Nine: Faltering Silence

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Oh yeah I'm sure you do that's why you thought que paso meant taco is Spanish right?"

"I said dabble, not fluent."

"Señoritas may I interrupt?" Ryan asked

"God right on ahead."

"I'm turning the dial back to English now so I can yell at you."

"Yell at me? Well whatever for?" I asked innocently.

"Don't you try to play the innocent card on me. Justin told us the entire story."

"Busted." My mom chimed in.

"Why didn't you tell me? I could've followed you guys there and rescued you!"

"Chase threatened me. I'm sorry Ryan."It truly was a mistake though because the father I went out to save turned out to be no father at all."

"What you put yours and Justin's life at sake to save your father?"

"So I see Justin didn't mention that part." I sighed. "Dad tried to to kill me in return of his own life being safe."

"That bastard!" I had never seen my mom like this

"Uh yeah, I guess you could say that. Justin saw it right at time or I wouldn't be lying here." I slumped a bit

"Mrs. Sinclair no offense or anything but if I ever find your ex husband I will end his life."

"Oh trust me honey I will dance on his grave, myself." The high-fived each other making me giggle a bit at their lack of human sensibility.

"Oh god you guys are golden." Laughing made my stomach churn. "Oh, shouldn't do that."

"We can leave you to rest if you'd like." Ryan was always so caring and considerate.

"No. No. I've had enough resting. Right now I'd just like to chat with my closest friend." He smiled

"Guess that's my cue to leave then." My mom walked out leaving the two of us alone.

"Well don't just stand there like a brick come sit with me!" I scooted a bit patting the spot next to me.

"Hmmm I've missed spending time with just you." He held my hand.

"I know we haven't really gotten any us time this summer." I sighed

"So what really happened with Chase then?"

"Depends on what Justin told you."

"Huh, well he said that Chase disappeared and then you two escaped, but I find it quite hard to believe that he'd go through all the trouble of chaining you guys and trying to kill you only to run away himself."

"He didn't run away, Ryan, we killed him." I didn't say anything about the blood donation part hoping that to be a coincidence.

"Now he won't be able to hurt you ever again."

"But still I killed a person and the fact that I did it will always haunt me."

"I promise it'll all pass." He gave me a light squeeze. "So now onto more serious matter." He paused to wiggle his eyebrows deviously.

"Oh god I can already feel the subject you're about to bring up."

"So you and Justin, eh?"

"It lasted less than a week oops."

"What?"

"I was just there to pleasure him when Selena's not around."

"You know you don't deserve that? You are so much better than that. Don't let a guy ever treat you that way because you're absolutely gorgeous."

"It's cool I mean I won't stop loving him, but I'll get over it."

"Love? Woah love? You've never said you were in love with a guy before."

"I don't believe in using the word unless I mean it, in this case I do."

"Well then spill the beans." He nudged me

"It's just everything about him. The fact that I'd give my life for him in seconds scares me so much I can't even explain it."

"Looks like you've caught the love bug."

"It was a pretty one sided bite."

"Give it some time you never know."

"He tried to apologize but I don't think I'm ready to forgive him yet." I let out a deep breath "Why does love have to be so bittersweet with him?"

"Because he's a guy. Guys are confusing creatures"

"But Ryan you are a guy."

"I know that." His phone buzzed in his pocket causing him to frown. "It's Justin he needs a few things."

"It's fine, bye Ry." I have him a quick hug before releasing him. "Not a word to Justin about any of this, alright?"

"Okay Scar, my lips are sealed."

|Ryan's POV|

My promise to Scarlett meant absolutely nothing when I walked into Justin's room to see Selena sitting on top of him practically groping him making my blood boil.

"Took you long enough to get here." I stayed quiet. "Selena baby would you give us a moment alone?"

"I'll miss you babe." She said giving him a final sloppy kiss before she left.

"Did you bring my McDonalds?" He asked smiling widely.

I shoved the bag on his chest.

"Woah man why so aggressive?"

"You fucking played her."

"Hey hey can you please keep your voice down Selena's right outside."

"Yeah well guess what? I don't give a shit. You may be my best friend but Scarlett is like a sister to me and if you treat her like crap I'm gonna say something about it!"

"Look at where we are Ryan she tried to get me killed!"

"She tried to get you killed?! Is that why she stabbed herself to save your fucking life?! Is that why she ran and caught you? Is that why she'd be willing to loose her own life in seconds for you?" I was yelling now, but I didn't care. "You're impossible and a liar. You gave her an apology speech only to do this when she's in the same building?" I slammed the door behind my shaking from anger.
