Next Morning
Ruthie awoke the next morning, she could feel the RV moving, and obviously they were going to get Denny's for breakfast. She looked at her clock, it was 10:30am, she decided after breakfast she would talk to T-bone.
After Breakfast
Ruthie walks to T-bone
Ruthie- so um T-bone can I talk to you outside for a minute alone.
T-bone- yeah sure.
T-bone- and I wanted to talk to you also, about why you weren't really talking to me lately.
Ruthie- about that, I have been doing a lot of thinking lately.
T-bone- so that's why you haven't been able to talk to be, because you've been thinking?
Ruthie- yes, and no, I think we should break-up for good, as in when you come back from your dad's we don't see each other at all.
T-bone- what! We just got back together, you said you loved me.
Ruthie- I know but I just don't have those feelings for you anymore, I don't love you, and I realized I don't see my future with you.
T-bone- I cannot believe this! This is about Martin isn't it?
Ruthie (no response)
T-bone- it is, well that's just great, and you go ahead and run back to that big jerk, who broke your heart before, and now you back, go ahead a do that.
Ruthie- I am so sorry T-bone, but it's just how I feel, and you're just going to have to accept that.
T-bone- fine do what you want Ruthie, but if he rejects you don't come crawling back to me, cause I won't be there.
He goes back inside the RV
Ruthie sits down on the lawn chair.
She didn't want to hurt T-bone but she couldn't keep making him think that she loved him when she didn't.
Over my Head (song) - The Fray
I never knew
I
never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I
knew was waiting on a queue
To turn and run when all I needed was
the truth
But that's how it's got to be
It's coming down to
nothing more than apathy
I'd rather run the other way than stay
and see
The smoke and who's still standing when it
clears
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my
head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your
mind
She's on your mind
Let's rearrange
I wish you were
a stranger I could disengage
Just say that we agree and then never
change
Soften a bit until we all just get along
But that's
disregard
Find another friend and you discard
As you lose the
argument in a cable car
Hanging above as the canyon comes
between
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my
head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your
mind
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my
head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's
on your mind
She's on your mind
And suddenly I become a
part of your past
I'm becoming the part that don't last
I'm
losing you and its effortless
Without a sound we lose sight of the
ground
In the throw around
Never thought that you wanted to
bring it down
I won't let it go down till we torch it
ourselves
And everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my
head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your
mind
She's on your mind
Everyone knows
She's on your
mind
Everyone knows I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm
in over...
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my
head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your
mind
She's on your mind
Ruthie then walks back into the RV.
Annie walks up to Ruthie
Annie- Hi Ruthie, do you know what's wrong with T-bone he came in here looking angry and he slammed his door to his room
Ruthie- well, I just broke him with.
Annie- what, why? You two just got back together.
Ruthie- I know that, but I don't have feelings for him anymore, I don't think I really ever did. I just gave up after Martin and decided that I could try to go out with someone new then when I found out that T-bone actually was in love with me I was so happy that someone actually loved me that I went along with it when I realized I didn't love him at all.
Annie- so made yourself think you loved him when you didn't.
Ruthie- it was just a nice thought and piece of mind after Martin told me he didn't love me like I loved him.
Annie- I understand, but you could have told him sooner.
Ruthie- I know, and I should have, but it was hard to do.
Annie- so you still love Martin
Ruthie- yeah I do
Annie- that's good that you know how you feel now and T-bone is leaving in a couple of days, so he can get away, and you can forget about him. But anyway, are you going to call Martin?
Ruthie- for what? He won't want me back after I told him no.
Annie- you don't know until you try, if he loves you and cares about you and wants to be with you, he'll take you back.
Ruthie- I don't know.
Annie- How about this then, when we get back home next week, you can go talk to him then.
Ruthie- ok
