-6 months later-
Already it has been six months. Six months since Rhett found me passed out on the sidewalk. We have had our moments but it wasn't nothing we couldn't work through. In these last 6 months nothing could be more perfect.

Rhett and I sit together at the table eating breakfast on a early Saturday morning."So,Rachel what do you want to do today?" He asked me.

I shrugged."I honestly have no idea."

"Well I have to go to the store today, you wanna come with me after breakfast?" He took a bite of waffles waiting for an answer.

"Yeah, that sounds good." I answered.

We finished our breakfast and headed to the store.

*Time Skip*

I wait out side of the checker line for Rhett to finish up.I wonder up and down the mini path way minding my own buissinus. I look over to the wall of missing children and my stomach instantly drops.

Rhett came over with the shopping cart full of groceries.
"Okay, you ready to go Rachel?" He asked. My face was pale. I felt sick, I swore I was going to faint again."Rachel what's wrong?" Rhett was concerned.

"We need to leave," I started to walk towards the exit.

"Rachel? Talk to me?" Rhett followed behind me.

"Not here, this isn't the place to discuss." I continued to walk until I reached the car.

The ride home was silent. The image that I saw was all I could think about. We arrive home and I run inside.I go to my bedroom and slam the door. I get on my bed and rock myself nervously. I was so terrified.

"Rachel, honey what's wrong?"Rhett came into my bedroom without even knocking.

"I saw it Rhett!"

Rhett took a seat on the bed."See what?"

"My face.....on the wall."

"The wall of what?"

"The wall of missing children! Rhett she is looking for me!" I started to panick.

Rhett pulled me close to to him and held on to me tight."Oh,Uncle, I'm so scared!" I started to cry,"She....she will kill you and me if she finds us."

"Rachel, nothing is gonna harm you," he said soothingly,"Okay,not when I'm around. I will protect us."

I looked up at him and he smiled. I smiled back weekly has he wiped my tears away.
