Addilyn pov-

Moments later we pull into the driveway and as I look at my childhood home a small smile spreads across my face. I never thought that I would actually make it home.

The only thing I had running through my mind in that basement was making it home to my family and just getting back to life. Ryder was on my main list though, I have always loved him. I just keep thinking what would've happened if my dead body was found in the bottom of a lake or in the middle of the woods. I just have always wondered if I hadn't left and gotten out that day? Would that have been the path that I was left with.

Would that have been the path that I would have had to go with?

I'm just very glad that I never found out, I'm just so glad to be happy and to just be home with my loving family. We all get out of the car and we head inside, none of the other boys' cars have gotten here yet.

The moment I'm halfway to the front door my dad rushes outside and has me in his arms, he holds me so close I'm afraid I may break into a million pieces. He swings me around, I think my dad isn't gonna let me go for a while. But it's not like I have a problem with that, not one bit. If i'm being honest I never want him to let me go. When he sets me down he looks at me and he just gives me a loving smile, there are tears streaming down his face, like in a Niagara falls kinda way. He just pulls me back into another hug.

Truth is I have always been his baby girl, I'm his only daughter. Let me tell ya when he would get tired of those boys, me and him would go out and do something. And I loved it, I really have always been very connected with my family. I think I will always be close with them. I smile as we all walk into the house. All of the sudden I'm tackled to the floor by a dog. He's my do its Bandit, we got him when he was a puppy, we got him for me and Axles 7th birthday this dog is old now. He licks all over my face, I giggle as he wont stop. My mom helps me stand up.

But still as we walk through the house he is right on my trail. He always was right by me and followed me around when we were younger, let's just say that Axel hated it. He was supposed to be a family dog, but he only ever wanted me. Guess it's going to be even worse now that i'm back after almost 7 years.

I was taken just as I turned 10, and I'm almost 16 so it's almost 7 years. I have always wondered what life would have been like if I hadn't been taken. I'm surprised how good I'm doing because of everything I went through.

Ryder gives me a quick kiss and says he will be back in a few just has to leave because his mom needs him for a bit. Me and mom walk into my room, but when I walk in I'm very shocked. They redecorated my whole room. When did they do this? They just had found out I was back, not even 24 hours ago.i turn around and look at my mom for an explanation, to what happened.

" You probably wanna know what is going on? "

I just slightly nod my head and look at her as she pulls me over to my bed, we both sit down and I once again look around the room, but in the end my gaze lands back on mom.

" Okay, so this is a project that all the boys did about a year ago, and we let them because. . . just for some reason they knew you would come back. All they wanted was for you to come back babe. Truth be told we all waited for you because that's what we all wanted, and now that your back we can't believe it. But it makes us very happy that you are. I love you ".

I give her a loving smile, she returns it.

" I was so alone there and I tried so many times to leave and get back to you, I love you so much mom and now that I'm back it feels so unreal. But i love this new feeling. I just wanna get back to my life. Go back to school, spend time with my friends and just so much more. I just. . .am so glad to be back with my family ".

She gives me another loving smile and then she pulls me into another hug. Yeah i'm definitely glad to be back with my family, they have no idea how much I had missed them.

A few hours later I'm now alone in my room. I'm just sitting on my love seat and looking out my window. Bandit lays his hand on my lap, I pet his head and he lets out a whimper. I see him looking at my cast. I wonder if dogs understand what happens when we have things like cats. I think he knows I was hurt though, he hasn't left my side since I came home, and I mean he followed me into the bathroom earlier, when I needed to take a shower. So I made him sit by the door and he was right there when I opened the door.

I hear a slight knock on my door, I look over and see that it's Ryder, I give him a slight smile and he comes in. Bandit gets down by himself and he sits right by me but on the floor. Ryder sits right next to me. We both just stare out the window for a while and I just keep thinking about how much I really do love this boy.

" I love you Addy ".

I turn my head until my gray eyes stare right into his bright blue ones, I sink inside them every single time I look at him.

" I love you to Ryder, so much ".

I crawl into his lap and he just holds me and we both just close our eyes, I really do love him. So much.

As he holds me I feel myself starting to relax and I feel myself starting to feel free and just plain happiness. I soon feel myself drift off and as soon as my eyes close I'm out like a light.

Ryder pov-

As I look down at my beautiful Addilyn I see that she is fast asleep. I smile at this, this is something I have wanted since we were young. I have always wanted her to be mine. It's not clear if we're actually together yet but i'm pretty sure if we're not we will be soon.

As these thoughts fill my head and I pull Addy closer, my eyes slowly close and I feel myself going into a dream-like state. And finally I just let the darkness take me over.

Asher pov ( Addy's 17 year old brother )-

It's about 9 at night now so I walk up to see how Addy is doing. Once I get to her door I'm about to knock on the door frame but when I look inside I see that Ryder and Addy are fast asleep on the window seat in each other's arms. A smile spreads across my face as I stare at the image in front of me. I always knew they would end up together since we were kids and we all played together.

The way that Ryder always stared at Addy just proved that god pretty much made them for each other. I'm glad that Addy loves a boy that we all know and grew up with instead of some douche, that may have just walked into our lives.

We all thought that Addy was dead and she may have been found in a lake or in the middle of the woods, truth be told we were all terrified of that. I'm so glad that we got our baby sister back though.

I know that none of us could live without her sassy, sarcastic, loving and fun attitude. I really don't think we could have.

I look at them one last time, and when I walk I close the door. I tell mom and dad what's going on with them and then make my way to my room.
