Fck love. It was messy. It was unpredictable. It broke you in ways nothing else could. But god fcking damn it, he loved Annie Williams.

He fell so much harder than he’d expected

@Littlefeets

@benitz786

tuck in the same spot, engine rumbling beneath him as he debated whether to go to her house.

You should go Ricky

HOW? Like come to her after he hurt her and say what? Sorry your mom died?

@Littlefeets

Sophie tried to send that second text before he could worry…

He still is worried

@Littlefeets

He could’ve gone to see Annie.
Sophie would’ve understood. She said she’d be fine walking. She’ll be okay…

She’s not okay

And rick’s not going to leave a friend high and dry

@Littlefeets

@benitz786

She looked up at him, her eyes red and puffy, tears still clinging to her cheeks.

He got there far too soon for her to even pretend she hadn’t been crying. She’s still crying practically.

@Littlefeets

@benitz786

He could see it—the way she flinched when he moved toward her, the way she wouldn’t meet his eyes

She trusts you Ricky, but she can’t help her instinctive reactions…

He just knows the signs when he see’s it

he’s not stupid

@Littlefeets

@benitz786

She shook her head, her lips trembling as she tried to brush past him.

She doesn’t want to make it a bigger deal…

It is a big deal

and rick’s gonna kill the bastard

@Littlefeets

@benitz786

“If it was Matty, I swear to fcking god, I’m going to murder him. I don’t care. Give me a name, Sophie. Now.”

Don’t worry Ricky, this one had nothing to do with Matty.

His only involvement was the fact that last time she had been with Matty at his house, he distracted her so she forgot stuff when she was leaving… so she went to go back for it

FUCK MATTY FOR LETTING HER GET CLOSE TO HIS DAD

matty deserves hell too

he’s getting beat up for this as well

@Littlefeets

His mind replaying her tears
Her mind replaying much worse…

Oh sophie

@Littlefeets

@benitz786

His hand wrapped around the long wrench he kept for changing his tires, and with the tool in hand, he slammed the trunk shut.

“Ricky, don’t—”

“Stay in the car.” His words were curt, his tone leaving no room for argument.

Rickyyyyyyy

STAY IN THE CAR

@Littlefeets

That by itself would only fuel rage more.
Cause if he was innocent, he would’ve had some more notable reaction I’m sure. Not simply being annoyed or unbothered by someone clearly very angry showing up in his office

he knows he’s not innocent

@Littlefeets

Yet he doesn’t even know Sophie’s name, even with all the times she’s been in that house.

…

he’s really not a good guy

@Littlefeets

Ricky certainly didn’t wait for him to confess about what he did.
But can’t say that any of those hits weren’t 100% deserved.

Ricky doesn’t need to wait to read between the lines

@Littlefeets

@benitz786

He crossed the room in three quick strides, pulling her into his arms without a word. She sobbed against his chest, her body trembling as he held her close.

“You’re okay,” he whispered, his voice softer now, though it still carried the weight of his emotions. “I’m here. You’re okay, Sophie. He won’t touch you again.”

For the first time that night, she didn’t try to pull away. She let herself sink into his embrace, her hands clutching the fabric of his shirt like it was the only thing keeping her grounded.

She needed that. She needed it desperately

And he’ll continue to be there

@Littlefeets

Likely it was
