Charlie's Pov:

Rugby practice was over. Nick had been sick today. My head was hammering. Noise. Noise. What are those people talking about? I don't get it. Why can't I walk faster? My legs hurt. My music's too loud. What of someone were to come up and ask me a question... I wouldn't be able to hear them. Did I hear leaves crunching, or was it just my music?

Charlie's head raced. He couldn't seem to focus today. Since Nick had been sick all week, Charlie had been left to fend for himself in school. This had caused three mental breakdowns and many trips to the bathroom just to calm down. Now, he was distracted by everything. He couldn't identify if it was anxiety or ADHD or.. well, what it was, but he felt overwhelmed by everything.

My head hurts. Now, that definitely was a leaf crunching..AHH!

Tori's Pov:

Charlie hadn't come home, and it was already 8 PM. He couldn't have gone to Nick's because he was sick... I'll call Tao.

"Hey Tao, is Charlie by yours?"

"No... why? Is he hurt? Is he okay?"

"Yeah, he's fine, thanks, Tao. But do you know if he's by any of your other friends?"

"No, he had rugby practice today.. he should be home by now... is he not?"

"No, no, it's fine, thanks, Tao."

God, is Charlie okay? Is he missing?

Charlie: This is ĵsĥsŵ;^fàì, I will give you Charlie back for a certain amount of money.

Tori: How much?

Charlie: I'll say... 2 million.

Tori: ... 2 million?

Charlie: 1.5?

Tori: I don't have any money! I'm broke.

Charlie: Then..no Charlie.

Maybe I should contact the police and they can track where he is... yeah, okay.

*After the call with police*

Okay, they found the location.. I just have to wait anxiously for them to bring him home.. hopefully safely.

*20 minutes later*

"Tori?"

"Thank God! Charlie, you scared the ever living shit out of me. Don't ever do that again."

"I'm sorry."

"No s word, right? That's what Nick says, right?"

"Yeah."

"It's not your fault.. I was just so scared omg.. I'm so glad you're okay."

"Thank you.. for saving me. Can I call Nick?"

"Of course, as long as he's not too sick."

"Yeah, thanks, Tori :)"

Charlie's Pov:

I walked upstairs and got out my phone, holding the screen in my hand. I pressed the call button on Nick's icon.

"Hey." Nick said and then sneezed.

"Hi, sorry if I called at a bad time."

"No s word. And no, you didn't call at a bad time, I just so happened to sneeze after you called." He laughed. I loved his laugh. And his smile.

"Okay. I kinda got like.. kidnapped."

"YOU WHAT?"

"Yeah, and like the person was really bad at their job."

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?"

"I just got back."

"WHY DIDN'T TORI TELL ME?"

"it wasn't a big deal. I was rescued."

"Omg.. you could have died, and I would have never known.."

"No... like I said, the guy was bad at his job."

"Omg."
