Editors Note: I'm back from vacation! Procrastinating my make-up homework for making this new chapter is worth it. Thank you for the reviews while I was gone. I enjoyed reading them when I got back!

John basically stormed into the room without knocking. I saw Torrie run into the bathroom and hide. Why she wouldn't face him, I'll never know.
"I dumped him in public you idiot! That's why I hid!"
"Shush and let me continue!"
As I was saying, Torrie ran and hid in the bathroom. I sighed and looked at John. He was toe to toe with me. A little too close for comfort. I looked back and saw Ashley running down the halls crying. At this point I was hurting. I was slowly realizing that what I had done was wrong. But my ego wouldn't let that get through my brain. Suddenly John pushed me over onto the couch.
"What the hell did you do to my fiancée to make her leave me?!"
He jumped on me and started to punch me. Luckily, I pushed him off in time and backed away.
"I didn't do shit! It's not my fault she left you for me!"
"I don't believe that for one second!"
John pushed me up to the wall with one hand. In the other he was still holding Torrie's ring. It was a really good ring I'll tell you. Anyways, He was gathering tears in his eyes. 'Oh god here comes the guilt trip' I thought to myself.
"I loved Torrie more I had loved any other woman. We were perfectly content until you got back into the picture. You and Ashley were perfect enough. But you had to go ruin my life didn't you? Now my heart is broken and I was publicly humiliated in front of millions. You better fix this. Give Torrie back and apologize to Ashley. Torrie is mine."
John was looking straight into my eyes. I could tell he was…
"Wait. John said I was his?"
"Well yeah. He loved you deep man."
Torrie sat in thought. She never knew John loved her that much! God she felt worse then she did before this session.
"Are you done Ms. Wilson?"
"Uh…yeah. Keep going Randy."
So I could tell he was going to break down any second. Just like I was on time, he backed away and burst into tears. I felt really bad for John. I knew he was very in love with Torrie, but that didn't stop me for getting what I wanted. I spoke in a very calm voice to him.
"Look John. Torrie wasn't happy in the relationship. I wasn't gonna stand back and watch her be miserable. I had to save her John. Don't you see? She loved you, no doubt about that. Just not was much as you wanted her to. You have to believe me John. I never meant to hurt you."
OK so I lied there. I knew I was going to hurt him. But what else could I do? That would have happened even if you tried to avoid it! John opened his hand and stared at the ring. He threw the ring at me but missed me by a foot at least. I tried so hard not to laugh. He usually had better aim then that! But then again, he could barely see though all those tears. John finally got up and pointed to the ring.
"Since she's yours, the ring is yours. I'll never be happy for you. Burn in hell."
Just like that he walked out and slammed the door. I saw Torrie peek out of the door. I looked at the ring on the floor. I sat on the couch to evaluate the situation. I got the girl of my dreams. But I broke a heart and turned on my best friend in the process. Was it worth it?
"So you started doubting your relationship that night?"
"Yeah I guess so."
"Did you Ms. Wilson?"
Torrie looked to Dr. Dave from the spot on the wall she was looking at. She looked a little confused. She was still thinking about John calling her 'his.'
"What's the question?"
"Were you doubting your relationship that first night?"
"Well not fully, but a little."
Dr. Dave wrote on his clipboard for a while. Randy looked at Torrie who went back to staring at the spot on the wall. Randy felt his phone vibrate from his back pocket. He took it out to see who was calling? Why was Ashley calling him?
"Ash?"
"Yeah it's me."
"What are you calling for?"
"I want to call a truce."
"Well I'm glad you do. When and where?"
"I'll decide that."
Then Ashley hung up. Randy looked at the phone confused, but finally snapped his phone shut. He put it back into his back pocket. By this time, Dr. Dave was done writing.
"So from what I have you both were having doubts that first night."
"Good job genius."
"See what I had to put up with?"
Randy rolled his eyes. Yeah it was childish, but he was fed up with this! He wanted to punch the doctor in the face and leave. No, he wanted to go back in time and avoid this whole mess. But he knew he couldn't. Dr. Dave continued on.
"Let's skip some things. Let's go to your first encounter with John Ms. Wilson."
Randy looked over at Torrie. She was twiddling her thumbs. Randy couldn't help but notice that Torrie had a ring on her ring finger. It was her old ring John threw at him! Had she picked it up that night? Torrie saw that Randy was growing mad.
"Can I request a break?"
"Not till I hear this story."
Torrie looked down at her hands. The ring! She still had it on! She hit herself on the head. Thankfully, not one of the guys noticed. She sat there fir a while to gather her thoughts. When she got everything together, she started.
"I saw him when I walked out of…"
