Sorry. I should have given the clue: "Namely, a person who sticks around? Hardly"

SC = namely

A Bonder = Person who sticks

ABSCONDER - Runaway

Perhaps I should have added that SC is SCILICET - namely

"A similar expression is scilicet, abbreviated as sc., which is Latin for "it is permitted to know"."
