I stared at the man in front of me with big eyes, not being able to realise how good he is treating me even though he doesn't know me.

"Thank you." I then mumbled slightly embarrassed, watching him slip off the heel off one of my feet.

"Nothing to thank me for." He gave me a small smile before looking down again, opening the other strap of my heel.

"What's your name?" He then asked, and I swallowed hard. This man was doing things to me l never thought were possible, especially when you don't even know each other.

"Victoria." I said, looking down at him. He just slipped the other shoe off my foot, placing both of the shoes next to the bed. Then he looked up at me.

"A beautiful name for a beautiful woman." He said and I turned my head away, feeling a soft blush appearing on my face.

"What about you?" I just asked, being genuinely curious but also wanting to distract him from the fact that he made me blush so easily.

"Ryder." He said and I looked back at him. I couldn't explain why, but I was incredibly turned on in that moment, and I wanted him. It's not because of his good looks, but because of his behaviour and especially the way he treats me.

I was in a relationship with Daniel for two years and he never treated me this good.

Now Ryder stood up and looked down into my eyes, making me look up into his.

"I will get you some clothes you can sleep in, okay?"

I nodded, looking after him. After a few minutes he came back with clothes in his hands.

"They will be too big on you, but it's better than
nothing." He said as he gave me the clothes, sitting down next to me on the bed.

"Thank you so much." I smiled at him and he smiled
back at me, the smile on his face mesmerising me so much that, without even realising it, my hand raised and placed on his cheek.

My thumb ran over his scar before running over his lower lip, just staying there. And he just stared back at me, he did not flinch away from my touch, nothing.

"You're so beautiful." I then whispered, my eyes going back from his lips so his eyes, staring back into his eyes.

"Nothing can even come close to as beautiful as you
are." He smiled before pressing a soft kiss onto my
thumb.

"Now go to sleep, we will talk tomorrow." He then said, wanting to stand up but I grabbed his hand, making him look back at me immediately.

"No please don't leave me. I don't wanna be alone tonight." I said while looking at him with pleading eyes.

Like I said before, I felt incredibly safe with him, so I really wanted to stay with him. And I could just say that I was drunk and that's why I said that in the end, I had nothing to loose.

He stayed still for a moment, obviously thinking this over. Then he looked back into my eyes before a deep sigh left his mouth.

"Okay, I will stay with you for the night." I smiled widely at his answer.

"How about you use the bathroom and get ready for bed and in the meantime I do the same in my room and then come back to you?" He asked and I nodded, standing up with his clothes in my hand.

"Everything you may need is in the bathroom, and if you need anything just ask me after." I nodded again, smiling at him before walking over to the bathroom, locking the door behind me.

I stripped before looking at myself in the mirror, my eyes widening when I saw how I looked.

And he called me beautiful-?

My makeup was looking terrible because of how much I cried, it was all over my cheeks. I inhaled deeply before taking the hair tie I always had on my wrist, putting my hair into a messy bun.

I then looked around, seeing that there was a soap for the face. I shrugged, just using that to remove my make up since I didn't had my products with me.

When I finally had my whole makeup removed, I dried my face before using the still packed toothbrush, quickly brushing my teeth. After that, I took off my bra, before pulling his shirt over my head. And indeed, it was really big on me. It went till the middle of my thigh.

I then grabbed the sweatpants he gave me, putting them on, but the sweats were really long, and I didn't like the way it looked.

I will sleep in just his shirt, it covers everything up.

I took the pants off again before grabbing everything, walking back into the room again. He was already sitting on the bed, his eyes focused on his phone before he looked up when he heard the door open.

His eyes wandered down my body once before looking up into my face again.

"Ah I decided to sleep in just the shirt because the sweats are way too long for me." I said while placing my dress, bra and the sweats on the nightstand.

"That's okay, as long as you're comfortable." I crawled onto the bed before laying down, pulling the blanket over myself as I stared into his eyes.

He was now wearing some sweats and a shirt himself, and for a moment I glanced at his arms. They were pretty muscular and the veins- I quickly looked back into his eyes before patting the spot next to me.

"Lay down with me, please."
