The Hotel Royal

Johnathon:

"I'm sorry, my angel. I won't do that to you." I sighed. "Goodnight."

I forced myself to walk out and head back to my room. I opened the door. My brother grinned at me. "Have a fun night?"

"Yes, but not what YOUR thinking." I said biterly. I hated being around my brother.

"Awh. still trying to get that succulent sutherner to like you?" he laughed.

"She does like me." I said.

He laughed and I walked into one of the other rooms and fell asleep.

Ryan:

I was mad! How could she like my brother and not me?! I was going to teach her a lesson. I lefted and went to her room. I oppened the door. It was unlocked.

"Johnathon?" came the soft question. It was dark. I nodded. she smiled. this was going to be fun. I stripped us both and layed beside her, enjoying everything about her.

Take that little bro. I thought with a chuckle.

(Sorry, I thought something should happen. You can kick his butt when you wake up. XD)

(((Well, she wouldn't have really done that. But I can work with it. Though I'll skip to the next morning.)))

Dusty---

Dusty woke up and sighed rolling over to look at Jonathon, she didn’t know why he had come back, but was happy that he had. She froze when she saw Jonathon’s brother laying there asleep. She felt bile rise in her throat and she jumped up. She grabbed her robe that was tossed over another bed and tied it around her. She grabbed a pillow and slammed it into his head.

“Wake up you, JERK!” She growled.

Ryan:

I wrenched my eyes open, then laughed. "What's wrong, angel? Have too much fun last night?" I grinned. She was furious. it was fun. It was immense fun. I laughed cruelly. "You know, I could do it again, gorgeous."

Dusty---

Dusty had had control over her anger, but his words made her furious. She jumped on the bed and started punching him. "YOU BASTARD!" She growled.

Ryan:

I grabbed her hands and pinned them behind her back. she winced. I kissed her neck, bitting it a bit harder than necessary. "Don't deny you didn't like it." I kissed her on the lips. The door openned and there stood my stupid brother.

Johnathon:

I looked at the scene before me, horrified. I knew it was too good to be true. I swallowed hard. "I...uh didn't know I was interupting anything." I looked at Dusty, hurt. How could I have let this happen. "Bro, I think I'm going to go..." I inched out of the room and fled.

Dusty---

"GET YOUR GRIMY HANDS OFF ME!" Dusty screeched, she wanted to cry. She tried to pull free but she couldn't. "Look what you did, your a piece of trash!"

She looked towards the door, Jonathon was gone, he wouldn't believe her. She tried to pull free again tears welling up in her eyes. She wanted to kill Ryan, to slit his throat or something, but she couldn't. She couldn't move.

Ryan:

I laughed. "He'll get over it. At least it taught you both a lesson." I kissed her neck. "Have I mentioned how beautiful you are?" I asked. "Enchanting even. when your being a good little girl and not trying to kill me." I bit her earlobe and kissed her lips again. "I had a lot of fun. But I suppose all good things must come to end, unfortunately." I sighed. "Goodbye, gorgeous. Maybe we can do this again." I flung her on the bed and walked out.

Johnathon:

I whipped tears off my face. I was such an idiot! I packed up my stuff and rented another room. I couldn't be around Ryan, now. I sighed and walked outside and toward the barns. I needed to take my mind off of her, but everything I saw reminded me of her. I went to the park, sat down on a bench, and cried.

Dusty---

Dusty curled up on the bed crying. Her whole body shook with tears. She finally climbed up and jumped in the shower trying to rense off the memories of the night before. She should've stuck with her gut and told him to just go back to his room. But she couldn't. She had fallen into a trap, she hadn't known it was Ryan, but she blamed herself for being stupid.

When she got out of the shower she still felt horrible. She pulled a torn pair of jeans on and a halter top. She hurried out of her room and towards the barn. She needed to ride, she needed to lose herself in the smell and feel of horses. She had lost the reason to stay here. She would call her dad, tell him she had to come home. If he refused she would tell him what happened, he would come up here himself to get her. She felt the tears start to fall again as she climbed on the horses back. She raced out of the barn letting the horse have it's head. She couldn't see through the tears in her eyes. She finally wiped her eyes when the horse slowed and looked around. She was in the park. She dismounted and burried her face in the horses neck telling him all her woes. Horses had always listened and helped her through hard times. They didn't say she was stupid for feeling like she was. They just stood there, soemtimes nickering. Her knees gave way and she fell to the ground sobbing. She felt the horse nudge her head and she absently petted it's head.

Johnathon:

I heard a horse, then someone crying. I sighed. I couldn't let someone go hurting, no matter how I felt. I saw Dusty sitting in the ground, crying. I ran to her and pulled her into my arms. I stroked her back and let her cry. I had no idea why she was upset, but I couldn't stand it! I groaned inwardly. Life was so cruel.

Dusty---

Dusty jumped when she felt someone's arms wrap around her. She looked up and saw Jonathon. More tears rolled down her face and she burried her face in his shoulder.

"I-I t-th-though, T-thought y-you..." She couldn't finish her sentence as a new batch of tears rolled down her face causing her whole body to shake in a sob. "H-he..."

Johnathon:

I sighed and pulled her closer, kissing the top of her head. "Sh...It's okay. It's alright. I'm here." If that makes any difference. I added mentally. "Shh...it's okay m-" I sighed, "angel." I was going to say, "my angel" but I didn't think she was mine anymore. I wanted to cry with her. I just held onto her and whispered into her ear, trying to calm her down.

Dusty---

Dusty finally stopped crying. She pulled away and looked at him. "Why are you even talking to me, y-you should hate me. I-I thought i-it w-was y...." She jumped up and jumped on the horse racing away. She couldn't talk about it. She was riding bareback, so she wrapped her arms around the horses neck crying as it ran. She had ruined everything, probably destroyed the best thing that ever happened to her. Lost the best person she had ever met. When she got back to the barn she jumped off and turned it in walking back to her room. She was going to pack, she wasn't going to give Ryan room to get close to her. SHe was going to make this easier on Jonathon and just get out of their lives for forever. She didn't want to call her dad, but she knew she was going to have to.

Johnathon:

I cursed. I hailed a cab and jumped out. I ran up to her room and burst in. "Please don't leave!" I begged. "You at least owe me an explanation." I challenged. I didn't want to hurt her, but if it meant keeping her here, then I would. "Or did you think it was fun toying with my emotions?" I knew it was cruel, but I didn't want her to leave! At least this way she wouldn't without an explanation.

Dusty---

Dusty just looked at him, he thought she was just playing with him. She felt the tears try to come, but she pushed them away. "I wasn't toying with your emotions." She finally managed to say. "You want an explanation?" He nodded and she sank onto the bed. "I don't know why, I didn't lock my door. A little while after y-you left someone walked in. From what I could see it looked like you. I asked if it was and whoever it was nodded.....I-I" She couldn't finish, "I'm sorry. I should jsut leave." She stood up a few tears rolling down her face. She through her dress from the day before in her bag along with her robe. She started towards the dresser. The sooner she got out the better. He'd forget she ever existed. She knew she would never be able to forget him.

Johnathon:

I frowned. "What happened?" I demanded, trapping her in my arms, forcing her to look at me. "I'm not going to let you go. I love you. If you think you can just walk out of my life so easily, you're gravely mistaken. what happened? After the man nodded?"
