When I finally arrive back at the Lynches house I am rushed by Rocky and Ross into the car.

"What... What is going on? Stormie? Mark?" I ask as I begin to comfort a distraught Rydel.

"Lucy... Riker is in hospital" Mark explains climbing into the drivers seat. My eyes widen.

"What? Why?" I ask shocked at the news.

"Car accident. Don't know what could have cause it. Riker is always really careful" Stormie says as we make our way to the hospital. My heart sinks.

"I caused this" I mumble

"No you didn't Lucy" Ross says putting a hand on my shoulder.

"YES I DID! WHEN WE WERE AT CURT'S HE ACCUSED ME OF CHEATING. HE THREW HIS RING ONTO THE FLOOR AND LEFT!" I start to scream fighting against Rock's hands as he tries to calm me down. Eventually my screams turn into sobs. The rest of the journey is spent in silence. I remove my necklace and exchange the charm for Riker's ring.


"Excuse me. We are here to see Mr Riker Lynch" Mark says when we arrive at the desk. I notice small things about how much Riker meant to everyone. Ross tries so hard not to cry while he holds Ryland. Rocky is with his mom and dad. Rydel is still in the safety of my arms and I am silently praying that everything will be okay. We make our way to the small room where Riker was being treated to. We are told to wait outside until they have finished looking him over. The wait is agonising. I continually rub my sweating hands together.

"The family of Riker Lynch?" The doctor asks as he opens the door. We all stand and make our way to the door. "Only two at a time" he adds. Immediately I step back.

"You guys go in first. He's your brother" I say.

"He's you husband" Ratliff says moving back to my side. Rydel takes my hand and leads me into the room. I choke out a sob when I see him. There were only some minor cuts but he looked more like he was sleeping than had been in an accident. I glance over at Rydel, she motions for me to move closer. Slowly I make my way to his bed. I take his hand in mine.

"I'm so sorry Rike" I whisper. "Please don't leave me"


That was really sad for me... How long will this go on for? Also has anyone listened to Louder yet on YouTube? I can't wait for it to be released in the UK.

Quick note: I may not update as frequently this week cause my laptop is having some work done on it and I won't get it back till the weekend at the earliest!
