Before I could turn around, a pair of arms wrapped around my waist, and pulled me close.

I breathed in, smelling his cologne.

"What are you doing here?" I asked turning around.

"I took the first flight here. I missed you. I couldn't take it."

I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him passionately. God, I missed him. Beyond words.

I pulled away and looked into his eyes.

"So you like it here?"

"It's amazing, Ryan."

"No, you're amazing, Kylie."

I smiled and kissed him.

"So when are you leaving?" I asked.

"You want me to leave?"

"No! I mean how long are you planning on staying?"

"Oh. I don't really know. I came here with my brother."

"Your brother?"

"Yeah, come on, you can meet him."

I followed him into the elevator. Well we were a good 70 floors from the lobby.

"Soo... was it really necessary to get the penthouse suite? You don't think it's a little over the top?"

He shrugged.

"Go big or go home."

I rolled my eyes. 

"Maybe I should go home."

"This is home."

I smiled at him and sighed.

"You spoil me way to much."

"You deserve it."

We walked out of the building.

 Ryan's POV

Surprising Kylie was always fun. 

When we got outside, I introduced Devon to Kylie.

"Hey, where are we staying?" he asked.

Shit. Hadn't thought about that.

"Um, yeah, hadn't thought about that yet."

I looked at Kylie.

"Maybe we could all stay at our place tonight?"

"You're kidding right?" She asked.

"No, why?"

"There's no furniture there! We don't even have beds or anything."

"So?"

She rolled her eyes at me.

"I guess we're staying at our place tonight." She finally said.

Kylie's POV

Agreeing that we could stay at our place was the worst idea ever. Well, not that bad. I was with Ryan. But still. 

"This is weird." I said, as we laid in the darkness.

"It's not that weird."

"You insisted we buy mattresses. Now we're laying in an empty room... With no blankets."

He snuggled closer to me.

"I'll keep you warm. At least I know I can sleep tonight."

I smiled and kissed him gently.

After Ryan fell asleep, I got out of bed. I walked towards the glass wall. There wasn't just one in the kitchen, but there was also one in the dining room and living room. Then again, almost every room in the apartment had a killer view. 

I gently tapped on the glass. I looked out the window. I always thought New York the most beautiful in the fall. I saw the tall buildings and the lights. 

I looked around the apartment and smiled. This is where Ryan and I live. Never in a million years did I ever imagine that I would end up with an Olympian, yet alone Ryan. But this is where we would eventually raise a family. 

Hmm kids. Would I be ready for kids? Maybe in a few years, not now. Marriage? I could see myself getting married to Ryan in the near future. After all, he was my future. Where would I be in ten years? Would I be married to Ryan? Would we have kids?

I felt him arms slide around my waist. He kissed my shoulder.

"Can't sleep?" I asked.

"You left the bed. I got cold. What are you doing over here?"

"Thinking."

"What about?"

"I'm just really excited to be here with you, Ryan. I love you."

I bent down and kissed me.

"I love you."

He picked me up and carried me back to bed.

I woke up early in the morning. Sunlight filled the room. I squinted from the brightness and looked at my phone. It was only 7am. I looked around again. We really needed to put curtains up or something.

I figured Ryan and Devon wouldn't wake up for at least a few more hours, so I made a quick trip to the store and picked up a few things. 

I went back home and saw that Ryan and Devon were still asleep, like I left them. I decided to take a shower and get dressed. 

After, I sat on the bed next to Ryan. I stoked his hair.

"Wake up, Ryan." I said, softly.

His eyes fluttered open. He smiled and looked at me dreamily. 

"Hey." He said.

"Get dressed. I'm hungry."

He opened his mouth to say something, but I stopped him.

"And before you mention it, no, we're not going to have sex." He added.

"Why not? I haven't seen you in weeks."

"Uh, your brother's staying with us."

"Oh, yeah. I forgot about him."

"How could you forget him? You were the one who brought him with you."

"Yeah I know. The other day he thought it was a huge deal that you're younger than me."

"Why? Four years isn't even that bad."

He shrugged.

"I don't know. You're the same age as him. Anyway I'm going to take a shower and get dressed. Like you asked."

He gave me a quick kiss and left the room. 

 I walked out into the living room and admired the view.

I heard footsteps and turned around.

"Oh, um, hey Devon."

"Where's Ryan?"

"In the shower."

"Did you tell him?"

"I didn't see a reason to. It's in the past, right? It was once, like four years ago."
