"Rick, get in." I ordered, driving up beside him.

I searched for hours, and I finally found him walking in the pouring rain.

"Go home." He yelled, waving his hand at me.

"I'll go home when you come home." I replied, stopping the truck.

I cursed, pissed off at the stubborn bastard.

I got out of the truck and ran up to him, the rain already soaking me.

"Dude, get out of the rain." I stated, grabbing his arm.

"I realized something today." He replied, turning to face me.

"What?" I asked, moving my wet hair out of my face.

"Despite her bitchiness, I love her. I actually love her," He started. "And then, I looked at you in the back of the church and I realized that you knew that too. Everyone was telling you to stand up, and you didn't. You sat there in misery to please me. You're fùcking crazy." He explained.

I blinked, rain and tears rolling down my face and I was thankful that he couldn't tell that I was crying.

"It's been a year. Last year- last year, was different. You were my everything, and I didn't think I could love someone or anything as much as you. This year, it changed. Everything changed once you left. I wish I could say that I still feel the same, and I'm sorry if I'm hurting you. I'll always care about you, but it's just not the same." He continued.

"I didn't expect you to feel the same." I replied.

He put a hand on my cheek before putting his arm back to his side.

"Why did you have sex with me?" I asked.

"I lied. I was actually drunk." He replied.

"Then why did you lie about being drunk?" I inquired.

"I just wanted your reaction." He replied.

I shook my head before changing the subject.

"Are you coming back or what?" I asked.

He nodded before following me back to the truck.

-

"I can't believe that asshole." Maggie groaned.

"It is what it is." I mumbled.

"You need to get over him. Let's find you a new man." She replied.

"Okay." I replied.

"Okay?" Maggie asked, surprised that I agreed.

"Okay." I repeated.

"Oh my gosh! I know the perfect guy." She replied.

"Wait, what if Rick meant something else. What if you just took it differently? You said he said it wasn't the same. He didn't say he didn't love you." Tara replied.

"Yeah! What if he's being recorded or some shit by Amber?" Maggie asked.

"That's a little far fetched." I replied.

"Okay, fine." She replied.

"I don't know. All I know is that I have to suck it up and go on." I mumbled.

"We'll get down to the bottom of this." Tara replied.

I nodded, walking outside.

-

"What the hell are you doing?" I asked, Rick on my balcony.

"Getting away." He replied, walking into my room.

"Please just go." I begged, pushing him towards my door.

"Shh, we can have a little fun." He slurred, putting a finger on my lips.

"You're drunk." I replied, pushing his hand away.

"I won't remember in the morning, and you don't have to tell." He whispered.

"No. Go have sex with your fiancé." I replied.

"I don't love her." He slurred, flopping onto my bed.

"Yes you do, get off my shit." I replied, opening my bedroom door.

"Where's Tara?" He asked.

"She's with Maggie and Glenn at some party." I answered.

I rolled my eyes, watching him walk out of my room.

-

"Good morning. Have you seen Rick anywhere?" Amber asked, looking as if she came from a grave.

"No, shouldn't he be at your house?" I asked.

Rick was upstairs in my guest room, asleep with a hangover.

"He should." She replied.

I mentally face palmed when Rick came walking into my living room.

"You whore!" Amber yelled, literally tacking me to the floor.

I dodged one of her punches before throwing her off of me before climbing on top of her and punching her in the nose before punching her again, for Judith.

I groaned, being pulled off her by Rick.

"That was for Judith." I snapped, watching Rick help her off of the floor.

"Stupid bitch!" She screamed, running out of my house with tears streaming down her cheeks.

I walked over to the kitchen, spitting blood into the sink from one of her punches.

"Are you okay?" Rick asked, his hand on my back.

"Don't touch me." I replied.
