Marissa buried her face in her pillow, it got soaked from her tears. Summer had left her only a few minutes ago, and even though she had reassured Marissa, she still couldn't believe this was happening. He had promised.

Marissa picked up the phone.

"Hello....Room service...Yeah I'd like a double hot fudge brownie sundae with whipped cream, and then...umm...some vodka" She hurried up and said to the man on the other line.

Marissa used this trick to run from her problems all the time, but when Ryan had come into her life and they were together there was no use for it anymore. The vodka would just loosen her up a bit she thought. Keep her from crying too much, relax a bit.

They would be leaving on Sunday. But who knows. For all Marissa knew, she would be riding on the plane alone, while Ryan and Theresa took a plane to a private resort in Tahiti. "What a fucker" she thought. She should have known.

There was a knock on the door. She got up too quickly hopeing it was Ryan.

"Room Service" she heard on the other side of the door. Marissa unlocked the door.

"Oh, Thanks so much" she said as he turned around and left her standing there at the open door, opening to the empty hallway.

She shut the door an proceeded to the sofa, and flicked on the T.V. , eating her sundae.

She took a swash of vodka every now and then, using the sundae to cover up the taste.

"The Valley" came on, her favorite show, she got a little bit too excited, taking more than enough vodka.

Ryan awoke very late that night, and had no idea where he was. He was then surprised to see that he was naked and all alone! "I must have had a little too much to drink" he thought. And where was Marissa? He was naked so he had obviously been with Marissa, right? He got up, pulled on his pants and tee-shirt, and grabbed his jacket. As he walked downstairs to find that the party was mostly empty. "Where's everybody?"

His question was soon answered when he saw Seth sitting at a table near the huge kitchen.

"There you are!" Seth exclaimed.

"Yea, um, where's Marissa?"

Seth gave him a strange look. "Well Dude, she went home. What would you think she would do?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, she was pissed. Something happened between you two right"

"I don't remember, must have been pretty drunk"

"Yea well, she was in tears. I don't know what happened."

"Ok, well do you wanna catch a cab home?"

"Sure, let's go"

Seth and Ryan walked out the front door, but Ryan was stopped by Theresa.

"Well, baby, here's my number. Call me sometime, ok?". She handed him a slip of paper, and gave him a wink.

"Yea... sure" he said.

Ryan and Seth got into a cab that was waiting outside, and drove off to the hotel.

Marissa stirred from her sleep. The bright sun shined through the curtains in her eyes. She turned around to face the other way, vaguely trying to remember her night. She had drunken a lot, and passed out on the bed, fully clothed. As reality started to set in, she cringed at the sight of Ryan laying a few feet from her. She so much wanted to kiss him in his sleep, but remembered the horrible thing she had seen last night. There was a lot anger built up inside of her now, and the hurt she had felt last night seemed to subside with the rage rising in the pit of her stomach. She couldn't believe that he actually had the nerve to come back.

She got up to go have a shower, checking the time on her way. Only 8:45 am, earlier than she thought. She turned on the shower and stood under it motionless, before grabbing the shampoo bottle to wash her hair. She heard a noise.

"Hey baby" Ryan said as he kissed her neck, once stripped down to nothing standing up against her in the shower.

"WHAT THE FUCK!! GET OFF ME!! DO U THINK I COULD JUST FORGIVE YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID AFTER I WALKED IN ON YOU LASTNIGHT! GET OUT!!!" Marissa yelled, so pissed off. She shoved away from her.

Ryan, being startled, got out. He was so confused. He waited for her, and sat on the edge of the bed.

Moments later she appeared, holding a towel to herself.

"I thought I told you to leave" she said giving him the evil look.

"I don't get what's going on, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? WHAT'S WRONG!! I WALKED IN ON YOU HAVING SEX WITH THERESA, THATS WHAT WRONG!! YOU PROMISED ME RYAN!" Marissa held back tears, and smacked Ryan across the face. "I hate you." She spat.

Ryan was stunned. He wasn't the one to walk away this time. Marissa left him there, and went next-door to Summer and Seth's suite.
