His Son

.29

Ryder took us back to the house. Jacob was asleep and everyone was already up in their rooms. We rushed upstairs and saw Jacob in the crib. We stopped quickly as Ryder closed the door softly. We went to an empty guest bedroom and got ready for bed. He was already in bed when I got in. I felt his arm wrap around my waist and him kiss my neck gently.

"What if I told you I want you?" I looked over at him as he ran his finger along my hip. I blushed as I started thinking about that.

"I'm not sure," I swallowed nervously and heard him chuckle quietly.

"Don't be nervous baby, we aren't going to do anything. I was just wondering how you felt," I nodded as he made me turn to him. He gently placed a kiss on my lips. The kiss became more passionate until we heard yelling from the hallway. Ryder jumped up with a gun in his hand and ran out. I followed close behind him to find Luke on the ground.

"Chill Ryder, he just tripped," Alec slurred. You could smell the alcohol on them as Ryder grunted and shook his head.

"Get the hell to bed and don't be to loud, Jacobs aslee-," as Ryder spoke Jacob started crying his eyes out. Ryder grunted again as I set my hand on his shoulder. The two ran to their rooms as I started walking to Ryders room where Jacob was. I saw him standing up in his crib and smiled.

"Hey, JB you're ok shhhh," I lifted him up and bounced him gently. I looked by the door and saw Ryder rubbing his eyes. "Go get some sleep, I got him," I walked over and kissed his cheek as he gave me a small smile. He walked back to the room as he said goodnight. I got Jacob to calm down and back to sleep although it took me thirty minutes. I laid him back down and walked back into the room. Ryder was passed out on the bed so I just tucked him in and saw it was 2 something in the morning. I went downstairs and saw all the liquor bottles. I shook my head and started cleaning up.

I washed all the dishes and got all the empty bottles in the trash. I heard something behind me making me turn quickly.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you," Steve spoke making me smile.

"Oh you're fine," I set the last dish in the cabinet. He sat down and chuckled.

"You cleaned this whole kitchen at three in the morning?" He spoke and I shrugged and turned to him.

"Yeah, I couldn't sleep," he nodded and I walked over and sat next to him. He gasped and grabbed my hand quickly.

"He proposed?!" I looked at my hand and saw the promise ring. I giggled and shook my head.

"No, it's a promise ring," he nodded and let my hand go. He got up and grabbed some juice from the fridge.

"Madelyn, you're a good person. I know you love Ryder, but he's a dangerous guy. Anybody could come after you or even Jacob," he then dashed upstairs leaving me alone with my thoughts. No matter what if we leave someone comes after us or if we stay someone possibly will. I had to kill people to save Jacob and I don't know if I can do that again.

"Hey, why are you up?" May walked in holding her stomach. I smiled as she grabbed a water from the fridge.

"I just got something to drink, I'm going to bed soon," she nodded and smiled. She took her water back upstairs as I relaxed. I fiddled with my fingers as I thought about everything again. I love Ryder, he loves me and we have a son together. I promised to be with him. I looked down at the ring and took it off. I twirled it around in my hand and sighed. I set it down on the table and grabbed my keys. I walked to Ryder and kissed him on the cheek. I walked to Jacob and kissed his head before going downstairs and out the door. I left quietly and automatically made the gate open since no one was outside. I drove to a place where no one knew about because only me and one other person knew of it.

The water was beautiful with the sun coming up. I got out of the car and walked over to the water and stuck my feet in. I sighed and looked around the forest. I remember when I was pregnant with Jacob and I'd come here to relax and get my mind off of everything that was troubling me.

"You're alone?" I jumped and got my feet out of the water. I turned and saw Liam walking towards me. "You're such an idiot!" He yelled and I took a step back from him. "I could kill you right now, but you know how much I want to torture you," he spoke and I looked at him with no emotion. "You came to our first date spot you bitch!" I looked at him shocked.

"Didn't think you would remember all that," he glared at me. The next thing I know, I was on the ground with him on top of me.

"You're boyfriend and friends can't help you now," he grunted holding my arms above me. "Your tits are bigger than I remember," he moved his other hand down to my boobs and squeezed them making me grimace. "Having a kid really did help you," he laughed as I tried to push him off me. He slapped me as shook my head. I looked down and saw the gun on his holster.

"You know I always regretted not giving myself more to you," I whispered as he slightly eased up on my wrists. I kneed him in the nuts and grabbed the gun from his side. I shot his stomach as he fell off of me.

"You bitch!" He yelled gripping his stomach. I shot him again in the leg making him yell. I stepped on his nuts again.

"You will never ever hurt me, my family, or my friends again," I kicked him in the face and saw him spit out blood. I kicked him into the pond as he gagged on water. He reached for me as I watched him try and try again to get out of the water until his eyes shut closed. He sunk and i felt relieved. I walked over to the cars and shot his tires. I broke his windows and made it seem like he got robbed. I got back in my car and drove back home. I pulled in and walked inside seeing everyone concerned.

"Oh my god! Where the hell were you?" Lindsey ran over to me and hugged me tightly. I hugged her back and smiled.

"Just for a drive, now where's my boy?" Ryder walked over and handed me Jacob and kissed my head. They can't know what I've done.
