Chapter 24 (Ryan)

RYAN'S P.O.V. 

"It's fine" she said before closing the door and leaving me alone in the car. 

"Fuck" I mumbled while smacking my hand on the steering wheel. 

I was holding in the anger and rage i had built the second my eyes landed on the flowers in his hand. i knew if i showed Kris how angery i really was she would be mad at me for acting this way.

who does he think he is? bringing my girlfriend flowers? really?

My jealousy is overwhelming and unnecessary. It was getting in the way of things .. JAKE was getting in the way of things. Jake wants Kristen and I know it. I have every right to get mad and be jealous. Jake is a great guy, he has more to offer. Every time I see him or hear his name and voice, I just burn up inside. I have a right to be mad if my girlfriend is talking to another guy. He needs to fuckin back off of her.

Why did Kristen pick me instead of Jake? Why? I have been itching to ask but it never came up. 

I wanted to apologize for my behavior but Kristen just shut me out. I got of the car and walked over to the picnic table. Jake wasn't there yet. I sat next to Kristen. We exchanged looks then looked away. 5 minutes later, Jake arrived and sat across from me. I was burning up inside and felt like pounding his face. I had to get out of here, I would explode if I didn't. 

"I'm going to get a drink" I stood up. 

"Mom's home" James said. Indicating that no one could drink till she left. 

"Ight" I looked at Kris with a warming glare then walked towards the back door. 

I opened the door, stepped in and closed it. I got myself a coke and opened it.

"Ryan" I heard from behind me. 

I turned around and my eyes fell on the tiny blonde, Olivia, James' sister. 

"Hi" I smiled. 

"Hey" her eyes trailed over me "what uhm- what are you doing here?" 

"Got thirsty" I chuckled. 

"Oh" she laughed.

"Ry Ry!!!!" Came in Lynn Murphy, the mom in the house.  

I smiled. 

She walked over and squeezed me tight. 

"Mom, you're choking him" Olivia laughed as she walked out of the kitchen.

"Sorry, hun" she pulled back. 

"It's fine" I laughed. 

"Are you hungry yet?" She asked. 

"No no, we ordered chinese"

"good" she laughed while sitting down "sit down, sit down" 

I did. 

"You know Olivia still has that huge crush on you" she smiled. 

"Great" I sarcastically smiled. 

"She thinks your .. Her exact words, I swear. Mom, he's hot" Lynn said. 

"Oh god" I put my head down. 

"Ahahah .. Talking about girls .." 

"I knew you would ask" I chuckled while raising my head back up.

"Her name is Kristen right? What happen!?" She said with excitment.

"Well she-"  

The backdoor opened. Lynn and I turned around. Kristen had walked in. I winked at Lynn and stood up.
