The next morning came quickly for everyone on the ranch not many of them slept, they all wanted to start the day and get Haley back, Shawn headed down to Rip and Beths house after he finished getting ready, he was hoping today would be and easy one with watching Tommy. Hopefully he wouldn't see them while they watched the house, getting to their house he saw rip standing by the truck with a cooler "I see one of use was the smart ones to bring food and drinks for the day" Rip laughed as Shawn got closer " Yeah well your mind is not all there, but then again was it ever?" Shawn laughed " haha now you ready" Rip nodded as they got in the truck and followed the directions that the girls gave them

Getting to the house they saw all the lights were off still which was a good sign. Parking the truck somewhere they could hide for the day, they parked it then got out and started looking around the house to make sure there was no traps or anything  and also looking for the best way in. Rip walked over to Shawn and whispered " You good. ready to watch?" Shawn nodded "ready to watch" they both went back to the truck and sat in there keeping and eye on the house for any sense of movement 

Back on the ranch the everyone else was waking up and getting ready to go over to the Bennett's house to clean it up. John noticed Kayce's car was gone, knowing his son he was there already. He waited for the three girls before heading over there. Getting there they saw Kayce's truck in the drive way " I'm not surprised that he is the first one here" Beth said as John parked next to Kayce's car. Getting out the all headed inside watching Kayce moving things around  "You know, I have an idea, lets cleaned up first then we can rearrange everything in all the rooms, maybe things being switched around would help her when's  she gets back home" Julianna suggested as they all looked around then at Kayce " Sounds like a  plan" they all split up to tackle a different room in the house to try and get it the house cleaned and organized  and ready for when she came home

Shawn sighed as they looked at the house watching Tommy come outside for the fifth time for a smoke " So we found out that he comes outside at least five times for a smoke in the morning. there's gonna be more that he does through out that day" Rip looked over at Shawn before looking back  out the window "Im sure there is  but lets not forget that this is only day one hopefully there's more to this day just give it time, I know it's driving you crazy but we got this" Shawn sighed as they watched on. As the sun went down they learned that  Tommy really doesn't do much during the day, he'll get stuff delivered to the house so he doesn't have to leave. So what was  the reason he left the house yesterday. Could it have been haley convinced him of something to get him to leave?

Back at Haley's house Kayce walked up to Julianna  as he finished straightening up the hallway "Is it weird being back here?" Julianna laughed " It is but I know some how we would end up back here, but I didn't think It be for this reason" Kayce nodded "Yeah I honestly didn't think that I would see her or any of your guys again or that I even had a daughter" She looked at him " you know it killed her that night leaving you, and im not saying what she did was right cause even when she got to Shawn's how I told her that she needed to come back here, but you know Haley she was worried it would get in the way of your dream" Kayce nodded " I know but I wish that she had stayed maybe things would have been different" Julianna shrugged " Maybe, but then again you guys through out your life dance around who you felt about each other, and that night happened for a reason"

John, Beth and Ashton  headed upstairs as they finished downstairs joining Kayce and Julianna ,  " okay so we thinking, switching Haley's room to the master, Evelyn's to either Haley's room, new furniture and everything?" Ashton asked Kayce nodded " That's sounds  like a plan" Beth nodded as she looked at her dad "Think we can get a couple of wranglers to help us change everything and get rid of things while me and the girls go pick out everything new and new paint" John looked at her " Yes, me and Kayce will head back and get some of the guys and have them come back with us and start emptying out the rooms. Julianna do you want your's and Shawn's room to stay the same?" She shook her head " I would say leave them for now, let just get the main things done first" Kayce looked at all them"Okay then let's all go" Ashton turned and headed down stairs followed by everyone else to start the work and changes on the house 

Shawn yawned as he checked the time on his watch "Want to call it a day and come back tomorrow, it looks like he pretty just stay with the house, she most of wanted something yesterday" Rip nodded "yeah lets head back, the faster we figure out a plan the faster we get your sister back" Starting the truck Rip pulled away from the house, this could end two different ways,  bringing Tommy to the train station or if they didn't  plan everything out in time it could end up with him taking haley and it being longer til they found her and returned her safely.
