No Way Out

The Ride

Ellie and Alex had been dating for a few months now.  

"This is the best I've felt in a long time."  Alex said to Ellie one day.

"Me too." she answered, her mind elsewhere.

"Hey.  Are you okay?" he asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine, just tried." she lied.

------------

After Alex left Ellie was sprawled across her bed, thinking.

Lately, I haven't been feeling like I really belong with Alex.  I don't know what is wrong with me.  He's so sweet, sincere and, and.  She couldn't think of anything else she liked about him.  I  need to take a walk.

As Ellie walked around on the dark paths, she felt better.

As she approached Robin's house she saw a figure outside, on a motorcycle.

"Hey Sebastian!" she quietly called out.

"Hi!" he said, "Hey, you know the ride I said I'd take you on?"

She nodded.

"Well, if you want to come, here's your chance."

Ellie quickly hopped on the motorcycle and put on a helmet.

"Here." said Sebastian, handing her a scarf, "It gets could where we are going."

"Thanks!" she whispered, as she put on the scarf."

A/N:

Hi.  I am really sorry to be interrupting the story I just wanted to say that I am sorry about the scarf part.  You know when you have the ten heart event with Sebastian, you ride in front of the moon and suddenly there's a scarf.  That was always so weird to me and I wanted to justify it.  

Anyway, thanks for reading!  Here's the rest of the chapter.

When they finally hopped off the bike they were on the edge of a cliff, overlooking ZuZu City.

"So, do you like it?" asked Sebastian.

"Yes." she replied, "But it gives me a strange, haunted feeling."

"Hmm." he said, "That's how I feel.  It used to draw me in, but now,  I prefer it here."

There was a moment of content silence.

 "Ellie?" Sebastian asked timidly.

This caught her attention, Sebastian was never nervous.

"I don't normally bring girls up here.  I mean, you're the only one."

Ellie felt her heart pound in her chest as she realized what was about to happen.

He kissed her.

She kissed him back and it lit a fire in her stomach.

Wait?  What am I doing?  she thought, I have a boyfriend!  But...

They kept kissing, his hands running through her hair, her hands caressing the small of his back.  Sebastian let out a moan and started kissing down her neck until he found her sweet spot.  

"Ahhh.  Sebastian."  she whispered his name sending tingles down his spine.

Suddenly she drew back.

"I know you wanted this." she said, "Don't get me wrong." she quickly said a the look of sorrow on his face.  "So did I but, I have a boyfriend."

"So break up with him." Sebastian stated simply.

"I was going to already, before this, but I have never been good with breakups.  But also when I do breakup with him, I won't date you for a while.  I won't be the type of person who just jumps from one relationship to the next."  she said, reassuring herself just as much as him.

"It's fine." he said running his hand through her hair, "I wouldn't have you any other way."
