Ryder and I were walking home after the amazing date we had. When he won the game he pointed at me and hugged me with all his energy, he took me to an park, we went to a rollercoaster where I squeezed his hand really hard, and also to the horror house where he grabed me in order to keep me safe. Then we had dinner at Breaksticks, made many jokes, and talked a lot.
"Thanks Ryder, this night has been amazing."
"I'm glad you like it." he said and softly kissed me.
"Sweet Dreams love." he added while I entered home.
On Sunday, Artie asked me to go to help him with a project he was making, I was shocked to find there someone else.
"Why is Trothy Mouth here?" I asked.
" He is going to be your co-star in my short movie, and I thought it would be great for my cast to meet."
"And since we are going to play couple, maybe we should get in know each other better." Sam added.
"Wait, a couple?"
"Haven't you read the mail I sent you?" Artie asked.
" I haven't recieved anything."
"Well, here you got a copy." he said giving me a short script.
"I know we will make an amazing job together." Sam grinned.
"I know that if you keep on smiling at me like a stupid little ken doll, I'll punch you."
"Hey! It seems you two have chemistry..."
"No, actually I'm a senior..."
I stared at Artie annoyeed, how was I suppose to work with him? He had been asking me about the kiss since Friday, I've to turn of my phone so that he didn't intefer in my date with Ryder.
"Come one guys, let's make the first shoot." he said taking us to his basement or as he calls it "his studio"
"Okay Sam, here is your backstory, you are the quaterback of the football team with one thing on your mind, texting your girlfriend."
"Got it coach."
"Can we make this faster?" I asked.
"And while you do the typical stupid girl..." Artie continued.
"I don't do anything stupid." I interrupted.
"That's for sure, I read the poems that you wrote for the school blog." Sam agreed.
"You read?... I mean, thank you." I said surprised.
"She shouldn't be stupid, her character should be just like her, smart and you know, different." he added.
"Fine, rewrite." Artie said. "You are actually and intellectual teen poet who is driving to a big poetry party where everybody rhymes until they pass out"
"There you go, was that so hard?" Sam replied making Artie sighed.
"So you are texting your boyfriend, and in a moment of cruel irony, the two texting lovers crash and they die."
"That is so sad, young love at the moment of their first bloom, crushed" the blonde said.
"You know Sam, you surprise me." I admited making him smile and nod.
"Okay, everyone eyes on me." Artie said trying to make us focus. "And so we learn not to text and drive."
"Why can we be at the same car? If she were my girlfriend I would never wanna be apart from her." Sam said.
" Cause if you were in the same car, you wouldn't be texting each other, and you need to be texting each other, that is what causes the crash! I'll show you." he said showing us two small cars made of plastic. " This car crahes with this care, ball of flame, you die and you got the message."
"But why do we have to die? It's okay if I have to die, but she shouldn't." Sam replied."That would be depressing."
"You know he has got a point, I could just break my leg" I said.
"And I would visit you everyday in the hospital, bring you flowers and write you everyday."
"Aww, you would?" I asked.
"No, no, no, you are changing the entire movie, it doesn't make any sense and I need to make an amazing visual art project to assure a perfect start in college."
"Okay, we'll follow your rules, but calm down Artie." Sam said.
When we fished, Sam drove me home.
"How are things going on with Ryder?"
"Great, we kissed on Friday, and had the best date ever."
"You say?"
"Yeah."
"Kitty, stop it."
"Stop what?"
"Quit playing games with my heart." he said as I get out from the car.
"Thanks for the ride."
"You know you can dump Ryder, right?"
At Glee club he performe with the boys Quit Playing games with my heart by the Backstreet Boys.
Sam: Baby, oh
Even in my heart I see
You're not bein' true to me
Deep within my soul I feel
Nothing's like it used to be
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad baby
Quit play's games with my heart
Quit playin' games with my heart (with my heart)
Before you tear us apart (my heart)
Quit playin' games with my heart
I should've known from the start
You know you've gotta stop (from my heart)
You're tearin' us apart (my heart, my heart)
Quit playin' games with my heart
Ryder sang pointing at me: I live my life the way
To keep you comin' back to me
Everything I do is for you
So what is it that you can't see
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time, impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby
You better quit playin' games with my heart
Quit playin' games
Jake: Baby, baby the love that we had was so strong
Don't leave me hangin' here forever
Artie: Oh baby, baby this is not alright, let's stop this tonight
Baby, oh
The boys: Quit playin' games
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na baby
Na na na na na
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time, impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby
Quit playin' games with my heart
Quit playin' games with my heart
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na baby
Na na na na na
Ryder came to me and noticed something was wrong with me, he is smart, is not a surprise for me.
"What is wrong Kitty?"
"I'm fine."
"Now say it sincerly, look me in the eyes and tell me, what is it? who is the guy?"
"It is no one, seriously Ryder, I..."
"Kitty, great work yesterday, it's reminds me to our last winter, you and I all..."
"Shut up Sam, I don't know what you are talking about."
"You totally know what I'm talking about, but you don't want Ryder to find out that we made fire together and..."
"and then you broke my heart, I read that text Quinn sent to you.." I interrupted.
"I didn't know you have that hard winter..." Ryder said worried.
"I'm okay now that we are together..." I said hugging Ryder while I saw Sam making an effort to smile. Why do I miss that boy? He was suppose to be a winter adventure, no more!
Sam: I'm so glad you made time to see me.
How's life, tell me how's your family?
I haven't seen them in a while.
Me: You've been good, busier then ever.
We small talk, work and the weather
Sam: Your guard is up and I know why.
Cause the last time you saw me
Is still burned in the back of your mind.
Me: You gave me roses and I left them there to die.
Both: So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night,
And I go back to December all the time.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right.
Sam: I go back to December all the time.
Me: These days I haven't been sleeping
Staying up playing back myself leaving,
When your birthday passed and I didn't call.
Sam: And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
Realized that I loved you in the fall.
Both: Then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind.
Me: You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye.
Both: So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night.
And I go back to December all the time.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I'd go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
Sam: I go back to December all the time
Me: I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right,
And how you held me in your arms that September night,
The first time you ever saw me cry.
Sam: Maybe this is wishful thinking,
Me: Probably mindless dreaming
Sam: If we loved again I swear I'd love you right.
I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand.
Me: But this is me swallowing my pride,
Sam: Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night,
Both: And I go back to December.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I'd go back to December turn around and make it alright.
I'd go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
Me: I go back to December all the time.
Ryder left after I sang my last verse, he knew I meant the song, but not to him anymore. Sam Evans, how in Earth did I end up singing that Taylor Swift song with you? Oh, yeah, it was my idea...
Flashback...
"We should performe this song some day at glee club..." I said while we were slow dancing at his place.
"After hollidays?"
"Yeah, and we will, no matter what, deal?"
"Deal." he said kissing me softly.
End of flashback...
"Ryder, please come back... I want you with me..."
"I want you to be happy, I don't want to be the one that stops you."
"You make me happy, Sam was just a december boy, winter, nothing more, I've always wanted you. Let me prove it to you!"
"No, it's okay, I believe you, I love you so much." he said grabbing me close, he is soo sweet.
Me: Everyday, I try to play, another game
But my heart cant take it.
I try to find, another boy,
But all the while, I cant face it.
Why do I miss you so much?
I wanna stop this hurt inside
Oh baby please, give us one more try
(Marley and Tina: Baby Come Back)
I see you out with all your friends
Laughin it up as you pretend
To have a good time, (Tina: good time)
I know cause I'm living the same lie (Marley: same lie)
So one of us has got to say
We can't keep living this same way
So Ill be the one
Yeah Ill say it, Ill say it, Ill say it, Ill say it again
Baby Come back to me
In my heart I still believe
We were meant to be
Together so whatever it takes (Unique: Baby Come Back)
Baby come back to me
I should have never set you free
My baby
Come back (Sugar: Baby Come Back)
Me: You know you miss your baby
And I can see that you think about me
So why do you act like you dont care
Like all this love between us isnt there
I know that you're upset
I know I did you wrong
I know that you want me to pay for all the pain Ive caused
But in the end it all comes down to just one thing,
Its you and me
So I sing
Baby Come Back!
The girls: Baby Come back to me
In my heart I still believe
We were meant to be
Together so whatever it takes
Baby come back to me (Me: Come Back)
I should have never set you free
Me: My baby
Come back
(The girls: Baby Come Back!)
