Expect The Unexpected

Chapter 27

I'm at the front door of Ryan's penthouse.

Why?

Well apparently he talked to my friends ,major right?

Well he did and now they told me I should just listen to him whatever he has to say so I obviously agreed ,my friends made me go listen ,refused to tell me what he said .

Knock

Knock

Knock

The door opens and there he is looking so tired  ,aww has he been okay?

You came? "He asks in disbelief almost.

Uh yeah,can I come in ?" I say he nods opening the door wide for me to walk in ,which I do and proceed to sit by the couch waiting for him to join me on the opposite side. 

Closing the door with a

Click.

He walks over by the other side

Want anything to drink?"he asks ,stalling.

No ,I'm fine thank you"I mumble he nods taking a seat opposite me staring at me ,I am after all sitting directly opposite him,he stares for a while.

What? "I ask suddenly getting annoyed.

I'm sorry, you just look beautiful and I haven't seen you in so long,I apologize" he says looking at the floor.

How matured

Its fine,thank you"I reply

So how have you been?"I ask him glancing around the house avoiding eye contact.

I've been coping ,you ?"he asks.

Fine,I've been just fine "I say

So you talked my friends into me having to come here" I say looking at him watching him play with he's hands.

Yeah,I needed you to listen to the whole story before you hated me of off one piece stuff "he says and I nod

Well I'm listening" I say

Me and my brother never got along "he says ,and I stare at him waiting for him to continue,cause I already know this Lucas had told me.

Its all my dad's fault ,well ours too  growing up he'd always make us fight,argue by either stealing my toy and blaming Lucas so I can argue with him or something .It started with the little things like that until it eventually got worse when we grew up we had to be trained based on who will take over when dad's time to step down would come so he'd send us places to do things and well sort of make us compete against each other ,At one point I tried talking to Lucas about it but he never liked me probably heard lies dad fed him so instead of talking we fought , ever since then he never really liked me neither did I ,for some reason he and dad started being closer obviously that made me jealous even though they were close dad never gave him special treatment when I was around only when I'm not there I don't know why , Anyways I had ended up being the one receiving the lead to Lead the Mafia .My grandfather made that decision ,Lucas got mad and killed him that led to him being hated by me and most of my family including our sisters  ,except Dad. Before I met you my father had threatened to take me down from the position ,put Lucas incharge and I couldn't let that happen well because he's not fit for it he'd completely bring it down to shame ,so my father suggested that I befriend you  make you my girlfriend so you can tell me stuff about your Father's business not knowing that you aren't involved ,so I met you was obviously attracted to you ,it got to a point where I already knew you weren't involved but I just couldn't get enough which led me to falling deeply in love with you ,my father found out that I loved you and used it against me ,cause I gave  up using you when I found out you're not involved I'm so sorry I broke your trust Malia ,I don't expect you to ever forgive me but I love you and I hope you find it in your heart to do so"he finishes looking up at me only to be met with my expressionless face,

I can't show him my emotions.

I'm still processing everything he said.

He fell in love with me but that still doesn't make the hurt subside .

Look I understand better now but that doesn't mean I forgive you for what you did  cause what would have happened if you hadn't fallen in love with me ?,its still fresh in my mind and hurt I can't lie and say I'm not deeply disappointed, I am I'm very much disappointed in your actions Ryan and I want you to know that I will hold that against you cause I do love you ,I can't unlove you based of this I wish I could because you've caused me pain ,broken my trust ,lied to me and had plenty of chances to come clean yet you never did and honestly I think that's what hurts the most ."I tell him still wearing  my poker expression, he looks up at me with glossy eyes.

Don't do that"he says and I look away.

Do what ?"I asks

Don't hide your emotions from me ,I'm so sorry and I'll do everything in my power to be with you, regain your trust again Lia cause I love you and it would kill me to see you with someone else "he says ,kneeling down infront me caressing my face,making my eyes glossy.

I-I can't you lied to me" I mumble as my voice starts to break

I hate when you cry belle" and to think I'm the cause of those tears only cuts deeper ,please stop crying "he says wiping away  my tears ,nodding I stop.

I forgive you Ryan ,but I don't know if I can carry on with this r-" he cuts me off

No "he says and I nod

I can't continue, I need time and space away from you to gather my thoughts. I can't promise you that we'll be back because I don't know what I want yet but when I do know what I want ,I know where to find you " I tell him as another tear cascades down my face ,but he catches it.

Kissing both my cheeks ,he releases a sigh.

Please don't leave me "he says burying he's face at the crook of my neck I start rubbing he's back while running my fingers through he's hair,I feel something wet sliding down my neck.

God is he crying?

He's crying

That honestly just breaks my heart.

Now that I've stopped crying, he does.

So without words I  carry-on rubbing he's back for about I don't know how long we stayed in that position for.

But he eventually pulled away he's head to stare at me with blood red puffy eyes and a flushed face .

I caressed he's face like how he does to me.

I love you " I tell him with a kiss on he's forehead.

If its meant to be it'll be"I kiss both he's cheeks smiling lightly.

He pulls me in for a tight hug which I happily return .
