Disclaimer: I don't own Glee but I wish I did!
Its last period and I'm in history. I keep looking up at the clock, when will it turn 4:00! I have a date tonight! Well not a date but… still im excited! Oh speaking of that what time is ryder picking me up? I get out my phone and text:
Me: ryder, what time r u picking me up tonite?
I wait a few minutes before my phone vibrates and I receive a text.
Ryder: oooh is someone excited! ;) P.S 8:00 is that k?
Uurrgghh he's so frustrating, why does he have to be sarcastic all the time!? Im not gonna lie though, its kinda cute.
Me: shutup ryder! Your so annoying! Do I hav 2 dress up tonight?

Me: nah its fine we will go to breadstix!
Ryder: k! oops teacher can c my phone g2g! Xxx

Me: kk, see u tonite! Xoxo
Risky move kitty cat! Before I knew it the had lesson ended and it was the end of the day, which meant I was closer to the 'date' with ryder!
~ That Night! ~
Never before has it been so hard to choose an outfit to wear! Ive been on so many dates but ive never really cared what I wore! But its sooo hard!
Finaly I pick out an outfit. I am wearing high waisted shorts with a casual t-shirt that says 'don't hate me cause im beautiful!' and some heels. My hair is down in waves and im wearing a pair of hoop earrings. 10 mins later I hear a knock on the door. I run down the stairs and open the door to see ryder standing there looking very handsome in his jeans, t-shirt and jumper. Very casual but nice.
"hey ryder!" I say.
"hey kitty cat!" he says back. Wait are we on the nickname basis!?
"you look nice!" says ryder. This makes my heart flutter.
"you to! Come in!" I grab his hand and take him into the kitchen where my mom Is cooking dinner.
"mom this is ryder!" I say proudly. If it had been any other guy I would defintly not of let them in my house.
"oh ryder lynn!" my mom says. "ive heard a lot about you!" OMG! I palm my face into my hands. Why would she say that! Ryder glances at me and smiles.
"good things I hope!" he says and winks at me.
"oh of course! she talks about you all the time! Yesterday she said…" but before she could say anymore I interrupt her and say.
"okay! I think weve heard enough of that!" I grab ryders arm and drag him out of the kitchen. "bye mom!" I shout.
"bye, mrs wilde!" ryder shouts to.
"bye kitty! Bye ryder!" she shouts back.
we both get into the car, him on the drivers side. He turns the key and gets ready to go but before we drive off he says:
"you talk about me all the time?" he has a huge smirk on his face.
"shut up and drive!" I say, trying to change the subject.
We sit there in silence for a little while before I hear him humming.
Ryder:
I've been looking for a driver who is qualified
So if you think that you're the one step into my ride
I'm a fine-tuned supersonic speed machine
Got a sunroof top and a gangster lead
So if you feel it, let me know, know, know
Come on now, what you waiting for, for, for?
My engine's ready to explode, explode, explode
So start me up and watch me go, go, go, go
Get you where you wanna go, if you know what I mean
Got a ride that's smoother than a limousine
Can you handle the curves? Can you run all the lights?
If you can, baby boy, then we can go all night
I finally recognise what song he's singing! Shut Up And Drive! I decide to join in on the chorus!
Ryder and Kitty:
'Cause it's 0 to 60 in 3.5
Baby, you got the keys
Now shut up and drive, drive, drive
Shut up and drive, drive, drive
We both start laughing until our chests hurt!
"we sound really good together!" he says between laughs.
"I know right! We should do a duet sometime!" I say back.
After we finished laughing I turn round to him and say.
"can I be honest. I haven't had that much fun in ages!" looking straight at him.
"I agree with you!" he says. We both laugh again once more.
Ryder turns a corner and we arrive at breadstix, we get out the car and link arms as we stroll into the doors. We get a booth. We talk for a long while, mostly him complaining about football, me complaining about cheerleading, him cracking jokes every 2 minutes that crack me up even if they aren't funny and just other stuff. We are deep in the middle of conversation when a high pitched screech enters everyones ears. Everyone looks to the stage and sees a waiter at the microphone.
"sorry about that!" she says timidly. "I just wanted to announce that its kareoke night tonight so just come up and say what song you want and sing!" everyone cheers and claps. Me and ryder exchange glances.
"you said you wanted to do a duet sometime, that sometime is now!" he smiles and grabs my wrist. He pulls me up to the stage. He whispers to the DJ and the music starts. I instantly recognise the song.
Kitty:
Right from the start
You were a thief
You stole my heart
And I your willing victim
I let you see the parts of me
That weren't all that pretty
And with every touch you fixed them
Ryder and Kitty:
Now you've been talking in your sleep, oh, oh
Things you never say to me, oh, oh
Tell me that you've had enough
Of our love, our love
Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
We're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
Ryder (Kitty):
I'm sorry I don't understand
Where all of this is coming from
I thought that we were fine
(Oh, we had everything)
Your head is running wild again
My dear we still have everythin'
And it's all in your mind
(Yeah, but this is happenin')
Ryder and Kitty:
You've been havin' real bad dreams, oh, oh
You used to lie so close to me, oh, oh
There's nothing more than empty sheets
Between our love, our love
Oh, our love, our love
Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
I never stopped
You're still written in the scars on my heart
You're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
Kitty:
Oh, tear ducts can rust
I'll fix it for us
We're collecting dust
But our love's enough
You're holding it in
You're pouring a drink
No nothing is as bad as it seems
We'll come clean
Ryder and Kitty:
Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
Oh, we can learn to love again
Oh, we can learn to love again
Oh, oh, that we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again Everyone cheers which makes me smile wide, I never get standing ovations; I never get solo's for that matter. Ryder sees me smile and hugs me. I feel so comfortable in his arms, content and happy. Ryder is like a giant teddy bear! I pull away from him and he looks at me and says:
"you sounded amazing!" I try to hide it but I go bright red. He takes my hand and pulls me over to our booth.
"no! WE sound amazing!" I say enthusiastcly. He laughs.
"I know! We should ask mr schue if we could do a duet together at sectionals!" he says.
"good idea! Wait.. he wont give it to us…" I say disappointed.
"why not?" he asks, disappointed too.
"because I can see the set list now. A ballad between blaine and marley, an group number and a solo for tina." I say miserably.
"but It cant hurt to try you know!" he says hoping I will change my mind.
"well yes… but… ill think about it." I say.
"pleaseeee!" he begs.
"I said ill think about it, okay!" I say frustrated. He looked sad.
We sit in silence for a little while before ryder breaks the silence by saying "kitty cat has got her claws out!" which of course makes me burst out with laughter. We talk a liitle longer until I look at my watch and its 10:00. Ryder notices and says he'll take me home. I offer to pay but ryder insists as he is a gentlemen. We leave breadstix and head home
~ At Kitty's House ~
We are standing outside my front door when ryder says:
"I had a lot of fun tonight!" he says a little quietly just in case my mum hears.
"Same here!" I say back.
"im gonna be honest, I wasn't sure how you would act tonight because normally at school your really mean and bitchy but tonight I saw the nice side of Kitty who is fun and kind and caring. I think you should show that Kitty more often!" Everything he was saying was true and part of me agreed with him.
"ryder, I have a reputation to uphold and joining glee club put it way down so I have to be extra bitchy now then ever before." I say using that as an excuse.
"fine, whatever…" he says and looks away. He suddenly looks at me again and says. "talking of glee club, are you going to do that duet with me or not?"
"well…" he sticks out his bottom lip and gives me a puppy dog look which drives me crazy, who can say no to that? "fine!"
"yes!" he says and jumps around excitedly! "nowone can say no to the puppy dog face!" this makes me laugh.
"we need to sort out a song and choreography and other stuff so ill text you and we can figure out a day when you can come over mine."
"yay! Thank you!" he says and hugs me again. I receive that same fuzzy feeling again, I wish I could stay in his arms forever. Unfortuntly forever dosent last long because he draws away and walks towards his car.
"bye Kitty cat!" he says and waves.
"bye ryder!" I say and wave back.
As he climbs into his car he blows me a kiss. This makes my heart flutter and I blush but I cover it up by rolling my eyes. I open my front door and walk into my house. First I take of my shoes and then drop my bag on the floor. I then trudge upstairs and throw myself backwards onto the bed. Staring up at the ceiling I think to myself. "do I like Ryder Lynn?"
Coming up in the next chapter: after realising that she likes Ryder, Kitty tries to figure whats going on in his head. Does he like her too?
Might include a small section from ryders point of view what do you think?
