The next morning Ryan woke up with a severe hang-over which didn't surprise him it seemed the norm recently he crawled out of bed and walked downstairs grapping a water bottle and taking some asprain to try and ease the pain before heading into the livingroom
After watching some TV ryan got changed and head to a local cafe for breakfast while he was eating his cell phone rang disturbing him from his paper he placed it down picking uo his phone flipping it open and answering it
'Hello'Ryan said not bothering to look at the caller I.D
'Ryan how are you ' His manager Richard answered in an annoying cheery voice at such a early time in the day
'I'm fine just having brekafast. You call for something' Ryan replied waiting patienly on his manager explaingin why he'd disturbed him
'Well we've got more press for your movie to do we are going to Newport tomorow and then Europe in a fortnight' Richard explained letting Ryan know everything he needed to know
'Wait did you just say Newport as in Orange County' Ryan asked shokced hoping he heard wrong
'Yeah is that a problem' Richard as unsure why Ryan was acting so weird
'Em no its fine'Ryan lied his heart rate suddnely increased
'Great then we'll pick you up at Twelve before heading to LAX' Richard confirmed making sure Ryan was organized
'Yeah see you then' Ryan sighed before hanging up and looking down at his plate suddenly losing his appatiete
'I'm going back to the place i've tried to ignore for the last five years' Ryan thought calling for his cheque and reacing into his pocket and pulling out a cigerette and lighting it never remembering when he needed one more
Ryan paid for his breakfast leaving a tip before walking to his car and pulling out of the cafe parking lot deciding to go for a drive to give himself time to think what he was going to do
Meanwhile back in Newport Seth,Summer and Marissa were over at Sandy and Kirsten for lunch with Summer and Marissa showing Kirsten there latest desingns while Seth was just there for the food and pudding
'So girls how is everything' Kirsten smiled looking over at Summer and Marissa howhad become like daughters to her and Sandy over the last five years especailyy Summer who was going to be there daughter -in-law in a few months time and part of Kirsten still hoped the day would came when somehow Marissa would became the same with Ryan
'Everythins great the fashion lines doing awoseme' Marissa smiled looking at Kirsten
'Good to hear. So hows the wedding plans going Summer' Kirsten asked wanting to know everything about the wedding
'Its going good without any help from your son' Summer joed althought half serious
'Yeah that doesn't surprise me Sandy was the same for our wedding' Kirsten laughed looking into the livingroom seeing Sandy and Seth sitting on the couch talking and laughing
After lunch Seth and Summer went home while Marissa drove back to her apartment walking inside she threw her purse on the couch before walking into her bedroom and unlcoking her bedside drawer pulling out a book of photo and newspaper clippings she had collected since Ryan had became famous that no one knew about except her
Looking over it Marissa felt tears welling up in her eyes wondering why Ryan never returned and if he really ever loved her part of her wanted to know and the other part thought it was better not to know
