#Chapter86
---Boyfriend-02
Jake felt rather unlucky today. Everything had been a mess and nothing went his way. This whole day he felt like being stripped of all his clothes that hid his secrets, wounds, insecurities and faults. Everything was out in the open for Ryder to see. It felt like constantly being pushed towards the edge of a cliff and just one word from Ryder would be enough for him to fall off it. This was the fourth time he felt like this today. The first time was when he ran into Ryder half naked and realized that she most likely recognized him. Then it was when Aiden /"accidentally/" blurted out how he took drugs, making it sound as if he was addicted to it. Then it was back in the garden when he thought that Ryder would drive him away. And now… this fourth time… Jake wasn’t sure anymore how much of him could Ryder tolerate. Yet his worries froze in his heart and trembled as the warm lips of her touched his wrist softly.
