Divorce on the way

missing

TK had no idea how long he had been away from home. Alex had blindfolded him so he couldn't see where they were taking him. He remembered something that Liv and Eliot taught him when he was younger. "Just remember, if someone ever makes it hard for you to see then listen. Listen for anything you may recognize while they take you." He listened for anything he might recognize from his surroundings. He heard what sounded like tires on a dirt road and farm animals in the distance. He started searching for his phone with his hands and grabbed it.

He was unaware that Trayvon had seen it until he felt extreme pain in his hands and heard what sounded like metal hitting bone. He guessed that he had hit his hands with a gun. TK let out a loud scream whenever it made contact with his skin. He felt Trayvon hit him 1 time for every word.

"Do-" smack "not-" smack "try-" smack "to-" smack "go-" smack "for-" smack "your-" smack "phone-" smack "you-" smack "bastard-" smack.

TK was sure that the bones in his hands were shattered from the 10 blows. TK dropped the phone and started crying in the backseat. Carlos had sat right where he knew that TK was relaxing when he called him 1 hour ago. His dad had tried to get him to move but he wouldn't. He chose to just sit there wondering how scared TK must have been when Alex and Trayvon took him. "He must've been so scared, dad. He was probably begging for his life. I should've been able to see this coming. Why couldn't I see this coming?"

Gabriel sat next to him feeling the same guilt that Carlos felt. He had been a cop for over 40 years, why couldn't he see that Alex and Trayvon were going to escape prison together? And why did they take TK off all people? "I'm asking myself the same question mijo, why couldn't I see it coming?" Gabriel held his son close while they both cried and prayed. They prayed that TK would be okay when they found him, that they'd find him alive. After they both calmed down Carlos called Owen to tell him about what had happened.

Captain Strand picked up on the third ring. "Hey Carlos, why are you calling?" Carlos didn't know how he was going to react if the answer was no but he needed to ask. "Captain Strand, did TK come home at all today?" Carlos could hear the older man sigh which made him laugh.

"Carlos we have been over this, call me Owen. And no he's not here. I thought he was gonna be at your place today?"

"He was supposed to be, but he isn't anymore. Cody is still here, which worries me."

"I'll be right there." Owen gets there 15 minutes later and sat down next to Carlos. Owen had decided to go and see Olivia for help. Carlos could see the anger in Olivia's eyes when he told her that Alex had raped TK. TK wished he could see where he was but he knew that he was in a basement somewhere. He heard the door open a footsteps approach him.

"Hello? Is someone there? Trayvon? Alex? Is that you?" TK had just noticed how cold he was and wondered why. "Why is it so cold in here?" He didn't know that he was tired too a chair completely naked. He finally knew who he was down there with when he spoke.

"Hi baby, did you miss me?" When Alex touched his bear chest, TK realized he was at least shirtless. "How did you know where I was?"

"I followed you baby boy." He said like it was obvious that he had stalked his ex-husband. TK had no idea why Alex had followed him home. "Why did you follow me home, Alex?"

"I didn't follow you home. You never went home. I followed you to that home wrecker, Carlos's condo, but you never went to the place you live." TK knew that saying to Alex what was on his mind at that moment would be dangerous. But he couldn't stop himself. "I may live with my father but that isn't my home. My home is with Carlos, Alex."

As soon as the words left his mouth he felt a fist connect with his mouth. When he fell to the ground he realized that he was completely naked and realized what was going to happen to him again. "Please don't do this again Alex please." It was about 2 days later that SVU, Carlos and Gabriel found TK alive in Trayvon's basement. It was clear that he was raped and beaten badly over the course of those 2 days. Carlos was the one who found him. "Alex please you've hurt me enough this week please just not today I'm begging you." Carlos felt his heart break when he heard the exhaustion and pain in his voice.

"It's not Alex mi vida, it's me. It's Carlos. You're okay, you're safe." Carlos kept his voice soft to not spook TK. "Carlos, baby, is that you? Is that really you?" Carlos almost cried when he heard the hopefulness in TK's voice. It also made him wonder how many times in those 2 days did Trayvon and/or Alex use Carlos's voice to sadistically play with TK? Carlos approached TK and gently removed the blindfold so they were looking into each other's eyes. Carlos also untied TK's hands and feet so that they could hug each other. While they were hugging Carlos wrapped his jacket around TK to cover him up a little before calling others to them. "Guys he's down here he's alive!!"
