Ryan stood up. He was tired of hearing Eryx talk. His sarcasm pissed Ryan off. "Hey. Leave her alone. She might not be the brightest, but don't fucking terrorize her." Ryan said, an annoyed look on his face. He slowly walked towards Eryx, trying to talk something out rather than jump into fighting. He then looked at Alyssa, almost cringing at the amount of pain she was in. "Stop messing with him. You aren't going to win anytime soon." Ryan said, walking to her now. He was hesitant to try and comfort her, but decided not to. He didn't want to look "soft" in front of everyone. He then glared back at Eryx, a look of both disappointment and anger in his eyes. Ryan didn't like Eryx. Not one bit. And the fact that he had to be teammates with him got under his skin. He'd love to do anything to hurt the boy, or at least knock every smile off his smug face.
