Rylee Girl

I Melt

"I melt
Every time you look at me that way

It never fails
Anytime, any place

This burn in me is the coolest thing
I've ever felt

I melt "

- Rascal Flatts

I laid in bed that night daydreaming of Benjamin until I fell asleep, but while sleeping it wasn't Ben I dreamt about. It was Luke. In the dream he and I were in his bedroom cuddling and just being us the way we used to be. It felt amazing just being with him again. So comfortable. In the background of the dream our song "I Melt" by Rascal Flatts played the entire time. I was starting to stir when my conscious brain realized the song was coming from my phone. Luke's ringtone. I grabbed my phone just as the call ended. I looked at the time. 2:48 AM and I had six missed calls from Luke. I immediately started to panic thinking there was something wrong and woke up all the way. What if he was in an accident? What if he's in the hospital? What if he's dead! With my heart racing I called him back. He picked up on the first ring

"Rylee!" He cried into the phone.

"Luke... What's wrong? Are you ok?" I asked quickly.

"Amy and I are through. We got in a huge fight about you. Sometimes I miss you so much I don't know what to do." Luke explained through tears.

"Luke..." I said not knowing what else to say.

"Can you just...come over for a little bit?" He asked.

Maybe my dream was a premonition. Maybe Luke and I really are meant to be together. After spending three years of my life with him I couldn't help but want what we had back.

"What about your parents?" I questioned.

"Don't worry about it... Just please." He said desperately.

"Be there in a minute" I said and hung up the phone.

I stayed in my pajama pants and tank top with no bra and drove Betty to his house. It was a warm night, but I couldn't stop shivering. By now it was 3 am and the whole town was asleep. I called Luke to tell him I was there and he said he'd let me in.

"Let me in? What about your alarm?" I whispered into the phone from outside his house realizing this plan wasn't very thought through.

"Don't worry about it just come to the door and be quiet." He ordered.

He opened the door as slowly and quietly as humanly possible and I tiptoed inside. The light from the moon illuminating his face, he looked like he'd been crying for hours. He pointed to his stairs motioning for me to go up. As I walked through I could hear every bathroom vent on in the house. We walked upstairs and into his room.

"What'd you do, turn on every vent so they couldn't hear the door beep?" I asked. Luke's family had one of those alarm systems where every door and window goes 'beep-beep' anytime it's opened.

"Yup" he said smiling like he was a genius.

I rolled my eyes and asked "So... why did you want me to come over?"

"I missed you... I really really missed you" Luke said grabbing my ass and bringing me closer to him.

His face touching mine. His eyes sad. Our bodies got just as close as they were the day we broke up. I could feel myself letting my guard down and sank into the comfort of Luke. I could feel his hard on through his shorts and felt myself yearning for it again.

"What about Amy?" I whispered never moving my body away from his. "You're really done?"

"Pretty much... I mean... We're not officially broken up... But I'm done. I want you back Rylee." He said lifting my chin and kissing me like he had done a dozen times before. His kiss so familiar I couldn't let go.
