Marissa POV
You and Ryan sat waiting, nervously. It was almost as though you didn't even know each other anymore. Conversation was rare, awkward silences a constant. You drummed your fingers on the table, as Ryan nervously shifted in his chair. He let out a low chuckle "They never were one to be on time." You let out a small smile, and focused on your silverware. After several minutes, you hear Ryan cough, you look up to see Seth and SUmmer approaching the table.
Seth was wearing a nice suit, and a big smile, his hands wrapped around Summer's who was wearing a pale pink mid calf length dress, its deep v neck, and clingy material, flattered her curves, she seemd to glow, to exude happiness, and you were jealous. Seth held the chair out for Summer and pushed her back in, and after giving her a quick kiss on the cheek, he sat down himself. "Sorry we're late, there was some, um traffic" Seth says, a slight blush in his cheeks. "Ryan I haven't see you in forever, how's buisness going." Summer asks, as she daintily sipped her water.
"Well, the San Diego division of the Newport Group, is growing rapidly, I actually might be facing promotion." Ryan says obviously proud. Summer smiles, "So are you and Coop gonna buy a house in Newport or in San Diego?" Summer asks innocently. Ryan glances at you. "Actually, we were just ar-discussing that before we came up here to visit you" You answer for him. Ryan shoots you a glare before saying "I want to stay down in San Diego, while- Marissa- wants to stay here" He says, adding emphasis to your name.
"I want to be near my family-my friends" you say angrily. "We have friends in San Diego, and you want to be closer to Julie Cooper" Ryan says sternly, his voice growing louder. "She's still my mother" you say very close to tears, you were so embarresed, fighting not only in front of your oldest and dearest friends, but a restaurant full of strangers. "you guys, why don't you just compromise, and settle in both, maybe Newport for weekends and San Diego during the working week" Seth says ripping off a small piece of Roll and popping it into his mouth.
Ryan looks at you for a minute, you just shrug, "I never thought of that" Ryan reaches across the table and holds your hand, the action was so loving, thoughtful, and foreign, you couldn't remember the last time one of you did something so kind to the other. Summer sighed angrily, "You know what you guys, I've been sitting here for the past 10 minutes listening to you argue, and I know you guys didn't come all the way up here asking us for help because of housing, what's going on- spill it." Summer says bluntly. You avert her gaze, and stare at Ryans hand, which still covered yours.
"I just. . . don't want to disapoint her" Ryan says softly. You look up shocked "What!" his blues eyes avoid yours. "Your used to the best, I don't want you to be embaressed of me, of us." your free hand lifts Ryan's chin so your eyes meet, "Honey, i love you, no matter what's in the bank account or in the driveway, I want to be your wife" Ryan smiles slighlty, "I guess I've been distant, to try to, i dunno save you from it, if i drive you away before you run away." you shake your head, "Ryan I would never leave you, we deserve to be happy together" Ryan leans in and kisses you, it began soft, until you hungrily begged for more, becoming one of your more passionate kisses, as your hands run up Ryan's back and into his hair.
"I missed this" you murmur pulling away. "Finally, you guys" You turn to see a very happy Summer and Seth, Now we can continue to plan the wedding of the Century"
