"I don't like that guy..." Ryder whispered closing the door behind us softly.

"Why? He doesn't seem bad..." I shrugged.

"I just don't like the looks of him."

"Quick to judge huh?" I teased while rolling my eyes.

"No..." He replied, his voice deep. He leaned into me, taking my hands within his. "I just got some weird vibe from him..."

"Vibe...?" I asked, leaning in closer to him.

"I don't know... Just stay away from him ok?" He finally closed the distance between us and kissed me softly. I ran my hands through his hair, deepening the kiss.

"Jealous much?" I said breathlessly, breaking the kiss. He grinned at me and rolled his eyes.

"Shut it." He teased playfully. He plopped down on the small bed we shared in the middle of the cramped room. "Let's get some rest doll."

I smiled and laid down, curling up in his warm embrace. I heard him slowing falling asleep, but instead, I found myself thinking about what he had said.

Just stay away from him, ok?

He couldn't be that bad. Right? Ryder was just overreacting. Funny, I didn't find him as the jealous type. Dean was, but Ryder didn't see like that. I shrugged it off as I slowly fell asleep myself.
