“I trust you.” Elara x Ryker
“I trust you”
Those were big words, especially coming from Elara whom Ryker hadn’t known that long. But honestly, he trusted her too. Their impromptu date had gone surprisingly well and they’d gone out a few times since. He was really starting to take a liking to Elara which definitely shocked him because she was someone his parents would actually approve of. She had dreams and ambitions and was an all-around good person, which was way more than Ryker could say of himself.
When the words left her mouth, he couldn’t help but smile and wrap an arm around her shoulders, pulling her into his side. She was beautiful and tiny and the fact that she trusted him meant the world because, the more he got to know her, the more he wanted to be the one to protect her and take care of her and ...love her? He leaned down and pressed a light kiss to the top of her head, smiling as the light scent of her shampoo permeated his senses. “I trust you too,” he replied with a soft laugh. “I trust you’re gonna drive me crazy until you officially agree to be my girlfriend.”
