saying you liked ryan was the understatement of the year.
you had a crush on this man as soon as you got to Colorado.
when you first met him, it felt like a breath of fresh air.
this man one hundred percent gives off golden retriever vibes.
it doesn't help squash your feelings on how good of a person he is!
him helping out steph with the record store when she's stressing,
helping old ladies cross the road.
he's a park ranger for god sakes.
you can't lie and say that he wasn't the cause of you running purposefully near the park every other day because he was. you never even thought to pick up a pair of running shoes until you found that out.
yeah, you might not ever be able to have him, but you could at least admire him. he's just so pretty to look at.
you decided to leave a little flower at the bench he'd rest at half way through his shift. it was worth the smile it put on his face, jogging away when he had received it.
more recently you wrote little affirmations on a piece of paper tucked away with the flower.
now? you were sat on the record store counter keeping stephanie company as she did inventory, talking her ear off as she flicked through some of the vinyl's. her eyebrows furrow concentrating on what she was doing but not hard enough that she could still hear you loud and clear.
your legs swinging back and forth sighing happily at the groovy music that ran throughout the place. that's when the bell rang, it was ryan. he looked heated, but polite enough to say hi to her as he walked in.
walking straight for you, gulping as he got closer. legs stopped kicking when he got so close that you were faced to face. both of his hands were pressed either side of you cornering you, to do nothing but just look at him.
"i got your flowers and your little notes."
oh fuck. you had been found out. maybe you could play it off?
"uh- what flowers?" you could feel your face flush. so much for playing coy.
"nu-uh you know exactly what i'm talking about." his face was so close to yours, wondering if itd even help leaning back right now, just closing your eyes hoping the floor would swallow you whole right now.
"fine it was me, you happy?" closing your eyes scared of his reaction.
that's when everything went quiet, the song changed in the shop and the melody of 'i was made for lovin' you' by kiss played.
steph trying to wingman for you in the radio room.
eyes still closed a giggle left your mouth, but stopped when you felt his lips on yours, tensing up but almost immediately melting into the kiss. wrapping your arms around his neck to pull him closer to deepen it.
hearing a door shut and the girl in the corner cheer, making the two of you pull away laughing.
