All Chapters of Silently Falling: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

God damn me to hell and back.I just woke up and every stupid thing I had done last night rushed to my memory as I sat up on my bed."Oh my God! Oh my God! What have I done?" I can't believe I was reciting Disney animation lines to Ryker, I even sang on the street. On the fucking street!!!God! How many times do I have to embarrass myself in front of him?I glanced at the side of the room and saw that Sam was still sleeping and what's worse, she still had that tight tube top on.Then I recalled the kiss she had with that guy yesterday. Sam was really wild and crazy, for her to allow the guy to put his hand inside her top, in front of everyone. That was so freaking crazy!Well, she wanted to get railed so badly so I guess she enjoyed it. I wondered if anything happened between them after Ryker and I left yesterday.I got down from the bed and walked towards the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth.One thing I like about myself is that I never get a hangover. No matter the quant

23Ryker placed his hands on my shoulders, setting my skin on fire, different feelings settled in my stomach and I tried so hard not to blush in front of his friends.I looked up and saw that Cassie was glaring at me, Ryker noticed too but he didn't care about it. He greeted the guys and turned to look at the girls. "Ryker, it's been a while." Laurel said with a smile on her face. I liked her lilac acrylic nails, they were pretty. I loved acrylic nails but whenever I used them, no matter how long I tried to keep them, I always discard them the second day. Back in high school, I was so excited when I used them for prom, but then, to wear my clothes was a struggle, I couldn't wear my earrings, brush my teeth, cream my body or even comb my hair. My mom had to help me with everything back then. As soon as prom was over, I yanked them off and I've haven't thought of using them since then."Yeah, it has. I didn't expect to see you guys here." Ryker said, casting a side glance at Brandon wh

I breathe in deeply as my eyes slowly peeled open. Sunlight filtered into the room through the gap in the curtain. I blinked for a moment before realizing that I wasn't alone. My heart picked up speed as my eyes fell on Ryker's face. I thought he had left after I had fallen asleep.He looked more peaceful than I'd ever seen him. His chest moved rhythmically up and down as he breathed. His hot air fanned my face, sending chills down my spine. His left hand was wrapped around my waist while his right arm was still under my head. His arm must have gotten numb from the weight of my head on it for so long, the thought of it made my heart ache.I tried to get up by slightly pushing his hand away from my waist, to avoid waking him, but his hand only wrapped around me more tightly and he pulled me closer to him, placing my head directly under the crook of his neck."Stop it, Bruno." He murmured in his sleep. I swallowed as I watched as his Adam's apple bobbed.Who was Bruno?"Ryker?" I called

"So, how is it going with you and Lucy?" I asked Dylan as I stuffed my mouth with the pizza we bought at the hospital cafeteria.A smile appeared on Dylan's face as he rested his arms on the table that was between us."Well, I asked her out on a date this coming Saturday and she agreed. I hope it goes well.""Hmm, I hope it goes well too. I'm so glad you've finally moved on from Rebecca." I told him with a smile. Rebecca was his ex-girlfriend and she broke up with him after highschool because she couldn't deal with long distance relationships. We all knew that was a lie, she was just hungry for college boys and she probably thought that Dylan's level was too low for her."What about you?" He asked with a smirk.I knew what he was asking but I decided to play dumb, "what about me?" I asked and I took a sip from my pineapple juice."You know what I am talking about. Your guy, Ryker." He said as he rested his back on the chair and folded his arms across his chest."He is not my guy-""Ye

Dylan came to meet me at the library and he took me to the ice cream shop near my hostel. A friendly chime welcomed us as we made our way inside. A few people from school dotted the area. A girl greeted us and we moved closer to her to place our order."One scoop of chocolate and one scoop of peanut butter ice cream for her and one scoop of blueberry cheesecake and another of berry blast ice cream for me." Dylan ordered for the both of us as he placed his hand over my shoulder.The girl grabbed a bowl and scoop, she plopped a big scoop of blueberry cheesecake ice cream into the bowl before scooping the berry blast."Thank you," I muttered to Dylan."Anything for you, cry baby." He said with a smile.I gave him a playful glare as the girl placed our order in front of us. We took them, paid and walked back to the car."So, tell me what happened?" Dylan asked as he dug into his ice cream."I met Ryker." I told him as I ate a spoonful of ice cream."And?""I told him to leave me alone be
