LOGINRyan POVâWhat the heck, Ethan! Why the hell do you have to break my waist now? You know I was going to race!â I shoved at him, my hands gripping the sheets. He was still half asleep.His eyes fluttered open, a lazy, mischievous grin tugging at his lips. Without warning, he yanked me over his chest from where I was standing, trapping me against him.âI told you that yesterday,â he murmured, his voice thick with sleep and amusement. âIf you want to win today, youâve gotta start the morning right.âI groaned, squirming, but the warmth of his body and that infuriating grin made my resolve melt faster than I wanted.âStart the morning right?â I repeated, trying to sound stern. âYou mean⊠by squishing me like a pancake?ââExactly,â he whispered, his nose brushing against my hair. âYou need motivation, focus, and energy for the final race. Remember, you said that yesterday.âI rolled my eyes, though my cheeks were burning. âYouâre ridiculous.ââMaybe,â he admitted, tightening his arms aroun
Ethan POV âEthan! Ryan!â Coachâs voice snapped me back to reality. âFocus. Weâre not done yet.â We both straightened immediately, like schoolboys caught whispering during class. âYes, Coach,â Ryan called back, his tone maddeningly light. Coach gave him a narrow eyed stare. âYouâre too relaxed, Ren. Tomorrowâs the final race, not a picnic.â Ryan only grinned wider. âDonât worry, Coach. Iâm saving the fireworks for tomorrow.â I groaned under my breath. âStupid. You'll end up killing me one day.â He shot back quietly, âYouâll die happy though.â I turned away quickly, trying not to laugh. ~~~~~ Practice wrapped up at sunset, and as everyone packed up, Ryan came up beside me, with his helmet tucked under his arm. His hair was damp with sweat, his voice softer now. âEthan.â âYeah?â He hesitated for a moment, then smiled. âIf we win tomorrow⊠youâre coming with me.â âComing where?â âAw, did you just forget what you said earlier? To see my mom.â He grinned mischievously. âYou s
Ethan POVâRy!! Leave the bathroom, we need to go for practice!â I yelled, banging on the door for what had to be the fifth time. âToday's the last day before the final match tomorrow, and then we leave! Then you can take me to your mom. No ââ I paused, smirking. âI mean, my future mother in law.âHe didn't answer but I could hear his chuckle and the running water.âRyan!â I groaned, resting my forehead against the door. âThe rest of the guys are already in the field!âHe still didn't answer.I turned the door knob but it was locked.âDonât even think about it!â his muffled voice came through the door. âIâm showering!ââYouâve been in there for the past thirty minutes!â I shot back. âWhat are you doing, washing away your sins?âThere was a pause before he whispered in a casual and hell sexy voice, âMaybe.âI rolled my eyes. âYouâre unbelievable.âThe door creaked open an inch, steam curling out. Ryanâs wet hair clung to his forehead, a towel slung low on his hips, water sliding down h
Ryan POVâDamn, Ry, stop. You always rant about us getting caught and youâre doing this,â Ethan whispered, his smile frozen perfectly for the others as he leaned closer like I had just told him an unfunny joke.âNo.â I mouthed back, my hand still exploring his thigh under the table, fingers brushing higher with every word.His breath hitched, just slightly, but I caught it. âRy, if we leave here, I swear you are not going to like meâŠâThat made me grin wider. âPromise?â I mouthed.He shot me a glare that would have scared anyone else. But me? It just made it more fun.Champ was talking loudly from the other end, waving his fork like a man possessed. âIâm telling you, Kyle, that corner turn was my best and ââââ and your stupidest,â Kyle cut in, laughing. Everyone joined him, and the table shook with noise.Coach was giving them some tips and cracking a joke as usual. The guys were deeply into coach words.Now that's a perfect cover.I slid my hand a little higher under his shorts. Eth
Ryanâs POVI was just ranting to my boyfriend about what coach had said earlier about my next run, he said something about control, he said I ride like I was a robot who didnât get hungover.I was just beginning to get exhausted when Ethan suddenly grabbed my wrist and dragged me into one of the storage rooms.âEthan, what the hell are you doingââ I started, but the door clicked shut behind us before I could finish.He turned to me, his eyes glinting with mischief and then I knew he was about to do something sinful. âYou kept staring at me when I was talking to coach earlier,â he said, his voice low and teasing.I scoffed, stepping back. âYouâre imagining things besides you did stare at me too.ââDid I?â he asked, and before I could throw another smart line, he pressed me against a stack of tires and kissed me so hard my brain short circuited.God, he always tasted like mint and berries.I kissed him back, my fingers weaving his hair, until the world narrowed to the sound of our breat
Ethan POVIt has been a week since coach announced weâd be dismantled. Call me selfish, but I was actually happy about it.Not because I wanted it to end â no, hell no â but because for once, I could finally have Ryan all to myself and he'll get to figure out what he can do better. Bit just live his life full of rides.But the fool had been sulking for days. Acting like someone snatched his soul and left only his body walking around. He would come to the field, barely talk, ride two laps, and just sit down staring at the ground like it would tell him the future.I had tried everything like giving him his favourite snacks, I tried teasing him, even a little bit of trouble but guess what?Yeah, nothing worked.Today though, practice was good. The guys were starting to laugh again. Coach even looked relieved for the first time in weeks. I guess everyone had accepted it. Everyone except Ryan of course.Why was he so stubborn?He was at the far end of the track, sitting down with some guys
