What You Wanted (A OneRepublic Fanfic)

Chapter 9- The Truth Comes Out

I was lost in the moment. His lips were so soft. It was as if time seemed to stop. His lips felt so good against mine. Suddenly I was brought back into reality, and I pulled away from Ryan.

"What's wrong?" He asked in confusion.

"Ryan, we can't be doing this! Oh my god what have I done? John was right!" I said getting up from the bench.

"Johana wait!" He called behind me and I started to run.

Suddenly, I felt his hand grab my arm, and pull me towards him.

"Jo just please hear me ou-"

I cut him off by grabbing the lapels of his leather jacket, kissing him on the lips. His kiss was just way more different than how John and I kiss. When John kisses me, it's really rough, like he wasn't interested in kissing me, but right now with Ryan, it's so passionate, it's like he's pouring out all of his emotions in this one kiss.

The two of us pulled away catching our breaths. I buried my face into my hands and started to cry. I couldn't believe what just happened. I cheated on my boyfriend.... With my best friend.

Suddenly I felt Ryan's arms wrap around me and pull me close.

"It's okay. You need to let it out." He whispers, not caring about the people who were staring at us.

"Come on let's go sit down." He said. I pulled away.

We walked back over the bench and sat down. So many thoughts were going through my head. Ryan just said that he's in love with me. But I love John. At least, I think I do.

I'm just so confused right now.

"I'm sorry." Ryan said breaking the silence.

I looked up at him and just stared at him.

"I'm sorry. I never should've kissed you."

He open his mouth to say more but I raised my hand and he stopped.

"Ryan, we can't be together. I'm with John. I love him and he loves me." I said as I wiped the tears from my eyes.

He looks at me and starts to get angry.

"You really think he loves you?" He asked cocking his head to the side and raising an eyebrow.

I stare at him confused.

"What are you getting at?" I asked.

"Tonight at the concert, I saw your little boyfriend in the middle of the crowd, making out with some redhead." He said cautiously and I start to feel the world start to crumble beneath my feet.

"No Ryan there's no way John's cheating on me. You're lying." I said shaking my head.

Suddenly, Ryan pulls out his phone and starts to tap on his screen.

"I didn't think I would have to come to this but I have proof that he's cheating on you. I wouldn't lie to you Jo." He answered as he handed me his phone.

I look into the screen and I couldn't believe my eyes. It was John. Kissing another woman! A younger woman! She couldn't have been more than eighteen years old.

I put my face in my hands and started to cry.

"Ryan, Jo!" We gotta go!" I heard Zach say.

I nodded and and got up. Ryan grabbed my stuff and we boarded the plane.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

(Eight hours later....)

Ryan's P.O.V.

"Jo?" I whispered as we finally got to our hotel room in London.

We all have our separate rooms but I'm not going to let Jo alone after everything that's happened.

"Hmmm?" Jo groans as her eyes fluttered open.

They looked puffy and bloodshot. I wouldn't blame her if she was crying in her sleep.

"We're here." I said softly.

She gets up and handed me my jacket as it was pretty cold here.

I shrugged it on and helped her out of the van. The seven of us got up to the front desk of our hotel where a man with blond hair stood.

"Hi we're here to check in." Said Jo as managed to be herself for a while.

"Ah OneRepublic! Splendid! Let me get you your key cards." Said the man as he walked towards the wall behind him and pulled them out of a compartment.

"Here you go." He said as he handed each of us a key card.

The guys went their separate ways and headed to the pub next door. I followed Jo into the elevator.

"You're not going to the pub with the guys?" She asked.

"No, I'm just gonna take a shower and get some sleep." I answered.

"Ryan, I know what you're doing. I'll be okay I'm not a little girl anymore." She sighed.

The doors closed and I started to feel a static surround the both of us. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Jo run her finger across her bottom lip. It makes me wonder.

"Di-did you enjoy it?" I asked breaking the silence.

"Enjoy what?" She asked.

"Our kiss. Did you enjoy it?" I asked as I turned towards her.

"Ryan, I don't want to talk about it." She said feeling uncomfortable.

"I'm sorry." I said rubbing the back of my head.

We got up to the ninth floor and walked to the end of the hallway into my hotel room. We walked in and and placed our suitcases on the couch.

"You want to shower first or should I?" I asked as I sat down on the edge of the bed.

"You go first." She answered as she started unpacking.

"Alright. But we still need to talk about this." I answered as I started taking off my shoes and socks.

"Fine. If it'll get you off my back." She said rolling her eyes.

I shook my head and walked into the bathroom. As I turned on the water, I stripped out of my clothes and and got in. As I closed my eyes and let the steam engulf me, I couldn't help but think about that kiss. Her lips, moving in sync with mine. It confirmed my feelings for her are true. I got out of the shower and got dressed in some sweatpants and a t-shirt and headed out of the bathroom to see Jo passed out on the floor.

"Jo? Jo!" I shouted. I ran towards her and placed her on my lap.

I started running my fingers through her hair. Shit! She had an anxiety attack. I picked her up and carried her into bathroom. I placed her in the shower and turned on the freezing cold water. Come on Jo wake up!

Suddenly she starts coughing and her eyes flutter open.

"Ryan what the fuck?! I'm not in the mood for your stupid pranks and why does my head hurt?!" She shouted at me.

I turned off the water and handed her a towel.

"It wasn't a prank Johana. I found you passed on the floor." I said calmly.

She puts her head in her hands and starts crying.

I helped her up and wrapped my arms around her.

"It's okay baby. Just let it all out." I whispered in her ear.

She sobs harder into my chest.

"Why did he cheat on me? Was I not good enough?" She sniffed.

"Hey hey hey! Listen to me. You're too good for that asshole. He doesn't deserve someone as beautiful and talented as you. You deserve somebody better than him."

She wipes her eyes and looks at me.

"You deserve... Me."
