"And Jeremy interrupted y'all?" Ace laughed as he gripped onto his stomach and threw his head back. Causing his laughter to echo.
Ass.
Rolling my eyes, I punched his firm arms as he attempted to collect himself.
"I'm sorry but that's shitty luck." Placing his hand on my shoulder, he shook me slightly.
"You'll have more chances." He assured.
Slowly walking up through the doors, Ace and I found ourselves staring down a tall tanned beauty.
From the back you could tell she was nice in shape, but had beautiful curves. Her long black hair fell past her shoulders in perfect ringlets. Her talk legs were perfect platforms for her round butt, I knew without even looking at Ace that we were thinking the same thing. Turning around we both me her milk chocolate eyes.
"Hello. I'm Riley Dixon, you can call me Riley if you'd like." Riley smiled a perfect white toothy smile. Her milk chocolate eyes looked me over longer then I'd like, making me uncomfortable in my own skin.
"What position you'd get?" Ace blurted out curiously.
"I'm a physical trainer." Riley stated happily. Her voice was filled with far too much enthusiasm for so early in the morning.
Holding out her hand she shook mine and then Ace's.
"I'm Ace, this is Jessie." Ace's head of curly dirty blonde locks tilted towards me.
"I'm a physical trainer as well, Jessie here just signs people with gym memberships." Shaking his fingers through the locks of my hair, Riley attention turned to me.
"So you just supply me with a job?" Her eyebrow raised as she glared me intensely.
Immediately becoming uncomfortable, I just nodded my head.
"You don't say much?" Her stained lips curved into a small smile. I felt pressure under her glare once again. I don't know what it was but her stare made me feel uneasy.

Shaking my head, I tossed my bag over my shoulder and I walked away from them. I never felt her eyes leave me until I finally closed the door behind me.
Finally feeling relief, I sighed in satisfaction.
This was gonna be a long day.

My shift came to an end quicker then expected and I found myself finishing off my work out with a cool-down of 5 crunches.
"So what was earlier about?" Ace's short stature found a place to sit next to me.
"What are you talking about?" I hoped he was talking about something else, I felt like if we mentioned Riley she'd somehow sense she was being talked about and would stare me down again.
"With Riley." He shook his locks from his eyes.
"You completely shut down once you met her. What's up with that?"
Standing up I checked to make sure she was no where in ear shot so she wouldn't overhear my confession.
"She just makes me uncomfortable." Shrugging my shoulders as if it was the subject I desperately wanted to shrug off.
"Awe, does Jessie have a crush?"
"Hell no! Shut up Ace!"
"It's ok Jessie! You just live with your girlfriend who desperately loves you!"
His teasing made me cringe. I don't know what it was, but something bout how he said it made me feeling guilty.
I don't like her! I just met her! She just makes me uncomfortable! That's all!!
Walking out the door I quickly found my truck. I desperately wanted to get away from Ace.
"Jessie chill! I'm only kidding!"
Throwing my bag in the bed of my truck I shook my head.
"I just need to get home to Taylor."
Hoping into my truck that I quickly cranked and then left the parking lot.
Taylor. I just need Taylor. She's all I need. I love her. I just need to see her right now.

The Blood Order
"Are you coming to bed firefly?" He says to me laying his hands over my waist joining me in looking over the city. "I want to look out for a little longer if that is alright?" I mumble hoping that he heard me anyways, I wasn't ready to walk into that bedroom, and I don't think I ever would be. "Of course, I'll be getting ready for bed, come in whenever you are ready." He says confidently and walks away leaving my waist cold something for which I am grateful. Especially when my mind burns with other more dangerous thoughts. The warmth that forever lingers in the air, never burning the skin, but always reminding about what is around us. I force air into my lungs feeling the unexpected warmth fill me. He stands in the room watching me even though he said he was getting ready for bed. He is worried about me, about me jumping.

His presence is demanding no matter where we are, but right now I could sense everything about him, and I try to suppress the unwanted feelings that curl right under my skin."Firefly? About done?" He calls out and I release my hand from the guard rail not realizing that as I looked at the lights that covered the shining city with the falling fire in the background that my subconscious was thinking about how nice it would be... how relieving it would be... to just fall. True freedom. I take a step back and wrap my hands together turning around to a fully clothed unchanged man and nod once. I could see the fear in his eyes that I would, he knows if he gave me the chance...I wasn't ready for this, but I had to survive. No matter what.Highest Ranks: #17 In Romance #5 in Soulmates
