What just happened? Martin sat in his car in the parking lot with his hands on his head leaning on the steering wheel. He was confused. He loved Ruthie, he really did. But he had been afraid to tell her how he really felt, until tonight. But he thought she loved him too? She made it pretty obvious to everyone around that she was in love with Martin, yet she ran away when he finally came forward. Wasn't that what Ruthie wanted? For Martin to finally admit he felt the same way? Maybe she had changed her mind, maybe she had gotten over Martin and didn't want to get into this again because she was afraid it would turn out the same as last time. But he couldn't just let it go, he couldn't just forget about his feelings for Ruthie. He loved her.
