The Story Of Us

Chapter 21; CheaterCheater

**Johnathan's POV**

  I walked up to her, she shook her head in disbelief when she saw me.

"You shouldn't be here, seriously Ryan-"

"Shut up!" I cut her off. I edged closer and grabbed her by the arm.

"What's really going on?" I asked her.

She wouldn't look at me. "I lied to your friend, Katie." She looked down at the ground and jerked her hand away from me.

Damn it. WAIT. What did Katie know? I reached for my phone when Lis interrupted me.

"What are you doing?" Lis asked me, she was standing beside Jackson.

"Nothing." I replied, putting my phone away.

  "Jackson will take me home." Lis told me, then smiled trying to lighten things up.

I walked to my car, I had to get to Katie. I drove to her house, with only Ashley on my mind.

**Katie's POV**

  When Ryan showed up at my doorstep, I instantly knew. She must have ratted me out. I thought harshly.

"Ryan-" He cut me off.

"What did she tell you?!" He screamed, he was mad.

"What have you got to be mad for?! You didn't tell me you two even-"

"WHAT. DID. SHE. TELL. YOU." Ryan demanded. I started to get scared.

"She told me she was pregnant." I told him, truthfully.

He leaned close to my face, staring me straight in the eye.

"She lied." He told me, with out blinking.

That bitch! I thought, I don't even know what everyone saw in her. I tried to call Cal to tell him everything, after all, we were still friends. I know he liked me, but I couldn't date him if all he wanted was to..

"Who are you calling?"Ryan asked me, he was calm by now.

"No one." Ryan growled, he knew I was lying.

"Come with me, we're gonna see what the real reason is." Ryan told me, I had no choice but to obey.

Ryan was different... it was like he changed. He was so serious and abrupt, as if he were some kind of detective. The him, he seemed like he didn't care anymore, like he was some kind of robots on a mission. Yet I could feel he was really falling apart, but I couldn't say anything. I didn't know what to say.  Ryan started coughing, and he pulled over.

"What's wrong?" I asked him, worriedly.

"It's nothing."He answered with a rough tone, he started to cough more.

I even saw something come out. Was that.. blood? This wasn't good for him.

"I'll drive." I told him.

"But you're-"

"It wasn't a question." I cut him off this time.

He sat there in his car agitated, but he started to look pale. He checked his phone a couple times then cut it off. What was he doing?

"Ashley's house is right around the corner. " He told me pointing.

I nodded, then turned to her house.

"What's your plan?"

"Stake out." He answered, as if it were natural.

"Reminds me of old times." I told him, leaning back in my seat.
