"What do you mean there was no one in my apartment?!" Lindsey became highflying distressed, "Where is my girlfriend?!"

"There was just you on the floor when we found you...no one else was around, and we didn't see anyone on the way up"

"We have to find her!" Lindsey tried once more to get up

"Your not going anywhere, we need to get you in for a brain scan!" The doctor told him

"No I need to know where she is! She's pregnant!" He panicked

"We can get the police up here but there's not much we can do, I'm sorry," the nurse said genuinely

Lindsey was absolutely beside himself, why would she just dissappear? Was she safe, did Jimmy come back? He soon began hyperventilating

"Mr. Buckingham, you must calm down or we are going to give you something," The doctor told him

"No! I need to leave! She's not safe, you don't understand what happened!" He tried hard to get up

"We need a sedative," the doctor told one of the nurses who then rushed out to get it

"I don't need a sedative! I need my girlfriend!"

"Sir, the police are on their way, they are going to help you."

They quickly injected Lindsey with a sedative to keep him calm, within no time he was once again out cold

When Lindsey awoke he was laying in a hospital bed, his head bandaged.

Lindsey noticed a cop standing by his bed

"Mr Buckingham?"

"Did you find her?" He tried to sit up quickly

"So far we have not been able to locate her no" Lindsey didn't know whether to scream or cry

"Why would she have left? Was this a domestic disturbance between the two of you?" He felt bad for asking but it was his job to

"Of course not! I wouldn't hurt her-I love her! It was Jimmy, her ex! He-he-" Lindsey broke down in sobs

"I know this is hard, but I'm going to have to ask what happened" Lindsey didn't know if he would be able to get it out

"We were laying down in the bed room and there was a knock at the door-I went to answer it. The next thing I knew Jimmy was over powering me. Stevie came in and he went after her while I was trying to recover and get to her....he had her on the bed and I tackled him. He pushed me into the table and I hit my head. While I was out he-he raped Stevie," Lindsey cried

The cop wrote down everything Lindsey was telling him, he could tell it was extremely hard for him to talk about

"Do you know this for sure?"

"There was blood all over the bed sheets, I could tell that Stevie was in major shock when I woke up. What else could have happened?"

"That's why I'm asking sir! Well we've checked where Jimmy works and apparently he hasn't been in for a few days"

"Days?! Where is he?! He could have her! She's seven months pregnant!" Lindsey became distressed

"We are fully aware of that, but if we can't find either of them...one last question, is the baby Stephanie is carrying yours?"

"No...it's Jimmy's. He started to abuse her and she ran away and came to me. We both agreed that I would father the baby."

"The thing is, if he has Stevie, if he's threatened her to keep quiet, because the baby is his you have no right to fight it whatsoever" Lindsey was given a sympathetic glance
