"Tom, it's okay. Your going to be okay." I say over him, as he flinches in the bed.

Toms been back home for a month now and almost every night, he wakes up with nightmares and is screaming and crying.

"Tom! Wake up!" I say louder, shaking him a bit and his eyes open suddenly and he looks up at me.

He sits up slowly and looks around, like he doesn't know where he is. "Jackson?" He ask quietly and looks at me.

"Yeah it's me." I sigh and frown.

Tom doesn't say anything at the moment, he just looks down. I see a tear go down his cheek as he wipes it away. I pull him into me and he rests his head on my shoulder as he cries.

"I'm so sorry Jackson. It's just that I wake up and sometimes, I forget that I'm home." He sobs. "I-I'm still shaken from it being Harrison."

"Yeah I am too." I sigh and rub his back. "It was a scary couple of months. But you back now, and it will be okay."

"I love you Jackson." Tom says and we lay down, and this time he holds me.

"I love you too, Tom." I smile, and Tom drifts off to sleep. But this time it was me lying awake with a funny feeling.

I didn't movie in the bed, I just stared at the wall that was in front of me, and listened to the sound of Toms breathing as he slept. I kept replaying the last few months in my head, to try and get a grip.

Why would Harrison do a thing like this? Wasn't he part of the family? And how long has he been working with Ross on this?

The whole thing just bugged me because I used to tell Harrison everything when Tom and I started dating. I tell him some stuff that I wouldn't even tell Seb. It makes my stomach turn that Harrison did this. He did this to his best friend.

But I guess that makes sense on why he made me go to Doctor Ross when I found out I was pregnant. She needed all the information I had on Tom and I. And this makes me shiver.

But over all, the thing I'm upset about the most. Was not Tom going missing. Was that almost everything I was told during the time he was gone was a lie.

"Are you going to be okay for filming in June?" I ask Tom from the kitchen, as I was making lunch and he was in the living room.

"I should be. I've talked to Jon a few times already." Tom says a bit quiet, focused on the TV.

I cut the sandwiches I made us and pick up both plates and walk over to the couch. "What are you waiting to watch Tom?" I ask him as I hand him his plate.

"The police said there would be information on Harrison and Ross during the news today. I wanna watch." Tom says and smiles at me, taking a bite of his sandwich.

I just nod back at him, not saying anything. I'm happy he wants to find out what happens to both of them but I'm also worried that this might set him off. I mean, Harrison was only his best friend for most of his life.

My phone buzzes beside me and I see a text from Sam come through.
