A/N: Sorry it's taken forever, guys. It was really hard to squeeze this one out but I managed! One more to go and then it's onto the next, and possibly final, story in this series! I hope you like it, keep the reviews coming!

Jen and Andy woke up next to each other the next morning in his bed. She rubbed her eyes and they looked at each other, he laughed.

"What's so funny, Portman?" She asked and he looked at her.

"Nothing," he shook his head and she gave him a look. "This," he said. "Us."

"How is that funny?" She asked, her eyebrow raised.

"It's just, I mean, when we were together we never…" he trailed and she nodded. "That was our first time."

She laughed. "Did I live up to your expectation?"

"You bet," he nodded. "It's just weird, I guess."

"Weird for you because you have a girlfriend," she said and he looked at her. "I still love Aidan but in my head, we're broken up so it's not like I was cheating on anyone…"

"Yeah," he nodded. "I didn't really think of that."

"Andy," she sighed. "She went away for the summer and you even said she hadn't been returning your phone calls, right?" He looked at her. "So, it's not that bad…"

"I've been cheated on, Jen, I know how it feels," he shook his head. "I can't believe I did it."

"It's my fault," she said. "I knew you had a girlfriend, I shouldn't have-"

"No," he shook his head. "It's no one's fault but mine," he said and she nodded, awkwardly. "But I think it would be better if we kept this between us."

"Yeah, of course," she nodded. They heard a knock on the door and the both sat up, nervously.

"I'm home early!" Alex came walking in with a suitcase but stopped when she looked up. "Oh my God," she said, her eyes filling with tears. "Oh my God!"

"Alex, it's not what it looks like!" Andy said, collecting his clothes.

She shook her head and quickly walked out. Andy sat back on the bed and sighed.

"Aren't you gonna go after her?" Jen asked and he shook his head.

"What's the point?" He asked. "I know Alex; this isn't something that I'll be forgiven for."

"I'm sorry," she said and he looked at her.

"It was bound to happen, I guess," he shrugged.

Back in Rome, Sophia was getting ready to go home.

"Can you give us a minute?" She asked Isabella and Massimo as they all stood outside of the dorms. They nodded and went inside. She turned to Jared and he sighed. "This can't be what you want."

"Sophia," he sighed again.

"No, Jared, I'm not leaving here without knowing if this is what you really want," she said and he looked at her. "I'm sorry Ryan came here and I'm sorry for everything that happened but… I don't want to leave you!"

"I don't want you to leave either," he shook his head. "But all this stuff with Ryan and talking with Isabella made me realize that maybe we're just not right for each other."

"Don't say that, Jared," she shook her head, holding in tears. "I love you."

"I love you too," he nodded. "I just wish it was enough," he said and she swallowed. "You should probably go… you wouldn't want to miss your flight."

"Yeah," she nodded, looking at him. "When will I see you again?"

"I don't know," he shook his head and she closed her eyes. He brought his hand up to caress her cheek. "Listen to me, you go to USC and you do your thing, okay?" He said and she looked into his eyes. "You're gonna be great, Mendoza."

"Not without you," she whispered and he sighed. She took a moment to compose herself and then looked at him. "Goodbye Jared."

She grabbed her bags and got into the cab waiting for her, not looking back.

Later that night in Minnesota, Andria was at the beach. It seemed like every night there was a party but this time, she wasn't going to have a good time. She was going to find Vince.

She spotted him near the water, talking to a bunch of girls. She frowned and walked over to him, pulling him aside.

"What the hell are you doing, Vince?" She asked and he looked at her.

"I was having a conversation with my friends until you rudely pulled me away," he said and she narrowed her eyes at him.

"You know what I mean," she said. "I thought you wanted to be with me."

"Wanted, as in the past, as in I don't want to be with you anymore," he said, coldly and she shook her head.

"You know, all this time I thought I was the one who was scared, that I was the one blocking out love but really, it's you," she said and he looked at her. "It's all you."

"What do you want me to say?" He asked and she sighed.

"Nothing," she shook her head. "Absolutely nothing," she said, walking off. "Have fun being miserable!" She shouted, walking back to her car.

Vince sighed and shoved his hands in his pockets, he had really messed up this time.

Jen finally went home later that night and was surprised to find Aidan sitting on her couch.

"Where have you been?" He asked, standing up. "I've been waiting here all day!"

"I've been out," she said, defensively. "What the hell are you doing here?"

"Jen, look, I love you and I'm sorry for everything I did," he said and she sighed. "I never meant to hurt you."

"But you did." She nodded.

"I said I was sorry, what else do you want me to say?" He asked and she laughed.

"Sorry is not going to fix the fact that you abandoned me when I thought I was pregnant!" She shouted.

"Oh, don't be so dramatic," he said and she frowned. "I was there for you."

"Not when I needed you to come to the doctor's with me, not when I needed you most, Aidan!" She told him. "I was so scared Aidan, and I didn't have my boyfriend there to tell me that everything was going to be okay."

"Jen, I don't know how many times I have to say I'm sorry, I messed up big time, I know that, okay?" He said and she looked at him. "Just, please say you forgive me."

"I can't," she shook her head. "But you know what? I haven't been completely on my own since we first got together so maybe I should take some time," she said and he looked at her. "I think we should spend the rest of the summer apart, we'll both be in L.A by September so we can figure everything out then."

"You're sure about this?" He asked and she nodded slowly. "Fine, but if you change your mind… you know where to reach me."

She nodded and watched him go.

Later that night, Andy had found out the hotel that Alex was staying at through one of her friends and went there. He knew he had screwed up, big time and that Alex would probably never forgive him but he wanted to show her that he was going to fight for her.

He knocked on the door and she opened it. When she saw that it was him, she immediately slammed the door in his face.

"Alex, please," he sighed. "Just let me explain."

She opened the door again, this time with a little more fury and stepped outside. He looked at her, hopeful, but all she did was slap him hard across the face.

He held onto his face and then looked up at her. "I guess I deserved that."

"I should've known you were going to do this to me!" She yelled. "You did it to your own brother – twice! Why wouldn't you do it to me?"

"Look, Alex, I know you're upset-"

"Upset? I'm furious Andy!" She told him and he nodded. "I gave you everything, I trusted you with everything and then to go and do this… I just, I can't believe it!" She cried and he lowered his eyes. "You and Sophia deserve each other!"

He looked up at her. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"Just go, please," she shook her head. "I know you're still in love with her, do you think I'm an idiot?" She asked and he looked at her. "Go be with her, I know that's what you want."

"I want you," he stepped towards her but she backed away. "Alex…"

"I never want to see you again." She said and went back inside her hotel room, slamming the door once again.

Andy sighed and went to his car, not knowing what to do now.
