"So don't test me Henry," Ryder said before pushing me backwards as I stumbled into a customer that was behind me.
"Hey, you both should watch it!" The girl yelled and I felt her intense stares burning into me but I didn't turn back to look at her as I kept my gaze on Ryder who smirked, brushed his shoulders before turning away from me as he left the shop.
I clenched my fists angrily, feeling my anger boil at his words. If there was anything that I knew very well about Ryder it was that he didn't like to be told what to do.
Tell Ryder to not drop the plates and that was exactly what he was going to do. Tell him not to play football and he was going to do that with his whole heart while smirking at you and secretly letting you know that he was doing exactly what you said he shouldn't.
Ryder, like me, hated a challenge and knowin

Henry's POV.I didn't know if I hadn't heard properly or if the woman had actually just asked of Ryder to Rose. While my brain tried to comprehend why a total stranger would ask for my greatest enemy like she knew him, my eyes were busy trying to find the resemblance in the little girl.It was like I hadn't seen her properly the first time and not my mind was finally putting the pieces together. She had black curly hair that was decorated with ribbons that looked like sword and armor.Her eyes were the most fascinating thing about her. They were grey, the same shade as Ryder's! And I could finally see how she was just like the female version of Ryder. The same way she frowned was the same way he did.And even though he had smiled only when we were younger, they were exactly similar to his. There was no doubt that this was Ryder's little sister!And this woman?I looked back at her, she had bright b

Eleanor's POV."Go Lions!" Students yelled as they walked into the hallway.It was a new week at school and with the opening game this weekend, everyone was doing their best to cheer on the school Football team. Posters of Henry were everywhere in the hallways and in the classroom, as he was the face of the team, captain and star player.His team members' pictures were also pasted too but not as much as his. I tried to look away from his picture when I encountered one but I just couldn't, those green eyes were hard to look away from."Go Lions!" Students cheered as they walked past me, holding a huge hand made design of a lion's head. I was surprised I hadn't seen the lion mascot yet.I slammed my locker shut as Tina talked beside me about her cat and how he had gotten better over the weekend.My ears were almost falling apart from the whole cat thing, but I knew how important it was to Tina so I pretend

Eleanor's POV.I gasped in shock at Jane's words but it was like my tongue has been tied up or my brain frozen, unable to conjure words to respond back to her."What? Cat got your tongue or you've been using the tongue for other things?" She asked as the girls laughed at her attempt at a joke."Give it back," I finally said as I reached for the piece of paper in her hand.A few students had stepped to the entrance behind me as they watched the scene and even went to call the others who had settled in their seats already.I was starting to feel really embarrassed from the attention I was getting from the students.Jane drew back her hand as she laughed, taking the paper away from my reach."What is going on with you and Henry anyways? You seem to be trying so hard to get to him," Jane said and a few of the students gasped from behind me and I shook my head."Nothing. We are

Henry's POV.I stopped in my tracks when Eleanor went out of view and I frowned. It was the first day of school this week and she had already started crying. It pained me that I hadn't seen her or been here earlier. And as George drew my attention to Eleanor, I felt the little strip of happiness torn away from me in a flash.Though half of her face was shielded by her hair,I still knew she was in tears and as I ran to her, it broke me that she didn't want to see me.Now she was out of my reach and I stood there, confused and angry."What was that about?" Leopard asked as he came to stand beside me and I didn't respond to him as I looked back at where Eleanor had been standing to see pieces of paper littered around the floor.Has someone torn her homework? Because I knew she must have been busy doing it last night when she slept with h

Eleanor's POV.I went to the school roof after the girls had left the bathroom, thankfully I didn't find anyone here and the sun had started to shine down.I found a small bench and shade above it so I walked to it, dropping against it.My mind flashed with the image of Henry running towards me and the tears filled my eyes once more as I blinked them back and rested my back against the chair.Immediately, my phone chimed in my pocket and I took it out to find a text from Charles asking me if I wanted to hang out tonight..I sighed and texted back a no and placed the phone in my pocket as I looked up at the sky tiredly.I hadn't gotten enough sleep last night either and right now I didn't want to go back to class even though it was going to get me into trouble. It was better to have detention than go back to face everyone's intens

Eleanor's POV.As I took the stairs downstairs and back to class, I couldn't stop the blush that still filled my cheeks as I could still feel the faint touch of Henry's lips.I had totally forgotten that we were still fake dating, with everything that's been going on, I hadn't remembered and while I was still thinking about going to the game I knew I had to.After totally ignoring Charles's call, I knew I had no choice but to go to the football game because in the end this was all because of him, to show him that I had moved on and I was completely over him.I sighed as I saw Henry up ahead meet up with his friends as they shook hands and left the hallway to another class. Unfortunately, I wasn't going to be in the same class as him because I had Science.Thankfully, someone had come to school drunk and I was no longer the topic of the day. It was

Eleanor's POV.There was a loud eruption of laughter in the room and I breathed in the scent of sweat and I pinched the shirt of my face, frowning at the pair of eleven eyes fixed on me and Tina.I felt embarrassed and wanted to run out of the room when Henry's eyes widened and he smacked the head of a boy next to him."What the fuck Ray?" He asked as the boy laughed nervously before waving at me."Sorry, I thought it was that weird girl in chemistry who's been following me around the whole day." Ray apologized and Henry shook his head at him before he stalked towards me.From the corner of my eyes I saw Tina step backwards shyly and to be honest I wanted to do the same too. Everyone was watching us and I felt so shy I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me whole.I finally saw Henry properly as he stepped out in front of his opened locker. He had taken off his shirt revealing a toned chest which did pack

Eleanor's POV.I couldn't think straight the whole time I cleaned out the boys locker room with Tina. My mind kept wandering to what I had done to Henry and it was even worse when the rest of the team looked at me like I had murdered him or something."Why did you think he reacted that way?" Tina asked as we swept the floor and I shook my head."I don't know. But I think he got the scar from something he doesn't want to remember. He usually acts like that if I mention something he doesn't want to think about," I said, remembering when I had mentioned his mother.My best guess was that his mother had done that to him."He seems to have a lot of secrets, don't you think?" Tina asked again."Yeah," There were a lot of things that Henry had kept from me and while I knew we were still trying to know each other, it still both

Four weeks LaterEleanor P.O.VIt had been four weeks of my encounter with Henry and to say I have moved on was an understatement, I made sure I had nothing to do with him. Everytime he tried to approach me in school, I avoided him at all cost.When I told Tina about the entire situation, she felt remorseful for me. I regret not listening to Tina when I had the opportunity to.The final of the competition was tomorrow and apparently, my school had made it to the final to square of against the West High school. The final had been the major topic for discussion and I was glad about it. When the rumour of Henry and I not being together reached the ears of every student in the school, most girls were happy about it. Apparently, Jane had taken her time to make sure to give out a fabricated story about how Henry and I stopped talking and she made it looked like I was the gold digger. Despite the fact that I wasn't surprised about Jane's lies

Eleanor P.O.VThe following day in school, it was lunch time and I decided to invest my time into reading some new fantasy novels when I felt someone's presence."Nice book you got there, the only problem is, it isn't as interesting as you would ever be" Yes, you guessed right, the flower girl leader Jane was seated on the same table with me and this time, she was not with her minions."I am trying to read here please" I replied politely hoping she would leave me alone."So I don't need to ask about the rumours going round that Henry and you are dating. Apparently, from how i see it, the rumours are true. Especially seeing how he reacted to your presence in the last games" I began to wonder what and where she was driving at with this conversation."Do you really think Henry loves you?" She asked. I dropped my book and looked at her for a minute."Look, talk all you want, but the truth remains that you are only jealous about thi

Henry P.O.V"The strange man took me up to my rooms and closed the door behind me. I was confused and scared for a moment. What was he trying to do? I thought to myself and then i watched as he turned around and gave me one of the most sinister and sadistic smiles I have ever seen in my life.He brought out his belt and flogged the hell out of me. That day would forever be in my memory, I was only nine and I was physically abused by a stranger.The worst part of the entire scenario was the fact that my mom was standing at the door watching the entire time, unfazed by what happened"Flash back endedI was all emotional at this point but I didn't need to allow Eleanor see those emotions. I don't want to be considered weak because I am never weak and will never be.Eleanor P.O.VThough he would deny it, I could see the pain in Henry's eyes as he spoke. This guy had so many untold emotions at the moment just by staring at his eyes and it

Eleanor P.O.VIt wasn't till I checked the clock that I got conscious of the fact that I had been watching all of the Jimmy Fallon's show till late at night. The show itself was just captivating to watch, with the series of interviews from various celebrity. My favorite had to be the interview with Kevin Hart. Getting up from the couch, I stretched myself and decided to go sleep. Maybe Henry wouldn't be coming over like he said he would. Even though I would not admit to him, Henry's presence always made me feel warm.Passing through the rooms, I heard loud moaning and I don't know why I had to stop to check the room it was coming from. Mother wasn't around and my dad happened to have been away for close to three months.Apparently, the moaning was coming from Annie's room. Typical Annie and having sex without regard for sensitive people like me.I was about going till I heard a rather familiar voice and I decided to eavesdrop on the co

Eleanor P.O.VThe second half came by and Ryder was still where he was; seated beside me and though we haven't spoken since the exchange of intense glance between Ryder and Henry, one thing was evident in hia new facial reaction, he was definitely in deep thought."Okay, I think I need to address something real quick, are you really that much of a stalker" His words took me by surprise, I wasn't expecting him to speak while his gaze fixated somewhere else. He may possibly have a sharp Peripheral vision then, I concluded to myself."Secondly I don't remember you being dumb, so why aren't you talking" He asked, this time his eyes turned to look at me and I cowered in fear."Uhmm....... nothing" I said, simply scratching the back of my hair. He was about saying something when the entire crowd cheered upon seeing the faces of the team and i was forced to check for Henry.Something strange about Henry's new countenance; he seemed really fo

Henry's P.O.VThe opening game was here and I couldn't be more ready than I could be at the moment. Fixing up my boots at the locker room, Coach head in and from his face, I could tell he was fully ready himself. Everyone were gathering up their spots kit and surprisingly George had arrived late, causing Coach to tell at him."Alright everyone, listen up real quick" I fixed the lace of my boots and looked up at the coach, same as the rest of the squad."The day we have all been waiting for has arrived. Now I know many of you are nervous for the first game and indeed I gotta admit, it's only natural for every player. I need y'all to know that what ia necessary to win isn't about the strategies you are seeing here nor my ability to quickly make in good tactics. Those are just mere words and though it is part of the substance for the games, it doesn't necessarily encapsulate your ability to win the game. Last year finals was a disaster and though I ca

Eleanor's POV.The end of the week came quicker than I expected with everything that's been going on with Henry, I had a new feeling that was brewing inside of me.Things with Tina weren't all that great either, she still hadn't spoken to me since the day at the boys locker room and while I wanted to be the first to say hello when we met at the lockers, I was constantly reminded of what she had said and I still felt hurt."Hey, are you coming for my game tonight?" Henry asked me as we walked into school together and I shook my head.In all honesty, I wanted to be there for Henry at his game but I didn't want him to know I was excited about it and thinking of going to support him so I decided to act all though and uninterested when I was actually excited inside."Why? Orange High is a good competitor, not as great as us but they are able to give us a good time. A

Henry's POV.When I got home, a feeling of dread came over me and I pulled my bike to a stop parking just outside my home.It was dark inside and lonely. A part of me wanted to run away and back to Eleanor's house but I knew it would make me seem like a little bitch so I took off my helmet and walked towards the porch.I pulled open the door and I was met with darkness, the sweet scent of air freshener filled my nose and I knew the cleaning lady had arrived just this evening after I left.I didn't bother putting on the lights as I was used to coming home to the darkness so I just navigated through the stairs and into my room, slamming the door shut behind me.Throwing my bag on the floor, I took of my jacket and fell on my bed, closing my eyes as I reimagined Eleanor's face in my head.I've never felt

Henry's POV.I listened to the explanation Eleanor was giving me concerning the simultaneous equation I was having troubles with and while I already fully understood it and was even solving questions on my own, it was still nice having her explain it to me.After she had offered to tutor me in my weak subjects and confessed the real reason she had done the homework for me.Something about the way I saw her changed. It was like she was a whole new person and I found myself drawn to her.Originally, I had wanted to kiss her earlier because she was looking so beautiful underneath me but right now, I wanted to kiss her because of the person she was.She was beautiful no doubt, but at the same time I could see how beautiful she was inside too. She was caring, thoughtful and very smart too.It's been a while since any one had done anything for me, even while I was a child and my mother would leave me alo
