The Waiting Game 2 - A Ryan Robertson Fanfiction

Breakdowns

We were up, ready and out of the house by 11am. We were currently on our way to the travel agents to book our holiday.

'Baby, can we dance?' Ryan sang in my face whilst we were stuck in traffic.

'No thanks' I smiled.

'I feel so rejected'

'So you should, I just rejected you' I laughed.

We finally arrived at the travel agents.

After we finally found a parking space nearby we got out of the car and made our way in.

We were seated at a desk and waited for a woman to to come and see to us.

'Hello, how can I help you today then?' She smiled politely.

'We're looking to go to Florida' Ryan replied.

'Alright, do you have any dates planned?'

'Any time in July' I smiled.

She looked through for different places to stay and finally a holiday for the 1st of July until the 14th. We booked it and went through all the normal procedures.

We finally came out of the travel agents and decided to go for some dinner at a small restaurant in the middle of town.

After ordering our food I decided to ring my mum to check coming down from Friday to Sunday was alright.

'Hello?' I almost asked.

'Hello Georgia, your mums in the bath at the minute' Lee, her partner, said.

'Alright, well I was just wondering if it was alright if we came down to visit in Friday until Sunday?'

'That's fine, it'll be nice seeing you, Ryan and Dylan for the weekend, we could book a little trip to Alton towers or the safari park near us or something like that' He laughed.

'That sounds great' I smiled.

We carried on talking for a while before our food came and the conversation was cut short.

We all ate our meals and as we began to finish Dylan started to mess with his food and get quite bored.

'Dylan, sit still please' I said as I moved his plate further forward.

He took no notice and began to mumble several different words even louder.

'Stop it Dylan, people are trying to eat' I repeated.

'No' he shouted before carrying on.

'Right come on then, outside and in the car, we're going straight home and you're going to bed' I threatened as I began to stand up.

'No mummy, please' he cried.

'Are you going to stop them noises?' I asked.

'No' he huffed as he then began again.

'Ryan, take him to the car please while I pay' I said as I stood up and headed to the counter.

I paid and made my way to the car where Ryan and Dylan were meant to be but weren't. I scanned the car park to see them playing in the park.

I walked over to the park - unimpressed - and shouted over to Ryan giving him a glare. He walked over to me with Dylan clinging on to him.

'I said the car, not the park. He's supposed to be punished for being naughty, not rewarded' I said trying not to shout.

'It calmed him down, it did no harm' he said walking off towards the car.

'No harm? How will he ever learn if you're just going to constantly reward him when he's done wrong?' I shouted.

'You're going off it for no good reason. He's only a child, he's doing what every child does, calm yourself down man' he shouted back as he put Dylan in the car and got in the passenger side.

'No good reason? I wanted to make him understand he can't do what he wants when he wants Ryan. He'll never learn if every time I tell him off you reward him, will he?' I said as I began the drive home.

'Shut up man' he mumbled.

I continued driving until we finally reached our house.

Ryan got Dylan out the car as I headed straight into the house. I made my way to the bathroom and locked the door behind me. I began to run a bath as it always help relieve stress when I was younger.

I sat on the bathroom floor as I took deep breaths, trying to calm myself down.

I love Ryan and Dylan but sometimes it's hard. I'll say one thing and Ryan will go against it and it feels like I'm constantly battling with two kids.

Everything was running through my head and the tears were uncontrollably running down my face without me even knowing.

I heard a faint knock on the door and Ryan's voice began to pierce through the door.

👑Ryan's P.O.V👑

After rowing with Georgia over something so small I sat silently in the car back.

Although she wouldn't show it I could tell she was upset and I just wanted to apologise and hug her but I know she wouldn't want that right now.

We pulled up outside the house and she got straight out the car and walked straight into the house.

I got Dylan out of the car as he was fast asleep. I locked the car with the spare set of keys I had and headed into the house and made my way into Dylan's room where I lay him down on his bed.

I heard the bath running and saw the bathroom door was locked and at the point I began to panic. The teenage memories began to flood back as I remembered how bad Georgia was with anxiety, depression and battled with an eating disorder.

Although the Georgia has matured a lot and has more responsibilities now it still played at the back of my mind as her therapist said something so small can trigger her to relapse.

'Georgia? Open the door please?' I asked.

'Not now Ryan, just let me have some space' She asked.

'Please Georgia' I sighed.

'I'm going in the bath, I'll talk after that' she said as I heard the water stop.

'Ok, I love you' I said as I walked away from the door and lay on my bed.

👑Georgia's P.O.V👑

'Ok, I love you' he said and at that point I knew I had to keep myself strong and take myself away from all temptation of relapsing.

I opened the door and walked into the bedroom, fully clothed.

'I'm so sorry' I sighed as I dragged my back down the wall and sat on the floor.

'What's wrong?' He asked as he came and sat down next to me, taking me into his arms.

'It was there Ryan, a blade was there, infront of me and I considered it, I considered dragging it across my clean wrists and risking everything' I cried.

'But you didn't, you came away and that just highlights your strength and will power to beat mental health and I'm unbelievably proud of you' he said wiping the tears from my eyes.

'I love you, so much' I said.

'I love you, so much, too beautiful' he said as our lips engaged.
