Chapter Eight: The Strength of Love

	"How could he do this to me?" I thought. "Ryan loves me. It cannot
be anything. He would never. But I saw what I saw."

	I drove faster and faster, my vision blurring as tears kept rolling
down my cheeks. Thankfully I did not live far and soon my black Silverado
pulled up the driveway of my house.  I got out and stormed inside, slamming
the car door behind me. I ran past Amanda and Lydia who were talking in the
hall and ran upstairs to my room and slammed the door. A few moments later,
I heard a knock on the door, "Chase? Is everything alright? Can we come
in?"

	"No!" I yelled, crying.

	Soon I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up at Amanda and Lydia
with bloodshot eyes, "Go away!"

	"Chasey Poo...aww. What's wrong?"

	"He's fucking cheating on me!"

	"What?! Ryan?!"

	"Yes." I said sobbing uncontrollably.

	"What happened?" Lydia asked.

	"I came back and I saw fucking Peter naked, leaning in to kiss
Ryan. I ran out of there before I saw anything."

	"Chase. I am sure he would never do that. He loves you." Amanda
said.

	"But why was he in that situation? What if he did try something?"

	"BUZZ" rang the phone. I looked down at it, "Is it him?" Amanda
asked.

	"Yes." I said, holding the phone in my hand. I hit the ignore
button.

	"Chase! Talk to him."

	"I can't. I am mad at him. How could he?"

	"Chase? Do you love him?" Lydia asked.

	"Yes I do. With all my heart. I have never felt this before. I get
butterflies whenever I am around him. He makes me feel like no one is more
special than me. He makes me feel like everything is right when I am with
him."

	"Aww. Chase! Call him back. He loves you. You know in your heart he
won't cheat on you." Amanda said.

	"Well what if he did? Yes I know he wouldn't, but what if he did?
And that's what's killing me. The fact that that he would put himself in
that situation."

	"Aww Chase. You love him. He deserves you." Lydia said.

	"No. I just want it to be over." I said laying back down on my bed,
putting my face in the pillow and starting to cry. Amanda and Lydia just
stayed there for a bit until I fell asleep.

	I woke up the next morning, my eyes puffy and red from crying all
night. I looked at my phone and realized I had seven missed calls, all from
Ryan. Slowly, I got up and walked to the bathroom and stripped. I stepped
in the shower and turned on the hot water. Hot water cascaded off my naked
body, melting away the stress. I closed my eyes and images of Ryan and I in
the shower together: Him grazing his fingertips over my cheek, then tracing
my jawbone and resting it on the back of my head; pulling me in to kiss
him. Water trickling down our faces as we made out. Suddenly I felt sick
and got a stabbing feeling in my heart. I leaned forward and leaned against
the wall and started to cry. I thought thinks over in the shower for ten
minutes; I knew what I had to do.

	After my shower, I got dressed and walked downstairs. Gabe, Ryan,
Lydia and Amanda were all sitting at the kitchen table when I got in, "I am
so sorry." Ryan said.

	"Hey, me too." Gabe put in.

	"It's ok. Listen Ryan? Gabe? Can I stay with one of you guys for a
while? I want...I want to move back to Louisiana."

	"What?" Lydia and Amanda said in unison.

	"I cannot stay here. There are too many memories already. I am
going to talk to Mom and Dad when they get home.

	"Chase. You...you can't just leave. What about school?" Amanda
protested.

	"I don't know. I just cannot stay here. It's summer here right now
so I don't have to worry about school, by then I should have something
figured out."

	"Chase, is that really the best idea?" Ryan asked.

	"Yes. I need this."

	"Well I am glad we are getting you back, but I hate the situation."
Gabe said.

	"Yeah." I said sighing. Lydia came to me and gave me a hug.

	Later that night, I talked to my parents about moving back to
Louisiana with Gabe, Ryan and Lydia. They said that they would let me leave
for the summer, but they would prefer I go back to school here, so I do not
fall behind.

************************************************************************

	A few days later, my plane landed in Louisiana and I was in the car
to Ryan's house. Ryan's mom welcomed me with open arms as we arrived. She
told me that I would be living in the guest bedroom. I thanked her for
everything. I took my bags to my room. I put them in the corner and fell on
the bed. I could not help but cry; I missed him so much. "How could he
cheat on me?" I thought. I closed my eyes and fell asleep. A few hours
later I heard a knock on the door.

	"Come in." I said.

	The door opened and Ryan came in, "Hey dinner is ready."

	"Ok. I will be right down." I said getting up and following him to
the dinner table.

	I sat down at the dinner table and started picking at my food. Over
the past few days, I had lost my appetite.

	"Chase, dear. You need to eat something." Ryan's mom said.

	"Thank you ma'am. I am not that hungry I guess. Thank you for the
food though."

	"Chase, really you really have not eaten the past few days." Ryan
added.

	"It's ok. I am fine." I said, taking a few bites of food.

	After dinner I went back to my room and went back to sleep.

	The next day was Saturday and I was woken up at nine with Ryan and
Gabe pounding on the door, telling me to get dressed. I groggily got out of
bed and put on some clothes. We ate some cereal and then we piled in Gabe's
truck and were off to the mall. We met up with Dani and a few other girls.

	"What are we doing here?" I asked, as we were looking at clothes in
a department store.

	"We are finding you something hot to wear for tonight's party."
Dani said.

	"Party? What party?"

	"Oh. Chloe is throwing a party, so we are all going." Ryan said.

	"This looks good." Lydia said holding up a dark green button up
shirt.

	"Yeah that would look nice on you. Try it on" Dani agreed.

	"I guess." I said taking the shirt. I started to walk over to the
dressing room when I saw a couple kissing in front of me. I let out a loud
sigh.

	"You still miss him don't you?" Lydia asked.

	"More than anything. He meant the world to me." I answered, trying
hard to hold back the tears.

	"He misses you too. So much. He is miserable without you."

	"Good. He fucking deserves it. After what he did. How do you know
anyway?"

	"Amanda told me. He comes by everyday, wanting to speak to you. He
still loves you, you know?"

	"Fuck him. No he doesn't." I said walking into the dressing room.


************************************************************************

	Later that night, Ryan, Gabe, Lydia and I drove over to Chloe's
house for her party. Her parents went out of town, so she used her
opportunity to throw a huge party.

	When we arrived, the party was already in full swing. People were
drunk and some had taken various parts of their clothes off. We all walked
into the kitchen and talked, meeting random people from school.

	"Pretty Face Mitchell." A guy from the football team said. "When
did you get back in town?"

	"Ugh. I hate that nickname. Yesterday. What's new with you?"

	"Nothing much, just enjoying summer."

	That's how most of the night went on. I met up with a lot of
friends, which I had not seen in a while. There were a few new faces, but
mostly I knew everyone. There was one new guy that kept looking at me all
night. Whenever I caught him looking, he quickly looked away. I decided to
find out who he is.

	"Hi there. How are you? I am Chase. Do I know you?"

	"No. I am Jeremy. But most people call me Jer."

	We started talking and he offered me a drink. I told him I did not
drink so he came back with two cokes. I took the drink from him and downed
it in one swig. We continued talking, but realized it was very hard to
hear. We decided to go look for a quieter place. After walking around, we
found an upstairs bedroom that was empty and quiet.  Jer sat on the bed and
I sat down next to him.

	My head started to feel weird and my eyelids felt heavy. My vision
started blurring and I started slurring my words. I leaned back and fell
onto the bed. Jer got on top of me and started kissing my neck. I told him
to stop and tired to push him off but I could barely move.

	Suddenly I hear a familiar voice telling him to get off me. I
looked to see two blurred figures rushing towards me and Jer. I saw someone
hit Jer and then my vision gave and I blacked out.

	I woke up the next day in my bed, with someone holding me. I turned
around to see Ryan still asleep, holding me. I felt very safe, but then
images of Peter and Ryan came to my mind and I was boiling with rage.

	"What the fuck are you doing?" I screamed pushing him so hard off
me that he fell of the side of the bed.

	"Chase...I...you--" he began, but I cut him off.

	"What the fuck happened last night? Never mind just get the fuck
out! Leave."

	"Please Chase."

	"Just get the fuck out!" I yelled throwing the pillow at him.

	I could see the tears streaking down his face as he turned and
walked out the room. I collapsed on the bed and started crying. Soon I felt
a hand on my back and someone saying it is ok. I looked up to see Lydia and
Gabe looking at me.

	"What happened?" I asked, barely being able to speak.

	"Jeremy tried to rape you last night. He put a roofie in your
coke. He would have succeeded if Ryan and Ryan had not run in to stop
him. They saved you." Lydia explained. "Apparently Jeremy is some sex freak
whose has been tied to a few rapes."

	"What the fuck is he doing here?" I asked.

	"Ryan?" Gabe asked.

	"Yes my cheating ex boyfriend. What the fuck is he doing here?" I
almost screamed.

	"He flew here when Amanda told him that you returned here. Chase he
loves you. We talked last night while you were sleeping. He is miserable
without you."

	"I don't give a fuck." I said with venom in my words. "I just want
to be left alone."

	Lydia and Gabe walked out, leaving me to wallow in my misery.

	The next few days were the same Lydia, Gabe and Ryan asked me to
talk to Ryan again; I just refused. At the end of the week, Lydia told me
that I was to meet her at the Westmoore Hotel restaurant for dinner.  I
said yes, hoping to get my mind off of Ryan.

	I pulled up to the hotel and quickly found a parking spot. It was a
nice night outside and I could clearly see the stars. It was a bit cold and
for a second I wished I was in Ryan's arms. I sighed and told myself to
stop thinking like that.

	I entered the hotel and looked for the restaurant. There was a huge
fountain and to the left corner was the restaurant. The restaurant itself
was very fancy; There were tables covered in red tablecloths and
candles. The smell of good Italian food woffed into my nose. It reminded me
like my first date with Ryan.

	I walked up to the blonde hostess and told her that I was meeting
someone and the reservation was under Lydia. She told me that the person I
was meeting was already there, but had stepped out for a second but she
should seat me. She led me down a row of tables into the very back of the
restaurant, into a private dining room. "Presidential Dining Room" a golden
carved sign read.

	The room was decorated with flowers and sculpture fountains were
against the wall. In the corners, ivy covered Greek columns held up the
walls. In the center of the room was a small table with a single red candle
on it. There was a single rose on each plate. I took a seat and waited.

	Music was lightly playing in the background, too quiet at
firsts. After a few moments I recognized that Dierks Bentely's "Come A
Little Closer" was playing.

Come a little closer baby I feel like layin' you down On a bed of sweet
surrender Where we can work it all out There ain't nothin' that love can't
fix Girl it's right here at our finger tips So come a little closer baby I
feel like layin' you down

Come a little closer baby I feel like lettin' go Of everything that stands
between us And the love we used to know I wanna touch you like a cleansing
rain And let it wash all the hurt away So come a little closer baby I feel
like lettin' go

If there's still a chance than take my hand And we'll steal away Off into
the night Until we make things right The sun's gonna rise, on a better day

	I could not help but shed a tear. The song reminded me so much of
Ryan. Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder, giving me a soft squeeze. I
wiped the tears from my eyes and looked up at who I thought was Lydia.
	"Hi Chase." Ryan said in a low voice.

	"What the fuck are you doing here?" I asked, yelling at him.

	"Lydia and I arranged this. I need to talk to you."

	"I don't care what you have to say."

	"Chase, listen please. Look what you saw; it was not what it
seemed. Peter came on to me, I never wanted it. I love you Chase no one
else. I am miserable without you. You are my everything, Turtle. Please
forgive me. Please come home. I could never hurt you."

	"Well you did Ryan. It hurt really bad what I saw. So goodbye. Just
give up. I don't love you anymore. You are dead to me." I said getting up
and heading for the door.

	"Chase please! I love you! I want..." I did not hear what else he
said since I was too far away.

	I ran out of the hotel and quickly got in the car. I grabbed the
steering wheel and started crying. After five or so minutes, I regained
enough composure to drive to Lydia's house. I was angry at her. "How could
she betray me and trick me?" I thought.

      I got out and started pounding on the door. Lydia answered, and with
a shocked face asked, "Chase what's wrong?"

	"How could you do that? Why?" I said crying.

	"Chasey! It's ok hun." She said, holding me as I cried. She took me
inside to her room and I fell on her bed crying.

	"Chase. It will be ok. Trust me."

	"Why did you and him arrange it?"

	"He misses you. And I know deep down inside you are still in love
with him. He is miserable without you. And you are without him."

	"No I am not. I am fine. I don't need him."

	"Chase look at yourself. Don't lie to yourself. You know you love
him and you want him back."

	"I do. But it is all too complicated now. I just want life to
continue. Without him."

	"Aww Chasey."

	"It's ok. Well I better get home. I don't want to impose." I said
sighing. I felt worse, not only was I lying to myself I was lying to her. I
missed Ryan so much. I want to be with him. I would never be the same
without him.

	"No Chase. Stay here. It is raining so hard. Just spend the
night. I don't want anything to happen to you." Lydia said.

	She showed me to the guest room and soon I was drifting off to
sleep.

	Suddenly I was in the mall. In a long dark corridor, at first I did
not recognize it but it was the same corridor Tyler attacked me. Far ahead
of me was a door leading to the well lit mall. I heard footsteps behind me
and I started walking towards the door. The door seemed to be getting
further and further away as I tried harder and harder to get there. I
started running as the footsteps grew louder and louder.
	"There is nowhere to run Chase." Said a voice behind me.
	I turned to see Tyler looking at me. His eyes burned red as he gave
out a malicious laugh. "There is no way out. No escaping. You will be
mine." He taunted.
	There was a noise behind me and I saw Ryan walking up. He ran at
Tyler screaming.
	"Ryan. Help!" I yelled as Tyler lunged at me. He knocked me to the
floor and I saw him and Ryan fighting. He punched Ryan hard and he fell to
the floor. Suddenly everything went black. When the lights came back on I
saw Tyler standing with Ryan next to him. Ryan looked at me with pure fear
in his eyes.
	"Ryan!" I yelled stepping towards him but suddenly couldn't walk
anymore. There seemed to be an invisible wall between us. "Ryan!"
	"There is no use Chase. You gave him up." Tyler mocked.

	"NO!! RYAN!! PLEASE!!!" I begged.

	"You told him you didn't love him anymore. You did this Chase."

	"NO!! HELP!! PLEASE!! I DIDN'T MEAN IT!!"

	"Yes you did. You said he was dead to you."
	"NO!!!"

	"Well I can help you out with that one Chase." Tyler spat, reaching
into his pocket and pulling out a switchblade. He opened the blade and
pointed it at Ryan.

	"PLEASE!!! DON'T!!" I yelled.

	Tyler brought the blade closer to Ryan's throat. Ryan did not move
he was just in a trance state. Tyler poked the blade to Ryan's throat and
let out a cruel laugh.

	"PLEASE!!! NO!!!"

	Tyler lowered the knife. "You are right Chase. You broke his
heart. He does not need it anymore." With that he brought the knife with
all his might into Ryan's chest over his heart. The blade quickly entered
Ryan's chest until just the handle was left. Tyler let go of the handle as
it stuck in Ryan's heart. Blood started flowing out of the wound down
Ryan's shirt. Ryan looked at me and with his last gasp of air said, "I love
you!" His eyes went black and suddenly he disappeared. Tyler started
laughing, his eyes glowing with pure hatred and merciless sadistic
pleasure.

	"RYAN!!!" I yelled as I jolted from my sleep. I started crying and
yelling "Ryan!" over and over again. Lydia ran in and held me and told me
all was going to be ok. When I had calmed down enough to speak, I told her
about my dream.

	"I am an idiot. Lydia. I fucked it all up. He loves me still and I
told him he was dead to me. What do I do?" I cried.

	"Shh. Chase. It will be ok." She said holding me tight. "Call
him. It is still early."

	I looked at the clock on the nightstand and realized it was only 11
at night. I picked up my phone and called Ryan's cell. I told him to come
over to Lydia's. Fifteen minutes later he knocked on Lydia's door.
	I opened the door and took his hand and we took a walk; thankfully
the rain had stopped.

	"Ryan...I..I am sorry."

	"For what Chase? It was all my fault. I should never have let Peter
stay."

	"No. I over reacted. I am sorry. I missed you so much. I love you
baby."

	"Chase. I love you too. Now and forever."

	I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him into me. I kissed
him with all my strength. I slipped my tongue into his mouth and he slipped
his into mine. Rain started pouring down as we continued to make out. I
pulled him as tight as I can; my body pressed against his. The rain
thundered on the driveway as we made out with more passion. Soon both our
clothes were soaked and stuck to our bodies. I walked backwards with him
and leaned back onto his rental car. I started playing with his hair as I
held him by the back of his head pulling him deeper into me. I could feel
one of his hands peel back my shirt and slide over my abs. I felt his
tongue massage the back of my mouth.

      I slid one hand down his back over his shirt. Once I reached the
bottom, I slipped a hand into it and massaged the bottom of his back. He
broke the kiss and looked me deep in the eyes and told me he loved me. He
lowered his head down and started to lick the water droplets off my neck
and started to suck on my neck. I let out a moan as he started to bite my
neck a little.

      He leaned back and lifted up my shirt and started to kiss my abs and
stomach. I could feel his tongue lapping up the water as it fell on my
abs. He started to suck and bite my stomach a little causing me to moan. I
ran my fingers through his hair.

      Then it hit me that we were outside in the front of Lydia's house. I
reached my fingers down over Ryan's cheek and then hooked them under his
chin and pulled him up to me. I kissed him again and told him that we
better take this inside.

      He grabbed my hand and pulled me up off the car and we ran back to
Lydia's front porch. When we opened the front door, Lydia came in from the
kitchen and quickly got us some towels.

	"You two must be freezing. You both need a hot shower."

	"Yeah." We both said.

	"Well, there is one bathroom down the hall and another one
upstairs. But who am I kidding you two want to shower together."

	"Lydia!!" groaned Chase.

	"What? I know you will."

	"Yeah. But you don't have to say it out loud."

	"Let's just go baby." Ryan said, grabbing my hand and leading me to
the downstairs bathroom. He pulled me into the room and closed the door
behind him. He pushed me up against the door and started leaned in to put
his lips on mine. I felt him slide his tongue in my mouth, as I slid mine
into his. I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and pulled him in closer
by the back of his neck.

      After a few minutes of making out he told us that we better get into
the shower before we get too cold. He turned around and turned on the hot
water and then came back to me, kissed me and then started to take off my
drenched shirt. I took his off and then pulled him in again and started
making out with him. I pulled him in as close as I could so our chests were
rubbing against each other. He broke the kiss and started sucking on my
neck; running his fingertips down my chest and abs and resting them at my
waistline. Quickly he started to undo my belt and unbutton my jeans and
fly. He then started to lick down my chest; stopping at my left nipple. I
shuddered as I felt his tongue run circles over it, lightly biting and
sucking on it. I let out a moan as he moved on to my other nipple, before
kissing and licking further down my body to my abs. He sucked and kissed my
abs and flicked his tongue in and out of my belly button.

      When he reached my waist band, he started to lick a line from one
side of my body to the other and taking my pants and boxer briefs off at
the same time. Sliding his hands up and down my thighs as he started to
kiss and lick all around my cock. He kissed down my inner thigh almost to
the knee then licked all the way back, then over my balls; stopping to suck
on each. Then he flicked his tongue over the tip of my cock cleaning my
cock of any precum. Slowly he inched more and more of my cock into his
mouth until he started deep throating it all. He started to pick up the
pace as he moved his fingertips up and down my side and over onto my chest,
scratching it a little. I put my hands on the top of his head, pulling him
closer as I ran my fingers through his hair.

      I could feel myself getting closer and I started to buck my hips
forward driving my cock deeper into Ryan's mouth. He sucked harder and
faster, running his tongue over the underside of my shaft as it went in and
out of his mouth. I could my balls tense up as I shot my load deep in his
mouth. He kept sucking my sensitive tip until my orgasm subsided. He then
kissed back up my chest to my lips. We started to make out and I could
taste my cum in his mouth. He broke the kiss and said, "I missed that." He
got up and took off his pants and boxers, then winking he stepped back into
the shower and grabbed my hand and pulled me into the shower with him.

      Once in the shower, he pulled me into him, wrapping his arms around
my waist. The water cascaded down our bodies as I felt every inch of his
skin against mine. He slipped his tongue into my mouth, as I slipped mine
into his. After a bit I broke the kiss and licked the water off his cheek
and licked up to his neck. Stopping at his ear, I whispered "Ryan, I want
to feel you inside me." I slid my tongue around his ear for a bit than
licked back to his lips and kissed him again then turned around.
	He put his hands on my waist and slid them over my side forwards
and up my abs. I felt his off my shoulder tongue licking off some water,
causing me to moan. I stepped back so my back was pressed up against his
front. He kissed up my shoulder, up my neck to my ear. "I love you" he
moaned before sliding his tongue around it. I ground my ass into his hard
cock, feeling the tip leaking a little precum right by my hole. "Fuck me" I
moaned.

	He slid a hand down over my abs, over the side and onto his cock
and guided it in my ass. I let out a moan as the tip broke through my
sphincter, allowing him to enter me. He bit my shoulder as he slowly moved
more of him inside me. Surges of pure energy were coursing through my body
and I felt an ecstasy I had never felt before. I had missed him so much,
like a part of me was missing; and tonight I felt whole again.

	I could feel him start to quicken the pace as he fucked me; pulling
his cock almost completely out then slamming it back in. With each thrust,
Ryan hit my prostate harder and harder; slowly causing something to stir in
my balls. I moaned out loud as he continued to fuck me and lick and bite my
neck and shoulders. He slid his hands all over my wet slippery abs and
chest; almost scratching them. I leaned forward and braced myself against
the wall as he slid his cock in and out of me.

      He quickened his pace even more, bringing me closer and closer over
the edge. "Oh Chase. I am close." He moaned in my ear, as he continued to
pound my ass. I slid one of my hands down the side of his thigh, scratching
it and trying to pull him in closer to me. I felt Ryan pull me in close,
scratching my chest and he thrust in deep and started to quiver. I felt the
warm sensation of his cum starting to fill my ass, pushing me over the
edge. I started to cum as Ryan continued to fill my ass, covering the
wall. Ryan wrapped his arms around my waist and chest and I straightened up
and kissed me. I broke the kiss and turned around and looked at him. "I
really missed you. I missed being in your arms." I said, wiping some water
from his cheek. Before he could say anything else I leaned in and gently
kissed him on the lips.

	"Well I think we should get cleaned up before we waste all the hot
water." Ryan said breaking the kiss, after ten minutes of making out and
groping each other's bodies.

	"Yeah. Agreed." I said giving him one last kiss, before reaching
down to get some soap. I started to lather up his chest and abs, making
sure I ran my fingertips over every inch of it. Then I slid my soapy hands
up and down this thighs and legs, before focusing on his cock. I rubbed my
soapy hands over his balls, playing with each other a little, then over his
cock feeling it grow a bit harder in my hands. I stopped before he grew too
hard and ended up spending even longer in the shower. I turned him over and
started to soap up his back and massaged my way down it slowly. I ran my
soapy fingers over his muscular calves and over his firm ass. I couldn't
help but slip two fingers in his ass and when he looked down at me with a
surprised look, I just told him I wanted to make sure every part of him was
clean.

      He did the same thing to me and then we both rinsed the soap off
under the hot stream of the shower. Once we were all rinsed, he pulled me
back in and made out with me as he shut off the water. We got out and
wrapped towels around our waists. I opened the door and walked out just as
Lydia was rounding the corner.

	"Have fun you two?" She said with a smile.

	"I...we were...there.." I started to stutter.

	"Yes." Ryan said stepping out of the bathroom

	"Took you long enough. You were almost in the shower for an hour."

	"Sorry." Ryan and I both said at once.

      "It's ok, but you two should get to bed. It is late. You can sleep in
the guest bedroom. Goodnight." She said, returning to her room.

      Ryan and I walked into the guest bedroom that she had prepared for
us. We both dried off and then slipped into bed naked. I crawled up to him
and wrapped my arms over his chest and rested my head on his chest. He put
his arm around me and pulled me in.
      After a few moments, Ryan broke the silence, "You know I really do
love you, Chase."

      "I know baby. I missed you so much. It was stupid of me to think that
you would cheat, but it's over now and I'm glad to have you. I missed being
in you arms."

      "I know. I missed holding you so much."

      I heard Ryan say he loved me before drifting off to sleep. The next
morning I was awoken by Ryan turning in his sleep. I looked over at him
sleeping there with his back to me. Leaning forward I kissed his neck and
told him I loved him. Rolling over and pulling me in, he said, "I love you
too." We just laid there for a bit in silence our fingers intertwined.

      Suddenly we heard a knock at the door. We told her to come in and she
said that breakfast was ready and that Ryan and Gabe were downstairs. Ryan
and I got dressed and joined them for breakfast. We talked and Gabe and
Ryan told us how happy they were that we were back together.

      For the rest of the week, Ryan and I visited my friend's and
Jacob. Bright Saturday morning, we were on a plane back home to
California. We landed on schedule and in no time we got our bags and were
on our way home.

      The car ride home was silent. The silence was comforting to where I
felt the warmness of a conversation without wasting the energy. I sat there
thinking about how I was glad he was back in my life and that I was finally
where I was supposed to be. I took Ryan's hand that was on his thigh in my
hand, intertwining our fingers. I brought our hands to my side of the car,
looking at my hand in his then lightly kissed the back of it. Ryan quickly
glanced at me and smiled then looked back at the road. "Man it's beautiful
when that boy smiles," I thought to myself smiling.

      By the time we pulled into the driveway, that silence had been one of
the best conversations we'd ever had. We walked from the car to the door of
apartment in the same silence we had kept, our fingers still
intertwined. Ryan pulled his keys out of his pocket and fidgeted around
with them. I wrapped my arms around his waist and started kissing his neck
as he continued to teasingly struggle with his keys. He finally started to
put the key in the door just as I made my way up his neck to his ear,
nibbling on it a little bit and starting to caress his abs outside of his
shirt. Ryan leaned back, reached behind him, and put his hand on the back
of my head letting out a soft groan that made my heart jump. He finally
opened the door and I released my grip on his waist as he walked into our
apartment. I walked in behind him, shutting the door behind me. I turned
back around and Ryan was staring back at me.

      "I'm really sorry," I managed to say quietly.

      "Aww boo boo for what?" Ryan asked back.

      "For doubting you," I answered.

      "Well it's all over now," he said as he walked toward me.

      He wrapped his arms around me, hugging me as I buried my head into
his shoulder smelling how good he smelled. It felt so good to feel his warm
body against mine as I sunk deeper into his hug, pressing harder into
him. Ryan pulled back from the hug and cupped my face in his hands gently
pressing his lips against mine. He broke the kiss and looked at me,
wrapping his arms around my waist as I draped my arms over his
shoulders. He rested his head against mine. "I love you," I whispered
softly. He just stared into my eyes, a smile starting to stretch across his
face. "I love you more," he whispered back. With that, I grabbed his hand
and pulled him into the bedroom with me. I snaked my hand around the back
of his neck and pulled his face into mine, kissing him slow then more
intensely. Ryan laid down on the bed as I walked around to the other
side. He grabbed my arm and pulled me down onto the bed next to him. I
wrapped my arm around his stomach, resting my head on his chest as he
stroked up and down my back. I laid there next to him for what felt like a
long time, feeling his soft breathing and listening to the beat of his
heart.

      "I need to take a shower," he randomly mentioned breaking the comfort
of the silence that I had gotten accustomed to.

      "No you don't," I shot back as I tightened my grip around his
stomach. He leaned forward and kissed my head.

      "Come on baby. I'll only be a second." I held on tighter before
deciding to let up my death grip on him, attempting to keep him there for
hours. Ryan sat upright and put his feet on the floor, standing up. Before
he even took a step, I reached around his waist and pulled him forcefully
back onto the bed into a sitting position again. I wrapped my arms around
his waist, kissing his neck again as I kneeled behind him. Ryan whirled
around pinning my arms to the bed. "Psh," I managed to let out before his
lips met mine for what felt like forever. No matter how much time we spent
together, his kiss would always take my breath away. He broke the kiss and
looked in my eyes.

      "Now, I am going to take a shower. You stay right here. Ok boo boo?"

      "Fine then I won't join you in the shower," I spit back.

      "Good. Stay," he said playfully as he smiled and released my arms.

      I laid in bed waiting for him to get out of the shower and already
missed him. I grabbed on tightly to a pillow. I figured if he wasn't there,
the pillow would just have to do. Before no time, Ryan was standing in the
doorway in a towel and still dripping. Seeing him completely naked still
overwhelmed me and I couldn't believe it was all mine. It was turning me on
watching him rub down the length of his chest, abs, and legs with the
towel, drying off all the water droplets trickling down his perfect body.

      "I told you it wouldn't take that long," he said matter of factly as
I got up from the bed and walked toward him.

      "Well what I get to see now was worth the wait," I said back sexily
pulling him into me.

      "Sexytime?"

      "If you're good."

      "How do I become that," he asked with a sly smile on his face.

      "Behave yourself," I answered back as I walked him back over to the
bed pushing him down on it.

      "But that's no fun," he added.

      "Oh yes it is," I said chuckling to myself as I straddled him,
reaching into the bedside table. I pulled out two pairs of handcuffs and
snapped them around both wrists, the opposite ends attached to the bed.

      "Getting kinky are we?" he asked, a huge grin forming across his
face.

      I looked down at Ryan, licking my lips as I bent down with my hands
on either side of him. I hovered above him, my lips barely touching his,
our faces only inches apart. He leaned his head forward opening his mouth
in anticipation for me to kiss him. I pulled back a little bit starting to
smile at his attempts. I finally gave in and pressed my lips against his
softly, getting more intense as I started to slide my tongue in his
mouth. I broke the kiss and he leaned forward for more. I kissed the side
of his mouth lightly then moving down to under his chin, feeling my hot
breath on his neck as I kissed down to his smooth chest. I sat up still
straddling him around his waist, his cock under me. I slowly picked up the
end of my shirt and slid it off throwing it off the side of the bed. I take
the very tips of my fingers and put them right at the bottom of Ryan's
hand, gently starting to slide them down over his wrist. I let my fingers
barely graze over the underside of his forearm and down his bicep. Ryan
closed his eyes as he let out a heavy breath. I continued to trace down the
curves of his body with my fingertips. Down over his chest, squeezing his
nipples, then slowly down his abs, tracing the bumps of each one with my
fingers. I unstraddled him laying next to him on my side, using my elbow to
prop me up.  I gently moved my fingertips over his bellybutton slowly
getting closer to his cock, intently watching his face. I moved the very
ends of my fingers over his throbbing cock, barely touching it, causing him
to gasp. A small drop of precum leaked onto one of my fingers and I slowly
brought it to my mouth, sucking it off my finger and watching Ryan intently
watch me. Still looking up at him, I bent down sticking the tip of my
tongue out and barely flicked it over the tip of his cock, causing it to
quiver. Quickly, I readjusted myself so I could get access to his cock,
straddling his legs. Looking down at his beautiful hard cock, I bent down
grazing my lips over the shaft. Randomly, barely sticking my tongue out so
it would only graze certain parts of his shaft. Feeling my breath on his
cock as my lips barely made contact over the whole length of it. I hear
Ryan let out a soft moan as I slide my fingertips up the length of his
sides crawling back up his body, keeping eye contact.

      Once I get to his face, I rest both of my arms at the top of his head
looking deep into his eyes. I lean down my lips barely touching his then
quickly slide my mouth over and kiss him on the cheek. I kiss down the side
of his cheek to his ear pressing my warm bare body against his. I start
nibbling on his ear whispering about how hard I am for him. I keep kissing
and nibbling his ear, lightly playing with his hair and slowly moving my
smooth body over his. I whispered that I wanted to feel him inside of me,
as I pressed my body a little harder against him, grinding my cock into
his.  Ryan let out another moan as the tip of his cock was lightly grazing
over my abs leaving a trail of precum. I got off the bed and stood at the
side of the bed slowly unbuckling my belt. I pulled the belt out of the
loops and dropped it on the floor. I undid the button and zipper on my
pants pulling them open. I hooked my fingers around my jeans and boxer
briefs pulling them down and stepping out of them. I looked Ryan in the
eyes as I wrapped my hand around my hard cock and started to slowly jack
off right next to him. "Oh now come on, that is not fair at all," he added
before pulling on the handcuffs. I just leaned my head back and let out a
soft moan looking back down at my cock and biting my lip. "Well what are
you going to do about it?" I asked smartly before I let out another
moan. Ryan groaned in response as I started to laugh. I got on the bed and
straddled Ryan again feeling his hard cock graze against my ass and lower
back. I reached behind me and slid his cock into my ass softly moaning as
he sucked in and arched his back, his cock pushing further into my ass. I
put my hands on his chest and starting riding his cock, scratching his
chest a little bit. I slammed down so his cock pushed harder into me
hitting my prostate and putting me on the verge of cumming. As I rode his
cock harder and faster, my cock slid along his perfect body jacking it off
and leaving precum on his abs.

      I leaned down and starting biting his shoulders hearing him whisper,
"please let me loose," in between moans. I kissed his neck moaning right by
his ear then saying not yet. I licked up the side of his neck gathering any
sweat that had formed. His cock was sliding in and out of my ass with slow
powerful thrusts slamming into my prostate each time. "Oh fuck," I moaned
as I was getting closer and closer to blowing my load. Ryan let out a
series of light moans with each thrust as I felt his body start to
tighten. I reached up and released his hands from the handcuffs just as he
was about to cum. He let out a loud moan before holding my waist slamming
me onto his cock, it pushing deep into my ass as he arched his back and
pushed his hips up. With that, he started cumming in my ass as I scratched
his chest and started cumming on his abs. After we finished milking our
cocks for everything they were worth, I collapsed on top of him breathing
heavily and still feeling the remains of the orgasm coursing through my
body. I felt Ryan's fingertips running up my sides and over my back as we
laid there for a few minutes catching our breath. I sat up then leaned down
to lick up some of the cum I sprayed all over his abs. Then I pressed my
lips against his, kissing him passionately and sharing my cum with him as
our tongues whirled around in each other's mouths.

      I rolled off of Ryan and laid on my stomach next to him. I ran my
hand back and forth over his abs then wrapped my arm around him pulling him
in tightly and resting my head on his chest again. I felt him running his
fingertips over my shoulders which sent shock waves through my whole body
giving me goosebumps. I relaxed to the steady flow of his breathing and the
consistent sound of his heart beating. I rested one hand on his stomach as
he brought his hand down and intertwined his fingers with mine. He gently
kept caressing my shoulders and my back as I leaned back a little bit so I
could tilt my head and see him. I told him I loved him and he said it back
then lightly kissed me. I laid back down on his chest moving right next to
him feeling his warm body on mine snuggling my face into the nape of his
neck still smelling what remained of the soap from his shower. I lightly
kissed his neck then we fell asleep, finally back to how we were supposed
to be.
