I'm Yours

Blush

Ryker's POV:

Aug's intoxicating scent fills my nose. It's sweet and addicting. I always want to be near him, so I'm going to ask him if he would come with me today when I talk to my sister.

I definitely don't want to be alone when I talk to her, so obviously my sweet Aug is my first choice of who I want with me while I talk to her.

"Aug?" I say quietly, trying to wake him up from my lap.

I swear this guy is always sleeping.

He doesn't respond, and I begin to play with the curls on his head. He looked so cute when he's sleeping.

"Baby, wake up," I say, continuing to play with his hair.

"Hmm," he hums, turning his face upwards, and looking at me with puffy eyes.

He was crying? What's wrong? I thought he was just sleeping.

"Aug what's wrong?" I ask, wiping the tears away from his cheek. "Why are you crying?"

"Sorry," he whimpers. "I just... um I had a bad dream. That's all."

"You want to tell me what it was about?" I ask, looking at him with worried eyes.

I don't like seeing my sweet Aug cry. I don't know what the dream was about, but I know it was not a pleasant one, especially since Aug has not let go of my arm after he woke up.

"I um... I don't," his voice begins to crack, and then he just begins to sob into my arms.

He was crying and I hated how hurt he sounded. What was going on?

I need to make sure that he will be okay for the rest of the day, so I make a mental note to tell Annie I can't meet up with her today. In fact, I don't really want to meet up with her at all anymore.

"Come here baby," I say gently, as I pull him into a hug.

"It's been a-awhile since I've had a dream like that," he whispers. "I need to tell papa," he says to himself.

"Go tell him now hmm?" I say. "I'll wait here for you, and then you'll tell me what I can do to make you feel better okay?"

"Okay," he nods.

Aug leaves the room, and I quickly send Annie a 'can't meet today' text before waiting for Aug. she replies almost instantly.

Annie:
Why not?

Me:
Something came up

Annie:
Is it that important?

Me:
Yes.

Annie:
When will we be able to talk then? I want to put our troubles behind us.

Me:
Idk when.

I then shut off my phone. She's acting like it was something small, and it wasn't. She told me to fuckin kill myself when I was at one of my lowest points in life. I still don't understand how your sister, someone you love, would say some shit like that.

I always see him go to his locker with his face in his books, and his backpack full of things. All he ever says to me is 'excuse me' in his soft voice before opening his locker, putting his things in, and leaving.

I've been crushing on this dude since the beginning of the school year, but he never notices me. Yesterday I tried to talk to him by literally staring at him while he opened his locker, hoping he'd ask what I was staring at, but he didn't. He just went on his merry way.
