Recap:

"You're forgetting something, Ry" she tells me smiling.

"And what's that?" I ask.

"That I kissed you back" she says looking at me straight in the eyes.

It's true though. She did kiss me back. But that doesn't necessarily mean that she feels for me.

Or

Does she?!

End of recap

RYAN'S POV

I was at a loss of words. What did she mean by that? Does she feel the same way as I do? I need to know...

"What I mean to say is that it's alright, Ry. You got carried away and it happened. But I did too. So don't blame yourself" she tells me.

Oh. That's what she meant.

"Yeah absolutely. So we're good, right?"I ask her.

"Yup" she says popping the 'p'.

"I'm heading out. You wanna come?" I ask.

"Yeah sure. Go ahead. I'll be out in a minute." She tells me.

"Okay" I say and walk out the door.

And here I was... thinking she might have feelings for me.

SABRINA'S POV

As soon as Ryan got out of the door, I burst into tears.

He regrets the kiss.

Why is it so hard for me to believe that he doesn't like me? He never did!

But forgetting him is impossible when I still see it all in my head.

Ry, come back here and tell me that I've got it wrong somehow. That's it's not all in my mind. That you do really like me.

And I'm dying to know...

Is it killing you like it's killing me, Ry?

My thoughts are interrupted when Keiran walks right in and sees me sitting on the floor crying.

"What the hell, 'brina?! What's wrong?" she asks.

"Nothing, Keiran. I'm okay" I tell her.

"C'mon babe, I'm not blind!" She tells me.

"Something happened" my voice starts to break and she hugs me closer.

"Does it have something to do with Ryan, 'brina?" She asks me.

"Yeah it does" I say to her.

"Tell me all about it" she says.

"We kissed last night. And just before heading out...a while back...he told me that he regrets kissing me without my consent. But I never stopped him Keiran. I kissed him back. And I loved it. Why would he ever say something like that?" I tell her.

"The guy you like is an idiot, 'brina" she tells me.

"What do you mean?" I ask her.

"He likes you but just doesn't know how to talk to you!" She tells me.

"Are you trying to rub salt in my wound, Keiran?" I ask her.

"You're an idiot too, 'brina!" She tells me.

"Now why would you say that?" I ask her.

"Cuz you fail to notice how crazy he is about you! The way he always protects you, looks at you like you're the most precious fucking person in the world...that says something, doesn't it, 'brina?" She tells me.
