Too Good To Be True: A Tyler Hoechlin Love Story

Chapter 11: Cold Blooded

Tyler broke another ice pack on his knee. I was laying on the couch across the room from here. He walked towards me and handed me the ice pack.

"Thanks." I rubbed my head.

"So about what happened earlier." Tyler spoke. Here we go..

"Tyler you really don't have to worry about Chris. He-"

"Woah slow down." Tyler put his hands in front of him. He went on. "I was just going to say I am sorry for acting rude in front of your friend."

I was stunned at what he said. "Tyler you were not rude. You were just worried about me. You did nothing wrong."

"Tell you what, to make it up to you, I am going to take you somewhere that you want."

"Ice skating!" I shouted. "I haven't done it in forever, and I was quite the little figure skater back in the day."

"I don't want you to get hurt though." Tyler says concerned.

"Hey. I am fine. I didn't even get hurt that bad. It barely hurts." I walked up to him, and steadied his eyes into mine.

"I just can't help but feel it was my fault." Tyler looked down ashamed.

"For God's sake, how could this be your fault? It was an accident, I fell down and hit my head."

"I just can't stand the thought of loosing you." Tyler shyly mentioned.

"You will never loose me." I put my hand on his soft cheek.

"Good, you better not leave me." Tyler joked with me.

"Does this mean we can go ice skating?" My voice got high, and I sounded like a three year old.

"Let's wait an hour or two, so your swelling can go down." Tyler looked at the mark.

"Thank you so much!" I hugged him tightly.

"Who knew you would be so excited about that?" Tyler laughed. He pulled me in for another hug. He rubbed my back.

~~**~~

"Okay it's been two hours! Let's go!" I jumped into Tyler's bed, laying beside him. I saw him rub his eyes.

"Morning sleepy head." I played with his hair.

"What time is it?" His voice was full of sleep. It was raspy and deep, making me go numb. It was so sexy.

"7:30." I looked at my phone.

"Oh."

"I didn't mean to wake you. I am sorry. I didn't realize you were sleeping." I said.

"I was just about to get up anyways. It's okay."

"That is a terrible lie." I crossed my arms.

"Okay you are right. But I would rather spend my days awake with you then sleeping and not with you." He sat on the floor across from me, and grabbed both of my hands. His thumb massaging my thumb.

"I am glad you feel that way, because we are going!" I pulled his hands up from off the ground taking him by surprise.

"Oh my God, you are so strong! How did you lift me?" Tyler chuckled.

"My dad wanted more boys." I snickered. "Let's go!"

~~**~~

"It is even more cold in here than outside." Tyler grabbed his hoodie.

"Yep." I looked around and admired the ice. I took off my jacket.

"Are you crazy? You are going to freeze without that!" Tyler looked at me like I was a mental patient.

"I am cold blooded." I laughed.

"You won't be smiling when your butt is an ice cube." Tyler smoldered.

"I should kill you. I really should." I looked at his lips.

"What would you do without me though?" He wrapped his strong arms around my waist. He pulled me in closer looking at my lips. Our lips almost touched when I heard a voice.

"Alyce!" I recognized the voice anywhere. I looked at Tyler, and chuckled. He was just about as flustered as I was.

I turned around, and saw the whole gang. "Hey Posey Tosey!"

"I swear if you call me that." He walks up and hugs me.

"Lighten up Posey's Pole." I smile at him.

''Hey!" All of the girls walk up and hug me. I hug them all and we talk for a good ten minutes. I hug the rest of the group then I get on the ice.

I glide onto the ice. I help Tyler onto the ice. Tyler starts to get the hang of it. I cling on the wall and pretend I am bad so he can come and help me. I wanted to see how good he can try and teach me.

"Okay so just like march." Tyler started demonstrating. "Like a soldier."

"Okay." I giggled.

He grabbed my hands, and steadied me. We went around the ice a good three times together. He was holding my hand, and every now and then keeping me from falling.

"Okay now I am not going to help you." He let go of my hands. He sees me 'struggling', and rushes back over to me.

"I thought you said you were done helping me?" I smirked ta him

"I couldn't resist myself. You are too cute." Tyler smiled.

"Okay I think I got it now." Tyler slowly let go of me, and I did a few figure eights around the ice. Then I do a spin rotation for about thirty seconds. I run on my skates back to him.

''How did you pick that up so quickly? You are amazing!"

"I have always known how to skate. I took lessons as a kid. It was just cute watching you trying to teach me."

"Let's race." Tyler says, and then starts counting down. "Go!"

He goes as quick as he could. I watch him  fall on his butt. I skate backwards to him, and start laughing.

"Still think you are better than me?" I cross my arms, and raise an eyebrow. I help him up.

"Now you are just showing off."
