Rydel's POV

"Remember when Rei used to cut?" I asked. We were lying down on our bunks in the tour bus, trying to get some sleep. Rei's still with Mama and Dad. We are all so worried, I can't even begin to explain how scared we were for her.

"Of course," Ross replied, "It was the day we were celebrating getting signed to Hollywood Records. It's the day we found out about how she felt." "Why would it matter? We worked it out," Riker asked. "Riker, why were the angriest out of all of us? You know, before she confessed." I asked, ignoring his question. "I was mad. Case closed," he replied, a small trace of annoyance in his voice. "No, there has to be more than that," I said. "No, there's not. You know what? This is stupid. Go to sleep. We got a show tomorrow night," Riker demanded.

I was furious. This was a simple question. "No. Answer the question. Why were you the angriest out of all of us?" I asked once more. "Go. To. Sleep. Now," Riker demanded, anger evident in his voice. "Guys, will you let it go? This was all in the past. We worked it out and we all know this is a subject we never talk about. And we all know why. This is for Rei's sake and talking about it behind her back is even worse," Ryland pleaded.

"Not until he answers the question," I replied, not taking my eyes off Riker. "You guys are being ridiculous. Just shut up and go to sleep!" Rocky yelled. "Fine! You wanna know why I was so angry?" Riker shouted. "Gladly," I hissed. "It's because I couldn't accept her! I couldn't deal with the fact that she could harm herself. I didn't want to believe it. I felt like if I pushed her away it couldn't be true," he said. "How could you not accept your own little sister?!" I exclaimed, "You were being stupid. You should have accepted that fact that she harms herself. You should have worked it out with her. Now I realize what we did in the past could have- or already has- really made her feel neglected. We could have helped her. But instead you choose to push her away." "We all neglected her when we found out. We all pushed her away. So don't you try to blame everything on me. You also pushed her away, Rydel," Riker said. We were now both standing, fighting and yelling at each other, until Ratliff broke us apart.

"Guys, stop!" Ratliff exclaimed, while standing in between us, "We stopped talking about this because Rei asked us not to. Considering her circumstances, I think it's best to respect her wishes." We both shot death glares to each other. Then Riker stormed out of the tour bus. "Riker, wait!" Ross exclaimed. "No. Leave him, Ross. Let him cool down," Rocky said. Ratliff and I both climbed into our bunks. Rei, if you can hear me, please come back. Don't leave us. We need you. We're falling apart without you. We love you, I thought before I drifted off to sleep.

Thank you guys so much for 3k reads! I love you guys so much! I hope you guys know that! I'm sorry that this chapter is, in my opinion, kind of sucky. I'm sorry if someone (particularly Riker and/or Rydel) is kind of OOC. I was having a bit of a writer's block today. And I was also in kind of in a hurry to update today. Please comment! You guys know how much I want to hear your opinions. Remember tell me anything. Regardless of how weird that sounded, pretty please comment.

Merry Turkey Day!!! I love you, #R5Family with all my heart!!! ❤️✌️❤️✌️❤️✌️❤️✌️❤️
