The Alpha and the Mistake

Chapter 20

"See this isn't so bad," Ryder said, leading me into one of the tables in the cafeteria-style dining room. He only let go of my hand when we sat down with the others. I didn't say anything back. What could I say? He was just so nice and seemed authentic. It all left me so confused. Harry made it seem like I'd lose everything if I stayed, but Ryder was right. He never asked me to stay, not really. It was all so confusing and gave me a headache.

"Hey Brookie," Dean said, waving to me.

Several people from the other tables looked over at ours, and I hunched up. "Hey," I said in a grumble.

"You're really grumpy. Is it that time of the month?" Dean asked.

He did not just ask me that?

Andy groaned, glaring at him. "Dude, seriously. Shut the hell up."

"Typical guy," Kara said, rolling her eyes. "Any time a girl is in a bad mood you guys think it's because of that. Could you be more sexist?"

"I am not," Dean complained. "It was an honest question."

"Maybe I'm like this because I don't like any of you," I told them. The words barely left my mouth before Ryder's lips were on mine. He smirked at me when the kiss was over with an I wasn't kidding look.

Kara aww-ed, smiling at us while Dean made gagging noises."Okay, so that was something I didn't need to see. I might be traumatized." He shuddered for good measure.

"Shut up Dean," Ryder told him, but the smile took any heat out of his words.

"Anyway," Andy said leaning forward with his arms on the table. "I know you like me. Everyone likes me." He nodded, obviously convinced of the truth of his statement.

"It's true, unfortunately," Kara said, rolling her eyes.

"I don't like you," Dean said.

"You don't count." Andy shoved him, making him bump roughly into Beth. She looked irritated at first then laughed lightly giving Dean a little push back towards Andy. Neither of the guys acknowledged her.

"Come on let's get some food before all the good stuff is gone. Need us to get you anything Brookie?"

"Ryder will take care of her," Kara said, standing with the others.
