IS IT TRUE THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS THIS BREATHTAKING? you're smart and you're willing , [/i] [/size] `` M Y G O D T H I S I S K I L L I N G M E ,,[/font][/center] Skyler sighed and stretched, pulling his arms over his head and clasping his hands together, tugging his arm upwards to feel the satisfying pop of his shoulders and back. Sighing a little as he felt the tension release a little. He'd been sitting for god knows how long, and when he squinted at the clock, he had to blink a few times to make out the numbers. This was definitely not a good sigh -- if his eyes were blurring. Obviously, he'd been sitting at the front of the computer screen for far too long without his glasses. Biting his lip, he picked up his glasses and put them on. He was SO close to finishing this story, and he hated to not be able to finish something he started. He figured that he needed a stopping point. Sighing softly, Skyler saved the file, tapping one foot against the carpet around his desk. He realized he needed some photos for his article that he'd forgotten earlier, so he stood up from the desk he'd been sitting at for far too long. Moving around the room and shutting down the program, he grabbed his cell phone for some reason. People looked at him like the newbie that he happened to be, and he hated it. It was like being the new kid in school again. People probably didn't take him seriously yet -- and while it had pissed him of for a while, Skyler figured he could just get over it.
Rolling his eyes as he walked down the hallway, he turned his eyes away from everyone else. They didn't know him so maybe they should wait until they did in order to judge him. He found his way to the elevator, pressing the button to go up. He stood there for a moment until the door opened and his eyes peered upwards a little to lay his eyes on Ray. There was no doubt that the man was sexy as hell. And, maybe he shouldn't be crushing on someone he didn't even known and especially on his first day of work. There was just something about him that he couldn't pinpoint just yet. He didn't look much older than him, but he could be wrong. That did happen every once in a while. Walking into the elevator, he stood somewhat closely to him pressing the button for the third floor.

The big, metal boxes of death were the last thing he ever wanted to set foot in. Every time he was forced to go into the bowels of one of those wretched machines, he was almost positive that it would break down on him. He would be stranded on the damn thing forever and nobody would even notice. That might have been the worst part -- he'd die of starvation, lack of oxygen... maybe he'd just have to kill himself by ramming himself into one of the walls. If he did it hard enough, he could bash his skull open. Yeah, that was always a good way to die. End with a bang. A big, loud, skull-crushing bang! It wouldn't be the most elegant way to go, though. What, with brains and gore and blood and bone scattered everywhere -- okay. No. He needed to not think about suicide on an elevator when he was about to enter one.
He had way too much in his briefcase that he didn't want to lug down the stairs, so he had decided that he would take his chances with the elevator today. Swallowing a little and rocking onto the balls of his feet, he waited with a sense of impatience. Damned thing was taking too long... Was it really worth it? He was just about to turn tail and take the stairs when he heard a bright ding! Ray took a deep breath and walked inside, quickly pressing the button for the fourth floor. Someone else was inside and pressed the second button, making him inwardly groan with impatience. Now it was going to take even longer to get to where he needed to be. Rolling his eyes for a moment, he let out a loud puff of air and stared at the bland ceiling. This elevator music was shit. "Fucking hell. And I hated the real version of this song."
[/b] His voice was a grumble at best, a snarling growl at the worst. The floor the woman to his right wanted was reached, and as the elevator skidded to a halt, she quickly moved to the front to exit. Ray blinked icily as she left, and looked up to watch who would enter. The elevator doors opened, revealing... a new journalist, apparently. A very. Very. Cute. New. Journalist. Ray's mind fizzled out for a moment as he stared, but then he remembered who he was and shook his head a bit. There was just something completely sexy about glasses, especially anything close to horn-rims. The man walked inside, standing close to Ray as he pressed for the third floor. Ray's lips curled into a flirty smirk as he turned his head so he was facing straight ahead. His eyes casually looked down on his newest subject as he tilted his head ever so slightly to the right. "You new here?"[/b] he asked casually, the tiniest flirting noise in his tone. The hunt was on. the word count 493 the ensemble here!the entourage skyler/izzie <3 out of character sexytiem [/blockquote][/size][/blockquote][/font]

IS IT TRUE THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS THIS BREATHTAKING? you're smart and you're willing , [/i] [/size] `` M Y G O D T H I S I S K I L L I N G M E ,,[/font][/center] Skyler hadn't always been a huge fan of elevators or any enclosed space, but this elevator was much more spacious than any he'd been on before. However, he felt very breathless being in this close proximity to him. He almost wished that it would break down for just a little while so he wouldn't have to escape through these doors and not be around him. Not that he should have to wish that something would break down just so he could talk to him. It seemed kind of silly to him now that he resorted to taking the elevator up one floor instead of the stairs. For someone that worked out on a normal basis, it was nothing. Why had he decided to not take the stairs? He didn't know. It's not like he knew that Ray would be on the elevator just a few steps away. Had he known that, it was highly possible that he never would've gathered to courage to get on.
Peering over at him every few seconds, his mind was dwindling down. He was forgetting what he was even going to third for. What was on the third floor, anyways? He didn't think there was anything worse than the music they chose to play in the elevator. No wonder people didn't want to take the elevator or get off as quickly as possible. He wasn't sure it was so much people's claustrophobia, but more of the torturous music that blasted in their ears. Once his eyes set on Ray's, he couldn't think. All he could think about was how did the odds work into his favor and put them on the same elevator together. He moved past the woman getting off the elevator and inside next to Ray. And, suddenly he felt like all eyes were on him yet again.
His mind froze when Ray looked back at him, and suddenly he couldn't think. His brain was the most easily-scattered out there and it wasn't hard to distract him. And, Ray was definitely someone that could distract him. He would be wearing glasses today, which he hated. Skyler always felt like he looked like the biggest dork when he wore them. But, stupidly enough he left his contacts back at his house. He looked over a little over to the one he was alone with. "Is it that obvious?" he asked with a little smile.

Anyone who had already fallen to the flirt's hands knew what he was doing now. He was studying his prey -- gay? Straight? Curious? The curious ones were always his favorite. He'd get them to turn in an instant. They proved to be a challenge for him. However, for some reason, he wasn't up for much of a challenge today. His brain was still cluttered with worry about Dolores' future. He didn't know what to do for her only because she didn't know what to do for herself. Wasn't like he could help her if he didn't have something to go off of. Sex was nothing more than a quick escape to Ray, as much as an alcoholic would consider turning to the bottle for a distraction.
Wetting his lips, he continued to stare and study the shorter guy standing a little too closely to Ray for it to be just friendly. He looked and tilted his head to the side as he searched for some form of identification -- an ID, nametag, something for him to go off of... of course, there was nothing there, making his eyes roll just a little. That made his task harder. But this guy was worth it -- he had a feeling. Anyone with horn-rim glasses and that adorable face was worth jumping into lava for. Well, he wouldn't go that far, not for anybody. That sounded too close to love. Love sucked. Nothing was worth it when it came to romance.
The shorter man spoke, and Ray smirked again and shook his head gently. "Nah, I just know everyone here." And I know what they look like naked. The thought made him scoff a little as he, ever so subtley, scooted a little closer to the guy, letting their shoulders brush gently before he retreated back to where he was before. He worked this way -- play it off like it was an accident. Make him ache for it. "At least you don't look like a dork about it. What's your name, anyway?" he asked gently, his voice a purr.

IS IT TRUE THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS THIS BREATHTAKING? you're smart and you're willing , [/i] [/size] `` M Y G O D T H I S I S K I L L I N G M E ,,[/font][/center] Skyler kept looking over at the guy very carefully and with determination. If he was going to be in this elevator with him, he was going to take advantage of the short time he had with him. He didn't know if Ray looked at everyone this way, or if he should feel special. He was betting that he didn't do this kind of thing just for him. Not that he didn't wish that, because really he did. It was hard to hide how he felt because every time it was always written all over his face. He tried not to look at him too much or too closely because that just gave him away each and every time. Maybe he was just another pawn in this guy's game. Or, maybe he should just stop thinking about it so much. It's not like any of it mattered to him or anything. He was just another guy that would pass him right by.
He continued to catch glances out of the corner of his eye. Had he moved closer to the guy subconsciously without realizing it? That was highly possible. His body was always doing things without his approval anyways. This was different, though, because he highly approved. There was something infectious about being around this guy, and he still couldn't pinpoint it. That annoyed him a little because he liked being able to figure guys out. Not that he'd ever figured one out, but he was up for some kind of challenge if it included more alone time.
Skyler shook his head a little and sent a smile over to him. "Right," he agreed. He didn't know Skyler. Maybe it was better that way. His heart started beating a little faster when he moved closer to him and he felt his shoulder hitting against Skyler's. He looked up at him forgetting what he was going to say. "Oh yeah, I never look like a dork," he joked. He thought he did, especially in his glasses. "Skyler."

He prowled like one, he had the hair for it, and he sure as hell could just smell the nerves radiating off of the newcomer's frame. He adored the hunt. The Most Dangerous Game. The literature reference and equating it to sex almost made him guffaw, but he had at least a tiny shred of self control left, allowing him to merely let his smirk falter into a rare grin for a split second before fading away. Irony was always something that made him laugh inwardly. Circumstantial irony was the best, though. Set up jokes were a total bore.
This guy was proving to be an excellent distraction from his woes about being inside what could be his last elevator ride. His hand rose that wasn't holding a briefcase, threading his fingers into jet black hair. It was surprisingly soft today -- he hadn't used much gel only because it was in his everyday style. Whenever he would put it up so his bangs were off of his face was normally for a special occasion. He had nobody to impress anymore, but he couldn't help but make sure he looked at least presentable when he walked out the door. He was self conscious about his appearance -- his freckles, he hated those damned things. He had to put on a mask of makeup every morning just to hide them... Freckles were an imperfection, a hiccup in his skin. Hiccups weren't something that people in this dog-eat-dog world could just gloss over. Personality didn't matter here. It was all about looks. The old Ray never would have thought about going into this sort of profession... but that was the freckly, blue eyed, innocent redhead that Joe eventually ruined. That Ray was dead. Not even the best guy in the world would be able to coax that man out again.
Chewing on his inner cheek idly, he tried to drown out the music via conversation. "Oh? I detected a note of sarcasm in your voice, cherie," he purred, silver gaze floating back to the man standing next to him. "Oh. Glad to meet you," he said after the man -- Skyler -- revealed his name. That was one obstacle down.
Suddenly, a gut wrenching screech filled the room. The horrid sound of metal grating against metal shrieked in Ray's ears, and he barked out a curse before feeling the elevator jerk. It sent him backwards, and he slid against the back wall, his hands covering his ears. "Ow, God fucking -- what the fuck was that?!" he barked out irritably, eyes squinting as his head pounded. He was very sensitive to light and sound, so that loud noise did nothing but damage for his poor eardrums. Then, the lights flickered off, and Ray realized what was going on. They were stranded. The elevator had broken down, stopped completely, and they were stranded.
Panic swelled in his frame, and he suddenly sank to the floor. His body began to shake as claustrophobia began to set in. The walls were starting to move closer, closer, closer until they were suffocating him... Ray swallowed thickly, sitting down against the back wall he had been flung onto. "Fuck..." he hissed, silver eyes wide and filled with raw fear. It didn't even occur to him that Skyler might be offended by his vulgar language -- not that he would care either way. He was too freaked out to care about anything at the moment.

IS IT TRUE THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS THIS BREATHTAKING? you're smart and you're willing , [/i] [/size] `` M Y G O D T H I S I S K I L L I N G M E ,,[/font][/center] Skyler was usually pretty oblivious when certain things were happening to him or being used in a different context than he was used to. When people told him something, he didn't always believe them. He didn't know what it was, but he guessed it had to do with his severe stubborn streak. And, when he liked someone it was hard for him to control his eyes, thoughts and suggestive comments. There were times when he just didn't beat around the bush and said exactly what he wanted without any remorse for the consequences.
There were not supposed to be gorgeous guys floating around this office. This was not a place where he needed to get distracted, and this guy could definitely distract him if he let it happen. He watched him carefully run his fingers through his hair, and he was sure at this point he was staring. Mentally, Skyler shook his head. He couldn't get distracted right now. On the other hand, Skyler didn't put much thought into his hair. It just kind of looked how it did. To him, it looked like sex hair which was fine with him. He kind of preferred it because sometimes it looked like he put actual thought into it when he really didn't. It just wasn't something that ever crossed his mind. Looks had never been very important to him. He was just kind of plain looking, anyways, or at least that was how he saw himself.
He laughed a little at his comment. If anything, he was always sarcastic. "That's something you should get used to with me," he promised. Not that he was insinuating he was going to stick around or anything. "You too. I didn't catch your name," he said, eyeing him carefully.
There was some high-pitched noise screeching in his ears and he didn't like it. This was his problem with elevators; they were always breaking down. How could one stop in the midst of going up one floor? He leaned his back against the elevator so he didn't fall over. "Oh, god...." Skyler trailed off, realizing what was happening. They were stuck together in this elevator and he cursed his original thought that it would be break down so they could be alone. He was kidding, but obviously karma had a strange sense of humor.
Skyler looked over at the man and his briefcase that were now on the floor. He eyed him carefully, seeing him shake. The protective side of him was coming out when he found himself kneeling next to him, resting his hand on the man's shoulder. "It's okay...." he promised again. He didn't like the prospect of being stuck on an elevator, but it was obvious that it bothered this guy more than it bothered Skyler.

He was staring. A smirk lit up his face, and he let his thumb hook inside his beltloop, his countenance oozing sex appeal. Oh, he would be easy. Nice and easy. He'd have him in a puddle by the time the elevator slowed to a stop. Wetting his lips, he allowed his eyes to pass over Skyler's frame nakedly -- there was no use in hiding his intentions. After all, they were bound to come around eventually, might as well make them known right now. That dress shirt was form fitting and showed off his torso quite nicely... His gaze was filled with heat as he stared at his chest. He had a feeling the guy was absolutely ripped under that thin veil of clothing... Skyler spoke, and Ray scoffed lightly at the words. "Good thing I can handle sarcasm fairly well," he commented, shooting a leer over at the shorter guy after he spoke.
He didn't have much time to respond to Skyler's inquiry, though, because that was when the elevator had stopped. And now, here he sat, bringing his knees to his chest in a slight fetal position while trying not to have a major panic attack in front of his newly found prey. Fuck fuck fuck. Of course the elevator would break down -- one of the rare times Ray would be in it, of course. Of course. Here he was, looking like a goddamn baby who lost his mother in a shopping center, right in front of the guy he was trying so hard to act suave around... at this rate, all of his hard work would go down the toilet -- he was ruining the two minutes of class that he had been trying to gain --
But then, there he was, kneeling down next to him, a surprisingly warm, surprisingly soft, surprisingly comforting hand resting on his shoulder. His silver eyes darted up from the floor in sudden surprise. What was he doing? Ray looked up at Skyler, a strange glimmer shining in his eyes. He was confused -- then again, he wasn't quite used to being the "damsel in distress." That was only around Dolores. She had seen him at his weakest point, and she only helped him. She didn't make fun of him... and neither was Skyler. It was strange. Ray was used to being cocky, self assured, overconfident... and that if he made one false move, he would be taunted for it. "I -- uh, thanks..." he said hesitantly, not quite sure of what else he could say.
Then, a thought occurred to him. He could use this damsel-in-distress thing to his advantage. Lull Skyler in. Then, he'd go in for the kill. A tiny, barely-there smirk fluttered over his face like a dragonfly. "I'm not quite used to people... y'know, being nice to me like this," he said quietly. Which, in a sense, was true. He was just exaggerating. But, in spite of his intentions, a genuine sense of thanks lilted his tone...

IS IT TRUE THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS THIS BREATHTAKING? you're smart and you're willing , [/i] [/size] `` M Y G O D T H I S I S K I L L I N G M E ,,[/font][/center] Skyler's eyes kept making their way back to Ray. He was trying not to stare, but it was hard around someone like him. From under his lashes, he could see Ray's thumb inside his belt loop and his mind had very few clean thoughts running around. He wondered if he was going to make it out of this elevator alive. Inside of him, his heart was racing at the idea of what was going on in this elevator. It was supposed to be a short ride, and it felt like it was being stretched out into oblivion. Maybe this elevator ride wasn't as innocent as he led himself to believe. He was a little bit naive and oblivious when someone wanted him. He made his way to lock onto Ray's eyes and see what he was looking at so intently. He was definitely being undressed with his eyes, and the weird part was he didn't mind. "Good. It's one of my more endearing qualities."
He was really curious about his name, since he obviously knew Skyler's name. All his thoughts had stopped when the elevator did. This wasn't actually happened; it couldn't be. It kind of ruined the moment he'd been having with Ray just a few seconds ago. He would have to take the elevator today instead of the stairs. He looked over at the man who looked like he was about to have an anxiety attack right in front of him. He wasn't a fan of elevators breaking down, and this was a first for him, but he was not going to lose it in front of this guy.
Without thinking, he'd knelt down next to him because in some weird way he wanted to comfort him. There was no reason he really needed to be worried. His hand fell to Ray's shoulder without his consent, and he had to keep it from moving down his body. Skyler had always been the nice, comforting, genuine, sweet guy that people liked to keep around. This was a side he didn't want to show because it made it easy for people to walk all over him like they had in the past. Starting this new job was about starting a new life where he would have some sort of thick skin. He never judged anyone for any reason, and he didn't see why he would now. Everyone had fears, and Skyler's fears were actually a little childish. "Anytime," he said, quietly. And, for some reason his hand stayed on Ray's shoulder like it had been magnetized there.
Skyler really didn't know why he was being this nice to him because he didn't even know his name. He'd been talking to him for less than five minutes and here was getting flustered by someone who wouldn't even look at him twice. "Then, I guess you're not used to people like me so you should, you know, get used to it."

Ray used to have that quality... when he was that innocent, blue eyed, freckle-faced ginger with nothing to his name but a pocket full of dreams and a big grin on his face... but, as he had always known, that Ray was long gone. A cloud had floated over that ray of sunlight, and now the harsher one with all of the UV rays packed into it was showing. That cloud was immovable. Not even the best man would be able to change that. It was a depressing thought, really. He'd never be able to truly come back around anyone other than the woman who had seen him bleeding and broken all those years ago... the scar lines all over his back tingled at the memory.
He also admired Sky's ability to be himself. Clearly, he wasn't afraid to show the world who he was and what he wanted. He seemed blunt, yet kind. With those dorky glasses and that caring aura about him... wait, what the hell? What the fuck just came over him? Just because some guy had good qualities didn't mean Ray could go all... gaga eyed over them! He was on a mission, nothing more. He just wanted sex. That was it. He couldn't handle anything else, he couldn't take anything bigger. A real, honest to God relationship was completely out of the question. Relationships only ended in blinding hurt, mistrust, and a few nights of sleeping on the couch... or sleeping with your ex lover's old shirt tucked under your arm... That horrible pain wasn't something Ray wanted to go through again.
Ray's black, fringed bangs framed his pale face, his dark lashes lowered to the ground as he continued to stare at his wringing hands. Sky hadn't moved from his position, his hand still on his shoulder. Maybe if he just concentrated on trying to get Skyler completely naked and begging for him, he wouldn't need to think about these unnecessary and pesky emotions that were slowly starting to fill his belly. He looked at the journalist, wetting his lips. That suave glint was back in his argent eyes. Sky spoke, and Ray rolled his eyes just a bit before smirking a little. It was shakier than his normal leer, but it was still there, at least. "As I'm sure that you're not used to people like me," he suddenly said, turning his body so that their faces were mere centimeters apart. He rose a dark eyebrow and tilted his head to the side. Automatically, he could feel that sense of claustrophobia, that heart-stopping panic slowly melt away from the distraction. Sky made a very, very good distraction. "So you should... you know... get used to it."
[/b] His voice was a taunting, dark purr as he continued to leer up at him before he suddenly stood, waiting for Sky to follow. the word count idk the ensemble here!the entourage skyler/izzie <3 out of character lol ray's a sexual predator [/blockquote][/size][/blockquote][/font]

IS IT TRUE THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS THIS BREATHTAKING? you're smart and you're willing , [/i] [/size] `` M Y G O D T H I S I S K I L L I N G M E ,,[/font][/center] Skyler had never met anyone before that had been so terrified of a broken down elevator. The thing about Skyler is that he's always been really cool, calm, collected and very mellow. He usually knows how to handle himself in situations. He was rational and thought most things through before he actually did them. He couldn't change what was going on in the elevator, so he knew that freaking out about it wasn't going to do him any good. Of course, Skyler hadn't always been this person. As expected, he'd changed over the years and did what he could to better himself. The person that most people saw when they looked at him had changed the most in the last year. Most people didn't know what he'd been through, and he always planned on keeping it that way.
The only person he knew how to be was himself. He'd always felt like such a fake even when he told a little, white lie. Lies were bad, and he was a terrible liar anyways. He ended up doing something awkward like laughing hysterically. God, he wished he would've remembered his contacts this morning. Sadly, that was the one thought running through his head right now. He didn't want to look like the dorky guy in a skinny tie with his hand on this man's shoulder. He kept catching himself staring at him like he was trying read through that facade of his, and figure him out. Skyler couldn't even figure himself out, much less someone else that he didn't even know. As much as he'd like to be ravaged by this man, he wanted more. That wast he problem with getting what he wanted; he always craved more.
Why he kept his hand were it rested was beyond him. He might've done it just so he could touch him, or because he wanted to comfort him. He told himself it was a mixture of both. This is exactly what he'd been trying to avoid; over-analyzing every little thing into make it look like something bigger. There was no way someone like Ray would want someone like him. "Exactly. And, I still don't even know your name," he said with a slight smile, looking down at him. His heart started racing again when they were just a few inches apart and he was sure his knees would buckle at any moment. "I... think I can do that." His voice was quiet, raspy and more than likely filled with lust. Skyler stood much shorter than the man next to him.

It was now a bit easier for him to breathe, and the panic was rolling off of his shoulders like droplets of water. He was getting back in the game. And it was obvious to him that he was making this guy feel out of his element. Maybe he was even breaking the man down into a bundle of quivering nerves... if he wasn't there already, he was going to be close soon. The thought of this guy, Skyler, pinned up against a wall, body trembling in anticipation, wide eyes gazing up at him in a mixture of submission and fear... the mere image made Ray's lips curl into a predatory smirk.
However, he still wasn't totally back yet -- for some reason, he was getting thrown off of his groove just because of that warm, strong hand resting on his shoulder. Why? It was just a kind gesture, didn't mean shit to him... but that was it exactly. It was a kind gesture. He just couldn't wrap his head around a kind action like that. He wasn't used to it. Not one that felt real, at least. All of the kind things Joe did for him so long ago... those were never real. He doubted that anything that man did or said had ever been real... Sky spoke, and Ray blinked for a moment to clear the haze around him before smirking. "My name, hanh?" he asked in a sultry tone, tilting his head to the side even closer than before, absolutely devouring that nervous glance coming from the man he spoke to. "It's... Ray." He stood and continued to prowl closer and closer to Sky, each step getting slower and more pronounced. He continued to move closer until he had the shorter man backed up against one of the walls. He leered down at Sky, the tone in the man's voice sending silent shivers down Ray's spine. He didn't let the sudden nerves vibrating in his body slow his movements down, however. His hands both came up to rest on either side of Sky's head, pinning the man in without even touching him. His body curled inward a little, creating a sort of shield so their faces would be level. "And by the time we're done in this elevator... it'll be a name you'll never forget," he mumbled, the very same, sexy sneer still resting on his pale features.

It was too difficult to worry about the elevator actually being stuck and broken down with everything else that was going on. He definitely hadn't been put in a situation like this. If he could just grab hold of his nerves and tell them to calm down then he might be okay. On the inside, he was going crazy and he didn't know what he looked like on the outside. The very thought of being trapped in this elevator with Ray was kind of exciting in a way, but terrifying at the same time. He really didn't know what to think and that's when he decided that any thinking at this point went out the window as soon as that elevator stopped.
What exactly had been going through his mind when he decided to touch him was beyond Skyler. What was that about, anyways? He didn't even know the man's name and here he was touching him. It was such a natural thing for him to be this kind and comforting, but he felt like he needed to back off a little or this guy was going to glare at him until he broke down or something. He knew that some people weren't used to his ways, but it's not like he can change that or anything. It's just the kind of person he is, and if he was crossing a line then he should be told. "Yeah, your name..." he said, trailing off a little. His eyes were full of something. It might've been lust, or another familiar emotion like that. "Ray." He just felt like saying his name and he liked the way it sounded. Before he knew it, Sky's back hit the back of the elevator and he looked up at Ray. His breath started to labor, taking deep breaths so his knees wouldn't buckle and he wouldn't fall down to his knees. "Make me remember you," he said in a light, raspy voice.

The way Skyler said his name was somehow enough to make the man's pupils dilate and skin burn. Fuck, what was he, anyway? Some sort of pussy? Ray shouldn't be getting so flustered, so easily affected just by the way a man talks to him... He hasn't been feeling like this since Joe -- but that didn't mean jack shit, of course. He didn't even know this kid. He just wanted his quick sex fix so he could distract himself and not remember that he was trapped in a metal box of death. It was his job to not get emotionally attached -- all he was meant to do is radiate of sensual energy and bed as many men as he could to try and get Joe's face out of his mind's eye. It seemed like it was burned into his retinas. Every time he blinked, there was that face, that snarling, angry looking, ungrateful --
He gave a blink when Sky spoke. It snapped him out of his self-induced trance, and the sex-promising smirk fluttered right back onto his face, almost to the point where it was a leer. Sky's voice was raspy, lust-filled... just where Ray wanted him. "That sounds like a challenge, little gazelle," he purred. A gazelle. That was what Sky reminded him of -- some little, helpless, flight animal that was trapped by a panther. The panther being himself, of course. His head lowered so his breath hit gently against Skyler's ear. His tongue snaked out quickly to give a gentle lick at his ear before pulling away teasingly. Instead of looking back up to see Sky's reaction, however, he moved to the man's neck and licked one long, hot stripe up to his jawline. He could feel Sky's pulse pounding underneath his tongue... that almost made a tiny sound rumble through his throat -- almost. He didn't make too much noise when he wasn't naked. However, when he knew that he had a man trapped fully, he would moan like an absolute whore. Hey, who cares? As long as he was doing his job, he had a damn right to enjoy it.
His hand moved from the wall to Sky's face. He lifted his head as his fingertips gently brushed over the man's cheek. He leaned in and let the tips of their noses brush together before licking a stripe across the seam of Sky's lips. That was as close to a kiss as Ray would ever be willing to give.

IS IT TRUE THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS THIS BREATHTAKING? you're smart and you're willing , [/i] [/size] `` M Y G O D T H I S I S K I L L I N G M E ,,[/font][/center] Ray's name was short, simple, and easy to remember. Ray, however, was not in any way short or simple. It's not that he was easy to remember, but he was hard to forget. Skyler was different from him. He was in, fact, short and simple in a way. He looked simple, or so he thought. But, Skyler as a person wasn't simple. He knew that he was pretty damn complex and hard to understand at times. Not that he was standing here, hoping that Ray would somehow take the time to understand him. He didn't even know the guy, and he didn't even know if he wanted to. Okay, that was a little bit of a white lie. He did want to because of just how attracted he was to him. But, who wouldn't be? All he could think about was how close Ray was standing to him and how he could maybe get out of this situation. It wasn't that he didn't want to be backed up against the elevator wall, letting Ray ravage him, but he wanted more. He never did well with one-time things, and he imagined that this is what would happen.
Skyler didn't know where this sudden, newfound confidence sprang from, but he kind of liked it. It was just different for him because he wasn't exactly bold when it came to expressing what he wanted. He knew it was hard to hide how he felt now. It was practically written all over his face and in his voice, he imagined. "Gazelle. I like that," he said back, quietly. He did enjoy the challenges, though. Before he could wonder if Ray was up to a challenge, his question was answered when he felt Ray's tongue against his ear. "Mmm," he moaned lightly when he felt more of Ray's tongue. He was realizing by this that there were other places he'd like to feel Ray's tongue. There was something about the way he was doing it that was driving him absolutely crazy. Ray was definitely teasing him by getting as close as he possibly could without actually kiss him. There weren't a lot of people that he'd let get away with that, but if he could drive him this crazy before barely touching him he could only imagine how it would go after this.
