RYAN'S INTENTIONS 4

   Oh no.  Why did I say that?  Why?  Now the best thing that has happened 
to me in so long is not going to fall through.  You are such an idiot 
Justin, such a stupid idiot!  He is probably the most beautiful man in the 
world and you turned him down after he made the move, which is what you 
wanted anyway! Geez, you should probably just add this to the list of all 
the stupid things you've done, like -

"Justin, look.  I don't know why you don't want to do it,-" Ryan began 
bitterly.

"Because I don't know you! Sex is a big deal to me! I can't just do it on a 
whim, I just can't. I've never had sex with a guy before, and I guess you 
have since you managed to turn me on so much just then, but I just can't. I 
don't want just a fling!" I pleaded, hoping he would understand what I 
meant.

"And I don't want a serious relationship." he yelled.

"What?" I asked, wondering if he really meant that or just said it.

"I thought you wanted me to kiss you! When you were out cold and I revived 
you, you actually kissed me back! And before you went to sleep you held out 
your hand!" Ryan stated.

"That's not the point Ryan!" I argued back weakly.

"Then what is the point? What is it with you Justin? I mean, what is it 
about you? You can't play a song on the piano without crying, you're in some 
sort of trouble with your dad and you're afraid of sex!"

"How dare you!" I lost it. "You have no fuckin' idea what I have been 
through in the last six months, NO IDEA! You're just here, on this cruise, 
looking for a little sex, a little fling! Yeah, well I'm on this cruise to 
make a new start of things, and they've gone fuckin' terribly so far!" A 
small tear rolled down my face, and this seemed to only fuel Ryan's anger.

"What a noble purpose you have, but that doesn't explain anything!" Ryan 
yelled, pacing around the room.

"I don't have to tell you anything anyway, who do you think you are? Oh 
that's right, you're Ryan Phillipe, celebrity extraordinaire! You can do 
what ever you want to whoever you want and not worry about anything!"

"I don't know what the fuck is up with you man, but I'm gonna go." Ryan 
stated.

"I'm not stopping you." I said, sitting up on the bed.

"Look, what is up with you? What has happened in the last six months?" Ryan 
asked, concern overtaking the anger in his voice.

"You think I'm gonna tell you, then cuddle up with you, just so you can fuck 
me? I don't think so Ryan! GO!"

"Fuck you Justin. I'll walk myself out."

"Fine then!" I yelled, as he slammed the door.  I realised how pathetic that 
comeback line was.

   What the hell happened just then?  Did I just ruin every chance I had of 
being in love with Ryan?  Did I even lose a chance for friendship?  I still 
can't believe he kissed me.  And why did he just want a fling?  I mean, that 
would be adulterous!  Is he some sort of sexaholic?  I could never be that 
someone who was the one that eventually caused the break up of two people in 
love.  Never.  But what if they - Ryan and Reese - weren't in love?  Is that 
why he kissed me? Why he just ran out?  Why he's looking for just an affair? 
Is he having troubles, and does he think a fling is going to take them away?
   Maybe it's me?  Is there something that I have stupidly done without 
realising it?  Something I might have said?  Should I have told him what 
happened?  Would have he stayed?  Would he have understood, and comforted 
me?  Why am I so afraid of telling people?  Why can't I open up to people?  
A bitter memory of my past girlfriend surfaced.  `That's why', I thought to 
myself.
   Krystle had been my girlfriend, on and off, for almost seven years. Seven 
wonderful years.  From when I was fifteen, up until six months ago.  It was 
then that I had realised that I was gay.  About a fortnight after my 22nd 
birthday.  I eventually gathered up the courage to tell Krystle and when I 
went to tell her, she left me.  Just left me.  And betrayed me!  
Unfortunately, I remember that night too well.  She had just finished 
filming a report about something or other.  Krystle was a news reporter in a 
small town in Western Australia, and we had a pizza in my apartment.

"What do you mean you're gay? You just woke up this morning and decided to 
become a homosexual?"

"Look, it didn't happen like that, I've kinda realised for some time and -"

"You've known for some time? And didn't tell me before?" she interrupted.

"Look, Krystle, please listen to me." I pleaded.

"No, look I've got to go."

"No Krystle, please wait." I said, grabbing her arm, before continuing.

"I still love you, you should know that, and I will always love you, you 
have been such an important part of my life, but I just can't love you like 
you love me."

"Oh my God, you've met someone, haven't you?" accused Krystle.

"No, no I haven't, Krys, you know better than that."

"I'm going."

"Krystle please!"

"Look, have a good time in the USA, but when you come back, don't expect to 
find me waiting for you like before!"

I didn't know what to say, so I watched her leave, as I sighed to myself.  
`Goodbye Krystle'.

   I tried to erase that memory as best I could, reflecting upon it 
wondering if there was anything different I would have done.  She didn't 
really take my `coming out' too well.  I remember trying to reach her the 
next day, only to find out she was another guy.  I went to her apartment, 
and found a note slightly slid under the door.  I retrieved it and read it, 
finding out that she had been going out with a `friend' of mine, Adrian.  
The note read: `How many weeks have I been alive?  Since I met you, then it 
has been five.  Please Krystle, come over tonight, where we can celebrate.'  
I was disgusted with the poem.
   I placed the note back in the envelope, and ran down the stairs, and 
drove dangerously fast to my apartment before I just lost it, punching the 
boxing bag.  I remember being so angry at her for having the nerve to blame 
me for our break-up while she was having an affair with my so called best 
friend.  The next day was the day I left for America with my mother, who had 
recently divorced my dad.  I never told Adrian or Krystle I knew about them. 
  `As if anyone would care anyway', I thought to myself. Then another voice 
spoke in my head.  `Ryan does'.  Does he?  Does he care about me?
   I couldn't get to sleep like this!  I took off my bathers, and I walked 
into the shower, turned on the hot water and stood there briefly, washing 
off the slight stench of chlorine that hung over my body.  After I finished, 
I went into the lounge and looked in the TV cabinet.  There were quite a few 
videos, but I didn't care what I watched.  I picked out the top one and put 
is in, before realising it was `54'.  One of Ryan's movies.  `I just had to 
pick that up, didn't I?', I thought to myself unamused.
   I skipped the previews.  I stopped just before the beginning of the film. 
  I was so angry at Ryan and myself, I knew I wouldn't enjoy the film.  
Instead, I went to bed, trying to think of a solution to this crisis.  
`Should I apologise to Ryan?', I wondered before deciding I should.  But 
what am I apologising for?  For stopping him from cheating on his 
girlfriend?  For everything that has happened, out of my control, for the 
last six months?  No.  I won't apologise.  I don't even know where he is, so 
I'll just wait.  Or should I?

To be continued...

I hope that everyone liked this part!  I'm really happy about the mail that 
I have got because it does a lot to boost enthusiasm!  I'm sorry there isn't 
any sex, but I said from the start that this is going to be kinda realistic, 
but I promise you that the sex will come.  Here is a question for everyone: 
Does anyone think I should also write the story from Ryan's perspective?  
Anyway, this will be the last part for a while, so I hope that you're lookin 
forward to the next one, and I will try to make them longer!!
