Boy Next Door | l.h [completed]

Chapter 31

"Luke?" I woke up, vision was blurry.

My vision soon came back and I found myself in Matthews room still. I was sitting straight now on the floor. Luke was next to me, laying down and passed out.

I shook Luke. "Luke?" my voice cracked. Luke finally woke up, confused on what happened too.

"Emma? What happened?" his hand landed on his head, rubbing his temple as if he had a headache. "Are you ok?" I asked.

"Yeah. I guess. Are you ok? What happened?" he asked. "I'm fine. Matthew!" I jumped up and searched for him in his crib.

He was know where to be found. I searched the rest of the room but no sign of him.

"Where is he?! Where could he be?!" i paced around the room panicking.

"Ok. Calm down Emma. Panicking won't help. Let's go call the police now" Luke calmed me down. I gave in and calmed down.

I still paced back and forth in Matthews room.

Luke ran down the stairs and got his phone that was apparently left on the kitchen counter.

Soon after he came back upstairs and called the police.

"They will be here shortly" he murmured as I heard a click from is phone, indicating that the call was over.

"Oh my god Luke. What if someone took him? What if he is kidnapped. He could be in Russia right now for all we know!" I panicked even more at the thoughts of Matt being taken away.

"Emma! That's not going to happen. We are getting Matthew back soon" he took ahold of my shoulders, keeping a firm grip on them.

I managed to get out of his grip and I hugged him so tightly. My arms wrapped around his torso like a blanket.

"I just want this to be normal. I just want it to be a normal family Luke" I cried into his chest.

"We will be. Once we find out who did this, we will take them to jail and have a normal family relationship" He finished.

But all I could think about is who would take my little boy? Then it occurred to me.

Natalie and Ashton. But wait, Ashton wouldn't go that far. Natalie, yes. She is a lunatic. But would they really go that far?

Maybe they would.
