I will follow you

Ryan was waiting at the gates of Brown for Marissa. He didn't tell her he would be coming for He knows she wouldn't answer his calls. He saw her come out of the gate and called her.

"Marissa!"

Marissa looked back and was surprised to see Ryan, "Ryan?" She said as she walked up to him, "Oh, God, what are you doing here? You didn't call…"

"I knew you wouldn't pick up." He said, "And it's okay, I understand…" He said as he gave her the flowers he was holding behind his back.

"Ryan,"

"I was being stupid. Really, really bad Atwood behavior, and I am so sorry about it. That's why I'm here, saying sorry, asking us to be okay again. Or to try, at least. It's just…Almost losing you once really took its toll on me. I just don't want to lose you, you know? But I know, with my behavior, I am pushing you away, and I don't wanna do that anymore. So, please, could we try again?"

Marissa smiled, "We don't really have to try…I mean, we're still one, right?"

Ryan smiled, "I love you."

"I love you, too." She said, "And Ryan…I'm sorry, as well."

"You don't have to say that."

"Wanna have Brown food?" She winked.

"I'd love to." He smiled.

And with that, they walked hand in hand to the cafeteria.
