All that's on my mind

A date?

You broke down again. These murders scared you too much and you had to care for the traumatized teenagers. You grabbed your phone and dialed Ryders number. Katie had given it to you around the same time as the murders started. „Ryder here." „Ryder, can you come over?" you asked. Luckily he couldn't see your face through the phone. You were a bit embarrassed to ask that but Ryders answer surprised you. „Sure. What do you think of getting ice-cream and take a ride on my ATV through town?" „Really?!" you asked, looking forward to spending time with Ryder. „Promise. I'll pay for the ice-cream." You agreed and hung up. What should I wear? You thought, looking for something suitable in your closet. You found an old outfit of yours:

A smile formed around your lips, as you remembered how your father would take you to the collage on the motorcycle. You got dressed and waited for Ryder outside. He stopped next to you and tossed a black helmet over to you. You caught it and thanked him. „Hey, everyone would do that. It is no big deal." Ryder blushed a little as he realized you were wearing a biker outfit but he didn't allow himself to stare at you. You got on the ATV and wrapped your arms around his waist. „How fast can your ATV go?" you asked. „That is up to you." Ryder said. He wanted to make you feel better and not scare you. You listened to the sound of the engine and relaxed against his back. He drove out of town and to a quiet road. „Didn't we want to get ice-cream?" your were slightly confused. „That can wait. I wanted to show you something." „Okay? Uhm...can we go faster please?" you felt safer now and you trusted Ryder.

Ryder POV
„Okay? Uhm...can we go faster please?"  „Tell me if too fast." I responded and turned up the tempo. Her hands grabbed my waist tighter but she didn't seem to be scared. „Is it too fast?" I asked. „No. It's just right!" Y/n cheered. Gosh, her voice is so sweet. I slowed down again. „We're here" I told her and Y/n got down from my ATV. I followed and took of my helmet. „Ryder.... This view is beautiful!"

(Sort of this view)
I smiled. Her laughter is so cute...Y/n, how are you so perfect?! „Not as beautiful as you." I whispered. „How did you find this spot?" she asked and turned to me. „I can't really remember. But I think I found it  while testing my ATV." I walked up to her and she grabbed my hand.

Your POV
I grabbed Ryders hand. I couldn't believe that this view was real. My troubles seemed so far away from me. Tears of joy formed in my eyes as I smiled and I hugged Ryder. He hugged me back and ran his fingers through my h/c hair. I felt more relaxed now and the sounds of nature calmed me down. „Can we get ice-cream now?" I asked, hoping he'd say yes. „Sure we can. I promised it to you, didn't I?" True. He did. I cheered and put on my helmet again. Ryder  put on his helmet and got on the ATV, he let the engine roar as soon as he felt my tight grip around his waist. I never realized that Ryder had a very trained upper body until now; I felt his six pack underneath my touch. We reached the town sooner than I expected but Ryder bought me my favorite ice-cream: f/f (favorite flavor).

Ryder POV
Y/n thanked me for the ice-cream and I smiled. „No big deal. You need it right now." I added to my smile. After we had eaten the ice-cream, it was already afternoon. I drove her to her home and we agreed on doing something like this more often. „Can I keep the helmet?" she asked. „Can you drive a motorcycle?" I asked back. „Actually I can!" „It's all yours." I chuckled and after saying good bye, I drove to the lookout. Were we on a date? No. It was just to cheer her up. N/n would never take me as her boyfriend, right? But I love her...I went to my puppies. „Ryder!" „Hello Zuma." „Where were you?" „With Y/n." Skye gasped: „On a date?!" Okay seriously, I need to talk to Katie about this. „No. She was feeling down, so I cheered her up." I answered truthfully. Though I wish it was a date. „So that is why you faintly smell like her." Chase pointed out and I told them about the hugs. „So you do like her!" „Skye, it was just some hugs." „But you like her." „I am in my room. There is still paperwork that needs to be done." I simply stated and headed upstairs. In my room, I got my note book out of a safe and wrote down what happened today. N/n, if you only knew about the power you have over me...
