Love Runs Out (Second Book To Counting Stars) (Complete)

Chapter Twenty

*Lilly's P.O.V*

I blacked out. I blacked out when Mason caught me. I woke back up in the basement of the dance studio. Yes three main floors. I was handcuffed to the chair this time. You know if they was smart they would of just killed me by now. But they are not smart. They are total dumb asses. Soon I heard somebody coming down the stairs. I looked up and saw it was Mason. He had something in his hands. It was a glass of water.

"Justin's gone," He says.  "Here drink." I took a couple sips of the water. Soon he put it down.

"Mason why are you doing this?" I asked him. He looked at me.

"I never wanted this life.... Murdering innocent people, stealing money and all that. I would never let my brother know that though. He would think I'm a wuss. Just because he was the only one that was pretty fucked up after mom and dad died," He says. "I never liked them so much. When we would get in trouble they would blame the both of us and never hear my side of the story. Dad... He showed Justin how to use a gun, and that changed Justin a lot. When we killed Johnny and his family I thought that you shouldn't go through this. You should be happy. I guess that all changed when we came into your life." I smiled. "You know I always thought of stealing Justin's gun and pulling that trigger so I wouldn't have to feel any more of his pain or what he puts me through." I looked at him.

"Don't think that way Mason. Justin can't rule over your life. You should be able to do whatever the hell you want," I say.

"But if I do Justin will kill me," He says pacing.

"Mason, if he loves you he wouldn't do that," I say. He looks at me with those kind eyes.

"I hope the BAU finds you. Justin deserves to go to jail," He says. I looked at him.

"What about you?" I asked him.

"I deserve to go to hell," He says. 

"Never," I whispered. He smiles.

"Well I better get back up there before Justin comes back," He says. He grabs the cup. "I hope I get to speak to you again Lilly." He leaves and I smile.

"So do I Mason," I whispered.

*Hotch's P.O.V*

We got to the police station and walked in. I was looking for Henry and Jack. So was J.J. Soon we heard a voice.

"Mommy!" I looked over to see Henry running up to J.J and hugging him.

"Oh my goodness I am so glad your okay," She says. 

"Dad," I hear Jack. I open my arms and hugged him.

"Jack," I whispered as we were hugging. "Come on lets get you both back." We walked out.

"Dad we came from that way," He says point to the left. I looked at it and saw two dance studios. I smiled and got Jack into the car. Once I did I got into the front and started driving.

*Spencer's P.O.V* 

I was in the conference room when I heard a voice.

"Uncle Spencer," The voice says. I turned around to see Henry. I got down to his level and he hugged me. He was still too young to know what was going on.

"Hey buddy," I say acting happy.

"Is Lilly going to be okay?" He asked me. That is when my smile faded. I didn't know what to tell him. That was when J.J jumped in.

"Henry. Want to go find daddy?" She asked him. He nods and takes J.J's hand and walks off with him. I get up and James looks at me.

"We will find her Spencer," He says. He could see I was in pain. Soon I saw Hotch walked in.

"Jack showed me what way they came from. There were only two studios that he pointed to. Partners In Time, and Dance Bag. We might not have that much time with Lilly so we are going to search both," Hotch says. He grabbed a holster and a gun for James. "Have you had training?" He nods.

"Went for the FBI in Las Vegas," He says.

"What happen?" I asked him.

"I got kicked out. I don't want to talk about it. Let's just say I got blamed for something I didn't do," He says. Soon Hotch passed us all bulletproof vests.

" Prentiss,  Johnson, Morgan and Reid will go in Partners In Time dance studio, and Rossi, J.J  and I will go through the Dance Bag. If we find anything we will call on our walkies talkies got it?" Hotch asked. We nodded. We all walked to the elevator. Garcia was already waiting for s. Soon the door dinged and we all got in.

"Be safe my little Angels and bring Lilly back alive," She says. Soon the doors closed and we went down to the lobby.

*Lilly's P.O.V*

"HAD ENOUGH BITCH!" Justin yelled at me.So far he had punched me in the stomach, slapped me, punched me in the face. You name it. Last of all he thought I was giving up. I looked up at him and coughed up blood.

"Why should I give up. It only makes you stronger," I say. I saw the smirk on his face.

"Just like your dad. Strong. Also like your mom a pathetic little bitch," He says. He walks out and back up to the main floor. Mason looked at me one last time and left with him.

*Justin's P.O.V*

I walked back upstairs.

"Why the hell are you doing this?" Mason asked me.

"Because. Johnny abandon us. For that whore. And Lilly is part of that whore and that asshole," I yell.

"She is no like them," Mason says. I turned to look at him.

"Your not being weak like them are you?" I asked him.

"No," He whispers.

"Good," I say. Soon I saw a SUV pull up. "FUCK. Mason grab the girl. We have to get out of here."
