We pulled up in front of Michael and Star. Michael was getting on an old red battered bike.

"Where you going Star?" I hissed. She looked at with annoyance.

"For a ride" she replied nervously. She tried to hide how nervous she was but I could smell her fear. It was intoxicating. She started walking towards Michael and his bike.

"Star" I said menacingly. She sent an apologetic look towards Michael and walked towards Paul.

I pressed my cheek hard into Davids back because I knew Michael would be mad that I was hanging out with these guys. He was the protective older brother type.

All I could smell was Davids scent. It reminded me of cigarettes, leather and copper. The smell was so unique and hypnotic. I wanted to smell it forever.

"Star" David warned. She started slowly walking toward Paul. Michael got up from his bike. He looked at David and then looked directly at me.

"Ashley?" Why are you on his bike?" He questioned me whilst getting closer to us.

Mike got close to David which cause David to put his hand against his chest and push him back.

"We are just going to have some fun. You can join us if you want." Said David whilst tilting his head to the side and smirking.

"I'm fine Mike. We are just having some fun" I said whilst smiling at him.

"You know where Hudson's Bluff is? Overlooking the point?" David questioned him. David revs the engine which causes me to tighten my grip around his waist.

"I can't beat your bike" replied Michael.

"You don't have to beat me Michael" he said with a smirk. "Just try to keep up."

Michael got back on his bike and started up the engine.

"Hold on tight love" he whispered to me. I readjusted my grip and we set off into the beach.

We were moving so fast everything was a blur. The wind ran its fingers through my hair and caressed my soft skin. The chill in the air was so refreshing . I tilted my head back and closed my eyes whilst taking in everything that had just happened. I was living my dream. I was finally free.

I could hear the boys cheering and howling behind me. I breathed in deeply and let a howl. It's felt great to finally be able to release all my emotions.

"Yes Ashley!" I heard Paul shouting. Marko was laughing in the background.

This was the happiest I had ever felt in my entire life. The wind blowing through my hair; surrounded by people that like me; finally being free from my worries.

"Whatever happens next I need you to know that I would never hurt you or your brother. Okay love? He whispered to me.

"What what do you mean?" I questioned him with a shaky voice.

"Do you trust me?" He asked. Something about him made want to trust him but I had o lot just met him. He could be a murderer for all I know.

"I do" I said. I'm not sure why I said it. It was was like a magnet was pulling in and tempting me stay in this path. Maybe it was fate or maybe it was death awaiting his next soul to collect. I didn't know which but I wanted to find out.

David sped up. I hardly keep hold of him. I entangled my fingers to ensure that I wouldn't let go. I looked to my left and saw Michael catching up with us. Soon we were neck and neck. Mike was also competitive especially when trying to beat me. I was always better on a bike than him. He would never admit it though.

I looked over David's shoulder and saw the lights of the lighthouse. Were we at a cliff edge? My breathing started to quicken and become shallow.

"David" I whispered meekly.

He didn't reply but his from earlier replayed in my head. "Do you trust me?" I put my forehead against his chest not wanting to look ahead. I focused on my breathing trying to slow it. I took a deep breath through my nose. The smell of cigarettes, leather and copper hit my senses. My body instantly relaxed into Davids. That same burning feeling form earlier ignited in my body.

Suddenly we came to a stop. I looked up to see Michael and his bike on the floor. I looked over Davids shoulder and saw the ocean. We were at the cliff edge!

"You can breath now" said David teasingly.

"Shut up" I replied whilst hitting him in the back. He laughed in response.

All of a sudden Michael rushed at David and punched him.

"That's for my sister!" He screamed. "You could've killed us!"

"Your not dead though are you" said David with his signature smirk.

"Come on Ashley let's get out of here" said Mike whilst picking up his bike. I didn't move. I was loyal to my family but I wanted to stay.

"Ash?" He questioned. I looked at all the guys they seemed sad at the idea of me leaving. Dwayne looked as he usually did but he had a glint of sadness in his eyes. Paul looked at his feet not wanting to know my answer. Marko looked straight at me biting at his thumb out of nervousness.

"Come on Mike live a little" I said teasingly and smirked at him. I heard Paul cheer in the background. I looked over to Dwayne and Marko who had smiles etched across their faces.

"1 hour. Any funny business and I will drag you home." He warned.

"Okay. Okay" I replied.

"Your riding with me though" he said sternly whilst initiating a staring contest. We often did this as children.

"Whatever" I said. I started to climb of David's bike when David grabbed my wrist.

"Don't miss me to much love" he said teasingly.

"I won't" I replied whilst kissing him in the cheek. I walked over to Michael and climbed into the back of his bike. He was staring at David like he wanted to punch him. I looked at David and all I could see was a smile on his face.

"Follow me Michael" said David as he set of at a more slow controlled pace.

"I don't like him" whispered Mike.

"Well I do. Get over it Mike this is the one time I've ever been happy" I snapped. He quickly shut his mouth and didn't speak for the rest of the journey.

We slowed down until we were on the other said of the cliff. David climbed of his bike and I followed. I didn't even look back at Michael and walked straight up to David.

"Miss me" I said whilst biting my lip flirtatiously.

"Of course I did love" he replied. I loved it when he called me that. Every time he said it sparks shot through my body.

He grabbed my hand and fingers interlocked perfectly as if they were meant to.

"Boys why don't you show Michael where we hang out" he suggested to them.

"Come on Michael" shouted Marko whilst practically skipping around the corner. The others boys followed. Star lead Laddie round the corner and Michael followed her like a lost puppy.

David grabbed my waist and pulled out bodies together.

"I finally have you all to myself" he said whilst tucking a piece of my hair behind my ear. My cheeks burned red at the action. I stared up into his blue eyes. They were so hypnotic like they were calling to me.

I wrapped my arms round his neck and said "I'm all yours". He leant in closer to my face probably and inch or two away.

"Are you sure you want this?" He questioned. I wasn't sure what he meant but whatever it was I wanted it badly.

"I've always wanted this" I replied.

He kissed me. His lips so soft and gentle. He tightened his grip around around my waist. His hands started to explore my body. I knew that I shouldn't let him but I desperately needed him to. My hands fell down to his chest. I felt his muscles through his black t-shirt. I felt him bite down on my bottom lip which led to a coppery taste filling my mouth. David locked over the small cut and purred in delight. I pulled away from leaving my hands on his chest and his on my hips.

"We should join the others" I said whilst looking up at him.

"Who cares about the others" he said whilst looking hungrily at my lips.

"I do" I replied.

"What even the annoying Paul?" He joked.

"Even the annoying Paul" I laughed whilst lowering my hands from his chest.

"Alright my love" he said whilst grabbing my hand.

We started to head towards their hangout.
