The Alpha Chose Me by Missy Elliottxo

"I'm easy shorty, don't think this weather is going to get any better".

The sky was grey, the rain drizzly. I think a thunderstorm was coming.

"Well it ain't walking on the beach weather". I laughed. "Let's go out of town for coffee though, I would hate to run into people that don't like me". Making a face he laughed. "Those girls ain't got nothing on you". He winked as we took off down the highway. I could feel my phone vibrating against my boot from inside my bag but chose to ignore it. "So have you heard from Abby?". I asked.

"Not even a text". He sighed. "I've been pretty busy with football practice so it's cool".

"Have you messaged her?".

"Been busy". Giving me a sheepish look I rolled my eyes. Typical, wanting the girl to make the first move.

"Ryan". I sighed. "Message her, ask her on a date, what's the worst that could happen?".

"Eh she could say no". Pulling into the car park of the mall he turned off the engine. "She could reject this gorgeous face". He smirked.

"You're at it". Unclipping my seatbelt I stared out the window looking up at the sky. The weather definitely wasn't on our side today. "Let's go and I will make sure you text Abby by the time we head home".

"This is cute". He grinned. "A little mate date".

"It's cozy". I laughed looking over the menu. "I like that I can still see outside". It wasn't a restaurant but it was a cute little cafe that sat along side the mall.

"How are things with you and Jake?". He asked.

"What do you mean?". I didn't take my eyes of the menu. Jake and I didn't have things. We weren't together.

"Oh come on Leah". He laughed. "You're new to town and he's Jake Taylor. People talk".

"Not you too". I groaned. "Please don't tell me you believe everything you hear?".
