ryders driver had pulled up and let her in the back of the car with him. “thanks for coming out with me so late notice.” he said first. “my daughters birthday is friday and she is turning 16, apparently that is a huge thing.” the man joked as the car took off with them in it. “i am really at a blank on what to get her and assumed since you like nice things you could maybe be of help?” he asked her.

One, two, punch— it was the steady rhythm he'd come to lean on more than his own heartbeat and yet to anyone else who didn’t fight, it seemed entirely counterproductive. What could possibly be gained from slamming fists into another human being until the final bell tolled? Nothing, or at least that was how it appeared from the outside looking in. But the truth was that whenever he was jammed up tight with nowhere to put his thoughts and their never ending spin, that steady cadence of swinging punches gave Sawyer somewhere to shove them. Over the years, whether it took shape between tattered ropes or a chain linked cage, a fighting ring had always been somewhat of a sanctuary for Sawyer— the one place where he managed to scrape up a moment of peace despite the way chaos seemed to rage all around him. He wondered how many people actually understood that— the way fighting wasn’t so much of a choice, but a necessity. He didn’t know that he’d ever be able to explain it, but when it came to people like Ryder, Sawyer knew he’d never have to.

After what had happened at the warehouse, Sawyer needed to blow off steam, needed to somehow make it make sense— and luckily for him, Ryder had been willing to move around in the ring with him. Though he wasn’t so sure it was lucky for Ryder. Ordinarily, Sawyer was a decent sparring partner who could rein himself in and show some discipline. But in his current headspace, he’d lost all sense of that word and had thrown series after series of frenzied punches until he finally found himself backing into the ropes, out of breath. “Fuck,” he shouted through gritted teeth as he dropped his hands, momentarily calling for a ceasefire. Running a set of taped fingers through his hair, flattening the unruly blond strands against his head, he shot Ryder an apologetic look, “Sorry, man.” But it wasn’t as though the younger man hadn’t held his own— he’d done that and more, just as Sawyer had predicted he would. He’d seen how talented Ryder was. Sawyer just felt bad for coming at him like a bat out of hell without even so much as a warning. “Prob’ly not what you were expectin’ when I asked ya to train.”

Ryder had been going out with Josh for a few weeks now. Dating ever since that first price date Josh got. And while he was comfortable in their relationship there were still many questions that came to his mind. Although the biggest was why did they only make out. IT was beyond him to find a guy that didn’t want to have sex with him. But he didn’t push things not even asked about  it, just tried to have him everytime they were making out and stopped whenever Josh asked him to. Boundaries were important. Or so he was told.

But as he was walking towards Josh’s place to pick him up for a surprise date, and when walking near a bar that he knew he used to go to, he found him in the distance talking to another guy. At first, he thought he was a friend, but when he saw him touching his arm in a flirting way he couldn’t help but storm in and near him. “Dude!” Ryder pointed with a smile, trying to control his jealousy to be noticed, or his anger, “what’s this? Who is he?”

Zoey gasped as Ryder pinned her to the wall. She could feel him through his trousers and her eyes rolled back into her head as he pressed himself against her. “Oh god..” She moaned softly, the sounds spilling from her lips. There was a New Years Eve party going on just outside this room..and she wasn't’ sure she could be quiet enough..but the last thing she wanted him to do was stop.

ryder had felt like things had been going perfect since mavis had moved in. the kids had loved having her around and ryder did too. he had took the time to actually cook them something nice instead of order it out or have someone else cook for them. as he began to eat he looked over the table at her. “things have been good having you around here.” he admitted as he took a drink of his wine before speaking again. “would it be completely out of line if i asked you not to see anyone else?” he questioned.

ryder handed the beautiful bouquet over to the female. “i was hoping it wouldnt be too much.” he had admitted. “like i told you before this dating this is all new to be. it has been twenty years since iver had a second or third date.” he chuckled. “but i picked them all out myself. a little assortment of the ones i thought were the prettiest.

he could kill her, ryder was so pissed off at salem for sneaking off... again. at times he often wondered if the woman forgot that she was famous. she couldnt just run off and go to club and bars without him or someone there. she could be so careless at times and it really pissed ryder off. the last thing he needed was her management team firing him for not being able to keep up with her. he was one of the best in his field. he had used his phone to track hers and when he found her location at the club downtown he was fluming. within minutes he was in there pushing people out of his way. when he seen the blonde with a drink in her hand dancing he was quick to make his way over to her. without hesitation to plucked the drink from her small hands. “fucking move.” he told the young man who was enjoying his time dancing with her. then his hand grabbed her and literally put her over his shoulder. he didnt have time to fight with her in the middle of the club so he figured this was the easiest way to get her out. once he made his way out he thanked the bouncer and sat her down in his car. “i cant fucking believe you salem.” was all that left his mouth when he started the engine.
