C8 The Ride

"I'm going under and this time I fear there's no one to save me

This all or nothing really got a way of driving me crazy

I need somebody to heal

Somebody to know

Somebody to have

Somebody to hold"

"Wha- t's th- is ? " I said in a terrified voice.

"Seriously? You never saw a bike in your life? " Zakhar said irritatingly.

"Oh hell no! "

I violently shook my head, "There's no way I'm getting on that thing. I don't have a death wish."

He rolled his eyes and handed me an extra helmet as he got on the bike, "It's a great rush. I really think you'll like it if you give it a shot. And you don't have a choice. So Live a little. "

Damn him. I'm really scared of riding motorcycles because once Ray was seriously wounded by riding a motorcycle in a wrong way. He was in bed for a month and grounded for six months. I always heard his screamings. It's terrifying. But since I don't have a choice because of my own stupidity I've to go with him. Maybe I'm gonna die today.

"Are you going to sit here or I'll leave you here? " He said in a grumpy voice.

" Do I really have a choice? " I asked him and he started laughing.

I'm definitely choosing death between death and facing Cole. Without another word, I strapped the helmet on and got on behind him.

"Wrap your arms around my waist and hold on tight. That's all you have to do. " He instructed, waiting for me to wrap my arms around him before starting up the motorcycle.

I'm practically having a heart attack, I could feel my erratic heartbeat over the sound of the motorcycle.

"Here we go." Zakhar said, and seconds later we were off.

This isn't so bad I thought, although we were still in the parking lot. My mind quickly changed when we got onto the actual road and started going a lot faster. I held onto Zakhar as tightly as I could and closed my eyes, terrified for my life. I can't believe people willingly do this!

When I wrapped my arms around him he became a little bit of uncomfortable. My hairs were flying all over his face. But I can't unwrap him or open my eyes. It's so scary.

"Open your eyes, princess." He ordered.

"No!!" I screamed hugging him more tightly. Though being terrified for my Life I can't stop blushing from the fact that that he had called me princess. Thank God he can't see my face otherwise he would make fun of me.

" Believe me, you're gonna enjoy this. Please trust me, I'll never let anything bad happen to you. " He said.

I would never opened my eyes if there was someone else in his place. But There was something in his voice which made me open my eyes. And thank God! I did. The wind was loud in my ears and my hair flew in all directions as we sped down road after road. As we drove I got more and more comfortable . This is such a thrill! I forgot about everything that happened. I am feeling so alive. Now I understand why people love riding bikes.

We passed the parks, office buildings, businesses with bright neon lights. But my favourite thing to see was the river that flowed under a bridge where lovers stood in the night, looking down at their joint reflection in the water with the moonlight overhead. Smiling, holding hands and loving the night as the night breeze brush their skins sending just enough chill to make them shiver closer.

"Are you enjoying, Mary? " He asked me.

I didn't answer him. Instead I started cheering and standing on the bike. He was also smiling at me.

"I'm glad you're enjoying this ride. " He said touching my hands.

"Thank you sooooo muchhhhhhh for persauding me to ride in this ride. Otherwise I would have never feel this happiness in my entire life. " I said hugging him more tightly. I felt I can go like this for my entire life.

When he pulled off the ride I was a little bit of sad. I didn't want this ride to be ended so soon.

" Don't be so sad. We'll go through it again. " he said keeping the key on his pocket.

"Thanks. Wait a minute! This is not my residence. Where you've bought me?" I said looking at the unknown environment.

"Aren't you full of questions? " He said keeping the helmet from me.

" You said you're giving me a ride to my home " I told him pointing towards his chest.

" Well I do said I'm giving you a ride. But I never said I'm going to your home. " He said looking towards me with his beautiful black eyes.

"You're a different creature. And can I ask you why you've bought me here, Zakhar?

" Well we're going to eat something at first. I'm really hungry. " He said looking towards a expensive shop.Is he crazy?

It's true that I'm also hungry. I barely eat anything since lunch if you not count Ice cream and chit chat foods. So I didn't complain.

"I'm not hungry. " I lied to him. But the look on his face clearly described that he didn't buy that.

"I didn't invite you to eat with me " he said sarcastically.

"I'm going...." I turned to walk away.

"WAIT! I'm just messing with you. " he said laughingly.

"I thought you were being genuine, jerk." I moaned, turning to walk away.

Zakhar pulled me back towards him. "Don't- leave-please-" Zakhar said between laughs.

"Well, if you're going to keep laughing like this then bye." I told him, moving away again.

But suddenly I was pulled into a hug. Zakhar had stopped laughing and had enveloped me in his arms, sighing deeply.

" God, you're so cute ."

His comment made my heart blush. What're you doing to me Zakhar Hunter ? I said to myself.
