Keanu Reeves is continuing his reign as one of the kindest stars in Hollywood.

In an excerpt published Friday by Entertainment Weekly of her book “Say Everything: A Memoir,” actor Ione Skye revealed she found it “hard not to stare” at Reeves while they were filming 1986′s “River’s Edge” — and that she even started “stalking” him around his trailer.

Skye wrote she eventually stopped by his apartment in hopes of a fling, only for Reeves to announce he was going to take a shower after she tried to kiss him. Skye said she boldly followed, however, and positioned herself between Reeves and his running shower head.

“I zeroed in on his beautiful throat, sucking and making out with it,” she wrote, per EW. “He made a low, growly noise and I felt my stomach turn nicely. ‘Oh,’ I heard myself say. The room was thick with steam, my wet T-shirt sticking to me, wanting to be peeled off.”

Reeves had yet to establish himself as a bona fide action star, but he was six years older than Skye — then a teenager. She recalled trying to unbuckle his belt when he grabbed her wrist and kindly informed her he didn’t want to take things further.

“I broke out with a quick, shocked laugh. ‘Sorry!’” Skye recalled in her book, per EW. “‘No, don’t be,’ said Keanu, releasing my wrist. We were still stuck together, breathing hard. I pressed my face, red from the kiss and now embarrassment, into his chest.”

She then marveled at his grace, noting: “Even the way he’d rejected me was charming.”

Skye added that Reeves not only offered her a dry shirt afterwards, but came up to her on set the next day to “let me know he didn’t blame me for trying.”

Skye remains best known for her performance in 1989’s “Say Anything” opposite John Cusack, and while she didn’t manage to bed Reeves, she revealed in her memoir that Cusack was more than game. Years after shooting “Say Anything,” Skye said they slept together, reportedly writing in her memoir: “I had to get it out of my system.”
