I'm pregnant with my best friend's baby

Chapter 3: Ratliff

Ratliff's POV:
I can't believe Delly left. She was my best friend. Ever since we started the band I've had a huge crush on her but I've never had the courage to say anything. Now she's gone. "You okay Ratliff? You look pale." Riker asks and I look at him and realize everybody is watching me "Y-yeah. I'm fine. I have to go." I say and walk out of the room and drive over to my house "What's wrong sweetie?" Mom asks as she looks up from making her famous Apple pie that she knows I love "Rydel left." I say sadly and she stops putting the crust in the pan and comes over to me "What are you talking about? She was over here with you a couple days ago." She says and I nod "I know. Riker went upstairs to wake Rydel up this morning and a couple minutes later he yelled for everyone to come upstairs and he was crying as he looked at a note. Stormie took it and started reading it, Rydel had written about how much she will miss us and how she wants us to continue playing R5 shows even though she's not here." I say all in one breath then take a deep breath "She ran away? As in not coming back?" She says with a shocked expression and she shakes her head "That doesn't sound like her." She mutters as dad walks into the kitchen wearing his old college sweatshirt and a pair of sweatpants "What doesn't sound like who?" He says and he hugs mom from behind and kisses her cheek "Rydel ran away. She left a letter saying how much she'll miss everybody and that the boys should still play R5 shows even though she left." She explains to him and he frowns then looks at me "Why do you think she left? Did you guys fight? Did she say why she was leaving in the letter?" He asks and I shake my head "I have no clue why she left. We never fight either. It was only a couple days ago that we were watching a movie and laying on my bed together and she seemed fine." I say and they shake their heads "That's sad."
