Hey guys! :D I'm back with the sequel to Take You There. :) Here's a little recaps of the 'cliffhangers' or the problems I never resolved. :) And if you have no idea what this is, go check out my story 'Take You There' before reading this. :)
"Y-you're not gonna l-like this..." She stutters.
"Whatever it is, it can't be worse than Rocky, Ryland, and Josh fighting outside." I joke. I probably shouldn't have said that, cuz it only makes her feel worse.
"A-Actually, it kinda i-is." She says.
"What is it?" I ask softly.
"I-I have to go home." She says.
"Oh, are you homesick? We can go visit your-" I start.
"No, not like that." She interrupts.
"Then what do you mean?" I didn't like where this was going.
"M-My parents are... making me quit R5, and go back home." She says.
When we get back to the bus, I see a dark figure behind the bus. "Guys, look." I whisper pointing in the direction where I saw the figure. They look that way. The figure was gone. We look at each other thinking the same thing: We do have a secret stalker!
We all run back onto the bus. "Okay, maybe it wasn't a person." Rydel says.
"Yeah," Laura agrees. "Maybe it's a... um... a raccoon! Or a bear!"
"Okay, maybe not a raccoon, or a bear, but we don't know for sure that was a person. Or maybe it wasn't our stalker. It could've been a random person?" Rydel says trying to convince herself.
No one says anything for a minute. "Let's just get some sleep. Maybe things'll be better tomorrow."
"Rocky!" I exclaim before running towards him. I take the thing that was in his hand. It was a piece of broken glass. "No you didn't." I say. He looks at me with sad eyes. I take a deep breath before looking at his wrists. Yup, I was right.
"Ratliff..." He whispers.
"Why?" I ask. "What's wrong?" A tear runs down his face.
"Can I tell you later?" He whispers. I nod. I pull his sleeve down causing littledrops ot blood to stain his sleeve. I pull him up and we walk outside to find everyone else.
"So, wanna tell me what's up?" I ask. Rocky takes a deep breath before telling me everything. Everything from how he felt after he and Anna broke up, to not feeling wanted at the hospital.
"I just, I don't know, don't feel like I'm wanted around here. Like no one cares." He says.
I give him a hug. "That's not true. Things have just been... well busy around here. I promise, we all love you and care for you. Okay?" I tell him. He nods. "Come on, let's head to sleep. We can talk in the morning." He clays down and pulls the covers over him. I smile and get up and walk to my bed.
"Ratliff?" I hear.
"Yeah?"
There a little pause. "I'll try to stop cutting. I promise to at least try." He says. I smile.
"Don't worry, I'll help you."
"Rydel Lynch, I've known you for about six years or so now. And I really love you. Will you marry me?"
Rydel turns around shocked. She smiles.
"Can I say something even crazier? Yes!"
I get up and place the ring on her finger. The crowd screams and tries to get pictures and videos. I kiss Rydel. This was perfect.
Well, that's pretty much it... :) Eh... the last one wasn't really a 'problem' but it will be ;). I'll post the real chapter maybe later today or tomorrow or sometime soon. :)
