Road To Forever...

Chapter 17

Ratliff's POV

When we went to IHOP we got swarmed by paparazzi. We pushed through the crowd and ate our breakfast. When we left we got into our cars and drove to the mall. Today we were buying more things for the babies. We all split up and went to get different things. Ross,Calum,Tristan,Ryder & I went to

get the baby things whilst Laura,Raini,Nicole,Roxy & Rydel went for more clothes.

As we looked around the baby stores we bought a lot more clothes.

I even bought a top that said 'my daddy loves sloths!' It was the last one in the store! We walked around for another hour or so before I had to use the bathroom, I handed the bags to the guys and walked away. When I was done I walked out and saw something horrible. Roxy was pushed against the wall by some 30 year old guy. I went over there and got him by his collar, I punched him in the face repeatedly as I heard Roxy's sobs getting louder, I jumped off the guy and muttered "stay away from my niece, unless you wanna meet her father & her other uncles!". He looked scared as he gets up and runs away.

"Thank you so much Uncle Ratliff, I didn't know what to do. I was so scared that he would hurt the babies."-Roxy

She begins to cry even more as she hugs me, she buries her face

Into my neck and I pick her up bridal style. I go to the car and drive her home, I sent the guys a text saying 'hey guys, had to leave and I brung Roxy back with me so can you tell the girls please, thanks, will explain when you get back.'

When we get home we sit on the sofa and she sits next to me, head in my chest. I stroke her hair as she tells me what happened.

"I really needed to use the bathroom and when I came out there was a guy waiting for me, he told me to come with him and he whispered sexual things into my ear, he told me if I screamed he would kill me. Good job he didn't see the baby bump underneath my baggy clothes! I tried to run but he grabbed my hair and pulled me back, he pinned me against the wall and started stroking my legs and kissing my neck, I was so scared! Thank you so much for saving me Uncle Ratliff! I love you so much!"- Roxy

I kiss her forehead and hold we close to me to stop her shaking. I start singing 'Say You'll Stay' to her as its her favourite R5 song, She falls asleep on me and I play with her hair.

When the others walk in they take one glance at us before asking what happened. They were all worried sick! They saw her laying there asleep, eyes puffy. I tell them what happened and all the guys were fuming! The girls were upset as they were with her just before. Ross started getting angry and walked out Of the room. I'm not surprised, I'd be angry too if that happened to my daughter! I carry her sleeping body up to her room and tuck her in before kissing her forehead and leaving her room. When I get downstairs we go into the dining room and sit at the table discussing the Maia plan. We still had a lot of work to do, but we have to do it before its too late. The girls are 6 months pregnant and we have to make sure they are okay, and don't get harmed. We called the rest of the Lynch's and began to discuss the plan again. We needed as much back up as possible, otherwise who knows what could happen?

When Roxy woke up she came down and got some ice cream. I got her the pickles and she smiled, thanking me. Everybody made sure not to bring it up as it is a very sensitive subject for her.

The day goes on and hours go past and soon it is time to go to bed. Everybody was exhausted so it wasn't hard to fall asleep.

I fell into a deep sleep after tweeting some fans. Yes we still have fans!
