Star sighed and excused herself from practice. she didn´t bother changing as she ran back to the school into the lunch room. She slowly walked over to Ryle and sat beside him ¨Ḧey¨ she said softly.

Ryle turns to her, a surprised look on his face.
"Uhh, oh hey Star!" he says composing himself looking up at her from his seat. "Whats up?"

¨I Have really good ears and heard your agrument Are You okay?¨ she asked.

"Oh geez you heard that?" He asked, doing the totally cliche (but completley appropriate) rubbing the back of his neck nervous thing. "Im okay, i just… need better friends I guess." He managed a small smile and then got elbowed by one of his buddies. Ryle gives him a small death glare and his friend moved so jaxon was in view trying to hide a giggle and guilty look. Ryle rolled his eyes and turned his attention back to Star. "How about we go for a walk down the hallway and get away from these baffons?"

Star smiled ¨Yeah sure¨ she said standing up .

Ryle stands up, grabs his bag and walks to the door, holding it his mothers voice in his head telling him to be a gentleman. "I cant belive you heard that argument. I was so careful to be quiet and not interupt your practice."

She walked out the door ¨Like I said I have very good ears¨ she said.

“i guess so” he said and flashed a smile at her, closing the door gently behind them and walking down the hallway.

¨So If you don´t mind me asking what are you fighting about¨ star asked.

“uhm… you actually. wait, that sounded bad. i’m sorry. i just, he’s a jerk and was going on about how i have a type and something about cheerleaders and what not. nothing important i guess. just an air headed jock who can’t keep his trap shut” Ryle said with a shrug hoping he didn’t confuse her or make her upset.

Star Sighed, ¨Ryle You Guys Are Best Friends Don´t Let a Stupid girl Ruin That It´s Just Not worth it¨ she said.

“Best friends shouldn’t act like that though. I would never try to tell him that his romantic preferences are wrong, or that he has a stereotype and needs to stick to it. that’s the difference” he shrugged again.

She sighed ¨Talk to him He´ll change his mind Tell him you have to accept my decisions or we can´t be friends¨ star said.

“Star. I’ve been friends with this idiot since practically birth. he’s always been like this and he’s never going to change.” he leaned with he’s back to a wall and put his hands up in defeat. “all i’m saying is bad energy doesn’t sit well with me, and that surely isn’t good energy.”

" don't ditch him" was.all she said before walking away her skirt swaying with her hips as she walked.

Ryle’s brow furrowed as he watched her walk away. He pushed himself off the wall and walked to his coaches office and knocked gently on the door.
“Hey coach can i get the keys to the locker room? i need to clear my head.”
“Sure son, anything you wanna talk about?” Coach Williams handing him the keys.
“No sir. Just wanted to work it off.” Ryle took the keys and walked to the locker room.

Weeks passed and Star hadn´t spoken a word to Ryle or Jaxson. She sat at the lumch table alone playing with her salad with her fork.

Ryle stared at Star from across the cafeteria. He’d spend most of his time working out or in practicing, trying to get his mind off of her. the only issue was she was a cheerleader, and was at everyone of his games cheering. He picked at his lunch tray and eventually shoved it aside and laid his heads in his arms, and Jaxon patted his back. Ryle had refused to talk about why he was upset, but still managed to keeps it mostly together for his games.

Star had every guy hitting on her flirting grabbing her waist but she pushed them aside because there was only one guy on her mind but she hadn't spoke to him in a while

Ryle sat with his head in his arms for a few minutes and couldnt bear sitting there knowing she was there too. He got up, slung his backpack over his shoulder and snatched up his tray. He tosses the food in the garbage and took off out the cafeteria door into the hallway, he walked quickly and took turns sharply. But a minute later he ended up at his destination and slowed down, took a breath, and walked into his AP Bio classroom. Mr. Martins,his teacher, looked up from the paper he was grading and raised his eyebrow.
"Would it be okay if i spent the period in the library? I've had a lot on my plate recently and could use a minute to breathe and get caught up on some work. I'll do todays classwork and have it to you first thing tomorrow."
"Sure kiddo, were continuing our work on DNA. Here's the notes packet and worksheet. I'll email you the notes presentation in 10-15 minutes." Mr. Martins handed him the papers and went back to grading.
Ryle walked back down the hallway towards the library, at a slower pace than before.

Star put her head down her legs hurt and for some reason so did her heart she saw ryle walk out in her heart broke she quickly dumped her tray and rushed out of the cafeteria she took a deep breath and ran to the bathroom crying her eyes out she passed by the library crying she sat against the stall door in the bathroom and cried and she didn't even know why

Ryle had almost made it to the library when he saw a familiar looking blur zoom past him. Ryle followed said blur down the hallway and it hit him. It was Star. His breath hitched and he took off after her. She made it to the bathroom before he could reach her and he hit the wall by the bathroom entrance.
' She'd been crying.' he thought. 'And I didn't even notice it was her until it was too late. He slid down the wall across from the bathroom entrance and put his head in his hands. He decided to wait for her to come back out to check on her, just like she checked on him all those weeks ago, before they had stopped talking abruptly.

Star sniffled " what's wrong with me why do I have to fall for people I can't have" she said she splashed her face with cold water and walked out her eyes were red and puffy and she was sniffling.

Ryle saw her come out of the bathroom and quickly got up from the floor, leaving his bag up against the wall. He didn't say anything, and enveloped her in his arms and pressed her against his chest.

Star' s breath got stuck in her throat but she didn't hesitate to wrapp her arms around him ' pressing her cheek against his chest. Her heart was beating a thousand times per second and she was positive Ryle could feel it

Ryle held her for a moment, soaking up her warmth, wishing he'd have done this sooner. He took a deep breath in and stepped back half a step and looked down at her.
"What's wrong?" Her eyes were still bloodshot from crying, but none the less he was still taken aback by just how gorgeous she was.

She laughed a bit and rubbed her eye " it's nothing really just crying over a guy" she said.

"Do I need to beat somebody up?" he said mostly serious but with a small chuckle.

She bit her lip with a smile " have you ever fallen for someone that I hurts to be around them because you. Know you can never have them" she asked.

Ryle's hands drop from around her and all but smack his legs. "Yea, umm i have." He looked down at her, hoping to God she couldn't tell he was talking about her.
'Idiot, she'll never like you' he thought to himself. 'what would a girl like that want with a guy like me'
