11-Box of excuses
The week rolled by and before I knew it, tomorrow was Monday again. I had not seen Ryker around or at the café since the day he left my hostel. I hope he's fine though.I got my first payment from the café yesterday. I was so excited that I kept checking my purse to see if the money was still there.I had promised to take myself out on a solo date when I get my first salary. I deserved it, after a long and stressful week.Same had returned yesterday, but she didn't leave me alone until I told her everything that happened when she wasn't around.I put on a black jeans and a gray top, packed my hair in a low bun and applied a bit of make-up.And by make-up , I meant my strawberry flavor lip gloss. I wasn't really a fan of make-up. At prom, back in highschool, I only did natural make-up, and Dylan said it barely changed my face.I checked my reflection in the mirror, twisting and turning as Sam gave me a pat on my flat ass."You look perfect, girl. Are you going to see someone?" Sam ask

12-No touching
I returned back to my hostel after I agreed to be Ryker's date for the fundraising event. Sam wasn't around when I got back, so I took off my clothes and threw on some baggy and comfortable sweats. I jumped on my bed, plugged in my earphones and worked on some assignments.As soon as Pink venom by Black Pink started to play, I closed my books and stood up from my bed. I balled my palm into a fist and used it as an imaginary mic, I sang the rubbish I knew and danced to the beat."One time into focus, come down move and you know this, everybody come on shut that portion, mean it on that pink pink ocean" I was the best in singing rubbish and I know that. Whenever I hear a song and I don't know the lyrics, I'll stick to the words I heard from the song.I swung my hand and hips as I danced to the song like I was on a stage."Just stop, drop. I bring the pain like ratatata, ratata-" My phone beeped, making the song stop playing. I checked my phone and it was a text from Ryker.Ryker: Hey,

13-Walking like a penguin
All sorts of products were applied to my face, but the beauticians didn't allow me to check the mirror. They said it's bad to look at the mirror while your make up is being done by someone because it'll make your beauty fade.I doubt that is true, but I complied anyway.Soon, they moved to my hair, they sprayed some things into my hair then curled it.When they were done, they told me to look at the mirror. And when I did, I was stunned because I was staring at a totally different person.I just shape shifted into a totally different person, a beautiful person.I smiled and turned my head sideways to inspect my hair. It was perfectly done.I looked stunning, I didn't know that I could ever look like that."Do you love it?" A female beautician, whom I suspected to be the boss, asked me."Of course, I do. It's amazing, it's perfect. You're really good at your job, your hands are really gifted." I complimented her."I know right? But we only did a small job because you're already beautif

14-Angry vampire
Before I knew it, I was shivering in my seat and my teeth started to chatter. God! I really need a jacket right now. I looked at Ryker, who typed away on his phone oblivious of what was happening to me. I wrapped my hands around myself and decided to call his attention to my situation."Big guy, I really need-""Why are you calling me Big guy, you are not my sister." He said quietly, in order not to attract attention."I've decided that that's what I'll call you since you insisted on calling me Grumps. So, I guess that makes us even." I said through my chattering teeth."Whatever, I don't really care about that." Ryker said, but there was a faint smile on his lips, if I wasn't sitting so close to him, I wouldn't have noticed it.He took off his jacket and gave it to me, "You should wear that, you're shaking so much. I don't want you to get sick again because of me." "Oh! Thank you so much." I said as I wore the jacket which literally swallowed my body. I was instantly surrounded wit

15-I'm not okay
"No, are you okay?" I asked as I stared at him."Shea, you're bleeding!" He said as he looked at my arm.He called me Shea, he's definitely not okay.I looked down at my arm too and my eyes widened slightly, four moon crescents were dripping with blood."Come, let's get it treated." Ryker said as he placed his hand on my back and led me to his car. He picked me up easily and placed me on the hood of the car. Then he walked around the car to the passengers side and came back with a small first aid box.He put some antiseptic on the wool and looked at me softly, his eyes were still red and the green in his eyes was a shade darker. I've never seen him like this before. I wonder what his dad meant by 'dealing with his grief'."This will sting a little." He said as he gently dabbed the soaked wool on my wound. I hissed at the pain and unconsciously placed my hand on Ryker's shoulder. He blew air on the wound as he cleaned it and then applied ointment on it before covering it up with a plas

16-Blondie
I walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my chest and my hair was dripping with water. I threw my dress and my bra on the couch.Ryker was sitting on the bed, still half naked with his phone in his hands. When he noticed me, he dropped his phone on the bed and smiled, a sly smile."Oh! You're done. How's your ass by the way? That was a really hard fall. You know, I could help you massage it If you want, it's actually one of my specialties." He said as he stood up. "Shut up." I told him as I walked to the other side of the bed, with hands on my butt.Ryker grabbed his white shirt and tossed it at me. Thank God for quick reflexes, I snatched it before it hit the ground."You can wear that." He said as he headed into the bathroom.I dried my body and my hair, then put on his shirt. I was instantly assaulted by his cologne, his wonderfully hypnotizing cologne. The shirt stopped just above my knees, I buttoned up and gently sat on the bed, grabbed Ryker's phone and starte

17-Drunk
"Shea! No offense, but what the heck are you doing?" Mason, the group leader asked.We were currently having a practical. Mr Woods, one of our lecturers had divided us into groups of 10 people each and we were asked to cook different dishes. My group members and I were to make Beef Stroganoff. I widened my eyes in shock when I realized what I had done. I had covered the whole beef with the sour cream."Oh my God! I'm so so sorry guys" I apologized as I tried to scoop off some cream but only ended up making a great mess of it.A girl named Lucia, who was also in my group, stopped me and pushed me aside."That's enough, Shea. You're just going to make a mess of everything and ruin all our hard work. I'm not going to let you screw up our group mark just because you can't concentrate." Lucia said as she and the other group members started to clean the mess I've made.I sighed.I had been thinking about the words Blondie said to me yesterday. I know I shouldn't be bothered about it since

18-Secret
Ryker's POV"You're coming with me." I told her as I bent a little, placed my hands on her midriff and at the back of her thighs before picking her up easily."Hey, put me down!" She started to protest as she kicked her legs in the legs, but I didn't let go of her.I was about to turn and walk out of the frat house when Brandon appeared in front of me. He watched Shea closely before looking at me with a knowing smirk. I gently placed Shea on her feet and she hit me with her little fist which I barely felt any effect. She swayed backwards but I was quick to catch her."Man, she's so drunk." Brandon muttered. "Oh! By the way, there's a game of spin the bottle in the first room up the stairs. Wanna join?" Brandon asked me.Shea gasped and slurred, "A game of spin the bottle? I've always wanted to play one. Where are they going to play it?" I rolled my eyes at her and said, dryly, "He just said the room up the stairs, Grumps." Before I knew what was happening, Shea was out of my sight an

19-Sober
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

20-Trust
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
