In a few hours. They were all watching a movie hen Seb fell asleep, Ryder decided to take him too bed, it was a school day tomorrow he needed all the energy he could get. She put him into bed and he opened his eyes but he was still extremely sleepy.
"I want to say goodbye to Randy" He yawned.
"I know, I'll get him to come and say goodbye. He wouldn't leave without saying goodbye anyway." She smiled as she rubbed Seb's cheek.
Randy got up from the couch and went to say goodbye to Seb he heard them talking and waited outside his bedroom until they were done.
"I really like Randy." Seb turned to face Ryder. "I don't like when he leaves us."
"I know I don't like it either, but he's always going to come back."
"Ryder, you should marry him then maybe he wouldn't leave." Seb grinned.
Ryder laughed, she heard Randy outside the room chuckle as well. He came into the room and sat on Seb's bed.
"You need to go to sleep now buddy." Randy leant over and gave Seb a hug.
"Aww but I hate when you go." Seb pouted.
"I know but like Ryder said I'll be back before you know it." Randy smiled making Seb smile.
"Well don't be too long, we miss you." Seb yawned and closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
"I won't, I promise." Randy and Ryder got up and left Seb's room. They walked out to the lounge room and Randy took his bags to the front door. He looked up and it looked like Ryder was about to cry.
"You better not be too long, you promised now." She smiled Randy came over and gave her a massive hug.
"Just remember what I told you, if I could I'd give up everything to come home to you guys every day. Even marry you; Seb seemed to think that would help." They both laughed.
"Yeah, I guess he just sees you sort of like a father figure since he never had one." Ryder looked down and sighed.
"Well he can call me whatever he wants; I'll be here for you guys every day." Randy lifted Ryder's head up and smiled at her making her smile. Randy pulled her back into a hug, he never wanted to let go and Ryder felt the same. Randy pulled back slightly enough to se Ryder's face, she had a few tears running down her face.
Randy wiped them away and smiled, she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. He just never wanted to leave her. He wanted to take care of her and Seb forever, and he planned on doing that.
Ryder looked up at Randy and their blue eyes met, she smiled. All Randy wanted to do was make that smile permanent and kiss her heavenly lips. He leant down to her face and she closed her eyes, she wanted it just as badly as Randy did. He was inches away from her lips with his, he closed his eyes then they were pulled away from each other by the sound of someone's horn outside his house.
They both looked away; Randy opened the front door and looked back to Ryder.
"I'll see you next time okay?" he stretched his arm out inviting her for one last hug. She ran over too him and squeezed him tight.
"I'll miss you."
"I'll miss you too, don't forget about me." Randy joked.
"Never." Ryder smiled and Randy went and got into John's car.
It had been a few more weeks; Randy was sitting in his locker room un-taping his wrists from his match earlier on in the evening, John was in the bathroom getting freshened up. Kelly burst into Randy's room and went and sat next to him.
"So your spending the night with me then?" she winked at him.
Randy didn't even bother to look up at her. "No, I'm done with that; and you."
"You can't say that Randy we had a deal." Kelly got angry.
"Well its off now, get out of my change room before I kick you out." He growled.
Kelly stood up and slapped Randy right across the face. She crossed her arms and left in a huff. John came out of the bathroom and looked at Randy's face.
"Are you high? You turned Kelly down."
"I promised I wouldn't do that anymore." Randy went back to his wrists.
"Ryder?" John sat across from Randy.
"Ryder." Randy sighed. "She's got me and I want to be with her but I don't trust myself not to hurt her."
"She trusts you though, right?"
"Yeah but that's not the point, I don't want to fuck up what I have here." He looked up and John. "I was putting her brother to bed the other night and he called me dad. I didn't tell Ryder, she would have just been embarrassed." He paused. "But it made me feel like I was part of her family, like I was doing something right for once."
"Then obviously you are doing something rights then aren't you?" John smiled.
"I think I love her John." Randy smiled just thinking about her.
"Well tell her, we get time off in two weeks just go home and you can tell her then, I'm sure she feels the same way as you."
"I hope your right." Randy unlocked his phone and looked at the picture of Ryder, Seb and himself.
After that night things became extremely different, Ryder wouldn't answer his calls, he called his house, he cell and nothing, and he tried emailing her, texting her but nothing she wouldn't talk to him. He became worried and tried to think positively but he was still worried, he couldn't wait to go home.
Randy went to Seb's school when he flew home, he couldn't wait to see Seb again. He walked through the halls and went to the office.
"Excuse me, would you be able to tell me what class Sebastian Paton is in?" Randy smiled at the lady behind the desk.
She went through her computer.
"There isn't any recent record of Sebastian going to school; he hasn't shown up for weeks." She went back to her work.
"Thanks anyway." Randy walked out, something wasn't right here, weeks? He hadn't been in weeks? He got into his car and drove to the hospital, hopefully Ryder was there, and maybe she was just swamped with work.
He went up to the nurses' desk. "Hi, do you know if Doctor Paton is in today."
The nurse looked up at him. "Honey, Dr. Paton doesn't work here anymore."
This wasn't right, it didn't add up she wouldn't just leave without telling anyone. Would she?
He raced back home and went inside there was no one there, all their things had been moved out, it's like they were never there. Randy went and looked in Ryder's and Seb's room, everything was a mess but there stuff was gone, a few pieces of clothing were left. Randy went over to Seb's bed and found his teddy bear, he couldn't sleep without it. He couldn't figure out what was going on. Why would they leave?
He walked down the hall, something caught his eye. He slowly opened the bathroom door, all around the basin of the sink was blood stained, and it was all over the floor. Randy couldn't believe his eyes. What had she done?
