Him

chapter 4

We were now sitting on the grass, looking over the water as it crashed against the bottom of the mountains. The breeze was hitting my face, calming me down. Ryker sat next me taking deep breaths. He stares at the glistening water. I look over to him. I cant help but admire his facial features. His sharp jaw line, the moles he has by chin, his bleached hair and tattoo covered arms.

I never noticed how he had tattoos. I wonder what their story is. I stand up from the patchy grass. Ryker looks at me and stands up beside me. I turn to look at him, our eyes locking. He then pulls me into a strong hug. We just stand there in a full embrace. Its been a while since I've been hugged like this. Just as I began to hug back, he let go.

"Lets go back", he says as he begins to walk back to the front of the house where his car is.

"Okay", I faintly whisper as I follow him back to the car. He opens the door for me and helps me in.

He then climbs into the car and begins the drive back to 'our' home.

We get to the front of our house. The movers were now gone and 3 more cars were in our drive way.

Ryker hadn't looked at me. Not once on the whole ride home.

We walk in the house to see my dad and his fiance sitting in the living room.

"Where have you been?!", Lydia ask worried.
"The house", Ryker says as he walks past her.
He bumped her shoulder without saying a word.

"Listen, I know we got on the wrong foot bu-", Lydia started as I cut her off.

"It's fine. I say and start walking up the stairs up to my room. I look down to see my dad staring at me.

I walk to my room and close the door behind me.

I lay on my bed.

Ryker

He's now my future step brother. Who would of thought.

Morning

I woke up to the sound of music blaring in the room next to mine.

Ryker

I clumsily get up from my bed and walk into the hall way. I knock in his door.

Behold.
Opens up a shirtless Ryker. Damm

"May I help you?", he says snapping my attention back to him. My cheeks heated up.

"Huh?, um, oh yeah,u, could you turn your music down?", I ask. Looking down to my feet.
"Sure", he says and closes his door in my face.

Rude

I walk back into my room. Just as I close the door, the music begins again.

Ugh

I knock on his door again. He opens up.
This time with a shirt on.

"Your music", I say a little stern.
He reaches into his pocket and pulls of a little remote and presses a button that shuts off the music.

"Thanks", I say and turn around. As I'm walking away Ryker calls me

"Hey, um, I'm going to get some breakfast...Wanna come with?", he ask, a little awkward.

"Um sure... give me a minute to get dressed",I say and scurry into my room.

I step in to see my window open.

I hear movement.

Suddenly, a hand covers my mouth.
