Ruin the Demise were on another world tour. Every night a new city, a new venue, a new crowd. For Ryder is was exhilarating, the noise, the faces. This was his passion. His love. Touring the world with his band, and of course, you. His beautiful wife. You had met when you were younger and had such a beautiful wedding ceremony. He knew from the instant he met you that you were his soulmate and he promised to keep you by his side till the day he died. Two years ago, you had given birth to twins. A boy and a girl.

And so, here you were. Joining him on his world tour. It was long, with shows every few days. The tour bus was pretty and you got along with everyone so it wasn't a bother really. You loved that he was famous, that he could live out his dream. But it was a lot. Especially for you.

The tour had just started. A few shows through England. Currently, the band was in London, the final show before you went to America. The venue was packed, filled with people of all kinds singing along to the support acts before the band came on.

You were backstage in the lounge, keeping your two toddlers busy with toys and naps. You enjoyed the concerts, and since the bassist, Sam, had a daughter too, it was great to be backstage with his wife and his kid.

The door opened and the band came in, laughing and glistening with sweat from the performance. Ryder's eyes instantly found yours, and he grinned like a lovesick puppy. He was a doting father and the best husband you could ask for. He rushed in, moving to kiss you like he hadn't seen you in weeks.

"My darling..." He whispered, kissing your hair before crouching down to hug his kids. "I hope you two were nice to mummy."
