Chapter 31

Here's chapter 31. I will keep updating as often as possible as long as I keep getting reviews. Thanks for all your reviews they make my day. R&R. Thanks

Ryan and Marissa get to the station and Marissa was still crying because she didn't want to tell the cops about what Oliver did to her but she knew that if she didn't tell them then he'd go on walking the street and probably do it to someone else. She couldn't take that chance if she could save one person from this, then it would all be worth it. Ryan had his arm around her resting his arm around her waist. She felt like everything was going to be okay as long as she had Ryan. The police officer put them in this little room and told them to wait there and another police officer would be there soon. Marissa sat down in a chair and Ryan sat down next to her holding her hand.
Ryan: Hey you okay?
Marissa: Yeah, I'm just nervous about telling someone. I really don't want to tell a complete stranger about what happened to me.
Ryan: It's okay. I'm here act like your just telling it to me.
Marissa: I guess I could try that. I don't think it will work but it couldn't hurt.

They sat there in silence for a few minutes both just staring off into space. Marissa started feeling better the more she thought about it. She had learned to be really strong over the years because of her raising Parker all by herself. She had really grown over the years and she learned that she didn't need a man to be happy, which is something she didn't know when she was in high school. She didn't paticularly like not having a guy but she knew she could live without Ryan if she had to. After a while Ryan decided to break the silence.
Ryan: You think my parents are worried about us?
Marissa: Huh?
Marissa didn't hear him because she was concentrating really hard.
Ryan: I said do you think my parents are worried about us?
Marissa: Why didn't you call Sandy and ask him to come up here aren't you like supposed to have a lawyer everytime you get questioned by the police?
Ryan: Only if they are questioning you about a crime you committed. We didn't do anything wrong so no need for a lawyer.
Marissa: Oh, well you should probably call them and tell them where we are so they don't worry about us.
Ryan: Yeah I should I'm just going to step outside.
Marissa: Okay.

Ryan walked out the door and Marissa just stared at it as he walked out. The camera goes from her staring at the door to Ryan outside the door.
Ryan: Hey Kirsten.
Kirsten: Hey son. Where are you we were really worried. You haven't called since you left.
Ryan: Yeah I know. We went to go help Christie and-
Kirsten: When are you going to stop doing that?
Ryan: Doing what?
Kirsten: Saving people you can't go through your whole life saving people. Who's going to save you Ryan?
Ryan: I don't need saving. I am fine and she really needed help.
Kirsten: Everyone needs saving Ryan. Even you.
Ryan: I don't okay just drop it!
He was starting to get very angry and he raised his voice at her and he instantly felt bad about it.
Kirsten: Don't talk to me like that. I am your mother and I love you I'm just trying to give you some motherly advice.
Ryan could hear the hurt in her voice so he decided to just drop it.
Ryan: I know I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap at you.
Kirsten: It's okay just try to control the anger, k?
Ryan: Kay. Well, we are at the police station.
Kirsten: Why?
Ryan: I'll explain everything tommorrow I swear.
Kirsten: Do you need Sandy?
Ryan: No that's okay we're not in any kind of trouble.
Kirsten: Okay but call us if you need anything.
Ryan: Okay, thanks Kirsten.
Kirsten: For what?
Ryan: For being a good mom.
Kirsten: No thanks needed.
Ryan: Alright I better get going.
Kirsten: Okay, bye.
Ryan: Bye.

He hung up the phone and walked back into the room where Marissa was still staring at the door.
Ryan: Hey you falling in love with that door or something?
Marissa: What?
Ryan: Nothing it was a joke anyways.
Marissa was still staring at the same place which Ryan was now standing in front of so it looked like she was staring at him.
Ryan: Hello? Earth to Marissa!
Marissa: What?
Ryan: You were staring am I that hot?
Marissa: No actually I was staring at the door and you just happened to be standing there.
Ryan: What's wrong?
Marissa just kept staring. Ryan went over to her and grabbed her hands and made her look him in the eyes.
Ryan: Marissa, if you don't talk to me about things then we are never going to be able to make this work.
Marissa: Ryan what do you want me to say to you?
Ryan: Tell me what you are thinking what you are feeling.
Marissa: I'm scared shitless Ryan! Is that what you want to hear?
Marissa was yelling and suddenly just broke into tears. Ryan was stunned he didn't know what to do so he just wrapped his arms around her tightly running his fingers through her hair.

Ryan: Shh baby it's okay. Everything is going to be okay.

Marissa: I'm so scared Ryan.

Ryan: Why are you scared?

Marissa: I just don't want to tell anyone it's embarrasing but I'm scared if I don't he will do it again to someone else. I also know the law and he raped me almost three years ago, there is no way that's going to hold up in court. I'll tell everyone and he won't even get punished for it. I should have reported it a long time ago and the judge will say so too.

Ryan listened and he immediately knew she was right. There was no way he would be convicted because they have no proof that he even did it.

Ryan: We will talk to Sandy he will take care of it.

Marissa: Sandy will take it to court waste his time and lose.

Ryan: It's not a waste of time Marissa.

Marissa: What's the point of telling someone if he isn't going to even get in trouble?

Ryan: To help you get past it and deal with it.

Marissa: I have been dealing with it for almost three years Ryan.

Ryan: I know that Marissa I'm just saying it would probably help.

Marissa: I think it would make everything worse if I went to court with it and he didn't get in trouble at all.

Ryan: How about you just tell the police and see what they say before you make any decisions okay.

Marissa just sobbed and layed her head on his shoulder.

Ryan: Baby we will get through this together and if he doesn't get in trouble then we will still be together and I will help you get through it.

Marissa: I love you Ry.

Ryan: I love you too Riss.

He kissed her softly on the lips and afterwards she layed her head back on his shoulder. She could do this as long as she had Ryan.
