where are you?

4

I stand there staring at the floor then feel arms wrap around my waist. "Come on Pookie let's clean up Luke's mess in the kitchen and then we can work on your Japenese some more." 

I let out a soft giggle and shake my head. "How did you know Luke made a mess?"

"Simple! Im magic. And my little pookie bear would never make a mess! So it had to be Luke or Gabe! Its always those boys fault." He chuckles as i glance at him and giggle again. "Pookie you stop that giggling right now. Owen will chop off my ... Well he will be very angry if he calls and im giggling when we have work to do."

At his words I frown and look at the floor again. " sang wipe that look off your face right now. Its not your fault and you couldn't have stopped it. Besides maybe he is buying you flowers and his phone got smashed. Don't borrow trouble." 

He is trying to make me feel better but I know its bad. 

As Sean calls Victor I begin to clean up the kitchen. What could Silas have been doing at the shopping center? Where is he? Is he okay? Okay okay deep breath stay calm. 

"Pookie?" 

"In the kitchen Sean." 

"Pookie when was the last time you talked to Victor?" Oh my god. Please say Victor is in the shower! Why isn't he picking up? 

"Sean have you checked his tracker on his phone?"

"Stay calm Sang im going to txt everyone and see if they have heard from him. I'll let you know if there are any new developments." 

Developments. Developments! I hate when they get all technical. It means they are worried. Why should we be worried. Victor had some interviews with his family then a job he was doing at the college. Maybe something happened. Stay focused and work towards figuring this out. 

I go back to cleaning when I hear Sean talking. Must be Owen. Once I get done putting everything away I move back to the dining room. I'm itching to do something so I grab the laptop and look up the Fulltree shopping center. The owner.... The stores... Nothing interesting there. I've burned about 20 mins and Sean still hasn't come back into the room. Its awful quiet ... He must have went into a different room. 

I decide I have had enough sitting there and go to our home gym. My yoga pants and tank top are okay to work out in. Some of my favorite memories during the last year have happened in here with Nathan. He relaxes in our gym. And he enjoys moving me around the equipment. God is that boy strong. And fast! He can take something away from me before I even realize he has reached for it. Owen and Sean decided last year that it was time for me to get healthy. So Sean North and Nathan got together and decided what my vitamin intake diet and fitness routine would be. No matter how hard I fought they eventually got me in shape. Took longer than they thought because I had Luke sneaking me cookies cupcakes and candy bars. When North found out he freaked and threw out all the sweets in the house. Including Luke's secret stash in his room. 

I turn on the sound system and get the treadmill going. Nathan taught me to go into the zone while training. So that's what I do. I run ... And run some more. I jog to the practice mats and start practicing my skills. I got mad skills according to Nathan and Silas. I can take down all the boys now. Owen was the best. He went on a job over the summer for three weeks and when he came back I challenged him. Let's just say when he finally picked himself up from the floor he had to eat some humble pie. He always tells me to not let the boys treat me like a girl but then he made the same mistake. God I love my boys. CRAP!!!

I need to find Sean. Grabbing a towel at the door I start to wipe off my sweat. 

"Sean?"

"Sean?"

Where is he? I jog through the house calling for him. He's not upstairs... He's not in the music room, dining room, kitchen, Owens office, living room, family room, or bathroom. Grabbing my phone off the kitchen counter I bring up the cameras and start checking. He's not by the tennis court, basketball court, pool, garage, the front gates it open. What the heck! Why is the gate open? I quickly look back at the garage cameras and see his car is still here. Where is he?

I just keep asking myself what could of happened. And where are they?

My phone dings.

Owen "Miss Sorenson go into lockdown. I cannot reach Sean or Mr. Morgan. We have not located Mr. Korba. There is something going on and we need you safe!"

I run into the safe room and start lockdown procedure while looking back through the cameras on my phone. Where is Sean? Where is Silas? Where is Victor? 

I can do this. They are safe! I can do this. They are safe! This mantra starts playing through my mind as lockdown is finally complete. 

Do I just wait for them to find each other or do I wait for them to come get me.... What do I do?
