My Playboy Cowboy

1 [Four Years Ago]

I remember it was a hot day for the fourth of July and my brother Killer and his friends were invited to a party at the Newgate house and I was so nervous because I have never been to a big party like this with other's because of certain things in my life.

But my half-brother Killer and his friends Kid, Wire and Heat wanted me to tag along so I could get out of the house before the school year started again. So here I was sitting in a corner by myself drinking water as I watched others talked, laughed and danced to the loud music that was being played.

I didn't mind being alone and I wasn't going to ruin Killer's night or the other's I didn't want to be a burden to them so I stayed where I was not doing anything; lost in my own thoughts I didn't see someone walking up to me until I saw someone in front of me which made me jump a bit which made the person chuckle.

"Hey there" he spoke loudly over the music.

my blue eyes looked up to meet these amazing eyes that just made me feel safe already, his big grinning smile on his face that made his freckles pop out a bit, wearing an orange cowboy hat over his black hair that was a little long. 

I waved shyly with  small smile on my face and I'm sure I felt my cheeks heat up as well when I looked at him.

"Want to come dance?" he asked me which made me nervous a bit.

I took a breath in before a big smile on my face came when I agreed to dance with him, I swear his smile grew bigger when I agreed with him; in an instant he took my hand in his and brought me up from my chair and brought me out to the group dancing to the music. My heart just started pounding with excitement and my mind was racing with the thoughts about why he would want to dance with me and not with any other prettier girl here in the mansion. I'm really sure we danced for maybe two hours when we hit the dance floor bringing some spice into the group, one thing is for sure I took dancing lessons when I was little and I'm glad I did because it was so much fun to surprise him with some dance moves of mine. We spun around and jumped to the music we were going all out with the dancing and I was loving it.

Finally we took a break from dancing to get some drinks since we danced for a long time but I was to busy smiling and laughing with him that I could care less about what time it was.

"I almost forgot, my name is Ace" Ace said to me when he took a swig of beer.

"A-aye 'm Lilly" I said trying to sound normal but I knew that 'I' was 'Aye' to me.

"Nice to meet you Lilly" Ace smiled warmly which made me blush a bit more. "You having fun?" he asked me again.

"Yeah" was all I said which I always said yeah to everything because that was a yes for me but it sounded normal enough.

Ace smiled and chuckled again seeing how shy I was with talking mostly but it didn't look like he minded on how I talked which was nice. 

"Lilly" the sound of Killer came to my ears which made me look at him.

"Yhat?" I asked when I looked at him.

"We need to head home" Killer said to me which made me sad since the fireworks didn't go off yet but I understood since we had things to do early in the morning.

"K" I said as I nodded my head.

Killer walked away to find the other boys since they were more party animal than Killer was, I looked back at Ace with a small sad face.

"Wish you could've stayed for the fireworks" Ace said to me with a small sad smile.

"Me too...." I said to him with a sad smile of my own.

"I hope we can meet again sometime" Ace said again trying to cheer me up which it did.

"Chure" I said to with with a smile on my face which made him smile.

After saying goodbye to Ace we were walking out to Kid's truck and hopped inside to head back to their apartment to sleep before waking up early in the morning.

[Four Years Later]

Well now I am seventeen years and getting into high school now and honestly first class was horrible, I had to speak in front of the class about who I was and everything that was coming out of my mouth was making everyone laugh at me. So yep I was feeling horrible right now as I walked down the halls to get to my locker.

I didn't cry because crying was never going to fix anything that happened today and I just had to deal with it; opening my locker I placed all my stuff in my bag before taking it and closing it again, that's when I froze in my tracks. Seeing someone I never thought I would ever see again in my life.

"Ace?" I whispered to myself mostly as I saw him down the hallway talking and laughing with some other boys around him as he had his arm around a girl who was giggling at what they said.

My heart raced and yet ached seeing him with another girl but I guess I shouldn't be surprise it has been four years and I doubt he remembered me; I saw his face turn towards me which made me turn around away from him before I started walking away to my next class not wanting to know if he remembered me or not. But little known to me Ace saw my face and also unknown to me is that he clearly remembered who I was but I was to afraid to find out if he did or not.
