They both sat on the couch, drinking beer and watching movies till 7 am next morning. The sun beams hit in and Drew pointed at the window. 

"Hey Dan, look." He laughed as he was very drunk.

Dan stumbled over the rug and tripped, falling into Drew's arms.

They were staring in each other's eyes, their faces inching closer and closer.

Danny was about to kiss him, and finally his dream is about to happen.

But Drew backed away, Danny's heart ached.

Danny went out to buy some utensils and food from the supermarket. He came back home late around 6 to 7 pm.

He was waiting for Drew to answer the door. 

'I guess I'll have to use the spare key.' 

He walked in, calling Drew. There was no answer. 

"Drew?!" Danny shouted.

There was no sign of him in the whole house and his phone was here, what happened.

He was about to call the police, when suddenly his phone rang 'unknown number'.

Someone was with a deep voice. 

"Drew Gooden is with us, we need 500,000 dollars by next week or you won't hear from him ever again!"
