Shawn walked into the police station and saw John talking to another police officer. "John, I  need to speak to you."

"Come to my office, Shawn." John led him to his office. "What is it?"

"It's Deborah, someone has taken her."

"Are you sure?"

"She went into the park yesterday. Haven't been seen since. I went by today around the area she went by and found this." He said, showing him her bracelet.

"She could've just dropped it, Shawn."

"Gina told me she heard some commotion yesterday around that area. Two people arguing."

"Gina, as in the witch Gina?"

"John, this is serious. She could be out there, hurt."

"I'll get some men to go over to the park and take a look. I'm sure she didn't take well you picking July over her. She might've just packed and left, Shawn."

"I didn't pick anyone, John. And how do you know that?"

"Your mother told my mother. This is a small town."

"She had nowhere to go. This is the only place she could call home, she has family here that she has yet to find."

"Maybe she went into hiding for a bit. You hurt her, you got your memory back and it seemed like you guys were going to get back together and you choose July,"

"Again, I didn't choose her. She's my wife and I'm standing by her until she gets better. John, you need to check on this, please. I know something happened to her."

"Okay, I will. I'll keep you posted."

After closing the diner that night. Shawn headed over to the hospital. In July's room was his mother. "Mom, July. How are you two doing today?"

July stared at him seriously without saying a word. Wilma crossed her arms and shook her head. "I can't not believe you, son."

"What did I do now?" He said sitting down.

"You have the whole town looking for her!" July yelled. "Let her go! I'm glad she's missing."

"July, be quiet. If anyone hears you they might think you had something to do with it." Shawn whispered. "Or did you?"

"Shawn, please. How can you accuse her of something like that?" Wilma defended July.

"What about you, mom?"

"Are we ready to go?" The doctor asked as he walked into the room.

"You have no idea." July beamed.

"Alright, so we are all clear. No stressing out, please. You start counseling tomorrow morning."

"Yes, doctor." She smiled. "Shawn, can you help me up?"

He got off the chair, walked to her and gave her his arm. "If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate and give me a call." The doctor said handing her the discharge paperwork and leaving the room.

"Now you two head home. Your parents are keeping Andrew tonight so you two can have some time alone." Wilma said, pushing them out of the room.

At the house, Shawn walked in leaving her behind. "Aren't you going to help me up the stairs?" July asked.

"July, your legs are fine. I'm tired."

"Unbelievable, it starts. I thought you were going to be nice to me."

"Believe me, I am being nice, July. Goodnight." He walked up the stairs to their room.

She quickly followed him. "Why don't we cuddle up on the couch and watch a movie?"

"I just told you, I'm tired. I basically had to run the diner by myself."

"When are you supposed to spend time with me then, Shawn? You promised me." She pouted.

As he emptied his pockets, Deborah's bracelet fell on the ground. She quickly grabbed it and dangled it in front of his face. "What? I found it."

She slapped him. "This is hers! You are lying to me." She cried. She went to the dresser and knocked everything that was on top of it to the floor, breaking most of it. She started screaming.

Shawn tried to grab her. "July, take a deep breath. Relax, I'm not lying, I found it in the park. It might be hers, I don't know."

"She will always be first. I hope she dies!" She was crying then dropped on the floor holding her stomach. "Shawn!"

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know. It hurts too much. Something is not right. Take me to the hospital."

"What did you do now?" Camila asked Shawn as they arrived at the hospital.

"Camila, please." Anthony said as he saw Shawn pacing in the waiting room. "What happened, son?"

"We were talking."

"Talking, right." Camila interrupted as Anthony looked at her.

"As I was saying, we were talking and she wanted me to watch a movie with her and honestly, I was tired, work was crazy today. Then Deborah's bracelet fell from my pocket. I found it in the park on the ground and put it in my pocket, forgetting about it. July lost it, she started screaming and breaking things. Then suddenly she got a sharp pain in her stomach, and told me to bring her in. The doctor is there with her now." He said sitting down.

"Can't you see it's that woman's fault? How can you keep defending him?" Camila asked Anthony.

"Camila, we don't know what's really going on there. Okay? So, stop listening to gossip and just pay attention to your family."

"It's no gossip. Even his mother admitted it."

"Drop it, I say!"

"Mr Wilson." The doctor said.

"Yes, is she okay?"

"She is. But she lost the baby. I thought I made myself clear about her condition. This is serious. Look what happened. She is to remain calm and relaxed at all times."

"Doctor, that's my daughter. That's not possible with her. She's known to throw tantrums for the smallest things." Anthony said as Camila shot daggers at him with her eyes.

"It's all about her well being."

"How is she? Why didn't anyone let me know she was here?" Wilma said, walking furious towards them.

"Mrs Wilson, I'm so glad you are here. She's asking specifically for you. Only you." The doctor said as both of them walked off to July's room.
