Different Worlds, Same Interests

Chapter 25

**Carter's POV**

My plane just landed, and I can't wait to see Ryan. I got off my plane and went to go grab my luggage. I got and cab and took it to the venue where Ryan's band is playing.

"Hey, Carter!"

I turned around to see Ryan running to me

"Ryan!" I ran to him and wrapped my arms around him

"I missed you" Ryan said kissing me

"I missed you, too!" 

"Let me show you around the venue then we'll go to the hotel."

"Do you have a show tonight?"

"No, I have one tomorrow"

"So we can just hang out today?"

"Yes we can"

I smiled and followed Ryan into the bus

"I'm gonna put your bags in my bunk for now"

"Ok, that'll work"

"Hey Carter!" Ricky said walking into the bus

"Hey Ricky. How are you?"

"I'm good. You?"

"Great!"

"The other guys are coming" Ricky said going to the back of the bus

"Be prepared. Gaia and Kylie can come off super strong sometimes" Ryan said

"Oh, ok" Ryan and I sat down on a couch in the front lounge area

"Hey Carter!" Vinny said

"Hi, Vinny"

"Nice of you to join us" Ghost said walking in with a girl following him "this is my girlfriend, Kylie. Kylie this is Carter, Ryan's girlfriend"

"Nice to meet you" I said smiling

"Gaia and I were going to go to the mall today do you wanna join us"

"Thanks for the invite, but I'm just going to hang out with Ryan today. Maybe we can go to Starbucks in the morning?"

"Oh, yeah. That'll be good"

Chris finally came into the bus with a girl who looked almost identical to him behind him.

"Carter, I'm glad you're finally going to watch us play a show!" Chris said

"Yeah, me too. It's been long enough."

"This is my girlfriend, Gaia, by the way. Babe, this is Ryan's girlfriend, Carter"

"It's good to meet you, finally. Ryan's been very quiet about you"

Ricky laughed "Carter is all he ever talks about!! Are you kidding me? I wonder what Carter is doing? I wonder what she ate for breakfast? Did she sleep good? That's all I hear all day long"

I giggled and now looked at a blushing Ryan "it's ok. All my friends hear about is Ryan"

Ryan and I talked to the guys on our way to the hotel. Once we got there Ryan took me to our room.

"Ryan, you shouldn't have done this."

The hotel was fancy and no doubt expensive. I know I couldn't afford it. Especially, on what I make.

"I wanted us to have a nice, quiet, intimate time" Ryan said walking up behind me kissing my neck; his tattooed hands resting on my hips.

"R-Ryan" I said almost breathless

"Hm?" He whispered against my skin

"I, um" I couldn't get out my sentence. Ryan's hands were already working on the button my jeans

"Oh, forget it!" I said taking off my shirt and kissing Ryan passionately not even caring about anything other than him
