The Waiting Game (Overload/Ryan Robertson)

The Truth

We fell asleep on the bed hugging until I was woken by the door. I got up trying not to wake Ryan and answered it to an out of breath Ollie and Joey.

'Is Ryan with you? We can't find him' Ollie said quickly. 'He's in here asleep, he came to see if I was alright' I replied. Ollie let out a sigh of relief and relaxed.

'Sorry we woke you, we'll go back down to the water park now' Joey replied.

With that they left and I lay back down next to Ryan.

He soon began to stir and within minutes he was awake.

He sat up and put his arm around me holding me close. We sat in silence, not awkward silence though.

'Georgia?' Ryan said breaking the silence. 'Yes?' I responded almost immediately. 'Do you want to come on,

Um, a date with me?' He asked hesitantly. 'Of course I would' I replied and he engulfed me into a hug with a sigh if relief.

We lay back down and started talking about everything. We laughed none stop and it was perfect.

Everything was going perfect until he asked the one question I couldn't answer.

'Georgia, why did you wear a top and shorts today? You shouldn't be insecure, you're perfect'

I didn't know what to reply, I couldn't tell him, I just couldn't.

'Its nothing Ryan' I replied. 'You can tell me you know'. 'Ryan it's nothing, please, just leave it'. 'I cant help you if you don't tell me Georgia, I care'.

Why does he want to know so bad? If he knew he'd probably run a mile. It's best he doesn't know, nobody needs to know.

'You don't need to know Ryan, nobody does, I don't need help, I've managed on my own for ages now, I don't need help' I shouted instantly regretting it.

'But I can help you, I'll be there for you, just let me help' he replied softly.

'You really want to know so bad? I have scars Ryan, all over my body and I hate it. I hate knowing I was so weak. I hate knowing I let people do this to me. I hate it. I hate everything about me and I am ashamed of myself. But you know what? I've survived, I went through it alone and I came out stronger than ever.' I replied instantly regretting telling him. At this point the tears were flowing freely down my tear scarred face and I didn't know what to do.

'Georgia, I'm so sorry, I'm always here and I'll always support you. If I ever find these people who made you feel this way I won't hesitate to make them feel how they've made you feel. You deserved none of that' he said hugging me tightly.

I was surprised at his reaction. I thought he'd just walk away, I'm a mess, who wouldn't.

'I love you Georgia, stay strong for me, ok?'

'I love you too Ryan, I will, thank you' I said smiling at him. 'Why are you thanking me?' He asked looking Confused. 'For understanding'. With that he smiled at me and smiled. He then leant in and kissed me and for that moment the world felt like ours.
