Ryker's POVI grabbed a small white helmet and handed it to her, but she just stared at it in my hands."Who owns this?" She asked as she pointed her index finger at the helmet."It used to be my sister's." I told her with a sigh. "Come on, Grumps. Take it and put it on. Stop looking at it like it's going to bite you.""I'm not going to put it on because I'm not going anywhere with you. I thought you wanted to talk.""Yes! We are going to talk but not here and not when you're like this." I said to her, already getting tired of the way she was acting."What do you mean when I'm like this? You mean you can't talk to me because I'm dressed like this or what?" She asked as she placed both hands on her hips."No, Grumps. I mean you're drunk, and I can't talk to you that way because you probably won't remember in the morning, so I'm gonna take you somewhere and get you sober." "But I want an explanation from you." She whined and stumped her feet on the ground like a little child."We are
Ryker's POVI swallowed hard. I watched how cute her coyness was as she blushed really hard. She rubbed the back of her neck awkwardly before getting into the pool.She shuddered and said, "it's colder than I expected." She slowly made her way towards me as I continued to stare at her. The water reached just below her boobs. She smiled shyly and looked up at me."So, umm...where are we gonna start from, big guy?" She asked, quietly."We are going to start from the basics. First, I want you to get comfortable with the water, okay? Just relax." I said. I tried so hard not to stare down at her boobs as I extended my hands towards her, offering support."But how am I supposed to relax in this? The water is so cold and it's probably going to swallow me."I chuckled and said, "don't worry, you'll get used to it in no time, Grumps. We'll take it slow." I moved my hands to her waist and I felt her tense under my touch. A soft gasp escaped her mouth drawing my attention to it, I stared at he
God damn me to hell and back.I just woke up and every stupid thing I had done last night rushed to my memory as I sat up on my bed."Oh my God! Oh my God! What have I done?" I can't believe I was reciting Disney animation lines to Ryker, I even sang on the street. On the fucking street!!!God! How many times do I have to embarrass myself in front of him?I glanced at the side of the room and saw that Sam was still sleeping and what's worse, she still had that tight tube top on.Then I recalled the kiss she had with that guy yesterday. Sam was really wild and crazy, for her to allow the guy to put his hand inside her top, in front of everyone. That was so freaking crazy!Well, she wanted to get railed so badly so I guess she enjoyed it. I wondered if anything happened between them after Ryker and I left yesterday.I got down from the bed and walked towards the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth.One thing I like about myself is that I never get a hangover. No matter the quant
It was noon on Saturday and I was almost done with my shift at Macy's. The shop was doing so well, it was always filled with customers. Seth had changed and added a few things in the menu, he also increased our pay which means more money for me. I was so excited when he gave us the payment for this week not long ago. Jasmine and I had been studying at the library and when she came over to my hostel yesterday, we got to know each other better. She was a nice person, just like Sam. I hadn't seen Ryker since the night of the party, because I had obviously been avoiding him. Sometimes I'd pass the back door of the café whenever he and his friends came around.Yesterday, I waited in the kitchen until they left before going home. If Lucy noticed the way I had been acting, she didn't say anything about it and I liked it that way. I don't think I couldn't explain what happened to someone else.My phone beeped from a message and I saw that it was my best friend.Dylan: Hey, Shea.Me; D!Dyl
23Ryker placed his hands on my shoulders, setting my skin on fire, different feelings settled in my stomach and I tried so hard not to blush in front of his friends.I looked up and saw that Cassie was glaring at me, Ryker noticed too but he didn't care about it. He greeted the guys and turned to look at the girls. "Ryker, it's been a while." Laurel said with a smile on her face. I liked her lilac acrylic nails, they were pretty. I loved acrylic nails but whenever I used them, no matter how long I tried to keep them, I always discard them the second day. Back in high school, I was so excited when I used them for prom, but then, to wear my clothes was a struggle, I couldn't wear my earrings, brush my teeth, cream my body or even comb my hair. My mom had to help me with everything back then. As soon as prom was over, I yanked them off and I've haven't thought of using them since then."Yeah, it has. I didn't expect to see you guys here." Ryker said, casting a side glance at Brandon wh
My breath hitched in my throat and my cheeks reddened as I stared at Ryker, who just stared at me back with a smile on his face.What the hell?How could he smile like that after kissing me, well technically, I was the one who kissed him, it was me who closed my stupid eyes and moved closer to him. Why did I close my eyes?And how could he smile like that when I was mentally breaking down and freaking out. Everyone was silent. They just stared at us like they had never seen two people kiss before.Chad cleared his throat and said, "well, what's done is done. Ryker! Truth or Dare?" "Dare, obviously." Ryker said with a smirk on his face.Why didn't he say anything when the card slipped from his mouth?Did he let me kiss him intentionally?Did he like me?How could he act so cool and be so coordinated like nothing had happened? Maybe I was the one overreacting. It was just a small kiss, a mistake. That's all it was."You never disappoint. I dare you to switch your t-shirt with Shea." C
I breathe in deeply as my eyes slowly peeled open. Sunlight filtered into the room through the gap in the curtain. I blinked for a moment before realizing that I wasn't alone. My heart picked up speed as my eyes fell on Ryker's face. I thought he had left after I had fallen asleep.He looked more peaceful than I'd ever seen him. His chest moved rhythmically up and down as he breathed. His hot air fanned my face, sending chills down my spine. His left hand was wrapped around my waist while his right arm was still under my head. His arm must have gotten numb from the weight of my head on it for so long, the thought of it made my heart ache.I tried to get up by slightly pushing his hand away from my waist, to avoid waking him, but his hand only wrapped around me more tightly and he pulled me closer to him, placing my head directly under the crook of his neck."Stop it, Bruno." He murmured in his sleep. I swallowed as I watched as his Adam's apple bobbed.Who was Bruno?"Ryker?" I called
Dylan and I walked into the hospital mom was brought into, the nauseating smell of disinfectant that I had always hated filled the lobby. Dylan told me to wait while he went to speak with the receptionist, after filling out a form, he came back to meet me."She's in room 107." He told me."Let's go." I said with a shaky breath.We went up the flight of stairs and then we got to another hallway, we began to search for the room with that number."Ugh! Why is the room so hard to find?" I groaned as I stared at room 115."I think it's that one." Dylan said as he pointed at a room at the far end of the hall.Just as we neared the room, I saw my dad coming out of there. He looked tired and he had dark circles around his eyes. He looked up and as soon as he saw me, his face lit up with a wide smile. I ran towards him and threw my shaky hands around him."Dad... How is she?" I asked as tears started to well up in my eyes again."She'll be fine, she'll be fine, Shea." Dad assured me, as he kis
