<BrOhm> A Simple Hello

Chapter 37

Bryce's Pov-

I honestly thought Ryan would scoff and walk away.
Thought he would just leave.

But the last time I saw him gave me hope, he didn't say we were done.
The silence killed me though.

I was about to profusely apologize and explain everything because when this all happened I was in to much of a shock to explain.
Trying to gather my words I paused for a second just looking at him, a happy smile from seeing him.

Suddenly Ryan hugged me.

This feels so nice.

"Lets go talk." He took ahold of my hand and pulled me into the house.

There was this giddy feeling inside me and I got so happy.

I'm going to get to explain everything.

We sat on Jonathan's sofa, still holding hands.
"I'm so glad I'm going to get to explain everything-" I started rambling and his eyes widened. "What?" I asked afraid that maybe he wanted to make it official, that we were done.

I guess he saw the fear in my expression and hugged me again.
"I can't understand you when you talk really fast."

I sighed relieved. "Okay, I'm just going to start this with I'm so happy to see you. And I want you to know that I never wanted to like have a," I put my hands in the air for air quotes,"'A break' or 'freedom.'"

I paused checking his expressions but it was blank.
Might as well go on.

"I didn't want freedom from you. I love you so much that I'm surprised I didn't ask you to be attached to my hip in some way. When I said that I had talked to him on the phone saying I wanted freedom from my dad, school and everything except you. I made it so clear but I don't understand why he thought I meant you were being clingy." I started talking faster and Ryan smiled slightly.

"What about your promised date? And him saying you loved him. Oh, and saying he loved you." He asked his voice kinda silent.

"The promised date thing was something I wanted to do to shut him up. I was going to go to like the park or something and talk about you none stop, so he would get the idea. I don't know about me saying I loved him, I don't remember saying that, I've only told one person I loved them other than friends and family."

I was looking him straight in his eyes, "You are the only person I loved and will always love. Now Hayden is a weirdo who I blocked because he wouldn't stop blowing up my phone. And I know you probably hate me and I understand-"

He raised his eyebrows, "I don't hate you. I will never fucking hate you. God, Bryce I love you so much. And I want to have what we had before this thing got blown out of proportion."

I was blushing so hard. I tackled him into a hug on the couch, kissing his cheek over and over again.

"But, no more hiding shit like this." He said laughing.

"I promise. I will tell you everything." I pecked him on his lips.
He had a huge smile on his face, "Love you."

I rested my head on his chest, "Love you too."

I lifted my head when I heard a cough at the doorway.
There stood Jon.
He looked confused.
But saw how happy we looked and grinned, "Get a room."

Ryan chuckled, getting up slightly.
"Not in your house. You and Luke probably-"

"Not true!" Jonathan exclaimed, flustered.

"Right. You and Evan bang-" he continued.

Jonathan walked away and we heard him yell, "Fake news!"
And Craig and Smitty following him up with several other memes.

Ayyyyyyy
