Chapter 32: Respect

Ricky's POV

I had apologized to Sam and I realized that I was jealous of him.  Jealous that Missy had moved on and might possibly like Sam. I knew it was wrong of me to act out of anger on him. I sat on the couch just thinking when Kian sat down next to me and pulled me out of my thoughts.

"Ricky, you should tell her how you feel before it's too late. You should also consider breaking up with Shelby, she's a wonderful girl but I think you need to tell her the truth why you started to date her." Kian said.

"Thanks Kian, but I think I'm going to stay with Shelby for awhile longer. I really, really like her and I can't seem to hurt her." I said.

"You already hurt Missy twice don't you think Shelby can handle it since you two are best friends after all. You don't want to make things go deeper than they are right now with Shelby." Kian said.

"That's so true, thanks Kian." I said, hugging Kian.

"Don't trip about it, just know that Missy loves you still but you don't wanna hurt Sam as well since it seems that he likes Missy." Kian said, as he stood up and walked up to his room. I sat thinking for awhile when Sam walked in to get his phone from the couch.

Sam's POV

I had walked into the living room when I noticed Ricky crying on the couch. I grabbed my phone and I was about to leave when I turned back and sat down next to him.

"Ricky, I'm sorry. I didn't plan on liking Missy. It just happened out of nowhere. She didn't realize she liked me as well. It just happened" I said.

"It's alright man, you know how much I tried getting her back. But you deserve her now. I'll respect your guys decision. I really, really like Shelby and I don't wanna mess that up. I think I was just jealous of you that you could have her and I couldn't." Ricky said, as he looked up to me.

"Thanks man." I said, as I heard the front door open and saw Missy walking in.

Missy's POV

I was on my way back to the O2L house. It had been a few hours and decided that I should check on Sam and the boys. I parked behind Jc's car. I had just walked in the O2L house when I saw Sam sitting in the living room.

"Come in here." Sam said. I walked into the living room to see Ricky sitting next to Sam. I froze for a second before Ricky spoke up.

"I'm letting you go...I'll respect whatever you two want to do with your life if you guys date or not. I'll respect anything. I've hurt you twice Missy and I don't wanna do that again. I'm sorry for every pain I have ever cause you." Ricky said, as he stood up and pulled me into a hug.

"Okay." Is all I could say. Nothing came out, just pure silence. How could Ricky give up on me so fast? Wasn't he the one that said he loved me? Oh right 'LOVED'. I glanced at Sam and he nodded and left the room so I could talk to Ricky.

"Ricky, I still haven't gotten over you 100% but I do like Sam and thank you for apologizing you're an amazing friend. I know how hard it is for you to do this. I think I can finally say I can trust you again." I said. Before I left to go find Sam, Ricky pulled me in for one last kiss. Even though Ricky was dating Shelby it didn't feel wrong. It's just closure and I hope she understands.
