Ashlee POV

I decided to walk to the park, considering I couldn't go back to my house, and I sat down on the swings. My brain started to think of everything that had been happening lately and my eyes started to tear up.

"Ash?" I heard someone say.

Wiping my eyes and looking up, I saw Zack coming toward me. He was only in basketball shorts and he had his iPod in his hand. Taking out the earbuds he sat down next to me.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"No," I sighed, shaking my head. "Not at all."

"Do you want to talk about it?" he inquired, looking over at me.

"You know everything that's been going on," I mumbled. Well, mostly everything…

"Are you worried that Rian thinks you're a whore?" he asked,

I nodded, "I use to be that way, but I'm not anymore. I just hope that he sees that."

"Look," Zack said, softy. "Rian is crazy about you, and you're crazy about him, right?" I nodded. "Then you two will be okay, you just need to sit down and talk everything out with him."

What Zack was saying made me think more about the Alex situation then the one about me and Rian. I needed Rian to know that I still cared about him, but I was starting to develop feelings for Alex as well.

I guess it's true; hate is actually a form of love. Considering I use to hate Alex and now I was crushing over him.

"I need to talk to Rian," I said, standing up. "Thanks for talking to me, Zack."

"Anytime," he smiled, standing up and hugging me. "Call me if you need anything."

"Okay," I called, starting to run out of the park and down the street, heading to Rian's. I wasn't sure if I was going to talk to him about Alex yet, but I defiantly needed to talk to him about the L.A. thing.
