“okay” he tightened his arms around her and rested his chin on her head until she stopped crying.

" I'm sorry," she apologized again
“don’t apologize. you have nothing to apologize for.” he stepped back a half step and took her hand in his. “are you ready to go back over there?” he looked down at her puffy eyes and knew there would be a million questions but he would silence every one of them when they went back to the bleachers.
She nodded but did not smile
He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and led her back to the bleachers. All of the cheerleaders came over trying to comfort herbut he hushed them and pushed them away. The only people he let near her were Jaxon and Rachel. He knew Jaxon wouldn't ask and Rachel would only try to calm her down.
Three football players walked over the ones who were rude about everything " oh look star is crying did your boyfriend finally break up the you" they taunted
"Fuck off" Ryle stood up and placed himself between them and Star. Jaxon follwed suit and Rachel scooted closer to Star.
"You heard him boys, get moving." Jaxon said, cossing his arms over his chest.
" what are going to do?" They asked as tears started rolling down Stars cheeks again
"Look at her. Do you really want to be the cause of her tears?" Jaxon said, stepping slightly aside. "I wouldn't. But I will be the cause of your tears."
"Need i remind you boys that Jaxon's father is head coach of this team? He'll have your asses off this team and in a boarding school in less than a week. I'd walk away if I were you."
" not gonna stick up for yourself babygirl" he said
"What she does is none of your business." Ryle said.
Rachel spoke up this time, "Can't you idiots see you're upsetting her?" She stood up and pushed between Ryle and Jaxon. "She's crying for God sakes and you three want to stand here and harass her and her boyfriend. Can't you all let people live their lives in peace, or must you make everyones lives a living Hell?" She looked like she might throw a punch, so Jaxon tucked an arm around her stomach and pulled her back so she was slightly behind himself and Ryle.
Star stood up and the boys got in her face " we Know how you are you slut" he said
"Oh hell no" Ryle lifted his hand to swing but Jaxon knew what was going to happen so he caught his arm and pushed him back. Ryle let him and wrapped his arms around Star, but kept his eyes on the boys. Rachel and Jaxon stepped between the boys and the couple.
They all heard a booming voice at the base of the bleachers. "If you boys don't want to be charged for harassment charges, I would walk away. And I will personally see to it that you will never step foot on this campus, or on any football fields again." Everyone turned and saw Jaxon's dad, the assistant coach, and the cheer coach standing against the railing at the bottom of the bleachers.
The boys stormed away and star slumped to the ground looking straight ahead
Ryle dropped next to her and pulled her over to him. "Are you okay sweetheart?" Rachel asked, squatting in front of the pair, not really sure who she was asking. Jaxon nodded to his dad and turned to face the trio behind him, waiting for the response to Rachel's question.
Star shook her head not loosing focus
Ryle wrapped his arms around her, and rested his head on her chin, holding her tightly against his chest. His legs were on either side of her.
She was shaking uncontrollably
Rachel sat down completely, and began rubbing Star's knee. "It's going to be okay" she whispered a few times. Jaxon sat on the bleacher behind Ryle, unsure what to do.
" he's right Im just a slut" she said
"No, you're not." Ryle and Rachel say at the same time. "Why would you think that?" Jaxon says, Rachel gives him a dirty look but Ryle looks down at Star, waiting for her reaction.
" My father couldn't afford medication and I had to date alot of guys they payed me to date them and I did until I had enough to get him medication" she said
"That doesn't make you a slut. That makes you a thoughtful, caring, loving daughter. You did your dead level best for him." Ryle said, holding her tighter.
She sighed but nodded
Rachel continued to rub Star's knee and Ryle held her tight, wanting to never let go.
