As the limo came to a stop in front of "The Ivy", the paps swarmed around the back door. My foot was bouncing like crazy. Jason laid his hand on my knee to make it stop moving. "What's wrong, babe?" Jason asked me with a concerned look on his face. "You would think that by now, I would be used to them, but they still make me nervous." I gestured out the window to the flashing cameras and their owners. Jason smiled. "Hey, it's okay. Just when you step out of the car, smile, grab my arm and we'll walk to the restaurant. If they call your name, just keep going, and don't let them get to you with their questions. They want you to react, so don't, okay?"

Before I had a chance to respond, the driver had opened the back door. Nate got out first, then helped Hayley out. Shane, then, got out and helped Jordie out, then, Jason glided to the door, turned to look at me, and smiled, "You ready?" No, of course not!!! My mind was screaming at him and,of course, he was out the door before I could say anything. Two seconds later, after he got out and waved to the fans and paps, he extended his hand back into the limo, "Hey, you can do this." He's right. I can do this. I've done it before and I'll most likely have to do it again. I took a deep breath before placing my small hand into his strong and calloused one. I swung my feet so I could set them on the ground. Jason lightly pulled on my hand to help me up. I stepped up off the asphalt and onto the sidewalk on shaky legs. Apparently, Jason had seen my unsteadiness and he quickly wrapped his arm around my waist. I instantly felt better.

As we made our way to the front door, I could hear the fans screaming their love proclamations to each of the boys, causing each one to smile a little bigger and I think I saw Nate blush, wait a minute, yup, he's blushing. A moment later, I heard the paps starting to direct their questions to Jason. "Jason, how's the relationship going?" Uh, obviously well, because here we are, together, duh! "Have you broke your purity promise?" Ha! That's laughable. I know for a fact that Jason would not break that promise so easily, and, of course, I wore a purity ring as well. "Jason! Is it true that your cheating on her with one of your cast mates from 'Camp Rock'?" Okay, that one stopped me dead in my tracks. I turned my head to look at Jason, my eyes wide, begging for and explanation. He urged me forward as he leaned his forehead on my temple. "I would never, ever cheat on you. I love you and only you, please promise me that you will never forget that." He whispered in my ear. His voice held a pleading tone, that proved to me that what they were saying was indeed false. Plus, ever since we have met, we haven't been away from each other much, and when he is away, he is with his brothers, working. So, I turned my head and kissed him as we made it to the doors. As I pulled away, I whispered back, "I'll never forget." He smiled that wonderful smile and pulled me closer.

Shane and Nate were speaking with the maitre d', when Jason and I, goofy smiles and all, made it inside. Shane turned around, "Our table is ready." I saw Nate hold his arm out for Hayley, "Mademoiselle?", turning on that "Gray" charm that all three of them seem to have. This caused Hales to blush as she took his arm and they walked behind the maitre d'. Shane and Jordie were right on Nate and Hales' tail as, I know, Shane was probably wanting to get to the table to get some food into Jordie before she got really grumpy. Jason and I followed the others.

We had to pass the bar to get to our table. We were almost at the opposite end of the bar when I heard some one call my name. Oh, no! Please don't belong to who I think you belong to. "Trish? I thought that was you." Great. Wait, what am I stressing about? I was standing there with my boyfriend, who just happens to be an international rock star. "Hi, Ryan. How are you doing?" I responded as soon as Ryan has reached were Jason and I were standing. "I'm good, thanks. Who's this?" His voice went from pleasant to hateful in two seconds when he saw whose arm I was on. "Oh, I'm sorry, Jason, this is Ryan Bradley, my ex. Ryan, this is my boyfriend, Jason Gray." Jason smiled, extending his hand. "It's nice to meet you." Reluctantly, Ryan stuck his hand out to Jason's so he could shake it. Jason gripped it very firmly and shook it hard. Ryan laughed nervously as Jason let his hand go; he was shaking it, trying to get the feeling back into it. "Quite a grip you got there." Ryan said nervously. "Thanks, I work out." Jason replied, making Ryan gulp.

"RYAN! Just when I thought you were out of our lives for good!" Jordie exclaimed, false happiness leaking from her voice. "It's good to see you too, Jord." He said, making Jordie roll her eyes. "Hey, sweet cheeks, are you still single? Because I was wondering..." Oh my God! He has some nerve! Asking one of my best friends out in front of me!
"Actually, buddy, she's not." Shane said angrily. "Oh, and who are you?" Ryan asked. As if he didn't know. This is Connect 3! "I'm her boyfriend, Shane Gray." Shane replied, and then he kissed Jordie's temple, making her blush. Ryan sighed and turned his attention to Hayley.

"What about you, Hayles? You single?" He asked her. Hayley pondered for a moment. "Well, actually..." "She's taken." Nate replied, cutting her off. Hayley raised her eyebrows in shock. "I am?" She asked. Nate smiled and turned her around to look into her eyes. "Yes you are. You're mine." He said. Hayley smiled. "I'm yours." She whispered. Nate leaned down and pressed his lips to hers. FINALLY! Ryan glared and I smiled sweetly at him.

"Well, all the girls here are taken. So, who did you come here with?" I asked. "Tess." He replied monotonically. Ha! I like how this has turned around. As if on queue, Tess Tyler in all of her fake bleach blondness came and wrapped one of her perfectly manicured claws possessively around Ryan's midsection. "Ry-Ry! What's the holdup?" Tess whined. I cleared my throat, and she squealed.

"Oh my god! Trisha Davis! It's been forever!" She exclaimed as she pulled my body to her skeletal one. "I miss you SO much! Why is it that we ever stopped talking to each other?" A chill ran up my spine at her shrill voice and I pulled away from her. "Um, because I caught you sleeping with Ryan while he was supposed to be with me!" I whispered-yelled at her. I took a deep breath. "But, now, I'm with someone now that will treat me with the respect that I deserve. Come on, guys." I turned expertly on my heel, grabbed Jason's arm, who was grinning from ear to ear, and we walked away leaving Tess and Ryan speechless.

I received mixed reactions when we got to our table. They were happy that I stood up to them but they were also worried because I hadn't told anyone that tidbit of information. After the appetizers, I excused my self to the ladies' room. I had made it to the hallway that led to the restrooms when he grabbed me. "Ryan? What the hell?" I yelled at him. "Trisha, babe, you don't belong..." I cut him off. "If you don't want to walk away from here limping or hobbling, I'd suggest you didn't finish that sentence." And yet, he kept going. "Trisha, I made a huge mistake when I let you slip though my fingers. Please come back to me. I love you." OH, HELL NO, HE DIDN'T!! "Ryan, I.." What the hell?!?! He's kissing me!! I tried to push him off of me but he just pushed me against the wall and pinned me there. I struggled unsuccessfully against his strong grip, but I couldn't get out. His lips started moving from my lips, across my jaw and down my neck, and then he started to suck.

"Get off of me!" I pleaded. Ryan shook his head. "No, I let you go once, and I promised myself I never would again." He said against my skin. He started grinding his hips against mine and I lost it. The tears were flowing and I sobbed uncontrollably. One of his hands were heading for the hem of my dress. I thought that he was never going to be stopped, until I heard, "Get away from her!!" Jason had come looking for me and had found us. He yanked Ryan off me and I collapsed to the ground. Jason was pounding Ryan's face in when Shane and Jordie came into the hallway. While Shane was trying to pull his brother off of Ryan, which I doubt he could, Jordie had pulled me into her lap, trying to console me but I was broken. Through my tears, I could see the restaurant security had helped Shane get Jason separated from Ryan. Jason screamed, "I want him arrested for sexual harassment." The guards led Ryan away in cuffs. Jason stood completely still, his hands clenched so tight, his knuckles were white. Shane finally got Jason to snap out of his enraged stupor. The second he did, he was by my side. I was still laying on the floor, with my head in Jordie's lap. Jason scooped me up bridal-style and held me tight to his chest. "Shane, call our car and tell him to meet us at the back door. Jord, go get Nate and Hayley. We're leaving now." After Shane and Jordie walked away, Jason spoke to me, "Every thing's going to be fine." And that was the last thing I heard before everything went black.
