Ryle walked up to the table and cleared his throat to get his friends attention. "Hey guys, for those of you that dont know her, this is Star." Jaxon looked like he was about to open his mouth to say something dumb and Ryle shot him a look that told him that he should keep his comments to himself. "Star this is⦠everybody."
She smiled and Rachel screamed " star your one of us you have a football hottie" she said.
Ryle looked over at Rachel and grinned at her, and then looked over to her boyfriend Damion and they exchanged the 'Ohmigod here she goes' look.
Rachel hugged her " oh my gosh can't wait for your baby" star looked at her " okay Rachel were seventeen I'm not gonna be a teen Mom" she said.
Ryle facepalmed and looked at Rachel. "I'm sorry, but i don't need you to scare this one away. Remember the last time you said something like that to one of my girlfriends? She broke up with me the next day crying about how I wanted to take her virginity because somebody", he looked at Rachel with a 'that somebody is you' look, "asked her when we we're going to 'do it' and she'd join the 'no virginity club.'"
" well she talks about you non stop about great cu-" Rachel started but star clamped a hand over her mouth
Ryle reached over with his free hand and pulled Star's hand off of Rachels mouth, holding both of her hands now tight enough that she couldnt break free but not hard enough to hurt her. "Continue that sentence" He said to Rachel, a playful grin on his face that he flashed at both of the girls.
" Rachel I swear to God I'll kill you" star said.
" Well she always talks about how attractive you are and when you guys stopped talking it broke her"
" Thank you" star said sarcastically
"Don't even get me started on that bag of bricks" Jaxon spoke up. "All he did was huff and puff and lift weights. He was so upset and off kilter he only ever wanted to be in the gym or on the field. He didn't even say happy birthday to me last week!"
"Jaxon!" Ryle said cutting him off "Your birthday is in June. It's the beginning of September. Don't make her feel bad for you."
It was too late " Aw Jaxson I'm sorry " she said with a pout.
" But seriously all she ever wanted to do was work out or play basketball" another cheerleader Dove said.
Ryle let go of the hand that had covered rachels mouth and brought their entertwined hands up and around her head, resting his arm across her shoulders, forcing her arm to cross over her chest to hold his. "Sounds like a match made in Heaven" Jaxon said with a snort.
"Sounds like it to me" Ryle said kissing Star on the temple. "But i bet i could bench more than he can" He joked.
Star giggled shaking her head with a smile
"Actually, if I stretched, I probably could bench this whole person." Ryle said, gesturing to Star. "But i dont think she wants to be benched, its not an ideal thing to do." He laughed at himself.
She rolled her eyes playfully " your such a show off" she said starting to let go of his hand.
"Well I'll take every chance I get to show you off." He said winking at her. "Hey hey put that back. You're keeping my hand warm."
She shook her head grabbing his hand once more a slight blush on her cheeks.
Just after she took his hand again the bell for the next period rang. "Well i guess thats our que to get a move on. Where to next Star?" Ryle asked looking down at her.
She shrugged " I don't know I usually go to the art room" she said
"Then lets go to the art room" he said, turning to head out to the hallway and go to the art room. Before fully turning around he put his hand up and said bye to all of his friends, and let Star say her goodbyes to her friends.
Star let go of him completely and said good bye to her friends and started walking towards the hall
Ryle walked after Star and grabbed her hand again. "tsk tsk you're gonna make my hand cold again" he said with a grin. He pushed to door open with his free hand and let her walk out first and then followed her out to the hallway towards the art room.
She giggled interlocking thier fingers once she got to the art room she pushed the door open and sat in the teachers seat letting go of his hand.
"Taking over as teacher for the period, huh?" He said, a smile on his face as he sat at the large square table. The table was most definitley meant for 4-8 people, but you can bet that if he was sitting at the table, he'd cover all of it in homework.
She put her feet on the desk and bit her lip
"Alright Ms. Teacher. Teach me something i dont know." He said, pulling a chair up and resting his elbows on the desk.
