More Than Friends

chapter 12

"Jasmine" his voice barely a whisper

I felt the walls closing in on me at this exact moment I couldn't believe my eyes I was speechless as he stepped closer I flinched back

"Look hear me out, please I need to explain my actions" he sighed

I just nod my head as I felt tears begin to form in my eyes it felt so unreal and I just wish we could rewind time and do things different and make things better.

"I..I'm..sorr.. Look I know sorry isn't enough to even cover what i did but that's why I'm here i wanna show you it's gonna be different.." he pauses as tears fall down my face " I know I hurt you and I'm never going to forgive myself for leaving you and our son, I wish I could of been their when he was born and all his milestones I missed because of my mistakes you both don't deserve to suffer because of me..." his eyes water " Their isnt a day that goes by that I don't wish I could hold you again and see my son grow it tortures me everyday since I've been gone..." he moves closer "I just want your forgiveness and I wanna meet our son" he frowns.

I frown looking at him wiping my cheeks "Ryder..." I sigh " His name is Ryder Anthony Lynch he was born a few hours after you left" I sigh he looks hurt

"Look riker it's gonna take sometime to get past what happened, but they say forgiving is a way to start but I'm terrified to let you in again after everything." I shake my head

"I understand but let me try please" he says sincerly

"Prove me wrong" I say bluntly as he nods looking away

"Happy birthday by the way" he smiles slightly I return it as he pulls out a box " For you" he says handing it to me

I grab the box opening it slowly to reveal a necklace well a locket with a picture of me and him when we first met in it and our names engraved in the back along with the date I gasp looking to meet his glaze "it's... It's beautiful riker" I shutter as he grabs it and then moves my hair to put it on.

My breath quickens feeling his hit breath on my neck I shutter as I feel sparks follow threw me making my insides turn to liquid I bit my lip as the door opens behind us as someone clears their througt I jump "am I interrupting anything?" Rocky smiles wiggling his eyebrows I laugh "no bro we were just talking" riker says smiling "hate to ruin your conversation but" just then the door opens "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" everyone yells running to hug me I smile and we all walk to the dancefloor as everyone starts dancing I feel hands on my waist turning me around I close my eyes as riker strokes my check smiling I frown not knowing how to feel so I pull away and run out of the club as tears fall I exit waving down a cab hearing my name being called I slammed the door as he drives off I sob silently.

I find myself on the top of the roof of our hotel I pulled my hair up in a messy bun and put on a hoodie and shorts I sit their watching the cars pass by as I hear footsteps behind me I look back and see riker.

" beautiful isn't it?'" he smiles sitting next to me I nod looking away

"You know it's still your birthday and well I stopped and got these since I could bake a cake" he jokes handing me sour patch kids.

I smile and look at him " What are you doing riker?" I sigh

"Well at first I had no clue but then seeing you tonight I wanna fight for you" he says

I stare at him "am I really worth it?" I frown

"More than I think you know" he sighs grabbing a sour patch kid

"Riker you should know I don't share my sour patch" I laugh hiding them

He pouts looking at me " damn well guess I'll have to distract you then huh? He says smiling and taking my bag

"Riker!" I say as he gets up running towards the door I snatch the bag back passing him as we run down the stairs I slip running into the wall as he pins me against it his hands on either side of my head as he moves his lips to my ear I gasp "easier than I thought" he whispers snatching the bag and running as I Chase him to our rooms he laughs handing me the bag

"I'll see you in the morning then get some sleep ok?" he smiles hugging me kissing my forehead I grab him tightly not wanting to let go he sighs holding me and next thing we know I'm against the wall as he crashs his lips to mine gently kissing me

"I had to do that sorry" he says before realising me and then walks into his room I stand their frozen I wanna forgive him but u need to take it slow I sigh walking into my room as I see rydel asleep with ellington I smile crawling into my bed and tugging the covers over me as I think about today I frown

I feel scared....
