STAY A LITTLE LONGER

Chapter 19

I woke up to my blasting ringtone.

"What the fuck?" I grumbled not checking my caller.

"Happy Homecoming. Thought you might wanna like a glimpse of your dress for the night, sunshine". That cold and juicy tone jolted me wide awake and soon I was rushing downstairs barefoot. My jaws dropped as I stared awestruck at the beautiful red gown shimmering brightly in the morning light.

"See you soon". The call disconnected.

I couldn't seem to take my eyes off the rippling waves and the soft glistening golden shades of the gown. Clary was right. He had a really good taste.

I huffed in relief as Suzanne ended her briefing ceremony earning a smirk from Ryan. We haven't spent much of a time together since the last evening and I could already feel myself craving to be closer to him.

"Catch you later, Suzanne". Ryan hurriedly dragged me into the training room before she could interject. He barred the door behind hastily and pushed me against the wall.

"Did you miss me?" I bit my lips flashing him a half smile as my fingers played along his neckline.

"Maybe, maybe not". He stepped closer his body pressed onto mine sending jolts of electricity through me. I resisted every temptation to feel his beating heart under that thin fabric.

"Shit". I cursed a little too loudly drawing his attention. He followed my gaze to turn behind. I used the opportunity to twist his hand behind as I pushed him onto his knees in a tight lock.

"Kinky. I like that". He neatly swerved bringing me down along. I picked up myself quickly aiming for his chest. He ducked but instead got punched on that pretty face.

"Ow!" He stumbled back scowling. Again he tried to tackle me but I neatly dove catching his chest in the process.

"Uggh...!". He groaned clutching his chest and I winked. He threw back a sexy grin before attacking. Our movements were blur as I tried desperately to gain an upper hand but he was damn good with his techniques. He moved too quick for my stupid brain to register. Soon I was on my knees panting with my right hand twisted awkwardly behind.

He bowed down and whispered in a seductive tone. "I think I like the view".

I could feel his breath tingling in my neck and I used my head this time and hit him quite hard throwing him off me.

"Oh fuck". He let go of me as he clutched his forehead and backed off. I took his distraction as an opportunity to attack. He dodged my moves. I aimed for his shin but he tripped me. We both fell hard onto the floor with a loud thud, our limbs entangled together. Stars clouded my vision as I tried to draw air into my lungs. My eyes were pinched close as I tried not to wince.

"That was a nasty fall. You alright?" I opened my eyes to the depth of green shades etched with concern.

"I'm fine". I mumbled a faint reply. His hot breath fanned over me. His lips inched closer. My brain was already imagining the taste on my tongue when he gently planted a kiss on my forehead.

"I love you, Sky". He laid on his elbow over me his green eyes reflecting the soft light of the room and before my brain could interrupt, I confidently uttered,"I love you too,Ry...".

The words drowned in my throat as his lips swallowed mine in a deep and affectionate kiss. He drew away almost instantly leaving me on the floor desperate for more. A smug smile appeared on his lips as he pulled me up onto his lap so that I could wrap my thighs around him. I snaked my arms around his neck as his fingers curled around my waist pulling me closer setting my skin on fire. He gently tilted my head as I kissed his lips slowly teasing, letting my hands slip under his shirt feeling his perfectly toned abs. He shivered under my touch. I smiled as I pulled back.

Fuck!Fuck!Fuck!

My phone rang disrupting our cozy embrace. I chuckled as he groaned pulling away and burying his head in the crook of my neck pecking it lightly. The smile from my face modified to an amused expression when I saw my caller.

"Hello love. Missing me already?"

"Raphael". I bit my lips as Ryan continued to kiss, his fingers sending jolts of electricity through me. "Can you see me in an hour?"

"Anything for you sweetheart".

A victorious smile crossed my face as I whispered into Ryan's ears."I gotta run love".

Raphael's chuckled resounded from the other end while I could already sense that smug look on Ryan's face as I disconnected the call.

"Show me what you got babes". Ryan smirked pulling away.

"How about I let Jake describe that?" He pouted reaching out for one last kiss before the game wrapped us in it's tentacles.

I pulled down my hoodie as I walked into the nearly empty bar, spotting my half sober host flirting with the lady behind the counter.

"Hey".

"Skylar". He staggered from his seat to hug me only to fall back on his ass. I rolled my eyes in disgust as I dragged him towards the farthest corner and he slumped into his seat.

"2 vodka". I smiled politely as the lady took the orders.

"I'm sorry. Some old friends offered you know". He sat up straightening his ruffled jacket.

"What are you wearing for the night?"

"Wait. Is this real? The Wayland High princess is asking me for a date. Fuck!" I rolled my eyes in disgust.

"Okay. I'm wearing black. I can change if you want". He eyed me expectantly and I felt it my utter responsibility to shatter his dreams.

"I already have a date for the night and I'm wearing red. And I think your color is perfect for the night".

"Are you going with Ryan?" I resisted every attempt to laugh at his jealous face.

"You'll see soon, love. I'll tell Vienna to put on black. Thank me later for getting you a date". I smiled politely batting my eyelashes as I handed over his drink.

"Cheers". The bitter liquid felt so good as I downed it slowly. A grin plastered on my face as I paid for my drink and walked out of the bar, leaving behind a dreaming douche bag.
