William's POV:

It's late so we decided to get take-out. Also, I'm too exhausted to cook us dinner. I'm hoping Henry is doing alright...he sounded fine on the phone.

My phone's ringing.

"Michael, keep eating, I'll be there in a second" I say in a hurry as I sit on the couch and pick up.

It's Henry

"William, I need your help"

He sounds concerned

"Charlie's gone"

I think I lost my head for a second

"William?"

"I'm coming over"

"You don't have to"

"You need all the help you can get Henry, I'll be there" I hurriedly say as I tell Michael to put his siblings to bed after they eat and rush out to my car.

I hope she's okay

I hope Henry's okay too


Henry's POV:

""William's coming over to help, it'll be okay" I tell my wife

She's sniffling and wiping away her tears as she sits slumped on the sofa holding my arm. "She wasn't in her bed, o-or in the kitchen or the bathroom o-or anywhere else-" she hurriedly mutters.

"-and the door, the front door was open Henry, it was open!" she exclaims.

"We should go outside to look!" She says as she gets up and motions to the door. I walk out with her.

As soon as we do, William gets out of his car and runs toward us.

"Anything yet?" He asks, obviously panicking

"No" my wife shakily replies

"Any idea where we should look? She isn't anywhere near home.... she could be anywhere from next block to the diner-"

Wait

THE DINER

"Evan"

"Evan?"

"She mentioned about wanted to talk to him"

"You don't think she ran back??" My wife exclaimed as I watched William's face go downcast.

"I'll help look, we'll find her, I know we will" He assures me. But the way he says it I know he isn't positive.

We head to his car and drive back to the diner.

Please be there Charlie
