McKenna's POV:

Rydel put in the movie and I tried not to hold back my tears. 'I am inlove with you Hazel.' Augustus waters said. "I wish someone would love me and treat me the way he treats her." I told Rydel. "Someone does." I know she was referring to Ross. "No, that someone doesn't." I felt tears coming out of my eyes. "Aww, please don't cry McKenna." I sniffed. "I'm sorry. I can't help it. It's just, I love... I love him but he hurt me. It's just painful when you're hurt by one you love most." I wiped my tears. "How can I help?" I shook my head. "It's fine. I shouldn't be troubling you with all of this." I stated. "No, really. I'm your best friend and I'm always going to be here for you." I smiled. "Thanks Del." She then reached in her pocket and pulled something out. "Here, Ross wants you to keep it." I took it from her. "Why does he care. He broke the promise." I frowned putting it on the table. "He said he was going to try to make things right adn just incase you don't forgive him, he wants you to keep just to remind you of him." I smiled a bit and put it back on my finger. "Do you think you'll forgive him?" She asked. "I... I don't know. Do you think I should?" I thought a bit. "Well, he did cry. He also felt really bad. Maybe you should, but slowly." I turned my head. "What do you mean slowly?" I asked. "Well, clearly you two aren't exactly friends so try to rebuild that with him and then work back up to what you two were before." I was unsure of this. "I don't know if I can forgive and forget." She nodded. "Yeah, that's fine. This only happened today so it will take some time. Maybe we should get some rest." I agreed. I went to lay in bed. I grabbed my pillow and held it tight towrds me. Rydel was passed out a couple minutes later. I still couldn't sleep. I started thinking about Ross. The thought of him used to make me smile but now it makes me cry. I began to sob. "McKenna, are you OK?" Rydel called. "Yeah, I'm fine. You should get some sleep." She started to get up. "No, I can't let you cry yourself to sleep." I sniffled. "Rydel, there is nothing we can do at this point. He made his choice." She sat next to me rubbing my back. "Yeah, a very stupid choice. I hate seeing you like this. I hate that he did this to you." I wiped my tears. "Thanks Rydel. I think I'll just stay up for a while." I sat up. "Alright, just make sure you get some sleep. Listen, your my bestfriend and I want the best for you. I want you to be strong for me OK? It kills me to see you so down." I smiled. "Thanks Del, you really did make me feel better." I gave her a hug and tried to fall asleep. I slowly began to doze off until I fell asleep. I woke up the next morning to the sound of Rydel's voice. "McKenna, wake up." I slowly opened my eyes. "Ugh, I don't want to get up." She dragged me out of bed. "McKennaaa. Pleaaase? I don't want you sitting here alone. You can sit between me and Riker." I got up. "Ok fine." I agreed and went to shower.

Ross's POV:

I I woke up the next morning to the sound of Rocky's voice. "Dude. Up, Now!" I groaned. "No, i can't face everyone right now." I said crawling under the sheets. "You have to. We are all going for breakfast and everybody is going." He ripped the sheets off the bed. "I don't want to. I can't." He sat on the bed. "Listen bro. I know your upset about McKenna but you'll have to face her at some point. Besides, she's more upset than you and she's coming." I was surprised she was coming. Knowing her, she'll try to act stronger than she really is. I decide that I'll go. "Fine, I guess I'll come." I got up and went to take a shower.

McKenna's POV:

Rydel chose my outfit while I showered. She chose mint green pants, black boot and a shirt that said love fades. "Really? Love fades." I laughed. "Yeah. Hope it's not too obvious. I shook my head. She then did my hair and makeup. I looked in the mirror. "Ugh, Rydel my eyes are all red and puffy from crying." I complained. "Here you go." She handed me a pair of sun glasses.

"Thanks." I smiled as I put them on. After she was ready, it was time to leave. I really didn't want to go. Rydel pulled me outside where everyone was waiting. I didn't even look at Ross. We went to a restaurant across the street. I sat next to Rydel and Riker as it was said. Everyone ordered but me. "McKenna sweety, are you not going to eat?" My mom asked making everyone look at me. I shook my head. "Why, aren't you hungry?" I shook my head once more. "Listen sweety. I know you and Ross are upset about..." I cut her off. "I said I'm not hungry OK. Just drop it." I looked down feeling a tear drop to my cheek. "Hey, you OK?" Riker whispered. "Yeah, I guess. I'm still pretty upset though." i whispered back as he nodded. Everyone started to talk but I sat there quietly. My eyes kept falling on Ross. It seemes like the longer I stared, the sadder I go. I tried my best to stay strong but I couldn't anymore. I began to cry and apparently everyone heard. "Aw, don't cry McKenna." I continued to cry. "Excuse me please." I got up and ran back to the hotel. I went bacl into mine and Rydel's room and crashed on the bed. I put my head in my pillow. I needed Ross with me. I was mad before but I'm just sad now. I can't stand him but at the same time I want him. The door then opened. I thought it was Rydel. Nope, it was Ross. Just Great.

Ross's POV:

McKenna wasn't eating. I know she was upset because of me. Her mom started to talk about how she was sad because of m e but she snapped. After, she started to cry. I know felt really horrible. She ran off back to the hotel. "Rydel, give me your key." I demanded. "Um, why?" She barked. "I have to fix this. It's driving me crazy." I begged her. She finally gave me her key and I ran after McKenna. I opened the door to see her crying on her bed. She looked back at me and cried even harder. I walked towards her and sat next to the bed. "I'm so sorry McKenna. You have no idea how bad I feel about this whole thing. I wish I could go back to that night and do it differently. I would have never kissed that girl and never went to that club. I just wish there was something I could say to you to make you see how much I care about you and love you and feel so so sorry. Can you ever forgive me?" I explained. "Well the truth is Ross......
