I was on the floor. His hands were pushing down on my shoulders. He was kissing me. All over my body even though I had clothes on.
"Come on get into it." I looked over at my computer. It was still closed. Damn. So, I looked at the clock on the wall. Where did time go? I had a few minutes until lunch. Grace should be here any minute.
"Close your eyes and ENJOY IT BABE." He growled. He lifted me up and pushed me into the work chair. I glared at him.
"I hate you. You belong in hell. You are a crazy psycho Ryan. And I almost feel bad because other than that you're perfect. You were nice and-and funny and a gentlemen and sexy. Now, you're scary. You're forceful. You're not patient and you can't take a hint. If you were to get help. Ryan, I would have loved to been with you. But you wouldn't leave me alone. You wouldn't let me have time and you honestly, need help. Maybe you have some kind of sex addiction thing. Maybe you, i dont know. But you need medicine or a therapist." The tears ran down my face. All this time I may have been blaming him for something he couldn't control. Ryan stood in front of me. Staring at the wall. He looked down shaking his head.
"Do you not think i know this? Amber, I've never felt this way about anybody. You just do something to me. I can't control myself. And, i know. I know Amber. I know I need help. I-" he sat down on the floor.
"I-I want help. I want a girlfriend. I want a family and a nice house with a dog. We share similar dreams. The man before the real me came out, he is me. But as I got to know you, I fell more in love and, that piece of me came back. It was gone for...probably 4 years. But--" he was in pain. And crying like me. In a way, I wanted to forgive him.
"Ryan...I--don't know what to say."
"I'll just say I'm sorry..." He held his hand out. I took it and he sat me up.
"Have a good day Amber..." He patted my shoulder and left. I sat back down. Fixing my hair. Straightening my clothes. Taking deep breaths. What just happened? Ryan admitted his crazy self in front of me. And cried. Never have I seen a man cry before. It made the whole thing even weirder.
"Hey! How's everything?" Grace asked. I jumped.
"Fine-fine, let's go. And-not talk about Ryan."
