Kennedy just stared at Reba, "I'm not really hungry." She said, her tone slightly less harsh. She could feel Ryan's concerned glance burning through her, but refused to meet his eyes. In this moment, what she wanted was to go home, real home.
Hearing Ryan's sister, she rolled her eyes and sighed, "Today is so dramatic." she mumbled, obviously upset.

Reba shook her head in agreement, "I know right? But I can't lie and say I don't see how they're related." She laughed, glancing around. "What do you plan on getting to eat or was this just an escape from the madhouse in there?" Reba stared at him for a second, placing her hand on his shoulder. "You do know you can talk to me right? I'm your friend too." She gave him a serious look, holding it for a few seconds before laughing. "Seriously though, what's up?"

((Ryan's sister went bye-bye...he doesn't even really have one...I just wanted to be polite and...he isn't rich xD))
Ryan watched as the other two left, letting out a sigh. At least they were going to go find him a taco. That was a true friend right there, in his eyes. Once they were gone, he sat up, his hazel eyes watching Kennedy. Clearly something was on her mind and he was curious as to what. She was fine just a moment ago. "What's up?" he asked her. "And don't say 'nothing' because clearly something is bothering you," he added.

Kennedy just shook her head, "I can't." She muttered, "I don't even know where to begin," pausing she looked up to Ryan, "I am not here to burden you with my troubles,when you're all laid up like this." She offer a small polite smile, "Don't you worry your pretty little head about it."

Kodi gave a weak laughter, glancing over to her briefly with a soft smile. He didn't even decide whether he wanted to eat or not, or if it was really because he just wanted to get away from Kennedy and Ryan.
He quickly looked up after she rested a hand on his shoulder and he looked to her, listening to the seriousness in her tone of voice. He thought she was really trying to help, but quickly she began to laugh. He didn't bother to grin back and just looked away; thinking he wouldn't have been taken seriously if he really told her what was going on. "Nothing, I just have a lot on my mind.' he said flatly, hoping that was enough to keep her from inquiring further which knowing her, probably didn't.

Ryan's eyes narrowed slightly, a look that was almost a glare. Why did she have to try and act all...saint-like and insist that her problems weren't that important? "I don't think it's a burden. Besides, if I can sit here and listen to your problems that means I can forget about mine for awhile," he explained. The more his mind could be distracted from his injury, the better off he was. Just thinking about it all made him feel sick. "You might as well just tell me because my 'pretty' head is going to worry," he added.

Reba paused before taking his hand and pulling him to a nearby seat. Resting her chin in her hands, she looked at him. "Tell me about it. I always wonder what's going on in other people's head." She smiled sheepishly, "Sometimes it's not always good but hey, tell me. I pinky swear not to tell anyone. Cross my heart and hope to die." Her dark hair fell into her face and she blew it away with her breath, returning her gaze to Kodi. "You shut down in there."

Kennedy shook her head, there was no way she'd ever explain all of it to Ryan at this moment exactly, so she picked it apart in her mind and then finally answered. "I'm afraid I made Kodi mad at me." Was all she said, that was the safest answer she could give to Ryan, without having to explain everything she was thinking right now. About how jealous she was, especially right now when Kodi and Reba were off alone together.

((After this I'll have to jet, it's getting late 3: ))
Kodi was taken by surprise after she took his hand; his heart skipping a beat before she let go and he sat himself across from her. He hesitated to mention about his issues, mostly because he wasn't one to talk about personal things with anyone.
"Well." he began, trying to think of a way to say what he thought without sounding like an idiot or a jerk to her. She was such a sweet friend; despite how much he thought she was pure evil just to spite her; and he didn't want to come across as someone who just likes women for sex. He looked away from her before beginning to speak again, too afraid to give any eye contact with her. "I just, have feelings for Kennedy and...well now that she seems to favor Ryan, I'm just jealous that he's getting her attention. I don't know what I did wrong to get her angry. Maybe it's because I-" he paused for a moment before resuming. "I like you too. And I don't want to sound like an ass. But I have feelings for the both of you and I'm just tied in between." he looked to her, eyes pleading as if he was begging for help before burying his head into hands in embarrassment. It was probably best not to have told her but, he just felt that she needed to know. After all, she asked, and she didn't seem to mind whatever it was. He just prayed that it didn't cause any fury in her.

"Hm...I see," Ryan said, nodding his head. She thought Kodi was mad at her? That would certainly be a reason for her to be upset. If it were true. "Are you sure? He didn't look like he was mad to me. Maybe you're just freaking out?" he suggested. Of course, that probably wasn't the most helpful advice for her right now. "I mean, I don't see why he would be mad at you. You haven't done anything wrong," he added. Then again, he had been out of it for the past little while. "I didn't miss something while I was out...did I?" he questioned, his eyebrows furrowing.

"No.." Kennedy thought back to all the previous days events, "He's just been so distant from me this whole trip," She finally admitted, "I don't understand. I really liked him. And he just has, I don't know, put me on the back burner I guess." Being that she was a female,and most females were criers, Kennedy's big eyes welled up with tears, "I don't want him to be mad. I don't want to lose him. Even as a friend." She blurted, her eyes searching the room, as if the walls had the answers. "I don't get what I did wrong."

Ryan held back a sigh as he listened to Kennedy speak. So she really liked Kodi but suddenly he seemed to not like her as much and she was afraid of losing him as a friend? Yeah...there wasn't anything complicated about that. To make it even better, she was on the verge of crying. What was he supposed to do to fix that? "Well...maybe he's just confused or something? Or...being an ass," he suggested, rubbing the back of his neck almost nervously. He wasn't very good at these kinds of conversations. "I don't see how you could have done anything wrong. How could he be mad at you? You're...awesome and pretty and stuff..." he told her, trying to cheer her up again. "Don't cry. I can't get up and come hug you if you start crying," he said, slightly amused.

At that, Kennedy burst into full on tears. Making a complete fool of herself, "I'm sorry." She apologized, "I'm probably just over tired." She spoke through her tears, feeling like such a dork. "I don't even want him to come back in here, I can't face him." She sighed, nervously letting her hair down from her bun and running her fingers through it. She pulled herself together,and stared at Ryan, "Please don't tell him any of this. I'd positively die." her cheeks flushed and she looked at him one more time, trying to read his expression. For all she knew, he could think she was a crazy idiot now.

Aw crap, now she was crying. Ryan really had no idea what to do. It didn't help that he wasn't really able to move or anything. He just kind of let her go and let it all out, his expression filled with concern as Kennedy spilled out her emotions. It almost, kind of, bugged him that she cared that much about Kodi. It bugged him that Kodi seemed to be so insensitive towards the matter. "I won't tell him. Your secret is safe with me. If you want, we can lock the door and he can't come back in...ah, but then I can't get my taco," he said, frowning. His hazel eyes hadn't left hers the entire time and when she finished, he held up the plushie fish. "Would a hug from Chimichanga make you feel better?" he asked.

Kennedy just nodded, taking the stupid fish and clutching it tightly to her torso. "I am so stupid." She mumbled, shaking her head, "I really didn't mean to have a huge cry fest and spill my heart out to you." Removing her gaze from the floor, back to his hazel eyes, she offered him a weak smile. "I don't want to be here when they come back." She admitted, thinking the worst about the situation. In her mind the pair would come back, holding hands and laughing. Riding off into the sunset together. She trembled at the thought of this, "How could I let myself get into this mess?" She asked no one in particular. It calmed her jealousy a little, the fact that Ryan was being so kind and listening.
