He pulled away shortly afterwards, looking into her eyes. "That was..." he began, laughing softly afterwards. Amazing.

Riley tried her hardest to breathe normally and not blush but failed. Miserably. She pressed her face into his neck.
"I like you," he said quietly, stroking her hair. "A lot."
Riley bit her lip. "I like you too, Ryan."
He grinned happily. "I'm glad you do," he held her closer.
((What if they fall asleep together and her brother finds them like that in the morning?))
((Yeah sure! Should he get really mad? xD))
((I think that'd be okay. I mean, Ryan is to fast for him.))
((Yup!))After talking for a while, Ryan fell asleep with her in his arms.
Riley cuddled up to him, listening to his breathing. After being around her so long, he'd seemed to gotten into the habit of breathing, though he didn't need to.
Nick walked into the living room. "Hey you gu-" he began, and then yelped when he saw Ryan holding Riley in his arms. "What are you doing?!"Ryan jerked awake and rubbed his eyes.
Riley sits up and tries to explain but can't figure out what to say without Nick trying to rip Ryan apart. Riley ran a hand through her tangled hair and looked away.
"Uh.." Ryan began awkwardly.Nick glared at the both of them. "Riley, come here."
Riley bit her lip and edged off the bed/couch (whatever). "Why?" she asked softly, not moving any father than a few inches.
"I just woke up and I-I catch you two, sleeping here, together?!" He shouted. "You took advantage of her!" he shouted at Ryan."I love her," he shouted back. "And we didn't even do anything besides sleeping."
Riley backed up at Nick's tone. He had never yelled at her before. Never, and it scared her. Through her fear, she barely registered that Ryan said he loved her.
He clenched his hands to fists and then stormed out, tired of this betrayal."Maybe you should go after him," Ryan suggested quietly.
Riley nodded and followed her brother. "Nick." she said timidly as she approached him. "It's not what it seemed. Nothing happened." Riley laid a hand on his arm.
Nick tensed as she put her hand on his arm. "You could be lying," he stated.
Riley drew her hand back, curling her fingers into her palm. "I'm not, Nick. Why would I lie to you about that?" she asked softly, tears threatening.
"I don't know," he shook his head and turned to her. "But there are some things going on between you two, and you haven't come clean about it."
Riley bit her lip. "I like him, Nick. A lot. That's it. I don't want you to not trust me. I don't think I can make it if you don't." her voice broke as she spoke. The thought of losing her brother hurt.
He cursed under his breath as he saw her tears, and pulled her close. "Ah, Riley. Don't cry."
Riley circled her arms around his waist and pressed her face into his chest. "I love you, Nick." she said. "You're my favorite brother."
"You only have one brother," he rolled his eyes, but nevertheless wrapped his arms around her. "But I love you too, Riley."
Riley smiled and hugged him. She'd desperately missed her brother and was glad he was there.
He hugged her back tightly. "But I can't believe you slept together," he mumbled grumpily in her ear.
Riley sighed. "We fell asleep in the same bed, Nick." she pressed her hands against his chest.
Nick sighed. "I know, I know. I just... I want you to be careful, okay?"
"I'm not ready for that, Nick." she tells her.
"I know, but it's just some advice from your big brother," he gave her a grin.
Riley smiled and shook her head. "Can we go inside now. I need a shower."
He nodded and walked back with her.As soon as they saw them, Ryan sat up, biting his lip.
Riley smiled softly and gathered her stuff, walking to the bathroom. She locked the door and started the shower. ((Nick should have a talk with Ryan.))
((Uhh... Talk to myself?? XD))
Nick sat next to Ryan and sighed. "So..""So.." Ryan said, biting his lip. "You're not mad?"
Nick shook his head, smiling a bit. "I'm not mad. However, I want you to be careful with her. She's been through too much already," he told him, frowning. He knew that Riley's life wouldn't get any easier, but Ryan could definitely make her happy. Ryan nodded at his words. "I'll make her happy. I promise."
Riley snorted softly. Oh that was great. As if it wasn't bad enough... Riley sighed as she pulled on her shirt. She put her towel on the rack and left the bathroom, grabbing a comb as she went. Riley sat on the bed, ignoring them, and started combing her hair.
Nick quickly shut up as he heard the bathroom door opening, and he nodded at Ryan before going to his room.Ryan stood and went over to Riley's room. He knocked on the door. "May I come in?" he asked.
Riley shrugged than remembered he couldn't see her. "Yeah." she said, brushing her hair back from her forehead. She grabbed a schrunie and pulled her hair into a ponytail.
Ryan walked in, smiling as he saw her. "So... how did your talk go?"
Riley raised a shoulder. "I think he understands." she gave him a look. "I bet you know though." Riley fell back on the bed, sadness filling her mind. "When can I go home?" she whispered.
He went to sit next to her, sighing a bit. "At least he didn't rip my head off," he chuckled. After her question though, he sobered up. "I don't know."
Riley nodded and curled up in a ball. She laid her head on a pillow, wishing it all away. Wishing she could live a normal life.
He gently started stroking her hair, biting his lip. 'I know you want to go back, Riley. I'm sorry."
Riley closed her eyes, nodding (again). She cuddled close to him, pressing her face his to his shoulder.
