Ryan

I watched the door close behind Skylar as she walked out. After a minute of silence, I let out a frustrated scream.

God, I'm so stupid! How could I let myself get caught up in her and almost kiss her? One second. I lose it for one second, and we almost kiss. How could I let this happen? This couldn't happen. I made a promise to myself and dammit I was going to keep it.

But the problem was, I had wanted to kiss her so badly. Ever since I left work Saturday, I couldn't get her out of my head. I tried desperately to find an excuse to go to the front desk, but there wasn't a need. I just wanted to see her.

I put a hand over my racing heart and sighed, falling back on the bed in frustration. This wasn't good. Not good at all.

Oh my God, I'm turning into a total girl.

The problem was, I wanted it to happen. I wanted to so badly run after her and finish what we started. But I didn't just want her body, I wanted to know her. Which scared scared the fuck out of me by the way.

I heard the sadness in her voice when she talked about her mom, step-dad, and step-sister. What happened there?

I heard her breath catch when I called her Skye. Why? Was that a good or a bad thing?

I could tell that she hasn't had it easy, she has her guard up around everyone. But there was something. Just something so captivating about her that made you want to kiss her every scar and take away her every worry.

I hadn't felt anything like this since Casi. And that didn't have a happy ending.

I just had to ignore these feelings because truthfully? Nothing good ever comes out of being in a relationship with Ryan Gray.

Nothing.

"Okay!" Adam yelled out after we unloaded the quads and my dirt bike. "Lets fuel up and get going!"

I grabbed my gas can that we had filled up earlier that morning and uncapped it, filling up my bike. Just as the tank was damn near full, Skylar walked in front of me in her tight-fitting dirt bike pants, boots, and plain black, skin tight, tank top that hugged her chest and curves admiringly. My eyes raked over her and i saw something poking out of Skylar's belly button. Is that a belly button ring..?

"Shit!" I yelled out as the tank over filled and the gas leaked over my bike. I put the cap on the gas can and my bike, and set the can on the ground. I debated on wiping the gas up or not but thought against it. It'll dry.

"Smooth move ex lax." Skylar muttered while filling up her quad. I looked over at her and saw that she now had on her riding Jersey. Thank god. I would've probably crashed if she went out riding in that thing.

I didn't bother to answer, I just threw the gas can in the back of the truck and put on my chest protector and helmet. Everyone else followed my lead, except Skylar put on a back pack that was filled with anything we need; some tools, a tow strap, a water bottle. All the good stuff.
