**** Sorry this is short but needed****
Rachel was caught a bit off guard that Ryan was talking to her like a child and even though she knew he had a right to be irritated she did not have much say in the situation. She tried her best to control her own anger building inside of her but this conversation was NOT going the way she hoped.
"Rach, do you understand me? I do NOT want you riding in the same car with him the whole way there. I get you have to go, but you don't have to ride with him!" Ryan restated.
"Who in the hell are you to tell me what to do? I am NOT a child and I would hope you would trust me more. What, you think I am going to fall for Cole again just because we are stuck in the same car with 5 other people? Really?" Her anger began to seep through, but she was confused and upset and missed Ryan and straight pissed that this conversation was even happening.
Damn It!! Ryan calm down!!! His mind pleaded him to retreat and regroup. Taking a deep breath to regain control, he tried again. "Look, Rach, I am not trying to talk down to you, I know you are not a child. You just have to see this from my point of view. One, I have waited all week to talk to you and then get all these messages and a voicemail where you are clearly upset and I cant do a damn thing about it. Two, I am listening to my girlfriend be upset yet again by some asshole she talked about caring about for years, and I am not suppose to react? Really?" Ryan took another deep breath. "Sweetheart, listen to me. You fell for him once before and it scares the hell out of me that you will fall again because I am not there to be the one to hold you or see you every damn day."
"I do not know what else to tell you Ryan. I am being honest with you and what? You rather me have not told you what was going on and why I am frustrated? You want me to only tell you all the good stuff and deal with my frustrations alone? I may be new to the whole relationship deal, but I believe we both should be able to talk about the good and not so good parts of our lives. I will do my best to avoid him like I have been, but Ryan we have classes and this whole choir trip and I can only do so much. I just....I don't want to loose you." Her tears returned and she sniffled in the phone.
Ryan could not bear the thought of her crying, but he was still pissed. Maybe they needed to get off the phone before they both did more harm. He needed to calm down and deep down did not want to hurt her. "Listen, Rach, You can't avoid the guy but will you at least not ride with him there and back? Please? For me? I think we both need some rest right now so I am going to go and will talk to you later. Ok?"
Her tears tripled and she could barely breath or catch her breath. Was he going to break up with her? Panic set in and only one word came out mixed with heavy tears, "Ok." And with that, the phone went silent. Her heart was breaking and her mind was betraying her with thoughts of them being over before it really began and it was all Cole's flipping fault! She wanted to slap him and the more she thought about it she resolved to do just that- slap Cole!
