Ryan

After Skylar finally finished putting the remainder of her clothes away, she slumped down on the couch beside me.

"You didn't crowed the entire bathroom with makeup did you?"

She looked over at me with narrowed eyes, "No I didn't thank you very much. Not every girl wears 50 pounds of make-up." I shrugged, "You know, I don't know anything about you." I commented.

She shrugged, "You know the basics."

I rolled my eyes, "For all I know, you could be a serial killer rapist. I think I deserve to know who I'm living with."

She nodded in agreement, "Well, I'm Skylar Rae Roberts." 

"Ryan Mathew Gray." she raised an eyebrow, followed by a smirk, "Mathew?"

A slight tinge of pink coated my cheeks, "Yeah, It's a family name." 

 She smiled, and I sighed, "Well, when's your birthday?" 

"July 25th. You?"

"February 28th. Favorite color?"

"Blue."

"Green." 

She looked at me thoughtfully while biting her bottom lip softly. I bet they're soft...

No! My god, this is getting out of control. First I go through her underwear drawer (Which I really didn't plan on looking through by the way), and then I start to think about her lips? I need to get myself under control.

"You have any tattoos?" she questioned while leaning the side of her head in her hands, facing me. 

I nodded, "Yeah, on my back. You?" 

She nodded and pulled up the sleeve of her long sleeve shirt, showing me the tattoo on her wrist. It was the quote; "Everything happens for a reason." placed in an infinity sign on her left wrist. Her fist was clenched, making her vein pop out slightly in the middle. 

I looked up at her and saw her smiling, "It's really cool." I commented, "When'd you get it?"

"For my seventeenth birthday. I have another one on my side and behind my ear." My eyebrows rose and she rolled her eyes, "No you can't see it." 

I huffed, "Fine, how many piercings do you have?"

She sighed and stated counting on her fingers, "Let's see here...my nose, eyebrow, my first and second holes, an extra ear one, belly button, and industrial which is two. So that's ten." 

My eyes flickered to her stomach and then back up to her eyes, "You have your belly button pierced?" She nodded once and I smirked, "That's hot." 

She rolled her eyes but I could see the evident blush on her cheeks, making my heart race. "So have you ever had a relationship that's lasted longer than a night?" she questioned with a smirk.

My mouth gaped open, how'd she find out about that? "How'd you find out about that?" I voiced my thoughts.

She shrugged and chuckled, "Adam might've mentioned it a time or two."

I rolled my eyes and sighed, leaning against the armrest of the couch, "Yeah I have actually."

Her eyebrows rose in surprise, "Really? And who is this lucky lady?"
