Lucas has just gotten home from the clinic. It was a long day. He had seen one animal after another, with little to no down time at all. Lucas loves his job as a veterinarian, but he was relieved that it was Friday.
He tosses his keys on top of his kitchen counter and saunters over to his fridge, reaching in grabbing a beer. The sound of it popping open is sweet music to his ears. He takes a long swig followed by a satisfying sigh, but that quietly turns into a groan when a loud knock intrudes his apartment. Lucas just wanted to enjoy a quiet night in alone, with his beer, his couch, and remote.
He moves swiftly across his apartment, taking a drink of his beer, and when he opens his door he is greeted with his overly eager best friend.
"Lucas!" Zay exclaims. He pushes his way inside patting Lucas' back on his way in. Lucas watches Zay walk over to his kitchen and mimicking his actions from earlier. "Why aren't you dressed?" Zay questions as soon as the glass bottle is away from his lips. A look of confusion spills across Lucas' face. "Didn't you get my message?"
Lucas shakes his head as he reaches into his pocket. "Today was so busy, I didn't have any time to check my phone." Lucas scrolls through his messages.
Zay
Tonight we are going out. Guys night!
Lucas lets out a little snicker after reading it. He turns his attention to Zay, "It's never guys' night. You drag me to a club and leave me while you work your 'magic'," Lucas uses air quotes, "on some poor lady." Lucas chuckles.
Zay rolls his eyes, "It's not my fault you choose to sit there and not do anything." Zay takes a drink of his beer. "I mean the ladies swarm to you, and you don't blink an eye."
Lucas shakes his head. "Yeah, but they are only looking for some fun for the night. I'm twenty-five. I'm looking for something further than a one-night stand."
Zay groans. "Okay, how about a compromise?" Lucas nods for him to continue. "We go to a bar. It's not as chaotic, and maybe you'll be more willing to talk to someone. 'Cause Luke," he laughs, "in order to get a girlfriend, you have to meet a woman, and you never go out unless I drag you out. You can't exactly date one of your patient." Zay jokes.
Lucas sarcastically laughs at Zay's attempt to joke. "Do I really have a choice?" Zay smiles while shaking his head. "Give me twenty minutes to shower and change." Lucas slams the rest of his beer before going to his room to get ready.
When they get to the bar, Lucas follows Zay to the bar top to take a seat. Lucas immediately recognizes the difference between this bar and the many clubs he and Zay have been to. One it's not quite as big, but it isn't compact. There is music playing; loud enough for people to still dance, but not loud enough to overshadow their voices.
A woman with honey colored skin and auburn curly hair approach them from behind the counter. "So, what can I get for you two handsome guys?" She smiles coyly at them. Lucas returns the smile politely and orders a beer.
"I'll have the same as him…and your phone number," Zay smirks at her.
She chuckles lightly. "I'll get those drinks for you." She shifts over to the beer dispensers and fills two glasses and then places them in front of Lucas and Zay. Zay watches as she walks away to the other end to help someone else.
"I'm gonna get her number by the end of the night," Zay says confidently.
They hear faint laugher from the end of the bar, and look over to see the bartender laughing with a group of guys. "Looks like you have competition buddy," Lucas teases before taking a gulp of his cold beer.
Lucas and Zay talk amongst themselves about their week; Lucas at the clinic, and Zay as a sous-chef at a popular restaurant. Zay rolls his eyes at Lucas and gives him a hard time every time a woman comes to hit on Lucas, and he turns them away, while Lucas laughs at Zay's failed attempts to get the bartender's number. The two take a few shots, chasing it down with beer, and Lucas is finally feeling the stress of the week melt away.
"Can we get another round over here?" Lucas signals to the bartender, and she nods at them.
"Whoa, you don't want to slow down there?" Zay crackles.
Lucas shakes his head. "I don't have work tomorrow, and I think this has been the hardest week I've experience as a vet…it needs to be forgotten." The bartender places two shots of whisky in front of the guys, making it their fourth of the night. "Thank you," Lucas flashes her a smile, and she happily returns it before returning to making drinks.
"You're a lot less tense when you drink…but dude I saw her first, guy code," Zay proclaims, and Lucas smirks at his friend.
Lucas holds up his shot glass, and Zay follows suit. "To the weekend." They clink their glasses before throwing the shot down their throats and taking a swig of their beers. "I'll be right back." Lucas stands up and makes his way to the bathroom.
When he walks back from the bathrooms, Lucas' eyes lock onto a pair chocolate orbs. The brown-eyed girl softly smiles at Lucas, and he instantly returns it. He gets back to Zay, and Zay notices a change in Lucas demeanor. "What has you smiling?" Zay inquires.
"Look behind me," Lucas says after taking his seat in the stool. Zay looks over his shoulder scanning the room, not really sure who or what he is supposed to be looking for.
Zay notices a brunette and a blonde giggling to one another, and the brunette staring at Lucas, and he puts two and two together. "Who is that?"
Lucas takes a swig of his beer, "I don't know, but she…she's wow." Zay laughs at the daze this mystery lady put Lucas in.
Lucas not so subtlety sends glances her way, but Zay notices. "Go talk to her," Zay nudges him. Lucas stares at his drink in front of him and shakes his head. Zay nudges him harder.
"Dude, I'm not going to go talk to her," Lucas says.
"Well, that's a shame," a voice that doesn't belong to Zay says with a slight giggle. Lucas looks in the direction of the voice, and his eyes grow. There stands a beautiful brunette with big brown eyes. She has blue skinny jeans on that hug her in all the right places with a loose white v neck that shows just enough cleavage, and a pair of booties that are giving her an extra inch or two.
Lucas eyes scan her body taking in every inch of her. He hears a soft laugh come from her, and he pulls his eyes away from her body and to her eyes. Zay looks between the two of them and sees he isn't needed here. He looks pass the still nameless woman, and to the friend she left behind, and a grin washes over his face. "If you'll excuse me, I'm going to go keep your friend over there company," Zay says before walking over to the blonde.
Lucas gesture for the brown-eyed beauty to sit in the seat that was occupied by Zay, and she oblige. Lucas clears his throat, "I'm Lucas." He holds out his hand, and she takes it in hers.
She smiles, "I'm Riley." She laughs quietly to herself and Lucas furrows his eyebrows. "I'm sorry it isn't you," another stiff laughter. "I just…I never do this. My best friend over there," she looks in the direction of her friend and Zay, "she dragged me out. So, this," she waves her hands between her and Lucas, "is new to me."
Lucas nods in understanding. He was always dragged out by his best friend. "So, what made me the lucky one that you approached?"
"Honestly?" Lucas nods. "My friend, Maya, over there pushed me to, but I'll admit you're pleasing to the eye, so it didn't take much convincing," they both laugh.
"So, Riley can I get you anything to drink?" She nods her head. Lucas signals the bartender over, and Riley orders a gin and tonic.
The pair sit together flirting and sipping on their drinks, both drinking more than they usually do. Lucas finds himself gazing over her body, and Riley does the same to him. She notices his blue t-shirt sleeves wrapped tightly around his muscles and his lust filled eyes, and Lucas notices the same look in her eyes; both feeling an intense attraction.
The song changes, and Riley starts to slowly dance in her seat. Lucas sees and takes it as his chance to pushed against her body. "Do you want to dance?" He smiles coyly at her. She doesn't say a word as she steps down from the high-top stools and walks to the crowd of people dancing. Lucas watching the way her hips move with each step. She does a spin and locks eyes with Lucas, and she uses a single finger to call him over.
Lucas strides to her, not once breaking eye contact. They start dancing closer and closer to one another, and Lucas feeling a little daring, grabs her arms and runs them over his head, wrapping her arms around his neck. He then slides his hands to her waist pulling her close to him; both moving in sync with the other for a few songs.
Being so close to her, Lucas can smell her sweet scented perfume. Their bodies push and pull towards the other, both burning with desire. Lucas leans in and Riley does the same, their lips barely brushing against another; sexual tension building more.
"Do you want to get out of here?" Riley ask timidly.
"Are…are you sure?" Lucas asks with a stutter. Riley grins before closing the gap between their lips with a kiss that's lingering. She pulls away and all Lucas can think is wow. A grin spreads across his face that mirrors the one on Riley's. She grabs his hands and leads him to the door, walking pass their friends giving them a small wave.
The two stumble into Lucas' apartment, intertwined in each other's arms lips lock. Lucas leads them blindly through his apartment in the dark.
Riley pulls at the hem and Lucas' shirt pulling it off his well sculpted body. Lucas lets out a small laugh when he notices Riley's gawking over his half naked body. He pulls her closer to him and starts to slowly kiss her neck and soft moans escape from Riley's lips, driving Lucas wild.
He slowly slides his hands down Riley's body to the hem of her white shirt. He starts to lift it, but notices the nerves radiating off Riley. "We can stop," Lucas says, although that's the last thing he wanted to do, but he didn't want to force her into anything.
Riley shakes her head, "I'm just nervous," she whispers. She snakes her arm around his neck and pulls his face to hers, kissing him with hunger. He leads her to the bed, their lips still one, as he lays her down. Riley drops her arms to the hem of her shirt, breaking the kiss as she pulls it over her head. Lucas goggles her body. He knew she had to have a perfect body underneath her clothes, but seeing it was another thing.
"Wow," the word fights its way through Lucas' lips. Riley giggles and pulls Lucas down to her. She slowly inches herself back to the head of the bed with Lucas hovering over her. "You can still run if you want to," Lucas mumbles through their kiss.
Riley reaches behind her back unclasping her bra and sliding it off. "Does it look like I'm going anywhere?" she says seductively. Lucas smirks at her and pushes his lips to her with desire.
The next morning Lucas wakes up still smiling from last night. The two had spent the night rolling around in his bed sheets. He reaches over to find an empty spot; he thought Riley had spent the night. He hears creaking in his floorboard and looks up to see Riley tip toeing around his bedroom half naked, and he finds himself scanning her body again.
"Good morning," his voice is groggy. She jumps slightly making Lucas chuckle.
"Good morning. I didn't mean to wake you." Riley still moves around gather her things.
"You know, you don't have to sneak away," Lucas laughs as he sits up. Riley slides her pants up before turning to face Lucas. "We can go out to breakfast get to know each other."
She shakes her head. "You don't have to pretend. I know what this was; it was a one night stand. We don't see each other after this, but," she chuckles, "I had fun."
Lucas uses his knuckles to push himself off the bed, picking up his blue t-shirt off the floor and pulling it on. "I had fun too, and I'd really like to see you again." Riley tilts her head. "I'm serious."
Riley opens her mouth to say something, but her phone pings. She moves across Lucas' bedroom to her phone. "I have to go," Riley says.
Lucas follows her to his front door and grabs her wrist gently just as she reaches for the door handle. "Can I have you number? I mean it I really do want to see you again," Lucas says sincerely.
Riley slowly exhales. "How about I give you my phone and you can put your number in?" Lucas nods, and she hands her phone over.
Lucas inputs his numbers and gives it back. His eyes lock onto hers, "Will I be hearing from you?" Lucas asks.
Riley smirks, "Well, we'll just have to see about that won't we. I really do need to get going though." Lucas nods, and Riley turns on her heels to walk out. Lucas watches her the way her hips sway as she walks away.
The minute he seen her in the bar, he felt a pull to her and after last night he fell in love with her body. He's hoping, no praying, that he'll hear from her, so he can get to know her better.
Riley slowly walks inside her apartment that she shares with her best friend. She tries to be as quiet as possible closing the door, but she wasn't quiet enough. Her blonde best friend peaks her head out from around the corner.
"I see someone is doing the walk of shame," Maya teases Riley. "Is that for me?" she gestures to the extra cup of coffee in Riley's hands, and she nods. Maya skips across the room, taking the hot drink from Riley and takes a seat on the couch. "Thank you," she says after letting out a satisfying sigh. "So, Riles tell me about last night." She pats the empty spot next to her. "You left without saying a word."
Riley laughs softly taking the seat. "I waved." She takes a sip of her coffee. "I don't know what I was thinking."
"You weren't." Maya laughs. "I told you to let loose, go talk to him, not go home with him. But then I saw you two dancing and whoa! It was steamy. What got into you?" She nudges Riley.
"A few drinks too many." Riley traces the lid of her coffee. "But, it was…wow. He was wow." Riley blushes slightly at the thought of last night.
Maya smirks. "Are you going to see him again?"
Riley shrugs. "I don't know. He gave me his number, but I don't know if I'm going to call him. I just, I wanted to get out of there as fast as I could. It's not that I wanted to, but," she takes a small sip, "I woke up this morning and all the courage I had last night was gone."
Maya chuckles and takes a drink of her coffee. "You're sober now."
"Anyways, he woke up when I tried to leave and asked if I wanted to go to breakfast, but I said I had to go."
"Give it a day or two, and if you want to call him text him, do it." Maya tells her.
Riley yawns. "I'm going to go shower and maybe get a little more sleep, I'm still tired."
"Yeah, I bet you are." Maya chuckles, and Riley rolls her eyes walking in the directions of her bedroom.
After Riley left, Lucas takes a shower and quickly gets dress. He moves to his bed, fixing his bed. As he moves his sheets around, he recognizes her sweet perfume from last night and a smile captures his lips thinking about last night.
He gets pulled out of reality when his phone starts ringing. He grabs it seeing Zay's name across the screen.
Hey Zay. Lucas says.
You're up! I thought you'd be worn out from last night. Lucas hears Zay chuckling and Lucas rolls his eyes. Well, I'm down the street so open your door.
Alright. I'll see you in a minute. Lucas hangs up his phone. He hurryingly finishes picking up his room before going to open his front door.
"So, last night? How was it?" Zay questions as soon as he walks in.
"Well, good morning to you too." Lucas closes the door behind Zay.
"Good morning, but seriously how did it go? Is she still here?" Zay looks in the direction of Lucas' room. "'Cause I can totally get out of here."
Lucas shakes his head. "No, she left about an hour ago."
"So, she actually spent the night here?" Lucas nods. "Well, how did it go?"
Lucas slumps down on his couch, "Amazing," he sighs. Zay plops himself next to Lucas. "I mean I just met her, but after last night I want to know whatever I can about her. It sounds cliché, but it was an instant connection. At least that's what I felt."
Zay pats his back, "Did you at least get her number?"
Lucas shakes his head. "I tried asking, but she wouldn't. I gave her mine, I'm just hoping she calls." Lucas clears his throat, "Anyways, what about you and her friend?"
"Oh, Maya. Nothing happened. We talked. She was more concern with her friend, Riley, going home with you. I kept telling her that you were the best guy I knew, but I wasn't sure if that calmed her or made her panic a little." Zay laughs. "But, how about I make us some breakfast since I think that's the real reason you keep me around."
"How did you find out buddy," Lucas jokes. Zay stands up and moves to the kitchen. Lucas thoughts go to the beautiful brunette. Last night he fell in love with her body, but now he wants her to give him a chance to fall in love with her.
The rest of Saturday passes, and Lucas was disappointed that he hadn't heard from Riley. It's not that she didn't want to get into contact with him, but she was nervous herself. When Sunday evening came, Riley and Maya had enjoyed a quiet evening in.
Riley had cleared their living room, so she had room to choreograph a dance routine for her dance class. The music vibrated against the walls of their living room, and Riley took in each beat.
"You sure have flourished into a butterfly," Maya says as soon as Riley turned the music down. Riley laughs. "Seriously, Riles, you aren't that clumsy teenager you once were. I mean you are running a dance studio, and teach I don't know how many dance classes a day." Riley moves around the living room putting everything back in its place, and trips over her own feet but regains her balance before she can hit the floor making Maya laugh. "Okay, maybe you are still a little clumsy…do you want a glass?" Maya asks holding up her glass of wine.
"Yeah, I'll go get a glass." Riley walks to their kitchen, grabs a wine glass, and returns to the living room. She holds out her glass, and Maya fills Riley's glass. "Thank you." Riley takes a seat on the couch next to Maya, tucking her leg underneath herself.
The two best friends sit, sipping their wine, talking about Riley's dance competition coming up and Maya's art show the same night. Riley was a little relief to be talking about anything besides Friday night. Maya had been pushing Riley to text Lucas, but for some reason Riley was reluctant.
Riley had thought tonight was going to be different, but it wasn't. It didn't take Maya that long to start pestering Riley. "So, are you going to text him?"
Riley rolls her eyes. "I don't know. He probably hasn't even noticed. I'm pretty sure he only gave me his number because he woke up."
Maya shakes her head. "Didn't you say that he asked for yours?" Riley nods. "Well, I'm pretty sure that means he wanted to see you again, plus he said it himself." Riley shrugs still not saying anything. "Okay, honey, what's the real reason you aren't texting this handsome man back?"
Riley sighs as she swirls her glass around. "The sex was amazing, and his body…whoa." She clears her throat, "But, what if that's all it is? Let's say I text him, we make plans for a date and it doesn't go great. It's the complete opposite of the night we spent together."
"So, your worried that it's just a pure physical connection?" Riley nods again, but this time take a sip of her wine. "Well, something attracted him to you at the bar. I told you to talk to pick someone and go talk to them, you picked him. I'd say go for it. If there is chemistry other than the bedroom, then good. If there isn't, then you know." Maya drinks the rest of the wine in her glass. "But, don't over think it. You tend to overanalyze everything and go into Rileytown. Have a little fun." She pushes herself off the couch. She holds out her hand to take Riley's glass and picks up the now empty wine bottle from the coffee table and moves to the kitchen.
Riley waits until Maya is out of sight and hears the faucet on. She reaches for her phone and scrolls through until she sees his name. "I'm going to go bed Riles," Maya shouts from the kitchen.
"Okay, goodnight," Riley shouts back, not looking away from her phone. She holds her thumb above his name and takes a deep breath. "Just have a little fun," she whispers to herself. Her thumbs start tapping around on her screen, typing a message.
Riley
Hey Lucas, it's Riley. I was wondering if maybe on Friday you wanted to go out.
Riley reads the text over and over before slowly exhaling and hitting send. She looks at the time in the top right corner of her phone; 11:01, maybe she should have waited until the morning.
She saunters to her bedroom and just as she's about to open her door, her phone gets an alert with a notification.
Lucas
Of course, I do. Just tell me the place and I'll be there.
Riley smiles at his response. She pushes her door open with her eyes locked on her phone. She kicks off her pants, and changes into an oversize t-shirt before crawling into bed.
The two makes plans for Friday night, both smiling foolishly at their phones, but the conversation didn't end there. Lucas had waited for Riley to text him, and he wasn't ready to say goodnight and Riley didn't mind.
Lucas and Riley have exchange a few text messages during the rest of the week. It has been a busy week for the both of them, so come the end of each day they were both exhausted. Riley knows Lucas is a veterinarian, and Lucas knows Riley is a dance teacher. They both try not to spill too much, wanting to leave something to talk about for their date, but enjoying the little things their share.
Come Friday, Lucas meets Riley at a bakery call Topanga's. He walks down the stairs, but when he gets the front door he notices the lights off inside. He peers through the window and doesn't see anyone inside. He wonders he has the right place. He pulls at his phone and pushes in her number. It rings twice before he hears her voice peeking through.
Hello. Riley answers with a smile. Are you here?
I think so. Lucas says unsure. I'm not really sure. It's dark inside. Riley laughs. She walks out from the back room, and Lucas sees the silhouette of her body in the dark. He watches her hang up her phone and put it onto of the counter, and he shoves his in his pocket.
Lucas watches as Riley walks over to him, almost like the night that the met; he does the same thing he did that night, he studies her body. She pulls open the door. "Hey," Lucas says with a nervous smile spread across his lips. He notices the way her clothes hug her body. He feels more nervous than he remember last time he saw her, but that's because this time he was completely sober.
She smiles. "Hi. Come in," Riley steps to the side letting enough space for Lucas to wake in. Once he is inside, Riley locks the door behind him and turns on the lights.
"So, is this where we are having our date?" Lucas questions.
Riley nods her head. She walks behind the counter, and he takes a seat in one of the stools at the counter top. She turns to look at him. "Why is it a problem?"
Lucas shakes his head. "No, not at all. I'm just wondering how we are in a bakery after it's closed."
Riley chuckles. "My mom owns it, and I thought we'd be able to take advantage of the free goods," Riley jokes making Lucas laugh.
"A thrifty girl, I like it." Lucas says, and a faint blush run up Riley's cheeks. She tries to hide it by turning back around. Riley moves around from behind the counter, grabbing one thing after another and placing it on a plate in front of Lucas. He then watches her cut up fruit and place it in the blender, and soon an uproar fills the room.
When it stops, Lucas clears his throat. "So, what made you text me? You never told me." Riley pours the strawberry and banana smoothie in two separate glasses, and walks back over to Lucas placing one in front him and walking around and taking a seat next to Lucas.
"Well, my friend Maya once again gave me a little push I guess I needed."
"I guess I have to thank this friend of yours," Lucas laughs. "So, how was your day?"
She unwraps a straw from the wrapper and sticks it in her smoothie. "It was good. I had a few classes in the afternoon, and then my mom needed me here to close up."
Lucas nods, "How do you like being a dance teacher?"
Lucas notices her eyes shine and the smile that plays on her lips. "It's amazing. Especially when one of my girls finally lands a move, the happiness that shows on her face makes everything worth wild." She says as she stirs her smoothie with her straw. "And what about you? How do you like being a veterinarian?"
He smirks. "It's everything I ever wanted. I wanted to be one for as long as I can remember." He sighs, "The days can be long, but I love what I do. Sometimes there are hard days, especially when a family comes in with their family pet and it needs to be put down. Those don't make for the best days, but when I can save an animal it reminds me why I do what I do."
The two spend hours talking about everything good and bad, mostly Lucas listening to Riley talk. He wants to know everything he can about her. He listens to her talk about her most recent dance competition, and once again he notices the spark in her eyes as she talks about her job.
He listens to her talk about her parents, but more specifically her younger brother and how he just got accepted into NYU. Lucas sees how proud Riley speaks of her brother, and he can only imagine just how close they are.
When it Lucas' turn, he tells her about his older brother and how their relationship is a teeter tot. Some days they were good, and sometimes they went days without talking. He tells her about his parents; his mom is an elementary school teacher, and his dad is a businessman. He tells her about his family's ranch in Texas, and his grandfather who is his role model.
Lucas and Riley go into the little details telling each other they favorite colors, favorite song, favorite movie, favorite show, even telling the other their fears they had as a child. Lucas finds it surprising just how easy is it to open up to Riley, and she thinks the same thing about him. They had lost track of the time, and soon their date was coming to an end.
Lucas and Riley walk out, and Lucas waits for her to lock up the bakery. The two walk up the stairs and their hands brush against each other, both feeling the obvious sexual tension that they've been trying to ignore all night. "I had a really nice time." Riley grins showing her dimples.
"So, did I. I really hope we can do this again," Lucas shows his pearly whites.
Riley clears her throat, "Well, it's only ten. We don't have to say goodbye just yet." Lucas tilts his head waiting for her to continue. Lucas watch her fumble with the hem of her shirt, and he wants nothing more than to pull her closer to him. "We…we can go back to your place…or mine, but fair warning I do live with my best friend."
"Well, it's a good thing I live alone." Lucas coyly says. He hails a cab down and holds the door open for Riley to get in first. He gives the cab the address to his apartment, which is about a fifteen minute drive.
The two sit close; their thighs pressed against one another. Lucas gazes over her body, and it doesn't go unnoticed by Riley. She can feel a burning desire spreading through her, the same one from last Friday night.
Lucas watches as a lock of hair falls in front of Riley's face, but before she can tuck it behind her ear, Lucas beats her to it. His touch her skin sends a bolt of energy through the both of them. She leans into his touch, and his eyes lock onto hers. It takes a second for Lucas to capture her lips with his. The kiss is filled with desire, and they forget where they are at. It isn't until they hear the driver clear his throat do Lucas and Riley snap back to reality.
They pull apart, breathing heavy. Lucas pulls out his wallet paying what they owe and a tip for any uncomfortableness the driver must have felt. Lucas slides out of the cab and holds out his hand for Riley, which she freely takes.
Lucas watches the cab drive away before taking a step towards his front door, pulling Riley behind him who's hand he hadn't let go of. However, she doesn't budge. "Hey what's wrong?" Lucas asks concern.
Riley slowly sighs. "Maybe this isn't a good idea." A confused expression washes over Lucas' face, and she notices. Riley was the one who suggested they go to his or her place, but he wasn't going to force her into doing anything she no longer wanted to do. "It's not that I don't want, believe me I do," she bites her lip. "But, if I go in there I'm scared we'll have sex, not that it wasn't amazing the first time, but if this is going to go anywhere, we should maybe lay off the physical stuff. I know it makes no sense considering the first night we met, we slept together. I just, I like you, and-"
Lucas cuts her off. "Hey, we don't have to do anything you don't want to," he grabs her other hand. "I like you, too, Riley. If you decide to come in, we can just watch a movie…talk. But, if you want to go home, that's fine too. I'm not going to force you into anything or try to convince you."
She scans his green eyes, and he instantly makes her feel comfortable. Riley slowly exhales, with a smile forming on her lips. "Can we make out a little?" Lucas grins and slowly moves his hands to her waist pulling her body against his. He can't help but notice how perfect they fit together. Lucas was in love with Riley's body. He presses his lips against hers, and he can feel her smiling through the kiss.
He breaks the kiss. "We can do whatever you want," he says through his shallow breaths. Riley nods and takes a step towards the apartment with Lucas right behind her.
He hadn't known her for long, but he was dying to know every like thing about her. Whether it be little moles that she had hidden on her body that he couldn't wait to find, or her deepest secret. He wanted to learn something new about her every day.
