Chapter XVIII: Missing

~ 💀 ~

*TJ's POV*

" This is the 911 dispatch what's your emergency?"

"My name is TJ Perkins a-and I-I'm calling b-because my girlfriend is m-missing. I need help."

I sobbed on the phone talking to the 911 dispatch. It was hard for me to complete a sentence because I'm scared. Bella is missing and I'm scared. I called her phone and she never answered, and to top it all off she left her phone here. I called everyone one I knew asking if they saw her around or heard anything from her but they all said no. I even called our friends and they even said that they haven't seen her either.

" Okay sir I need you to remain calm I'm sending someone over to you. Would you like me to stay on the phone with you until they arrive?"

" Yes p-please." I cried.

I keep shedding tear after tear because I want him back. I never meant to hurt her in any way. I just wish she could've talked to me instead of just running away. It's dark outside and I'm worried.

A couple of minutes later the police had finally came. I dried my eyes and greeted them at the door and invited them into the living room. They were two muscular men. One was tan with black curly hair and dark brown eyes, and the other was a little pale with blonde hair and blue eyes. We all sat down on the couch, and they began asking me questions.

"Mr.Perkins I'm Officer Smith and this is Officer Warren. we're going to do everything we can to get your girlfriend back to you. Do you know the last time you saw her ?"

I took a deep breath and answered. "T-This morning before I left. The last time I checked on him was when he was in bed asleep. I had woke him up for a second just to tell her that I'll be back later." I started crying again.

"Do you know why she left?" Officer Warren asked.

"No. When I came home earlier I found this letter on the table. She said that she was running away."

"Can you give us a description of her ?" Officer Smith asked.

"She's s about five feet tall, she has brown eyes and long black hair. She has a nose ring. She has tattoos on both arms. And she's two months pregnant with our baby."

"Do you know what she was wearing the last time you saw her ?"

"N-No. All I know is that she wears black a lot." I said as I tried to wipe my tears away again.

After the officers had finished writing down all the information I had given them I gave them the letter Bella had left me and they read it. After they read it they turned their attention back to me. their expressions had turned sad. Officer Smith had placed his hand on my shoulder and handed me a tissue.

"Mr.Perkins I promise Officer Warren and I will do everything we can to find her . We will have a search party look for her and if you can see if you can put up some fliers and a phone number so we can reach you if we hear or find anything. I'm so sorry."

"Thank you so much. You guys have no idea how much this means to me." I sobbed

"Take care okay." He said.

"We'll let you know if we hear anything new and we will investigate."

I nodded my head and thanked them again. After they left I curled up on the couch holding a pillow crying my eyes out. Since I found out that she left I haven't been able to stop crying. I never wanted her to leave. I can't count the number of times I've told her that I love her , I thought she believed me. I never thought she was a burden. She's everything to me, I'm blessed to have her in my life. We have a great thing going on why would she run away? Why won't she tell me what's going on with her? Why is she keeping secrets from me? Do I not matter to her anymore? it hurts to know that the love of your life ran away when you weren't at home. Not only that but she's carrying our child.......our baby. How am I even sure that she can even take care of herself? She's too vulnerable and she'll most likely do anything just to make someone happy.....even me. We were supposed to be a family.

If I don't see her anymore I'm going to stop breathing. I need her in my arms right now I don't want her to be any where else. I don't know where she is......I just know that she's far away. Far away from home.
