Hope you enjoy chapter 6.

Tyler's POV

It's been a couple weeks since Anna's been gone. Everyday I miss her more and more. The thought of me never seeing her again haunts me constantly.

"Tyler. The police are here." My mom says opening my bedroom door.

"What do they want?" I ask.

"They have some news." The same cops who came to question me a week or so back stepped into my room.

"Hey Tyler. How are you holding up?" The lady cop asks me. I respond with a shoulder shrug.

"Well we know who took Anna." My head bolts up at her when she says this.

"Are you kidding me? That's great!"

"It's the same man who took Brook Evens last year. However, this man is very smart and it's difficult to find and capture him." There goes my happiness.

"If it's so hard to get him why'd you let him go in the first place?" My response is followed by the cops exchanging worried looks.

"Well Tyler. The thing is, we didn't." The male cop says. My stomach drops.

"You're kidding me. How do you let a guy like this get out?" I say. I must have been a bit angry because my mom told me to calm down. I shake my head.

"No. I won't calm down until Anna's back and alive." Me being a ball of rage at the moment, I push past the officers and my mom. I just needed to be out of there before I started going off on people.

There's this one spot I go to when I'm in these sort of moods. No one really knows about it and I'm happy about that.

I get to the top of the hill getting close to the overhang. I sit down on the grass and look out onto the city below. Something about this place just calms me down.

"Tyler?"

"How did you get here?" I ask the lady cop, slightly pissed.

"Well I may have followed you here."

"Oh just great." I say rolling my eyes.

"You ran off before we were done. I wanted to check up on you."

"I'd be a hell of a lot better if you left." Ok I know I sound like a bit of an asshole right now but it's really pissing me off how people don't understand I need space and clearly not in the mood to talk. I hear her sigh before walking away.

After that I just stare out into the city. I was there for so long it became dark out. I watched the city stand out from the darkness with its glowing lights.

I lay down on the grass and begin to watch the stars. My mind wanders more and that's when I started crying. I just want Anna home so bad. I can't stop thinking about her and what she must be going through.

I get up and quickly and wipe away the tears before punching the side of a tree. It hurt but honestly I don't care. Maybe if I sleep I'll feel better.

"What are we going to do about Tyler?" I hear my mom ask my dad when I get home. I quietly close the door and hid behind a wall so I can listen without them knowing.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean he seems angry about all this."

"Laura he's just trying to deal with Anna being gone." She sighs.

"I don't like him going out there at night now. I mean who knows what could happen. He could get kidnapped and killed. What if Anna gets-" No don't you dare say that.

"Don't say that Laura. I'm sure she's fine. She'll come back. Alive." My dad says. Glad he knows to stay positive.

"But Tyler?" My mom repeats.

"Tyler's fine."

"Maybe he should go to therapy until she comes back. Or for some time because it might help him not be upset so much. I just feel like it could get worse."

"What? You're saying our sons anger is gonna make him break the law? I'm sure that-" Before he could finish I walk into the room.

"I'm not going to therapy or going turning into criminal." My mom bites the corner of her lip knowing I had been listening the entire time.

"Is that what you think is going to happen mom? That my angers going to spiral out of control and I'm going to end up killing people?"

"Tyler I'm just saying that maybe you don't need to get so mad."

"Laura you're overreacting." My dad cuts in.

"No I'm-"

"No mom dad's right. My anger isn't bad and I'm not going to therapy. End of story." I walk out of the family room before walking up the stairs and slamming my door shut.

I lay on my bed and close my eyes. Soon there's a knock on the door and my dad comes in quietly closing the door behind him.

"Yeah?" I say.

"You ok?" He asks. I look at him.

"No." I scoff.

"Listen. I'm sorry about your mom. I know that with everything going on it's ok to be upset." He says. At least someone is not overreacting.

"I heard her saying she doesn't like me going out at night anymore, which I completely understand, but I just need to be truly alone at times and that's why I go out."

"I know Tyler but just come home at a reasonable time ok? We just want you safe and care for you." I nod my head.

"Ok dad."

"Now it'd probably be wise for you to get some sleep."

"You're right. Goodnight." I say.

"Night Tyler see you in the morning." He walks out and closes the door behind.

I start to yawn and take off my shirt before getting under the covers and falling asleep.
