Saving Him

Chapter 6

The drive on the way home consisted of silence and music. I had a lot of things running through my mind. Like why was I the first girl or person he ever brought there, and why did he say his sweet side only comes out when I'm around?

My thoughts were shut off when a particular song by three days grace came on.

Ryder turned the volume up just a tiny bit.

"You like three days grace?" I asked facing him.

"Yeah, well their okay. I like this song thought."

The words began coming through the speakers so Ryder kept quiet. After the first line, I instantly knew what this song was.

"This is Last to know, isn't it?" He nodded.

She just walked away, why didn't she tell me? And where do I go tonight? This isn't happening to me, this can't be happening to me,

She didn't say a word, just walked away, you were the first to say, that we were not okay, you were the first to lie, when we were not alright, this was my first love, she was the first to go, and when she left me for you, I was the last to know.

The song ended after another minute or so.

"I like your voice." Ryder spoke. I jumped a little in my seat.

"What?"

"You were singing softly. You sing good."

"Thanks. But you've already told me." I looked out the window and watch everything pass by really fast. Slowly but surely I started to close my eyes.

I felt a pair of arms go under my legs and one around my back. I was being lifted up. But I was to tired to open my eyes to see who it was. My head rested against the persons chest, and I smelt the cologne. Its Ryder.

I smiled in my head, and felt us walk up stairs. I felt the cool air of my house hit me, and Ryder still had me in my arms. I heard whispers, probably my parents.

Ryder started to walk again, and now up more steps. Probably heading to my room.

I was laid down onto something comfy. My bed.

I opened my eyes just a tiny bit to where I could see him but he couldn't tell my eyes were open. He crouched down and I carefully closed my eyes again.

I felt his warm hand take mine in his. His fingers went on between mine. He placed his other hand on mine.

"Thanks for an amazing night. You truly are an amazing girl. I'm glad your the first person I took to my spot. I feel as if I can trust you with anything, and I know you won't betray me. You don't see me as a monster, or you don't go all crazy over me. I guess that's why I like you." That's the last thing I heard before I heard my moms voice.

"You ready Ryder? I think she needs to sleep."

Dang it mom! Really?

I heard Ryder take in a deep breath. He let go of my hand, and walked away. I don't know who, but someone closed my door.

After two minutes when I thought it was safe I opened my eyes fully. I looked around my room to see if anyone is here. No one.

But now that thought ran through my mind, and every time I say it, my heart picks up speed and I get a tingly feeling in my stomach.

I think I might just happen like him too.

I know it's short, but I have my first day of school tomorrow.. I'll be a freshman in high school! I'm nervous and exited, so wish me luck.
But if I feel up to it, I'll write another chapter tomorrow!!
