Chapter 21
Ryan looked up to see who he had bumped into. He couldn't believe his eyes. Marissa Cooper... what was she doing here? Before he could say anything, she was gone. She vanished around the corner.
"Maybe she didn't recognize me" he thought. He wasn't going to wait to find out.
"Marissa?!!" he called down the hallway. He dropped his bag and walked swiftly around the corner.
Marissa did NOT need this right now. She wasn't ready, and wasn't looking as good as she wished she did. But when she heard Ryan's voice, she paused.
"I thought that was you..." she said shyly.
"Where are you off to? Do you wanna come in or something?"
"Um, no thanks, I have to go check in at the hotel" she lied.
"Ohh..." Ryan said, somewhat disappointed. "Well, I'll see you around I guess"
"Um, yea"
Marissa pressed the button for the elevator to come up. Ryan wondered if he should wait or go inside. "Yea, well, um, bye". Ryan turned and as he rounded the corner, he heard the elevator's "ding". Marissa got in, and he turned, to see the elevator doors close. She was running off yet again...
When Marissa walked out of the hotel, and had no idea where she was going. She stopped a cab, and told the driver to take her to a nice hotel. When she stopped in front of a comfort inn; she wasn't exactly pleased, but too tired to protest, she grabbed her bag and made her way to the front desk.
"Hi, I don't have a reservation, but I need somewhere to stay tonight" she said to the friendly looking lady at the front desk. She smiled back and started typing away at the computer. She stopped, and politely told Marissa that there was an opening. Marissa took a room on the 2nt floor.
When she got to the room, she called her aunt to tell her that she was ok. It was an early night for Marissa, but she shut off the lights and awoke the next morning feeling confident and ready for anything. She called up Summer, and after a brief conversation, Marissa walked out the door, and over to Summer's apartment. Little did she know, Ryan was waiting for her. And he had a surprise too.
