Chapter Thirteen
Ryan placed one hand on each of Gillian's arms "Your calling off the wedding? Why in the hell would you do that?"
Gillian threw back her head and laughed "Oh Ryan I think you know" she said as she stepped back forcing Ryan to release his grip.
Ryan shook his head "No I don't and I think you better explain right now"
Gillian's eyes filled with anger "I heard you tell Grandmama everything. I know you don't want to marry me and frankly I don't want to marry you right now either"
Ryan's eyes grew wide "Wait a second Gillian you didn't hear that whole conversation..." Ryan started but Gillian interrupted "I heard enough."
"No you didn't" Ryan began "I think you should hear me out before you go calling off our wedding"
Dimitri heard this and walked over "Calling off the wedding?"
Gillian looked at her cousin "Yes, the wedding is off. Dimitri please take me home, I can't stand it here anymore" she said eyeying Ryan
"Well Gillian" Dimitri began but he honestly didn't know what to say "I don't understand what's going on here, but if you want to leave I guess, let's go"
Ryan ran his hand threw his hair and shoved a chair that was next to him into the table. He tried to plea once more to Gillian to get her to let him explain "Gillian, can we please go somewhere and talk about this?"
Gillian looked right at Ryan and her eyes were filled with more anger then ever before "I will never go anywhere with you again. Do you hear me? NEVER. I'm through with you Ryan. I'm sick of the games you play, go find someone else's heart to play with"
Ryan clentched his teeth "Damn it Gillian you don't know what you heard. Just let me explain"
But Gillian refused to talk to him. She grabbed Dimitri's hand and lead him walking swiftly toward the exit. Dimitri looked over his shoulder giving Ryan a sympathetic glance and with that the two left the Valley Inn.
Ryan picked up a glass on a table and smashed it on the ground "Damn it" he yelled and turned to look at everyone staring at him. He didn't realize until now that they had heard Gillian and him aruging and were now watching him "Shows over" Ryan yelled throwing up his hands and with that he stormed out of the room.

(Later that eveing)
Gillian was sitting on her bed already changed into her pajamas with a gallon of ice cream crying. She started to remember some of her and Ryan's relationship and then stuffed her mouth with more ice cream. She realized the carton was empty and threw it on the floor and layed back on her pillow. Just then she heard a scratching noise outside her window. Gillian sat upright and looked towards the window "It was just the wind or something" she told herself but then she heard it again "I'm just letting my imagaination get the best of me" she told her self. But this time she saw her window being opened. Before she could scream she noticed it was Ryan.
"What in the hell are you doing?" She said running over to Ryan who was climbing into her room. "I almost had a heartattack"
"I figure if you won't talk to me, I'd have to break in because you need to let me explain some things."
Gillian nodded and sat down on her bed "Whatever"
Ryan sat down on the edge of her bed and started to explain his conversation with Eugenia.
*****************
"You mean you just had pre-wedding jitters? That's all? You really do love me and want to marry me?"
Ryan nodded "Yes! I love you Gillian and I want to marry you more then anything! That's what I wanted to explain to you at the Valley Inn"
Gillian smiled "I feel stupid now. I guess I shouldn't have been evesdropping on you or at least let you explain. I should have known. I'm sorry for being so stubborn and saying all that mean stuff to you"
"Do you forgive me then?" Ryan asked hoping she would
"Of course" Gillian said crawling on her bed and towards Ryan and with one quick swift motion Ryan picked her up and kissed her.
When the broke apart Gillian asked "I hope you can forgive me for being an idiot"
"I forgive you. Now can we get married again?"
Gillian laughed "YES." They kissed again quickly "Now you should go and get a good nights sleep for the big day. I won't see you now till I walk down the asile"
Ryan kissed Gillian passionately "I can't wait" and with that he left her room the same way he came in.
**************************
(later that night)
They both lay awake in bed. Neither one had been able to fall asleep yet.
"Good night Gillian" Ryan said as he stared at the ceiling
Gillian smiled as she could almost hear Ryan saying goodnight to her but she turned onto her side and curled up to try and get some sleep. They both had a big day ahead of them.
