Romans POV

I hear my phone ringing and groan lightly, rubbing my eyes and aimlessly reaching around for it.
Finally grasping it, I sit up and squint at the bright screen, I'd barely slept last night. My mind was clouded with her.

I get up from my bed and quickly get changed, running my fingers through my hair and glancing in the mirror for a moment before grabbing my phone and keys

I get up from my bed and quickly get changed, running my fingers through my hair and glancing in the mirror for a moment before grabbing my phone and keys. Admittedly a bit too excited to go and see her.

Once I get to the barn I walk inside to try and find her, hearing her voice echo through the isle I smile to myself and walk over toward the ring, leaning against the railing and watching her as she teaches a lesson. She was great with kids, and an amazing teacher. I'd seen some of the kids progress and it was crazy.

After a few minutes she starts to walk to the gate with the kid, as she sees me she furrows her eyebrows and I smile lightly; watching as she smiles back and looks away. God she was adorable.
I can't help but watch her as she talked with the lesson kid, attempting not to check her out as she bends down in those tight pants. After a minute she finally turns around and walks over toward me and I have to pull my eyes away, crossing my arms over my chest as I lean against the wall, watching her.

" can I help you with something wade?" She asks and I shrug, standing up all the way and looking down to her " i need your keys little nyx. Unless you wanna walk to work." I chuckles and watch as she rolls her eyes, I shouldn't like when she does that. But I do.
I watch as she reaches into her pocket and takes out her car keys, handing them to me " thanks." She mutters before turning around and walking back over to the kid.
I shake my head lightly and watch her for a moment before smiling to myself and turning around, walking out to the parking lot.

I walk into the barn and over toward the ring, leaning against the railing and smiling to myself as I watch Valentina ride, god she was amazing at this. I didn't understand how she did it. Whenever she had a show I usually tagged along with her family and I couldn't lie, I loved it. It definitely stressed me out sometimes, I knew how dangerous it was and she was certainly a risk taker. But I knew that she knew what she was doing.
As she notices me she walks her horse over and rubs her neck as she speaks " what now?" She asks and I watch her for a moment before speaking " batteries dead. I can charge it but it'll be at least an hour before you can drive it. I'll drop you home and then bring it by later" she sighs as I speak, cursing under her breath before speaking " I'm not going to be done for at least 20 more minutes, I'll just find another ride" she says and starts to walk her again, I raise my eyebrows lightly " no you won't. I'll wait. I'm already here. Besides, atlas finds out I left you here, he'll kill me." I smirk and watch as she rolls her eyes, but I notice the slight smile on her face. While that was mostly true, I also didn't want to leave her here without a ride.. and I enjoyed watching more than I'd like to admit. It's like I felt this constant need to be around her. I tried to fight it most of the time, but it was hard.
