Lets begin the game

Chapter 11

Coras pov.:

I automatically wrap my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck so I don't fall on my butt.

His head is buried in the crook of my neck. He presses me hard against his chest.

I sense how he is slightly shaking. I whisper into his ear "Everything is ok. You can calm down Nico"

I softly push his chin up so he looks at me. I look into his black eyes, ok almost black more like a really dark grey, and I carefully put my hand on his cheek.

I softly giggle "I didn't know you would get this worried about me" He chuckles slightly "I didn't know that either"

Damn I've never noticed how raspy and deep his voice is.

I look at our position while I blush aggressively red and look around nervously.

Cuuuuute! His cheeks are slightly pink too!

I see how he looks at my lips a moment longer than he should.

No.Nonononono. This is not going to happen. I don't even like him and he thinks I'm a monster!!!!

I get out of his hold and I grin nervously "S-so.....I'll going to look where Ryder is" He nods and scratches the back of his neck "Ye-yeah"

I give him one of my rare real sweet smiles and I walk to Ryders room.

I open the door and it's completely trashed. All his books are thrown on the floor. Shattered picture frames all around the room. There's even a punch hole in the wall.

I start to panic and I run out of his room looking for him.

Please I have to find him....He's probably completely trashed too...I have to find him before he does what he always does when he's completely broken.

I bump hard into Charlie and I almost fall down. He looks at me surprised and hugs me "Thank god you're ok boss" I hug him back and nod "Yeah"

I grip his shoulders hard and I look at him intensely "Charlie where's Ryder?!"

He looks at me worried and he sighs "He's probably in warehouse 1, 1 or 2 training hall. But be careful"

I run as fast as I can to the warehouse and I rip the door open. There's Gael standing in front of the door of the training hall 2.

He hugs me warmly and looks really relieved "Omg you're ok. Ryder is in here. He's a complete mess"

I'm about to open the door but Gael puts his hand on my shoulder "I don't know if you really want to go in there if Ryder is in that state"

I snap at him "You have no right of stopping me" I enter the hall and I have to hold back my tears.

There he is, slumped against a wall. One half empty vodka bottle in his bleeding hands and like two empty ones that he already smashed against the wall.

His face is stained with tears and he has a busted lip.

I approach him and I kneel in front of him. I take the bottle out of his hands and I look at him.

He looks at me completely surprised and he takes my face in his hands and kisses me.

He kisses me like I could vanish any second. Like his life was depending on it.

I let it slide this time since he's completely wasted.

He separates his lips from mine a little ans he says with a really raspy voice "I thought he took you. I thought I would never see you even again. I thought I lost you." His lips brush against mine as he speaks.
