I Don't own the o.c… Scene 7

Ryan was on his way to the airport to pick up Brooke. He didn't know what to say to her. Maybe Marissa was right he should wit at least a day. She had just gotten back. But should he take Brooke to the fashion show? That's probably not a very good idea. She may not even run into Marissa, Holly or any of those other girls though if they're in the show. I can just go enough so they see I came and then jet. Ryan's thoughts came to a halt when he pulled into the airport parking lot. He stepped out of the car and made his way inside.

Ryan walked up to where Brooke would be exiting the plane and stood there waiting. The gait opened up and passengers began flowing out. Ryan looked around waiting for Brooke. Soon he saw her coming out. She really was beautiful. Her hair was down and curly and she was bearing a tight backless dress.

Br: "Hey!"

Ry : "Hey. You look hot what's the occasion."

Br: "let's go out to dinner."

Ry: "ok sure…"

Br: "why are you all dressed up? Did you have other plans?" Brooke said looking Ryan up and down. He was wearing a crisp black suit.

Ry: "well there's this fashion show…I was going to go, but I think we should go out to dinner."

Br: "ya, we need to talk."

Ry: "Brooke…"

Br: "you're not into this Ryan…"

Ry: "let's go to dinner Brooke."

They made there way to the car and a silent ride to the dinner restaurant. Brooke had made reservations ahead of time, and they were seated immediately. Once they sat down they ordered there food, and made small talk about eh Cohen's, Brookes trip, and even Ryan's surfing lessons with Marissa until the food came.

Br: "Ryan…what's been with you lately?"

Ry: "Brooke I love you more than anything. You know that. But its changed. Its gone from that fun, passion love to sisterly love. I think it has to do with Addison living with us and having her become our responsibility but recently it hasn't been the same."

Br: "Ryan I know. I don't know if I feel the same way. But I understand. I love Addison to death, but ever since your mom left and we took her in its put a lot of stress and responsibility on out relationship. We never even go out anymore, or do the things young couples do."

Ry: "I know. I'm sorry." Ryan looked down.

Br: "oh no it's not your fault! It's that with our careers growing its been hard."

Ry: "I think maybe we should be support systems, best friends, anything but…"

Br: "Boyfriend girlfriend."

Ry: "ya, I don't want a relationship right now Brooke. And its not you at all. Its that I cant be in a relationship and hold up my end when I have Addison."

Br: "I know. And I love you more than anyone."

Ry: "and I love you. I will always love you."

Br: "Good. Cause now that's were BFF's and all I can kick your ass if you don't."

Ry: "ill be shaking in my boots."

Br: "so tell me about Marissa…"
