After the wedding Seth and Summer had said their goodbye having gone to Tahiti for there honey moon. Summer hugged Marissa good bye as Seth went to say good bye to Ryan. "I'm gonna miss you. Do you have to go?" Summer said playfully.

"Afraid I do but I'll call and you'll visit" Marissa said not wanting to leave her best friend again. "You bet your ass I'll visit. Come here Coop" She said hugging her again. "I'll miss you Sum" she said. "Me too Coop" she said sadly.

"So you did it you finally got the girl" Ryan said with a smile. "Yeah I did didn't I?' Seth said proudly. "Listen man you deserve to be happy. Call when you get back" Ryan said nodding. "You know there's still a chance for you too. Just think about it" Seth said hoping Ryan would finally hear him.

Ryan hugged him. "Alright get out of here you don't wanna keep your wife waiting" he said as Seth walked away from him. Everyone watched as Seth and Summer left in the limo heading to their honey moon and just like that the wedding was over.

The next morning Ryan had got up to driven Marissa to the airport. No matter how hard it was he knew he had to do it. Neither of them speaking really. They made it there and he walked her towards the gate.

Seth's words still stuck in his head" There's still a chance for you" he had gone over it in his head the sound of the operator calling Marissa's flight broke his thoughts. "So I guess that's me" she said softly. He nodded silently words lost to him in that moment as she threw her arms around him.

"Take care Ryan" She whispered into his shoulder and as she pulled away he grabbed a hold of her hand. "Wait" he said finally finding his voice shocking her. "Don't go. Don't leave. Stay Marissa" he said staring straight at her. "Ryan" she said sadly.

"No you just you can't go not like this. Not after everything that's happened to us. I love you a part me always has and always will but you can't go. You can't leave again I let you go the first time because I knew you had to. As hard as that was for me I knew you needed find your own way your own path and as much as I wanted to I couldn't protect you. I couldn't ask you to stay because I knew it was what you needed. But now everything's changed since you've been back and it finally feels like something's right again and I just can't let you walk away without asking you to just stay. Stay in New Port, Stay with me" He said as he waited for some semblance of an answer.

She started to cry. "I can't. I have to go" she said walking away from him. He stood in shock he had just laid his heart on the line and she had just walked away as simply as that.

Ryan walked back to the car turning the ignition the radio went on and his ears intently listened to forever Young already halfway through. It was their song. Was that a sign? He thought to himself.

Meanwhile Marissa stood at the ticket counter and heard it faintly playing in the back ground. It was their song. What was she doing? She loved Ryan was she willing to risk it all by leaving? What if she did and he wasn't waiting next time?

She knew what she wanted she wanted Ryan. And she was no longer afraid to admit to that or her fear of falling back into her old ways disappeared because she realized if she had Ryan she could get through anything.

They had wasted so much time already and she wasn't going to waste anymore as she turned and left the terminal rushing to the front door hoping she wasn't too late. She almost made it to the parking lot when she spotted Ryan coming into the airport for the second time.

He spotted her and froze. She smiled and ran towards him throwing her self at him. "I'm sorry Ryan. I'm so sorry." She said. "What are you doing?" he said shocked to see her standing before him.

"I can't do it. I can't leave you. I can't walk away from us not again. Not after everything and I can't take that chance again because I can't expect you to wait forever or even want you to "She said rambling.

"I just can't go back and I'm staying because I still love you I never stopped. And I'm sorry I'm so sorry Ryan and I hope that you'll forgive me for being so idiotic before because I made a mistake I know that now Ryan" She said staring into his eyes. "So what does this mean?" he said. She kissed him softly. "What do you think?" she said with a slight smile. "I think that you're it Marissa. You're my one" Ryan said. She smiled hugging him. "I love you so much" she whispered into his shoulder. "I love you too" he said kissing her again.

As they took each other's hand and walked out of the airport together. "So what made you come back?" Marissa said curious as to the change.

"Remember Forever young? You had claimed that it was our song. I heard it when I got back to the car and I just I don't know it hit me I couldn't sit back and watch you go without fighting it, without fighting you for the sake of us" Ryan said.

She smiled. "Forever young" She said. " So what made you come back?" he said walking towards the car with her. "Well you're not going to believe this but it was the same thing. Talk about about fate huh?" She said smiling.

"Yeah Ironically what the are the odds. "I'm really glad you were willing to fight me for the sake of us" She said.

"Right back at ya Cooper now lets go home" he said with a laugh wrapping his arm around her shoulder as they went to the car driving back to New Port finally ready to see their relation ship through. Knowing that it had to work this time and having faith that it would.
