Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had
some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She
always belonged to someone else
She always found comfort in him. When it seemed like her life would be over, he always made her believe things would get better. Months ago, when Troy had been abusing her, Gabriella had found safety in Ryan. But even though he had helped her through a lot, she still had no idea that he was in love with her.
I
drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had
you so many times but somehow
I want more
A few months back, when Gabriella had just kicked Troy out of her life for good, she made a call to Ryan.
"Hello?" He answered.
"Ryan… Can you come over? I need you?" You could tell from her voice that she had been crying.
"Of course Gabriella. I'll be right over."
Even though his house was 2 miles away from hers, he dropped whatever he had been doing and rushed over to her house.
"Oh Ryan," she said as he walked into her room, "Why do I feel so horrible about kicking him out after all he's done to me?"
"You were in love with him, Gabriella. That's why."
After he had said that, Gabriella placed her lips onto his. Ryan started to kiss back, but then pulled away.
"Gabriella… I can't do this. You're vulnerable, I can't take advantage of you like that."
I
don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring
rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she
wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved
Through
thick and thin, he would always be there for her. Whether it was
something big, or something little like letting her use his umbrella
when it was pouring down rain.
Tap
on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I
know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore
He always tried to make her feel beautiful. When she was sitting in her sweatpants, without any makeup on, and her hair a mess, he whispered, "You're beautiful, Gabriella."
"You're just saying that." She replied, but she still smiled.
I don't mind spending everyday Look
for the girl with the broken smile I know where you
hide
Out on your corner in the
pouring rain It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's
compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my
door's always open
You can come anytime you want
Ask her if she wants to stay
awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she
will be loved
And she will be loved
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who
you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and
begs me to catch her every time she falls
They had been walking through the park. Today would be the day he would muster up enough courage to tell her those three little words.
"Gabriella… I want to tell you something."
"What?"
"Well… I've been meaning to tell you this for a while now… I'll just come right out and say it. I love you Gabriella."
"Really? You love me?"
"Yes… But I understand if you don't feel the same way."
"Ryan, I love you too."
And with that being said, the two stopped walking and kissed, right there in the middle of the park.
They
didn't know what the future would hold, but they were sure they
would always have each other. I
don't mind spending everyday [in
