the car, just as I shut my car door I seen a figure leave the window and head for the door. This isn't gonna be pretty, but it has to be done. I walked slowly to Ryder's side and waited for him to get out.
