A/N: So there's a reason why this is happening.
The smile quickly turned into expression of confusion and anger. Without saying "hello" Ryan turned and stormed out of the diner.
Natalia watched as Ryan left the diner, biting down on her lower lip, tears welling up in her eyes. He's mad. Well what do you think? You been gone for 5 years without any explanation! She thought and a little voice in her head answered.
"Mommy?" Allie tugged on Natalia's sleeve "What's wrong?"
She asked, confusion in her brown eyes. Natalia sighed, sneaking one look at Ryan who just to his luck, walked out into the beginning of a storm.
"Nothing. Come on. We gotta get back to the house early so that we can get the place back into living said, and the two trotted out before Natalia.
"Hello." Hallie smiled to Ryan, pulling on the hood of her pink coat, hugging her stuffed cat closer to her, away from the rain. Allie waved at him, grinning. Ryan smiled back a bit, slightly awed by how they looked a lot like Natalia.
"Hey." Natalia said, Ryan perked up a bit, but realized that she was talking to the twins. "Go wait in the car." She said handing them the keys of the rental car, and the two ran off, Hallie the only one avoiding the puddles. Allie made a show of stepping into every one of them. "ALESSANDRA BOA VISTA! WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT JUMPING IN PUDDLES?" Natalia yelled across the parking lot, and Allie blushed, hiding her face. "Sorry mommy!" She said, and hid in the car.
"Why didn't you tell me that you wanted to break it off? You just wanted to disappear for 5 years and then appear out of nowhere?" Ryan spat, though his little voice told him that Natalia had a reason. He didn't care- did he?- because Natalia told him that their relationship was based of trust, and she didn't tell him why she was gone! He feared the worst; the she was dead, a slave in Mexico- the works and here she is!
"Ryan, you know that I wouldn't do that!" Natalia said, hurt by his accusations. One, he didn't even ask what happened; two, why would he accuse her like that? He knew that she loved.
"Why you have good reason?" Ryan asked, Natalia staring at him with a tad of disgust.
"Yes, I do actually." Natalia said.
"Lovely. Where ever you found your new boyfriend, I bet he's wonderful." Ryan said, Natalia now on the verge of tears. He was trying to crack her, but that wasn't like him. Not like the sweet Ryan she knew. Probably the Ryan she knew went MIA like she did.
"You know what Wolfe!" Natalia spat, Ryan slightly burnt by her calling him "Wolfe". "Forget it! Forget everything!" Natalia said whipping the engagement ring that was tarnished from the 5 years into the gutter, before storming off.
And the reason is that I love drama.
