Chapter 29

 Iwas breathing heavily. It was a surprise. After all this time, it felteccentric. It brought back all the memories of us being together and I couldn'tstop blushing. I turned around covering my face, unable to face him. He camecloser and hugged me from the back. Despite the clothes on our body, I couldfeel the heat in our bodies. I left his grip and he flipped me back, closer tohim. The way he moved his gaze up and down my body, I could feel every movement. His eyes screamed lust. 

Seeing that look and pressed body, my hormones accelerated their pace and I was under a spell, Ryan's spell!

I let loose and allowed him to take control. He cupped my face and started kissing slowly. He slid in through my lips and our tongues entwined. Then he started retreating and kissing the end of my lips. He moved down and buried his face in my neck and started sucking. 

His passion turned a bit aggressive. And he sucked in harder. I let loose a moan. The voice excited him further, and I felt his lips and then his teeth. He nibbled on my skin. Then licking it, he blew over the sore spot, marking me as his own. It felt like a stinging sensation but I couldn't deny how good it felt. He was still excited as his hands left my sides and started moving inside my t-shirt. The moment he tried to slide his hands, I murmured, "Please, stop! " As if alarmed, he withdrew back.

Me: Uhm..I ..can't

Ryan: Shh...its okay. You don't need to. Am sorry for pushing you. It's just...I couldn't control myself..

Me: Even I let go myself.

*Awkward silence* *not making an eye contact*

I decided to break the silence. "I guess now I can cancel library out of my bucket list to explore!", I tried to kill the awkwardness with my lame joke and trying to laugh it out. 

He slid his hand in his pocket and with the other scratched the back of his head saying, " Maybe I can help you cancel out more items to explore", he continued to walk ahead teasing me.

He asked me to wait by the study and ran towards the kitchen. I walked back to the books that had fallen. I couldn't help but slightly giggle as a minute before we had shared an intimate moment here. I piled up the books to the side. A book below the shelf grabbed my attention. It was covered with dust and on cleaning it a little, I was greeted by sneezes. It was his diary. Ryan Higa <3 . That was sweet. 

It was a way to get to know him. I quickly ran to the room and placed it in my bag. And I ran back to the study like the last 50 m of a race. I was breathing heavy. Just then, I saw Ryan come in with cups in both his hand. And I quickly composed myself.

Ryan: Why are you out of breath?

Me: Who says? Am all fine.

Ryan: You don't seem fine.

Me: Ok fine. I was trying to scare away a bug.

Ryan: Seems the opposite to me.

(And he burst out laughing)

Me: Why is the steam coming out from the cup?

Ryan: Cause I am Hot!

Me: hahaha... What's in there?

Ryan: I thought we could have some hot chocolate before going to sleep.

Me: You made it? All by yourself?

Ryan: Yeah. Since, Anna was asleep. I didn't want to disturb her.

(Handing the cup over tome) It was a moment of silence. Sweet silence. We didn't have a conversation but with every sip of hotchocolate, I was gulping down streams of emotions. And the energy thatenveloped us, was to strong at this moment. We kept the cupsby the table and sat down on the ground beside each other. Ryan startednarrating some funny incidents from his childhood and we were giggling andlaughing till our stomach hurt. Slowly, he bent down and rested his head on mylap. It felt so different as if some bond had been developed between us. Hetalked about his likes and dislikes to me and I was engrossed in them as it wasthe first time I saw him speak his heart out. Meanwhile my one hand rested on his chest and the other was busy playing with his hair. It was just cute. 

                                                                        ***

I rubbed my eyes open as sunlight messed with them. Oh God! When did I reach here? It was Ryan's bedroom. Last thing I remember we were in his study, talking. Freak, I slept while he was talking. He brought me here? No... It's so rude on my part to be so inattentive. 

I never sleep like that. What then, did he spike my beverage with sleeping pills? Nah...Am actually crazy enough to think that. It's already 10 am, I am one big sleepyhead. Let me just wash up and move my lazy ass down to table. I freshened up and went out to search for Ryan. He was missing from the table and neither did Anna know where he was. I passed by the hall and I couldn't believe my eyes. 

Taylor? In his house... Both were busy talking to each other. It felt like someone stabbed me right in the front. After all that happened, I thought maybe we still had a chance. But he crushed even the slightest of hope. I controlled my tears as I decided I wouldn't waste them on some unworthy jerk. 

I went up and was astonished to see a white lace dress awaiting me with a note written, "You fill my soul with peace, Dear Riley". I scribbled below it, changed into my clothes, took my bag and after informing Anna left from the back door. 

My sweetheart was repaired. I rode my way home.

Taylor's POV

I thought to give my lovely bf a surprise. So, I visited his house early with some cookies. When we were engrossed in talking, I saw someone pass by. OMG! That couldn't be Riley... What the hell was she doing here? In Ryan's clothes. 

She will have to pay for it now. 

POV end.

A/N:  They had quite an intense moment...I wish Riley hadn't stopped him. There are signs of them bonding close. Maybe it will go well...

Early morning surprise? Taylor? seriously Ryan...it was a dagger to the heart.

But wait...what about the note on the dress? Did he mean it or is he two timing or something?
