Megan's pov:

I keep thinking about rye talking to Blair. I'm so scared of what he's going to tell me.
He said he would call me when he finished to tell me everything but it's been an hour and he hasn't called yet.
I keep pacing around in the kitchen waiting to hear my phone ringing, I'm waiting for that stupid ringtone, that I hate, to ring but it doesn't. I keep staring at my phone but nothing happens and it will be like this for the next hour if I don't stop staring at it.
I took a deep breath and got a glass from the cupboard.
Then I opened the tap and let the cold water run over my fingers to check the temperature but just as I was going to fill the glass my phone rang.
I dropped the glass in the sink and quickly took my phone notcaring about the shattering sound that the glass made.
I quickly answered, without looking at the caller ID.

Megan:" hey, what happen? Is everything good?"

I asked rushing the word out of my lips.

Rye:" hey."

He siad a bit strangely.

Megan:" then?"

I asked pushing him to talk.

Rye:" yes, everything is good. He's OK with it so I asked if I could have the weekend free so we could have a small holiday together. Would like to?"

As he spoke my mind tried to process everything and what he said left me speechless. I didn't know what to say.

Rye:" meg? Are you alright? "

His voice woke me up from my thoughts.

Megan:" yes, yes. I'd love to. when?"

Rye:" next weekend. If you can, if course."

Today is Thursday, so...

Megan:" yes, but would we leave tomorrow or Saturday?"

Rye:" Friday night? Is that OK? "

Megan:" yes, where, though?"

Rye:" I was thinking that we could go back to Bristol. It'd be fun to go back together but I want to book an hotel room."

The fact that a he wanted to go to Bristol surprised me a bit. I mean this is hour first trip together and he wants to hi back to out hometown.
But, actually, I was planning on going to see my family so.

Megan:" yes, why not? We could see our families too."

Rye:" yes. Now I have to go. I'll talk to you later. Bye."

Megan:" bye. I love you."

Rye:" I love you too."

A small smile spred on my lips while he hung up on the phone.
everything's good. I'm so happy.

It's five p.m of Friday night. Rye's should arrive at any minute and I'm way too excited for this small trip that we've planned.
We are staying in Bristol till Sunday evening. He has already booked the hotel and we've spoken about what we could do during this weekend.
I've got everything ready. I packed a few clothes and just the necessary.
Just as I put on my shoes the doorbell rang.
I finished putting on my shoes and opened the door.
I gave rye a big smile and he smiled back.

Megan:" I missed you."

I said wripping my asms around his neck.
He wrapped his rams around my waist and kissed me.

Rye:" me too. Are you ready?"

I nodded.

Rye:"where's your bag?"

Megan:" in my room."

He got my bag and we left my apartment.
We got in the car and started our journey to our hometown.
It's just two hours and half it I hate traveling specially on cars.

Rye:" how's your day been?"

Rye spoke over the music coming from the radio.

Megan:" everything normal. Work, packing. Nothing special. What about you?"

Rye:" today we didn't do a lot, actually. Andy and I arrenged a new cover but that's all."

Megan:" then, we'll have fun tonight."

Rye:" I love that expression. what do you have on mind?"

Megan:" what do you have on mind? "

Rye:" I asked first. "

He smiled proudly.

Megan:" you won."

We both laughed and the journey continued like this. Chatting and having fun.
As we arrived at the hotel we checked in and got to our room.
The room was really cute and romantic. There were chocolates and champagne on the bed.

Megan:" thank you. Baby. I love you."

I kissed him and somehow we ended up in the bed, making out and then.. Let's say that the situation got steamy.
We were lying on the bed. I had my head in his chest and his fingers were tracing imaginary lines over my bare skin, making me shiver.
He kissed my head while I played with his fingers.

Rye:" it's still early do you want to go to dinner?"

Megan:" nah, I'm comfy here in your arms. Let's ger room service."

He laughed.

Rye:" yes, everything for my princess."

Megan:" thank you."

I smiled before leaving a kiss on his chest.
I lifted my head and looked up at him.

Megan:" I love you so much. I wouldn't be who I am now without you. "

I stared in his eyes and a flash of insecurity ran through that intense brown color.

Rye:" why do you love me? All I've done is hurting you. How can you still love me?"

Megan:" I love you because you always make luagh and you are cute, funny, adorable, caring. I love those dimples that appear when you smile. I love you laugh. I love how smsrt you are. I love your curiosity. I love that you don't stop in front of anything.
You are human you make mistakes and it's fine. I make mistakes too.and I think you deserve the world and I'm not sure I can give it to you. But I know that I can give you all my love. No matter what I'll be by your side. "

Rye:" I... don't deserve you but I'm too selfish to let you go. I can't let you go. I made that mistake once and i don't want to lose you again. I love you. "

He smiled softening a bit the tension of the moment.
What he said mede me think bout all the times I saw insecurities in his eyes and he couldn't get a decision.

Megan:" I love you and you don't have any reason to be so insecure. I forgave you about everything and you should do the same to yourself. You deserve it."

I think that he can't forgive himself for leaving me and hurting me but I did and he has to sod the same.
He didn't answer. He just made me lay back on his chest and I indulged his request. He doesn't want to talk and I won't push him.
I listened to his heartbeat that was slowly calming down.
