"Ryan... you're back!" I grinned in joy. He brought his hand to his hair and runs his hand through his short hair. "Your hair..." It's been so long since I've seen him with short hair.

"Yeah, finally decided to cut it." He was watching me stare at him causing him to smirk. "Does it look bad?"

"No, no." I shook my head. "You look quite handsome." I couldn't help but say. His smirk grew while his cheeks showed a tint of red.

"Was I not handsome before?" He teased. I felt myself turn red in embarrassment. He chuckled at me before taking the seat in front of me. "Well, you look beautiful like always." He reached over and took one fry.

I sat there not knowing what the hell to do or say. He just complimented you, Jannalyn! I felt my whole face turn bright red the more I thought about it. I knew I was causing this awkward tension between us so I just thanked him.

"Thank you, Ry." I quickly glanced at him, sending him a sweet kind smile. When I looked up at him, he was already looking at me with a smirk on his face. I felt my body should shiver under his gaze. What the hell is this feeling? I suddenly got nervous and shy around him.

"You're welcome, princess." He dropped his left eyelid in a wink. He winked at me. He fucking winked at me. I shifted uncomfortably in my seat. It started becoming hot for some unknown reason. "What are you doing here all alone if I may ask?"

"Oh, just wanted to grab some dinner." I stuffed a fry in my mouth.

"All by yourself?" I nodded. "Where's lover boy?" He mocked. I shot him a glare which he ignored by taking another fry.

"He's... I don't know." He rose furrowed his eyebrows at me, tilted his head while he looked at me confused. "What about you?" I changed the subject because I wasn't in the mood the talk about Matthew and where he is. Ryan noticed me being uncomfortable and answered the question.

"Same as you. Grabbing some dinner since no one is at home." He shrugged his shoulders, reaching over to take another fry but I slapped his hand away.

"Andrea's not home?" He distracted me by pointing at something behind me. I looked over my shoulder to see what he was pointing at but it was a trick. I looked back at him and he was stuffing half of my fries into his mouth.

"No, I moved into an apartment." He laughed at my face when I was looking at him with shock. My eyes were wide and my jaw was on the floor.

"So you decided to move, huh? Why? You miss us?" I teased him.

"Yeah, I missed you." I expected to be uncomfortable and weirded out but I wasn't. He was surprised too. "No, but yeah I did miss all of you guys." He blushed. I knew he was about to take some of my fries again for like the hundredth time. I moved my plate of fries far away from him and gave him a pouty look. "Don't worry, I'll buy you some more fries." He playfully rolled his eyes. I happily smile and let him have some of my fries only because he was going to buy me some more.

"How far do you live away from us?" I asked.

"I live in the same apartment building as Andrea and Luke." He answered. "Speaking of Luke," He swallowed. "He asked me if he can live with me for a while. Did I miss something while I was gone?"
