RAWR. That is all.

Ivy bit her lip as she quickly made her way through the hallway of the hotel. She wanted so badly to stay mad at Ted. She wanted to scream and cry until tears wouldn't fall from her eyes. But their one year anniversary was tomorrow and even though she still wanted to be stubborn about what had happened, she couldn't help but want to give him her gift. It was something that he had wanted for months.
She stood outside his door, unable to knock on the door. She just couldn't get herself to knock on the door. Talking to Ted was something she just wasn't ready for. She placed the box on the floor and knocked on the door. Then she bolted around the corner. She heard the door open, followed by Ted sigh. Then the door shut again. Ivy leaned against the wall and began to cry again.
Ted lay on his bed. He just wanted to talk to Ivy. If he just got the chance to explain to her what happened with Kristen, then she wouldn't be mad.
"Dude I don't know what to do," Ted said. He was currently on the phone with Cody. Cody was the only person Ted could talk to about this. He was the only person who knew about everything that had happened between him and Kristen.
"Have you actually gotten to talk to her?" Cody asked.
"I've tried," Ted said. "But Nikki and Brie have been acting as her personal bodyguards. I can't get a moment alone with her." Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door. He leaped up, hoping it was Ivy. When he opened the door, he saw no one outside. Then he looked down and saw a small neatly wrapped box. Ted sighed as he picked up the box.
"What's wrong?" Cody asked. Ted shut the door and started to open the box as he walked towards his bed. Inside the box were two tickets. "Dude talk to me!"
"Ivy left something outside my room," Ted said.
"How do you know?" Cody asked.
"Remember that show I've been telling you about?" Ted asked.
"Yeah," Cody said. "You've been talking about that thing forever."
"Well two tickets were left in a box outside my room," Ted said. "And besides you, the only other person I told about that was Ivy." He picked up the tickets and looked at them. "She must have gotten them for me for our anniversary."
"Ted this has got to mean she forgives you," Cody said. "If she didn't, she wouldn't have given you the gift."
"If she had forgiven me she would have physically given the gift to me," Ted pointed out. Cody sighed angrily.
"That's it," Cody said. "I'm calling her on three-way."
"Dude she's not going to talk to you if I'm on the line," Ted said.
"Which is why you're going to keep quiet," Cody said. "Now shush!" Ted sighed and sat down on his bed. He listened as the call rang. It rang for a few more times before Ivy picked up.
"Hi Cody," Her voice was scratchy and she sounded like she had been crying.
"Hey Ivy," Cody said. "How have you been?"
"Shitty," Ivy said. "But you probably know that already."
"I'll admit," Cody said. "I have been playing therapist for Ted. But I wanted to call and make sure you're okay."
"Cody I'm an idiot," Ivy said. "I got so mad at him without even letting him explain."
"Why did you automatically assume he had done something wrong?" Cody asked.
"It's not Ted," Ivy explained. "It's Kristen. I always feel inferior when she's around. He loved her first and if she hadn't made such a crazy lie, that would probably still be together and I would be lonely and pining for Ted."
"But Ivy," Cody said. "You're his girlfriend. He picked you."
"I know," Ivy said. "That's why I'm an idiot." She paused to take a shaky breath. "Do you know why they were even together that day?
"Yeah," Cody said. "They ran into each other on the street and Kristen wanted to talk to him. Apparently, she's been seeing a therapist for a while now. She wanted to talk with him to apologize for everything she did to him so that she could move on from that part of her life."
"Oh god," Ivy said. "I really am an idiot. Cody, do you think he'll ever forgive me?"
"Yeah I will," Ted said.
"Teddy?" Ivy asked quietly. "You heard all that?"
"Yeah," Ted said. "Can we talk? In person?"
"Sure," Ivy said. "Thanks Cody." Then her line clicked off.
"You are welcome," Cody said. Then he hung up the phone. Ted sighed as he put his phone on the nightstand. He ran a hand through his hair as he waited for Ivy.
Five minutes later, a light knock rang through the room. Ted got up and opened the door. Ivy was standing there, looking at the ground.
"Hey," Ted said. Ivy looked up at him.
"Hi," She said. He stepped aside and let her in. He closed the door and walked over to Ivy. "I'm so sorry. I should have let you explain. It was so stupid of me."
"Ivy," Ted said, but she cut him off.
"Just let me finish this," Ivy said. "I shouldn't have jumped to the conclusion that I did. I trust you so much. The whole reason I got so upset was because of Kristen. I still can't get out of my head when she said I would never have you." Her eyes began to tear up. "I really love you Teddy." Ted hugged Ivy and she buried her face in his shirt.
"I'm sorry I didn't think about how seeing myself with Kristen could affect you," Ted said. "I never want to do anything that could hurt you." He kissed her forehead. "I forgive you for overreacting and I'm sorry for what I put you through." Ivy looked up at him. Ted ran his thumb across her cheek, wiping away a tear. "I love you too Ivy." He leaned down and gently kissed her. When they both pulled away, Ted led Ivy over to the bed and sat her down. He went over to his bag and began rummaging for something.
"What are you doing?" Ivy asked. Ted walked back over to Ivy, his hand behind his back. He sat down next to her.
"You took it upon yourself to give me my gift a day early," Ted said.
"But that was only because I thought we still wouldn't be talking tomorrow," Ivy pointed out. "And because I didn't expect Cody to secretly three-way call me."
"Then you don't know Cody," Ted said. "And I want to give you this now." Ted lifted his arm and handed Ivy her gift. It was a thin, silver, rectangular box. Ivy lifted the top part of the box. She gasped as she saw the content of the box. Inside was a simple silver chain with a green gem in the center.
"Teddy it's beautiful," Ivy said.
"Here," He said, reaching over. He lifted the necklace out of the box and put it around Ivy's neck. Ivy lifted up her hair as he hooked the necklace clasps together. Ivy looked at him and smiled.
"I love you Teddy," Ivy said. Ted moved closer, so that their faces were inches apart.
"I love you too," He said, before pinning her shoulders down on the bed. He kissed her passionately, something he had been dying to do for almost a week. Ivy let out a giggle as hers and Ted's clothes were quickly discarded to the floor.
Review! XD
