The next morning, Ryan woke up on Marissa's couch, with Marissa in his arms. He didn't quite remember what happened at first. But right away, he knew. She was his again. He was allowed to love her again. Like he could ever stop! He wanted to cherish this moment forever. She looked gorgeous, just lying there. So gentle and angelic. Perfect.
She opened her eyes, so soft and slowly, making sure that what she remembered was true. He was there. Staring into her eyes, smiling. This made her smile too. He leaned over and kissed her, she kissed back.
Ryan looked over to Marissa. "Good morning."
"Yeah, really good morning." She cooed.
She just couldn't stop smiling. Everything was so perfect at this moment.
"I love you so much." Ryan smiled.
"I love you too."
"No, I mean I love you more than anything." Ryan said. "I can't even explain how much. You mean everything to me. You make me complete. I know I'm gonna be with you forever, and I never want to be without you again."
Her eyes started to water. She couldn't believe what just came out of his mouth. She thought she had ruined everything, and then, he loved her enough to come back, forgive her, and love her again.
"You mean the world to me too, I feel the same way." She managed to get out. "I'm so sorry I almost ruined everything between us. I'm always gonna trust you. Nothing is ever gonna come between us again."
Ryan could feel himself start to loose himself. He couldn't believe how much he loved her, he didn't know it was possible.
"Marissa? Is that you honey?" Jimmy called out.
She was in a daze. She hardly heard her father call her until Ryan got her attention.
"Oh yeah, I'm in here daddy." She said startled.
"Hey honey. Oh, uh, hey Ryan!" He said surprised. "I haven't seen you in a while."
"Yeah, well there was a lot going on. Nice to see you again." Ryan said.
"You too. I gotta go to work Marissa. See you around Ryan." Jimmy said. He was glad to see Marissa happy again. It had been a while, and since Theresa, everything had just been worse.
Ryan liked being able to see Mr. Cooper again. He didn't even know he missed him at all. But the truth was, anything that had to do with Marissa, he missed. He didn't ever want to leave, but he knew he had to.
"Hey, I better go home." Ryan said dissapointed. "Sandy and Kirsten are probably wondering about me, and I know Seth is gonna go crazy."
"Yeah, but I wish you didn't have to go though." Marissa said.
"I don't wanna go either. How about we go out tonight? I'll pick you up around 6:30?" Ryan asked. "
"Yeah, I can't wait. I love ya, babe." She said.
"I love you too." Ryan said. "See ya tonight."
He grabbed his coat, and Marissa shut the door behind him. He missed her aleready.
She aleready needed him again. She knew she had to do something to get her mind off of him, but there was nothing.
When Ryan got home, Sandy, Kirsten and Seth were all sitting at the table eating brekfast. Sandy was reading the Saturday paper, and Seth was being bombarded with questions about him and Summer. He laughed at the sight of his new family. It reminded him of a real family. He was part of a real family. As he walked into the kitchen, all three looked up in surprise.
"Hey buddy! Where have you been?!" Seth asked.
"I was um, at Marissa's house." Ryan answered.
"That's good kiddo! So you guys made up?" Sandy chimed in.
"Yeah."
"Oh Ryan, that's so great!" Kirsten said, giving Ryan a hug.
"Yeah." Ryan said once again.
"Ok, the best thing ever just happened to you and all you can say is "Yeah."? C'mon buddy, tell us what happened!" Seth exclaimed.
"Uh, that's ok. Is there any coffee?" Ryan asked.
"Ok, fine, just ignore me! I'll go talk to Captain Oats. He tells me his real feelings." Seth said throwing his arms up in frustration.
Ryan laughed at this. Typical Seth. Sandy gave him some coffee, and asked him how his night went. It was wonderful. What couldn't be wonderful right now? Everything was absolutely perfect.
