Is it love, or just lonely?

Chapter 48

Andy's POV
It felt so real...
I looked at my mom, she looked worried. 'Andy.. Are you okay?' She asked and gave me another hug. I didn't answer. Was I? I felt stuffy and wanted to lay down. I was getting dizzy. Why? Why did I saw him?
'He was real mom, I swear it.' She didn't look really convinced but I was. It had to be real. Who else could have put the glass and a plate on the table? She slowly walked with me towards the Living room and hold my hand. 'Let's first just sit down for a minute.' She said. When I saw the couch I wanted to sleep. I was really tired, I hoped that if I would go to sleep and wake up tomorrow, everything was like it was before. Then I heard my mom scream and saw her looking at the couch. I ran to her and a smile appeared on my mouth. 'I was right, it was real!' I basically yelled. My mom turned her head and raised an eyebrow. 'Really Andy?!' I realized her reaction was quite different than mine. 'Sorry..' I said still happy I wasn't completely driving crazy.
My mom walked to Mikey and sat down on the floor next to him. He was sleeping.
Mom: 'Wait! Andy, have you already called someone? The cops? His mother? And what about Ryan? It's his best friend.'
Andy: 'No, no I didn't. Who should I call?'

Mom: 'Well let's start with the police, then his mother and last ryan.' She hold her breath and looked at me. 'Only if you want to call him of course..'

Andy: 'Yeah mom, it's fine. Mikey's is Ryan best friend of course I will call him.'

My mom nodded and stroke his hair.
'Poor boy..' she whispered to herself while looking at Mikey with eyes that looked like they could break any second.
I sighted and looked for my phone. I felt my pockets but couldn't feel it so I walked to the kitchen. There I saw my iPhone laying on the counter. I grabbed it and stared at it for a while. What had become of my one so "perfect" life. But I also had good things in my life, it just can't be perfect all the time and I had to except that. I unlocked my phone and first called 911. I had never did that before so as soon as I heard a lady on the phone I freaked. It's a cop! What if I say something wrong?
'well hello.' I said with a wayyyy too happy voice. I slapped my forehead. You really aren't that smart now are you? I thought.
I tried my voice to sound more serious but when I said: 'My friend was kidnapped, but now he's back.' I sounded like a depressed potato head, not so great either. I almost laughed at myself for it but laughing really wouldn't make the situation any better.
After I had explained everything to the policewoman she told me a police car and a trauma team was on its way to my house. Then I called Mikey's mother who was so happy she literally dropped her phone and came immediately to my house as well. Now it was time for rye... I searched his name but couldn't find it in my contacts. Of course, I hadn't changed his contact name yet. 'Cutest cutie🥰' he acted like he didn't like the name but when I said I would change it he grabbed my phone and run away with it. Yelling: 'Nooo I want to be cutest cutie.' The memories made me smile. I clicked on his name and called him. The only thing I heard was my phone, my breathing and the ticking clock in the kitchen. I was nervous, I don't know why. It felt like all of my blood came together in my head. 'Hello with Ryan...' my heart skipped a beat. 'I can't pick up the phone right now but you can leave a message bye!' It was his voicemail....really. I called again... and again. Was he already on the plane?

Rye pov:
'Do you know where A5 is?' The dad asked. His children and wife looked at me with their sweet eyes. They all looked very kind.
'Uhmm yeah that's right here.' I answered with a smile.
'I told you dad.' The boy said and rolled his eyes but then laughed at his father.
'Yeah, yeah I'm sorry.' The dad said back and rubbed his son's head who quickly jumped back and stood on his little sisters toe. She started crying and the mother gave her a hug. This familie was so sweet. It was all I ever wanted... the dad looked at me and gave me a tired look. 'I'm sorry for that.' He said.
'Oh sir no, don't ever apologize for things like this. You have a great, kind familie.' I said back. He laughed. 'Thank you.'
'I see we still have some time. Would you mind if we stay here with you?' He asked me.
'Yes, that's fine.'

Man: 'So why are you going to the Netherlands?'

Ryan: 'My bothers are there, and you?'

'We live there.' The little girl said before her father could answer.

'Ahh. Then why were you here?' I asked the little girl but before she could answer my phone went off. I looked, Andy....
Should I pick up? What if he tried to keep me from going? If he would try, he would probably succeed. I already missed him so much... I wanted to pick up. Tell him I miss him so much, asking how he was, what he was doing. The fact that I had no idea of any of that this questions made me feel sick. I had no idea... I could pick up the phone. I closed it and put my sound on silent.
'I'm sorry what did you say?' I asked the girl and gave her a smile. It wasn't a real one, I couldn't stop thinking about Andy.
