I looked at Ryan confused, yet frustrated due to not being able to understand where he was getting at. He eventually realized it and continued on with his statement.
"Okay then.. Well I need you to listen and try not to flip the bottle to soon. A few weeks ago I noticed Liz sneaking of with such a girl. At first I thought it was a friend so I considered it normal, but after awhile I noticed the little things. I eventually confronted her, but she said it was her cousin and that she had family stuff happening is all. That is why the other day I asked about Liz's grandma. Well just after lunch I saw them again. Only difference was they were locking lips.. I didn't know how to tell you, plus it was a huge surprise. I mean would cheat on you !? You're so phenomenally gorgeous, and you have an amazing personally! I mean, uh-" Ryan's face started to flush, and I couldn't help but smile a bit.
Suddenly it all started to sink in, and I couldn't help but fall apart. How could this be? My sweet Liz? Cheating on me? Impossible, yet I saw her first hand. I start to cry and cover my face, trying to shield myself so Ryan doesn't have to see me fall apart as much.
"Oh Vi.. I am so sorry. I wish I would have known better. I knew she wasn't good, but she has us all fooled."
I couldn't speak. There were just no words to describe how I feel. All I know is I feel safe here in Ryan's arms. Yes, he didn't tell me as soon as he knew, but he also just found out. I can't blame him. I can't blame anyone, except for me.
I took a deep breath, sniffling and wiping my eyes. I look up at Ryan and see the concern in his eyes. I bite my lip, gaining my thoughts as I slowly begin to speak.
"I-i just.. I don't understand why this happened. I tried so hard. I was so committed to her. I really thought this was it, but I guess some infinites don't last. I'm not even mad, just hurt. I blame myself more then anything. If I was enough for her this would have never happened!"
I quickly stand up, hitting the hallway door frame next to the couch and bursting out even more.
"I didn't deserve her to start with! I'm not good enough for anyone. Gosh, why was I so stupid! I hate myself, I really do!" My back slides against the wall as I fall to the ground sobbing once more.
I just couldn't take it anymore. So many fears and insecurities. Before I realize it I feel warm arms wrapping around me and pulling me closer. I give in leaning against his chest and listen to him breathing as the tears slow down.
"Violet, I hope you know that none of what you said is true. You are such amazing, beautiful, talented and kind hearted person. I honestly.. maybe I shouldn't be saying this but-" he paused for a second as I looked up at him, slightly confused. "Violet, I love you. Not just as a Friend but more, and please don't worry about Luke. There's some things that no one even knows. Like the fact he is actually straight.. I found out when we came around our half year mark. He told me he had fell for a girl that attended online school. We kept dating as a cover up so he could meet her.." He sighed stopping for a minute to look me directly in the eyes.
I was in pure shock. I couldn't move or even speak at the moment. Was he messing with me?
"Please, please don't freak out. I know this is all a lot and I am so sorry. I-I shouldn't have said anything. If you want to leave I understand-"
"Ryan, please. Just stop for a second. You're fine I promise. Its just a surprise, but I guess what I'm gonna say next is going to be shocking to." I took a deep breath before I looked at him again. "Ryan, I like you too-"
