It was hard. Me leaving behind my son. My first love. The girls. They really grew on me and I looked at Riot and Brionna as my own daughters and Briar as my little sister too, sense her and Liz are sisters. The look on Tyler's face when I told him that I was leaving for awhile was heartbreaking. His eyes started watering, but he was being the strong little boy he is and held back his tears. I wish I could've taken him with me, but Liz wouldn't allow that and I wouldn't want to make a big scene. I stopped at a red light and my phone buzzed. It was a text from Marissa, a girl I used to hook up with a lot after the Reincarnate album. I sighed and tossed my phone in the glove compartment, or whatever it's called, and drove on after the light turned green. Once I arrived Ricky's house, he was already outside, sitting on his front step, smoking a cigarette.
"You usually smoke inside, what's up?" I say as I slam my car door shut and trying to force a smile on my face.
"It's pretty outside," Ricky shrugs.
"Yeah, I guess..."
"Still no luck with Liz?" Ricky asks, raising his eyebrow.
"I'm here aren't I?"
"True," he shrugs.
I sighed and got out my boxes and suitcases, Ricky helping me, and leads me to the room that I'll be sleeping in. We sat my belongings on the floor.
"Thanks for letting me stay," I say.
"Don't mention it, I'm sure you'd do the same for me. It gets lonely in here anyway and we rarely ever spend time together anymore,"
"That sounds so gay," I laugh out. We both laugh and hug each other.
"I missed you," I admittedly said. I did miss Ricky, we're buddies, and he's right. We ever rarely ever do spend time together anymore.
"Now that was gay," Ricky laughed out as we broke our hug. I laughed and shrugged.
"Wanna go prank some neighbors for old time's sake?" He asked.
"You shouldn't even have to ask," I smirk and we headed outside.

Liz's Pov
"Tattoo artist, Megan Massacre, found unconscious in Scranton, Pennsylvania's cemetery, she was arrested for attempting homicide on Metal singer and song writer Liz Cerulli, she will be sentenced to ten years in jail," The news caster's voice boomed in my bedroom. Seeing Megan's mugshot made me curve a little smile, but then I turned after that. It's been an hour since Chris left and to be honest, it's really weird. I'm used to sitting in bed with him all day, watching tv, or even playing some video games. But, because of his...sex problem, he wasn't here to do that with me, and it's his fault we split up. Although, I did feel a little emotional when we went to Apple Bees...the memories of when he and Ricky were talking about taking me in, Chris finding out about Dean's abuse..he did do a lot for me, but I also did a lot for him. A knock on my door took me away from my thoughts.
"Come in," I sang.
"Hey," Briar said as she closes the door behind her and sits next to me.
"I uh...forgot that school started a few months ago, so I'm going to enroll you Riot and Brionna into school next week," I say as I try avoiding what I know Briar came in to talk about.
"Ugh...when do we go shopping then?" She asks.
"Thursday,"
"Okay....any way, you know what I came in here for," she says, I sighed, crossing my arms and waiting for her to speak.
