Marissa stopped halfway down the empty hallway and leant against the cream walls letting the tears fall softly down her face. Her breath came in ragged gasps as she swallowed in an attempt to quell the flowing tears. Her heart was hammering in her ears as she closed her eyes and breathed in deeply, trying to steady her shaking hands. She didn't even know why she was wasting tears over him, he was just a filthy lying pig. She opened her eyes and found tears still welling in them causing the hallways to blur.

Marissa POV

God I'm so stupid. I should have realised, all those times he was "working late". This must have been going on for weeks, even months and I had been to stupid to even figure it out. I'm so confused, I don't know what to feel. I'm not as upset as I thought I would be…wasn't I being hypocritical in this whole thing? Afterall I had been doing the exact same thing last night with Ryan. This is so screwed up. But maybe this would turn out for the best. I could break up with Jake, he'd never have to know about Ryan and then we could just be together. Who am I kidding? Like things in my life are ever as easy as that. What am I doing out here in just my robe? This is such a mess, I need Ryan…

Marissa sighed deeply and started walking shakily back towards the hotel room wiping her eyes…

Ryan sprinted down the hallway as fast as the towel around his waist would allow him, he didn't want to get arrested for indecent exposure. With one hand firmly holding the fluffy white towel around his waist in place he ran the other through his wet hair in frustration. He had to find her, he couldn't let her run off again. He knew any normal person wouldn't be best pleased if their partner was all over the news along with sordid pictures but this was Marissa…she didn't handle bad news well. Would she still want to be with him after this? Maybe she would need time alone, time away from men. Great. He thought as he rounded the corner and bumped straight into someone. He stumbled back desperately clinging onto his towel and looked up meeting a large pair of slightly blood shot sapphire eyes. He let out an audible sigh of relief and looked up into her eyes and smiled slightly.

"Marissa! I…I'm so sorry." He whispered tucking his towel in at the top so it would stay up, Marissa nodded and suddenly appeared to notice Ryan's appearance and smiled softly.

"It's okay…it's not your fault and..I…I guess it's for the best. I mean, we can be together properly now right?" She stammered forcing back the tears that burned in the back of her eyes. Ryan felt a grin creep slowly across his face as he looked into her eyes as she smiled in return her eyes gleaming.

"I guess so." He said with a grin before leaning in closer, their lips met softly before Marissa kissed his hungrily running her fingers down his bare back. Ryan lifted his hand up to her cheek and let it rest there gently as he kissed her passionately. Suddenly he was aware of his towel slipping and his eyes snapped open as he pulled away. Marissa let out a stifled shriek as his towel hit the floor leaving him standing in the middle of the hallway…totally naked. Ryan felt heat rush to his face as he desperately reached down to pick it up his heart hammering as he wished the ground would just swallow him up right now. Marissa giggled and caught his hand as he reached to pick it up and smiled seductively.

"I prefer it off…" She whispered.

Marissa let her finger hover uncertainly over the call button as her eyes travelled across Jake's number, could she really do this? God, she hated doing this over the phone but he didn't deserve to get a face to face break up. Her hand shook uneasily as she pressed the call button and held the phone to her ear, her heart hammering. She was going to finish with him, but even after what he had done she couldn't help but be upset after all the time they had spent together it was only natural right? She sighed and smiled slightly as it went straight to voicemail. Perfect. She breathed in deeply and started as the beep sounded in her ear.

"Um Hi Jake It's Marissa…I don't really know how to say this so I guess I'll just come out with it…" She said shakily, pausing to catch her breath. She looked around and felt tears sting in her eyes…Stop it, she urged herself. Why was she crying over him?

"It's over, I can't stay with you. I know what you've been doing in France, there's pictures everywhere. How could you do this to me? I thought you loved me? But to tell you the truth, I'm glad. I finally get to escape and live my own life without you checking up on me, getting jealous if I so much as make eye contact with a guy. I'm sorry…no wait I'm not sorry, you should be. Don't bother calling me back, I don't want to talk to you. I'll tell Ryan to forget the new house. I'm not going anywhere with you. I thought you were different but in the end , you're the same as every other sleaze bag out there. Goodbye Jake…" She finished holding back tears and keeping her voice steady, she wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of knowing he could make her cry. She hung up and set the phone down with shaking hands and rested her head in her hands letting the tears flow freely now. God she was so stupid…how could she cry over him? She thought desperately, scrunching her delicate hands into small, shaking fists. She didn't want to feel like this, she wanted to be happy. Happy that she was finally back with Ryan, where she belonged. But she still did love Jake, granted not in the way she loved Ryan but she loved him none the less and he had betrayed her. She had a right to be upset didn't she?

She sighed shakily as the tears continued to flow freely. She smiled slightly as she remembered all the good times they had shared. When they first met at his film premier, going away together, the kisses, the nights spent together…but then there was the other times, the arguments, jealous rages, shouting, the little digs that made her feel so insignificant and the one thing that Ryan would never do…the time he had hit her. She knew after it had happened she should have just left him and walked out but he had seemed so sincere when he said he was sorry and she knew he wouldn't do it again.

She looked up and wiped her eyes, sniffing and straightened herself up. She wasn't going to give him the satisfaction, she wasn't going to cry anymore over him. She was with Ryan know, the man she loved, who treated her right and loved her in return. She was finally where she belonged, with the perfect guy.

There was a soft knock at the door and she looked up wiping her eyes furiously before whispering a soft come in. The door opened slowly spilling light into the dimly lit room. Ryan stood in the doorway holding two steaming mugs and smiling nervously. Marissa smiled as she felt her heart swell, she loved him so much. Maybe things were finally going to be okay. He sat down on the bed next to her and handed her a mug.

"I got you some hot chocolate, I know it's your favourite…Are you okay?" He asked softly as she looked towards him and smiled weakly. She looked down at the swirling brown liquid then drew her gaze back up to Ryan's.

"I am now…" She whispered.

Seth collapsed down onto the bed next to Summer and sighed tracing his fingers softly over Summer's tanned, smooth stomach. She smiled slightly and met Seth's gaze.

"You okay?" She asked softly. Seth nodded still looking down at her stomach before meeting her chocolate brown eyes.

"Yeah I was just thinking of baby names…"He said with a smile and Summer rolled her eyes in exaggeration.

"Uh oh, there better not be anymore Thor's or…Ezekiel's in there." She said warningly as she sat up and crossed her legs. Seth grinned and shook his head.

"What's wrong with Ezekiel? It's a great name for a boy." He said indignantly. Summer couldn't help but smile as she looked into Seth's face.

"Yeah getting past that…so what were you thinking of?" She asked seriously, leaning back against the pillows and resting her hand on her stomach. Seth leant back, following suit and looked up at the ceiling.

" I was thinking of Matthew, you know after your cousin…if it's too weird for you then that's fine it's just…I…I thought." He babbled trailing off as Summer smiled tearfully remembering her 12 year old cousin, she pressed a finger to his lips and silenced him. Tears welling in her eyes as she smiled and leant closer.

"I love it…baby Matt…" She said looking down at her stomach and smiling happily, Seth smiled and leant in, kissing her softly and lovingly.

Jake looked down at his phone and read the message alert. He looked out the window and groaned as he saw the gathering paparazzi shouting and flashing their cameras. There was no way Marissa didn't know, great. He had screwed things up and now his career would probably go down the pan as well. He dialled voicemail and listened the stiff, recorded voice tell him he had one message. He opened it and listened thinking desperately of how to get his way out of this one…

"Um Hi Jake It's Marissa…I don't really know how to say this so I guess I'll just come out with it…"

He felt a feeling of dread creep over him, this was it. It was over. He heard her breathing shakily down the line and closed his eyes. He knew what to do…he knew how to get out of this.

"It's over, I can't stay with you. I know what you've been doing in France, there's pictures everywhere. How could you do this to me? I thought you loved me? But to tell you the truth, I'm glad. I finally get to escape and live my own life without you checking up on me, getting jealous if I so much as make eye contact with a guy. I'm sorry…no wait I'm not sorry, you should be. Don't bother calling me back, I don't want to talk to you. I'll tell Ryan to forget the new house. I'm not going anywhere with you. I thought you were different but in the end , you're the same as every other sleaze bag out there. Goodbye Jake…"

She was obviously upset…there was still a chance he could get her back but he needed a plane ticket to New York…

A/N again sorry for the length but I've been really busy and it's better than nothing right?...right? Oh...aaanywho I hoped you liked it, next part chocka full of drama!
