A/N: OMG 3,000 VIEWS!? IM SCREAMINB RIGHT NOW THANKS TO THE THOUSAND OF PEOPLE WHO BOTHERED TO CLICK ON THE SYORY YAY! I TOOK 7 HOURS TO WRITE THIS BECAUSE I GOT DISTRACTED EVERY HOUR. BUT OH WELL. :D
Trigger Warning: Mentions of self harm and murder...
Disclaimer: I OWN NOTHING.
"Yes I am! I didn't give a ship about you when you tried to tell me! I.. I... " She paused "I don't deserve you. You were being the best person to me and all I did was push you away. I mean, I ran from you the first time you tried to propose to me! I don't know how you kept me for six years! You don't deserve me. You should find someone else." She finishes.
And Ross couldn't get a word because Laura ran out the door. And he stood there stunned.
Ross' POV
I stood there in shock. I couldn't move a bone in my body. It's like my brain shut down every nerve in my body and now I'm standing there looking at now closed door. Laura left me, again. I tell her about my cutting problem and she ran out on me. This is ten times worst than when I told my family and they laughed at me. No. It's like she took a million knifes and stabbed me in the heart.
"You don't deserve me. You should find someone else." Her words rang in my head making the pain worse and worse. Did she just say we should break up? I can't lose her! I can't!
Nobody in the world can ever take her place.
She's the kind I can't replace.
The song slowly crept into my mind as think of her. It was true. I can't live without her, she's my world. I can never replace her. If I can't be with her... Then what am I? Nothing. Just a walking slab of skin, meat and bones.
She's the reason I'm still living today. Without her, I would be six feet underground rotting away in some coffin in a cemetery. Without her, I wouldn't be happy. My world is already crumbling at my feet awaiting me to jump into the cracks and die.
Point is, without Laura...
I would be dead.
Then I hear a knock on the door, I stay there stiff as a pole as the knocking grew louder and louder. Then the door slowly opened to reveal the figure behind the door.
Hayley.
Rydel's POV
It's already noon and I never got out of bed. Ratliff left a while ago to take Rosie to daycare so I was alone. I still couldn't believe it. Ross, the happy-go-kid I've known since the day he was born, was hurting himself. Making little slits on his wrist whenever he felt like he needed it. Letting out the blood he needs to survive. I don't get it. He's my baby brother, I should be the caring older sister he needs. But I can't. The damage is done. It's written in stone. He's broken and we can't help him get back on his feet again.
I thought back to what Ratliff had said. Ross had told us before but we we were too stupid to realize it was real. He wasn't spitting out some lie. He was speaking out his feelings. We laughed our butts off and returned to watch that game. We never took thought of our actions, we just laughed and never noticed the hurt written across his face...
He's probably suffering right now, but he probably has Laura to guide him, she would be helping him be okay. But he needs family. Now don't get me wrong, Laura's family but, she hasn't known him for 26 years.
I got out of bed and decided I'm going to go to his apartment. It's time to fix what I can fix. So I got dress and left a note incase Ratliff came back. After that I headed out the door. I drove the surprisingly quiet streets to his apartment building. I walked to the building and checked in.
After impatiently waiting for the elevator to get to the floor, I now stood in front of his door. I slowly twisted the knob to find it unlocked. I opened to door to find the most horrendous sight I have ever seen.
Hayley was murdering Ross.
Rydel's POV
"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?" I screamed angrily.
"Nothing." She put an innocent look on her caked on face. I twisted my face in disgust.
"Yeah yeah, sure. Why did you kill my little brother?!" I spat.
"He's not dead. He just passed out." She smiled.
"Why would you kill him?!" I screeched.
"He wouldn't marry me. If I can't have him than no one can!" She screamed.
"Who cares if you don't marry him!? If he wants to marry another girl that's fine! It's his f**cking happiness!" I yelled.
She goes to Ross' body and pulls out the knife from his chest. She snaps back to me, point the knife toward me.
"You think you can have a say in what my husband wants?!" She exclaimed.
"He's not your dang husband!" I countered.
Then all of a sudden siren is heard throughout the building. I smirk looking at Hayley.
"What was that?!" She screamed.
"Oh just the police. No big deal. Is there a problem?" I challenged.
"Why yes. There is a problem! " She raised the bloody knife but before she could stab me, the police arrived. The office walked up to Hayley and pulled her hands behind her back.
"Miss Erins, you're under arrest for attempted murder and murder." The officer said as he handcuffed her.
"Thanks so much officer." I said.
"No problem Mrs. Ratliff. The paramedics are coming shortly so make sure he doesn't bleed any further." He said.
He dragged Hayley's screaming and kicking body out the door. I then sighed in relief. Thank god I don't have to see that blonde banshee ever again.
I locked the door and turned around ran towards Ross. My eyes start to water and my heart shattered as I look at his limp and bloody body.
How could this have happened...
15 minutes Earlier
Ross' POV
"Hayley!? Wha- How? Why? WHEN?!" I spat. How the heck did she find my home!?
"My reporter gave me the address. Duh." She deadpanned.
"That doesn't give you the right to find me!" I yelled.
"Whatever. So anyways. Will you marry me Ross?" She widen her eyes to make her look cute. It made her look like a brat.
"No. I'm committed to Laura and I always will be." I stated.
"Oh." She said. I smiled, maybe she'll finally leave.
"I guess she won't be comeback here to find you alive. That's a shame." She said.
My eyes widen in fear. She was gonna kill me!?
"What do you mean "She won't come back to find me alive?" I asked panicked.
She ignored my question and reached into her bag and pulled out a metal object.
A knife.
She played with it for a minute before turning back to me.
"You know... Maybe you need a cut right about there..." She took her manicured finger and pointed it at my heart. Then everything after that was blur. All I remember was watching her slowly cut my arm and chest and hearing the door open and a gasp.
Then I fell to the floor.
And everything went black.
Many hours later at the hospital
No One's POV
Riker, Ratliff, Rydel, Rocky and Ryland patiently waited outside of Ross' surgery room. They were worried that their brother is gone but they kept praying that's he's gonna survive. Oh nevermind this is Ross for crying out loud! He probably has a small chance to survive! Rydel and Ratliff told them the whole story and now they feel awful.
If Ross dies they'll never forgive themselves. The scars would remain until the end of time. Ugh. They couldn't bare the thought of losing Ross.
Ryland would have one less brother to look up to.
Rocky wouldn't have a brother to help him set up pranks.
Rydel wouldn't have girlish little brother to make fun of.
Ratliff wouldn't have a best friend.
And Riker... He would lose the brother he had the most connection with.
They kept wondering how they would cope with Ross' death. But they do know the only good things were he would be in a better place and he would see their parents again.
But even then it hurts to think of him dying. Let alone think of their parents. Riker bit his lip and chewed on it. He had to keep himself from breaking down. He's the oldest, he should be the strongest one. How is he gonna deal with this... There's so many things he needs to tell him... Then he remembered about R5...
How are they gonna continue R5 with their lead singer dead? Hollywood Records would drop them for sure.
Then his eyes widen. Ross never knew about the prank. He believes HR dropped them...
"Guys..." Riker whispered.
They all turned their heads to him as he continued to speak. "Ross is probably gonna die thinking HR dropped us. That's a lie we need to fix... But we probably can't..." He finished.
Then a doctor came out of the room and everyone stared at him with anticipation.
"Family of Ross Lynch?" They all nodded.
"We finished surgery and I'm here to tell you that Ross is..." The doctor started.
A/N: Welp. We don't know if Ross is dead or alive. You guys can vote in the reviews and say if you want him alive or dead. Most votes that's Ross' fate.
And review if you love that Hayley's gone. :)
Byyyyeeee!
