A/N this might short cause I'm going to Vegas on tomorrow for my 21st on the 16th with 12 of my friends and I've got too get packed and everything. Woo Hoo! PARTY! Lol.

Chapter 12--

This is what silence was like – sitting in the Atwood living room with Ryan, Marissa and Sandy.

You probably could hear the squirrels in Central Park.

'So what are you doing in New York?' Sandy asked.

Marissa sat up to say something knowing this was her fault about what happened – why they where there – why Trey was going to be watched by officers for the rest of his life.

But Ryan wasn't going to let her take the fall for this one.

She had done it all ready – it was partly his fault on why she wanted to leave Newport anyway.

As he seen it – Sadie and him had harmed her the way they flirted together in front of Marissa – but to be fair Volchuk and Marissa made him physically sick – the way he touched her like he was actually allowed too.

Trey had hurt her before – and now he was giving Marissa one back.

'It was my fault…' Ryan said. '…I wasn't thinking straight, I uh – I wanted to see what New York looked like – because I have never been to NY before – and Marissa said it was beautiful – so I asked her to come with me.'

Marissa looked at Ryan she gave him a look of understanding and thankfulness and he smiled back knowingly.

'New York is beautiful I'll tell you that – nobody locks their doors, and the way the sun sets under the sky scrapers – it's beautiful – peaceful – maybe even as beautiful as a Newport beach.' Sandy agreed.

'But neither of us knew that we would be here for this amount of time – and with the baby…'Marissa stopped speaking just realising that she had mentioned a baby.

'We know.' Sandy said

'Huh.' Ryan and Marissa said at the same time.

'We got private detectors to find out where you are – and then they got a copy of your doctor's appointment so...' Sandy trailed on. 'Are you ready to come home' Sandy asked.

'Yes I think we are.' Ryan smiled at Marissa – she smiled back.

'Does Kirsten know about Trey?' Ryan asked.

'No one in Newport knows about Trey – and it will be staying that way.' Sandy hinted.

'Ryan how the hell did you get this apartment?' Sandy laughed.
