The Love That Went Between Us:Rio Lane's Story

chapter 4

I lock my room and hear whispering down stairs. I also hear some punches. Hm, what can that be? I slowly unlock my door and gently walk down the stairs to see what's going on. I take a peel and see two people throwing fists at each other. One of them was the intruder but the other one has black sleek hair, blue crystal eyes, and...it's Tyler!!!!

The vase broke and a man fell down. I gasp and check to see who it was. I turn and see... the robber.. he's..on the floor!

I looked up at Tyler shaking so nervously. "You forgot your jacket in my car." He holds it out and I grab it carefully. "Actually it's a cardigan..", I fix my glasses with my hands shaking, but they fell off. I knelt down trying to find them but Tyler grabbed my hand and lifted me up holding my glasses. "T-Thank you..". He looks at me with a concerned look. "What's wrong? I'm not going to hurt you, I'll protect you okay? I'll called your dad and he should be on his way already." "How did you know about the robber coming here?" " I didn't, I came here to drop of your ja-- your cardigan and well I saw some guy who broke your window to get in. I came in to protect you too." I fix glasses and look at Tyler. Why does he look so attractive when he is sweaty like that.. with his muscular chest, muscular arms and..ohh he's bleeding from knuckles! "Y-You're bleeding! Hold on, let me get the first aid." I searched through the drawers and cabinets until I found it. I put a bit of alcohol on the cuts which made him grunt. So cute. What!? Okay focus Rio.. I put cotton and tape around them and kisses him on the cheek. Wait what!?! Did i?..oh God... He smirked at me and I turned very red trying to fix my glasses. He hugs me and lifts me up in the air. I inhale his amazing smell. Smells like..home.. I hug him back shyly until my dad arrived at the door. We both jumped and let ourselves go.

"What happened here!?! Oh Rio sweetheart, I'm so sorry I should've stayed home and taken care of ya! This won't happen again I promise!" I fix my glasses and smiled at my dad even though I was very upset that he left me home alone. "The robber came in and well, Tyler here came and stopped the robber. I gave him some bandages for his knuckles." My dad looks at the both of us and smiles. " I see, Rio it's Okay to have a boyfriend but he cannot come over when I'm not here." I turned red. "What!?! Dad no no.. Tyler is not my boyfriend.. he's just a friend who came and protected me from an intruder. I can assure that there's nothing intimate going on between us.." Tyler nodded and smiled but the smile went away fast. Poor Tyler.. I'm so sorry.. "Okay I believe you Rio. Thank you Tyler for taking care of Rio while I was gone." Dad shakes Tyler's hand and Tyler nods. "Now will the two of you excuse me. I have to leave home already. My parents are calling me home." He opens the door and waves bye to me. I sigh and decide to go after him. "Tyler wait.." He looks at me. I couldn't just let him be sad after what I said. I ran up to him and kiss his lips softly. What am I doing!?! I'm kissing Tyler!?! Oh God.. I think I'm going to fai- Tyler slowly wraps his arms around my waist and pulls me closer. I slide my arms around his neck slowly. Is this what kissing feels like... I like it..
