Last Time
"You get now"! Ruthie looked at Martin him seemed speechless at the moment so she wiped her eyes again and continued.
That's what I've been acting like this because I'm in love with you. You know you were right I am jealous of you Meredith's relationship! All this time I've been angry and hurt because she is with and not!
"Ruthie wait" interrupted Martin.
"No let me finish. I'm sorry I never meant for this to happen but it did and I can't change the way I feel"! Ruthie moved closer to Martin and pulled him into a kiss.
She pulled away and looked at Martin he seemed to be in a trance like state.
"Martin are you ok"?
"Ruthie I better get home"
"Martin you are home".
"Oh" he said nodding his head. "Well I better go".
Sighing she watched him walk into his house. Ruthie wrapped herself in a hug and walked back to her house defeated.
"Ruthie what's wrong" Ruthie looked up; she had ran into Kevin and Lucy who was holding a sleeping Savannah.
"I'm fine" she said as her bottom lip quivered. "I'll see you guys tomorrow.
"Bye" they replied.
She walked inside surprised she hadn't broken down. "Maybe I shouldn't have told him" she thought.
"Ruthie if you're hungry there's a plate for you in refrigerator".
Ruthie stood there staring into space not hearing what her mom said.
"Ruthie"!
"Huh, oh I'm not hungry".
"Ruthie are you ok"? Annie asked, concerned about her daughter.
"I'm fine just tired" she said as she faked yawned.
"I hope you and Martin are ok, I've noticed you've been arguing a lot lately.
"We're fine just fine. Well I'm going go finish my homework bye".
Next Day
She woke up at the sound of her alarm. Ruthie glanced down at her homework she had finished but there were several tear stains on the papers.
"If I have time I'll do it over" she mumbled. She took a quick shower, found a pair of black Capris, and a black shirt and was set to go.
She looked at her hair and pulled into a mess ponytail. Looking in the mirror she saw that her eyes were a little swollen but she didn't care. Ruthie grabbed her backpack and headed to the kitchen.
"Good morning Ruthie" her father said.
"Good morning" she mumbled.
"Ruthie are you alright"?
"I'm fine how many times do I have to tell you people that! Now I have to go catch my bus, bye"! She yelled as she grabbed a piece of toast and walk out the door.
Annie walked into the kitchen with the twins. "Did I just hear Ruthie"?
"Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with her. I just ask her if she was ok and she snapped".
"Well I'll talk to her when she gets home. By the way I need you to take the twins to school" Annie said.
"Sure, boys let go, bye" he gave Annie a kiss on the cheek.
School
Ruthie spent the whole day lost in thought. She kept thinking about Martin. "Why can't I stop thinking about him he rejected me" she thought.
"Ruthie" her teacher called.
"Yes" she said looking up from her desk.
You're going be late for your next class".
"Sorry, I better get going".
Ruthie walked to her locker, no Martin he was avoiding her like the plague.
"Ruthie" a voice called.
"Jake" she said trying to force a smile. "Hi"
"I was wondering if you wanted to go to a party with me tonight"?
"Tonight, I don't know I have to ask my parents.
"Come Ruthie live a little and beside its Friday not a school night.
"Fine I'll go" she said.
"I pick you up at 7:00". He gave kiss on the cheek and walked away.
"I do need to live a little and that's exactly what I'm going to do at this party tonight" she says to herself.
After school: After Baseball Practice
Martin what's wrong with you seem distracted" his friend Mac said."Oh, I know you're thinking about Meredith again aren't you".
Martin looked at him confused.
"Meredith, Martin you know your girlfriend who you can't stop talking about.
"I'm sorry Mac, I'm just"… he said getting distract once again.
"You're just what? You know what forget it, we'll talk about why you're distracted later. By they way have you seen Ruthie"?
"No I haven't seen her! Does it look like I follow her around"? He yelled.
"Martin claim down!
"I sorry Mac I didn't mean to snap at you like that. Now what do you have to tell me about Ruthie".
Mac looks at Martin like he's crazy but continues. "She has been acting really strange. First of all she's wearing all black, second her eyes were red and swollen it look like she had been crying, and third I ask her if she was ok and she almost bit my head off.
"Oh" said Martin.
"Martin that's all you have to say I mean she's your best friend". You know what I think"?
"What"? Martin asked already knowing the answer.
"I think some jerk broke her heart. I think we should find out who it is and kick his ass.
"We can't"!
Why not Martin"? We're Ruthie's friends.
"I'm the jerk who broke her heart".
