Gillian turned around. "Mateo!" she screamed.

"Jumpy!" Mateo laughed.

"Why wouldn't I be jumpy, when it feels like the world is after me!" Gillian cried.

"I love Jake, but oh Mateo, I'm so glad that it's you", she continued.

Mateo allowed Gillian to hold on to him.

"What happened that got you so upset?" asked Mateo.

"Jake asked me to marry him, and I said no", answered Gillian.

"Could Ryan have anything to do with this?" asked Mateo.

"Who else?!?" Gillian cried. "And now he's with your fiancée…eek…I know they are friends…I know she loves him too, that's she's worried too but…"

"She is?" asked Mateo in surprise. "Why isn't she at WRCW?" "And why should she be worried?"

"Ryan, almost died last night", said Becca in tears.

"Liza agreed to show a clip show if we don't get back in time", answered Scott.

"Oh my God", asked Mateo, "What happened?"

"No one seems to know!" cried Gillian.

Mateo gave Gillian hug. So did Scott and Becca.

Back at Ryan's room…

"So Gillian was here all night?" asked Hayley.

"Yes", Ryan said in a big smile.

"Aww…you know what I have always said about not giving up!" informed Hayley.

"Ha!" laughed Ryan.

"Now, you be good", ordered Hayley, "I have to get back to WRCW, but I'll be back. But if you Gillian have something else in mind, I won't interfere…"

Hayley kiss Ryan on the forehead and left the room.

"Mateo?" called Hayley.

"Yeah, it's me", returned Mateo. "How's Ryan?"

"He good, told, me he would be better if Gillian comes back", said Hayley in smile.

Becca's eye's lit up.

"You two are getting back together! That's Great!" she beamed.

Yeah, but what about Jake?

Back at WRCW….

Half asleep, Leo walks in the studio about an hour late.

"Where were, you?" asked Liza.

"Bed", answered Leo. "I have been up all night!"

"You too?" asked Liza.

"Yeah", answered Leo, who was just about to collapse himself.

But Greenlee caught him.

"Whoa there Leo! I thought we had a date?" inquired Greenlee.

"What?" Leo exclaimed.

"Oh, come on silly, you remember, with Ryan".
