Andy's pov

I woke up to a miss call from Rye. I didn't think too much of it so I just dialled his number and rang him back but he didn't answer, I just thought he might still be asleep so I left it and went downstairs to see mum for breakfast. It is a Monday but I don't have school because of my 'illness'. So I just sit at the table and mum gives me toast. I slowly eat it until it's gone.

"Great job Andy, your doing so well," Mum said and hugged me. "Yeah, hey mum Rye called me last night and I must have been asleep cause I missed it, and I rang him back this morning but he didn't answer, should I be worried?" I asked and she shook her head, "No Andy, he's probably asleep still" She replied. I nodded and walked upstairs and lay on my bed.

I was thinking that something might have happened to him but I knew I was overreacting. I decided to give it a few hours then ring him again. I just got ready for the day by brushing my teeth and hair, having a shower and changing my clothes. After 2 hours of just laying around and watching random YouTube videos, I decided to call again. I rang and rang but he didn't pick up again. Now I got worried. I ran downstairs to mum and told her that I was worried. "Andrew he probably on a run or in the shower or something, don't stress yourself out like this. It's not healthy" She reassured me.

I was still worried but she is probably right. I was overreacting. I decided I wanted to go on a run, but I knew mum would never let me in the next million years. But I wanted to ask her, I walked downstairs and saw her watching tv and drinking tea. "Hey, mum," I said and walked into the living room. "Mmm," She hummed as took a sip of her tea. "Can I like...go on a run?" I asked and just then mum spat out her tea all over the place and started to cough. "No Andrew, absolutely not," She said standing up.

"But why" I groaned and walked to her. "Because I said no, your still way too skinny and so no," She said and walked out of the room. "Damn it!" I yelled and ran up to my bedroom slamming my door. Now I have nothing to do and nobody to talk to. I just let some tears out of my eyes and lay on my bed. I felt so alone like nobody wanted me, I was being used and then left when I need people the most.

I felt like, people don't listen to me, so I won't listen to them. I got on some joggers and a t-shirt and also grabbed my inhaler and put it in my pocket as I am heavily asthmatic and walked downstairs and towards the door. "No Andrew" Mum said behind me. "It's Andy," I said and walked out slamming the door behind me.

I started to run, I ran past the park, past the mall and the fountain in the middle of the street. I ran into the woods and around there for a bit. I finally got tired and had to slow down. I had a puff on my inhaler and started to walk back to my house. It took about 45 minutes to walk back but when I did, mum was in the kitchen looking very mad at me. "Why did you do it, 'Andy," she asked.

"Because I have nobody to talk to and I'm bored," I said and walked upstairs. I tried to call Ryan again but he still didn't answer, now I was fucking worried. "Mum!" I yelled and I heard her come up the stairs and into my room. "He still won't answer," I said on the verge of tears. "Look, if I take you to Jo's house then maybe we can sort it out okay" She stated, I nodded and we walked downstairs and out of the house and to the next one.

Mum rang the doorbell and soon a worried Robbie answered the door. "Have you heard from Rye?" He asked franticly. "No" I replied with a worried voice and he started pacing. "He won't pick up," Robbie said on the verge of tears. "Shit," I said under my breath and started thinking of all the bad things that could have happened to him.

"Well does anybody here know where he is?" Mum asked. I nodded. "Yeah, the family Cabin why?" Robbie said and I got an idea. "We need to go to the Cabin," I said and ran out to the car. "Andy, where are you going," mum said and looked at me confused. "We need to go see if he's okay, what if something is wrong," I said. "Okay then," Mum said. I got in the back and Robbie sat in the front with my mum driving.

I must have spaced out because I heard mum say something. "What?" I asked looking over at her. "We are here," She said. I nodded and jumped out and looked at the Cabin. It was beautiful but I then saw Rye's car. The door was open, and so was the front door to the Cabin. Ryan!" I yelled and ran in. I stood in the doorway, my eyes wide at what I saw.

I let out a blood-curdling scream as I saw the whole floor covered in blood. Mum and Robbie came in. "Oh my god!" Robbie said. "I'm calling the police," Mum said and walked out calling the police, I started freaking out, hyperventilating. "Andy come on, come outside," Robbie said taking me outside. I felt like I couldn't breathe. I couldn't stop the tears from my eyes as Robbie tried to calm me.

Soon the police came and started to search the house, my mum was trying to calm me as I was now hysterical, thinking about what happened to him. "Mum what if he's dead in that house, I didn't pick up his calls because I was asleep and what if.....what if he needed my help, I could have talked him out of it" I cried into her chest. She pulled me in closer and rubbed my back. "Andy, he's not dead, don't think like that," She said to me. I nodded and just stayed hugging her.

Soon a policeman came out of the house. "Mam, we found this"...
