Brelynn's POV

I'm back in Denver, I left quickly after Ricky and I's mishap. Skyler is staying with Auntie Ryan and Uncle Josh until Saturday. While Ricky tries to get Quinn out of the house and I get a free week kinda. I mean i'll miss Skyler but i'll get to hang out with someone other than her and the guys. Which will be nice and something I kinda need. I was getting out of the Uber when, Brit, Koby and Angie were standing outside the shop, waiting on me. 

"I'm getting her bags. Move your fat ass Brit!" Koby screamed, going into the trunk and pushing Brit out of the way. 

"Looks like some of your friends are excited you are back." The Uber said and I nodded, chuckling. He handed me the receipt and I smiled. Brit slammed the trunk shut, Koby and Brit both smiled at me. As the Uber drove off.  

"I'm back bitches!" I screamed and they ran over to me. Tackling me with hugs and kisses. I giggled and hugged them back. 

"We missed you! I'm glade you are back." Brit said in my ear and I smiled, patting her on the back. 

"Yeah, you bitch! You need to come back more often!" Koby yelled and I chuckled.

"Well, now I can. Because Ricky takes Skyler one week and I take her another week." I said and they all smiled at me. 

"I'm glade you too are working things out with Ricky." Angie said, walking over to me and giving me a hug. I smiled, patting her on the back and she backed away. 

"Okay if Ricky asks or anyone other than Ryan-Ashley asks then i'm at my grandma's hanging out with her. Okay?" I asked, looking at all of them and they all glanced at one another. 

"Oh, god. What did you do?" Brit asked, as we all walked into the shop and I smiled. I sat down on the desk I sat down on so many times before. I looked at them, the crowded around me like we used to. 

"Well, Ricky has a new girl and when he introduced me. Well, I said that my grandma was sick and that I need to come down here right away. Because they didn't know how long she'd be alive for." I said, with a smile and they all rolled their eyes. 

"But I thought that Ricky was dumping the new girl because she made Skyler uncomfortable?" Koby asked, and they all nodded, looking back at me. 

"Yeah, he is. But we also kissed the day I went over to talk to him. So less than 48 hours ago." I said, looking down at my knees. 

"Brelynn you hoe!" Angie said, looking at me and I smiled, looking up at her. 

"I didn't mean for it to happen. It just did." I said and she rolled her eyes. Then looked back at me with the oh-really-your-gonna-pull-that-one face. I smiled, innocently and she shook her head. 

"Brelynn when have you ever just had something happen. You know that we all believe things happen for a reason." Brit said and I frowned at her. 

"You are supposed to be on my side." I said, making a pouty face at her and she rolled her eyes. Shaking her head at me and I smiled back at Angie. But she wan't having it and i sighed. 

"You are right. I know you are right. You are always right." I said and she nodded. 

"So, how do you really feel about Ricky?" Koby asked and I looked down, shrugging. 

"I know i'm supposed to hate him. I want to hate him but I can't. My heart or my brain or whatever doesn't comprehend what 'hate Ricky' means." I said, running my hands threw my hair and they all nodded. 

"Well, maybe you should give him another chance." Brit said and I looked at her with my crazy eyes. "Hey it was only a suggestion no need to go crazy." She said and I nodded.

"I love you Brit, but I don't know if I could take another heart-ache that he put me threw. I mean I got physically sick when I saw him with that girl." I said, remembering that night. The more I tried not to think about it, the more it was in my head. 

"Maybe you should try giving him another chance." Koby said, looking me in the eyes and I knew that he was being serious. I sighed, running my hands threw my hair and looking down at my shoes. I stared at my shoes, hoping they would tell me what i should do. But they are only shoes, so they didn't answer my question. 

"Brelynn you uh, have company. We are gonna leave you." Angie said, pushing Koby and Brit out of the general area. I turned around and Ricky was standing in the shop doorway. I looked at him, then back at my shoes. But they are only shoes. I walked over to him. 

"I knew your grandma wasn't sick. Because if she was, you'd be in tears. Plus the you would have told me sooner than the night of where you met Quinn." He said, tucking some of my hair behind my ear and i blushed, looking down. 

"Yeah, you know me too well." I said, looking at him and he nodded. He looked down at me and I gave a small smile. 

"I'm sorry about everything." He said and I nodded. "I know that I don't deserve this but is there any way you'd take me back?" He asked and I thought of everything. From the incident to finding out everything, to Quinn. 

"Ricky you are either in a relationship with Quinn or just got out of one. We both need a break okay? But if we feel the same way in a while than maybe we can talk about it again." I said, he sighed and took one step closer. My heart started to pound out of my chest. 

"We can do it that way. But I know you still love me and I still love you. It's just taken a minute to break away. I want to work it out." He said and I nodded. 

"This is what I want to do." I said and he nodded.
