He stumbled out of the bar; tripping over his own feet and ending up on the pavement. He had to see her. He had to tell her how much she meant to him.
"Ryan come back inside." The Cuban shouted to his friend.
"I can't I have to see her."
"Ryan one more drink and you'll forget about her."

"Stop being such an idiot Ryan! You know how much I want my parents to know about us! You can be so selfish at times!"
"Cal I only said that maybe we could reschedule for Saturday! I would love to meet your parents and I would love them to know about us too. I just think that a Friday night isn't the best time."
"See you're putting it off! What are you scared that my dad will ask you about stuff you don't wanna talk about?"
"No not at all. I just think that a Friday night; end of the week, we'll be stressed out with work. Then we have all Saturday to clean the house and cook dinner!"
"In other words Friday night isn't the best time for my parents to come around because it is the end of the week, you wanna get drunk and have sex all night!"
"Calleigh I care about you too much for that…"
"What so you don't want to have sex with me? Don't I please you enough?"
"Cal I never said that…" The blonde stormed out of the gun vault and ran towards the ladies. Ryan decided to go to the one person who could make him feel better.
