Chapter 8: If I were in your shoes

(A couple days later) (6:00 pm Wednesday)
Ezra's p.o.v: "Ezra you should stick to that Ryder boy, he'll be good for you." Eros tells me
"What?! NO! that kid seems like trouble. You took him home during school to do heaven knows what and he has two little boys. He is no good" My dad says and I face palm
"Those two kids are his little brothers. They don't have a dad and their mom isn't a good one. And as I will say again I took him home to get his contacts." I say annoyed and I see the doorbell flicker and I go to get it. I open it to see Ryder with a bouquet of roses and lilies. He chuckles at me and I look at him in confusion
"Nice attire wanker" he chuckles and I look at my bed head, my messed up painted on plain white tee and my pentagram pajama pants
"Yup you dumb brit. What's with the flowers?" I ask
"I wanted to say sorry for being rude and snapping at you and stealing your car, so I bought you flowers. And I wanted to see if you'd go on a date with me today. Will You?" He asks
"Why don't we just hang out here. C'mon in. And you shouldn't be the one apologizing. I'm sorry for saying those rude things to you" I tell him and invite him in.
"It's ok. Do you have a vase?" he asks me
"I don't know but I'll get a cup" I say and he laughs
"You Americans are so odd" he says
"I'm not American. I'm Mexican Irish American" I state and I pull him close to me
"It still has American in it" he says and I'm about to kiss him but my dad slams his fist on the table
"Hello Ryder"
"Ello Mr. DeMarco, what a fine evening it is today" Ryder says awkwardly and he scratches his head
"It was good till I found my son almost kissing a dumb Brit" My dad spits
"Ey you bloody wanker for your information I am very smart. You arsehole. aren't you supposed to be a short angry firey redhead and looking for gold or lucky charms?" Ryder snaps
"and aren't you supposed to have crooked teeth you tea and scone loving bastard" My dad sneers
"My time is done here. I hope you have a good day Ezra. I'll see you tomorrow." Ryder says angrily and he storms out
"Why'd you do that Dad? He is the first person I have liked in a year and you have to drive him away. You are a bastard" I say and go after Ryder. I knock on his door and he answers it and before he can say something I crash my lips to his. I stop kissing him when I hear two little kids faintly saying "EWW" and I laugh
"C'mon in love" he says and I walk in
"Can I stay here tonight, I don't wanna see that Jerk bastard father of mine" I say
"Sure. would you like some coffee or some quiche?" he asks
"Quiche please," I say and he leads me to his small kitchen. we eat and he lets me sleep on his couch and I fall asleep real fast. he's so nice and sweet. I have to do the best in my power not to fuck this up. Because he's a keeper. And he's what I need. a nice guy.
