Better With You

XXX

RYDER'S POV

It's been two weeks since the incident.

My number is changed and Mikey has me under a super secret contact name.

Right now I'm in Weston's car cause he wanted to hang out.

Why?

I have no clue either.

"To get to know me better." Is what he said.

"Weston can you take me home now?" I asked.

He checked his phone.

"Um yeah sure." He said.

He pulled into a parking space.

"Well this was nice. Bye Weston." I said.

He checked his phone again.

"Um wait no! I have more questions for you! What's your favorite ice cream flavor?" He asked.

"Why does that matter right now?" I asked.

"I'm dying to know. I'm a cookie dough kind of a guy. What about you?" He asked.

"Look, we can go out ice cream some other time. But right now I'm really tired and just want to see Luke." I said getting out of his car.

"Ryder no!" He yelled chasing after me.

I ran into the building frantically pressing the up button on the elevator.

"Hurry please." I pleaded.

Of course Luke and I had to pick the room on the top floor.

He caught up to me.

"Oh christ." I said as the elevator hasn't come to me yet.

I sprinted up the stairs, Weston close behind.

Panting, I reached my door.

As I got my key out, Weston picked me up.

"I'm not playing these games, Weston!" I yelled thrashing myself.

"You can't go in there!" He said.

"Why the hell not?! It's my apartment too!" I protested.

Soon enough the door opened.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

Weston put me down and I slapped his chest.

"I did what you told me. She's quite fiesty though." He said.

"Do what?" I asked crossing my arms.

"I had a surprise planned and thought Weston could distract you." Luke said.

"Well can I go in?" I asked.

"Of course. Your surprise is on the couch." He said.

I walked past him and looked on the couch.

"Ethan?" I asked.
