The Ex

Chapter 59

Here I stood at Ryan's front door. He opened it. In a casual yet business type outfit. He had a suitcase. And a bag. His car keys in his mouth because he didn't have hands.
"Before we go, can I come in?" I asked.
"Yeah...sure." Every since the day, he had been moody. Not talkative. Of course it was still awkward. But I was a good person. And wanted to help. Maybe he could have that dream life someday if he got the help he needed. He sat down on the couch.
"We have to leave soon. What do you need to say?"
"That this is along time Ryan. And I'm confident in every way that you will survive this and come back a new person. How do you feel?"
"Nervous. And pretty horny." He said. I laughed.
"I just want to appologize for everything again Amber, I'm a horrible person and I want you to know that I realized that. And I'm going to do something about it. So I never hurt somebody like I did you...you deserve so much better..." I didn't want to say anything. So I just leaned over and hugged him. He hugged me back sighing.
"Shall we go?"
"We shall..." I helped him with his bags and got him in his car. He was taking a plane and wanted me to drive his car back. So I was riding with him. He got in and out the key in. Sighing.
"Never had I thought I would be here..." He said, shaking his head.
"Me either..."

I have to admit, I wish I would feel guilty about this, I wish that I just sent him to jail. But i know I'm not the only one that has a hard time getting over somebody that not only loved you, but is desperate and needs a future. We had about 3 hours until we were going to be at the airport, so we stopped and got food. Taylor would text me every 30 minutes. Checking on me.
"Everything ok?"
"It's fine...❣"
"Good...keep me updated. Love you..."
"Love you too..."
Ryan handed me my drink from the drive through and we parked in the lot to eat it.
"I can't believe you moved on so quickly..."
"I didn't move on, I just-wanted to have somebody i know could protect me from you..." I gulped.
"Damn, you sure know how to make me feel worse and worse don't you? It's hard for me...this is so hard. I'm doing this for you Amber. You are slowly changing me. To be a better person."
"I want you to have a future love life Ryan. You deserve it."
"I feel like such a criminal. And, I couldn't control my own mind." He was shaking his head and started unwrapping his burger.
"Ryan, it's fine. It's over. And we are getting help..." He nodded his head and smiled. Im shocked that Taylor was this casual with me spending this much time with him. Ryan knowing that Taylor was a cop, I felt better. I gained trust.
