Jordan's POV****

Nichole pulls me out of the store and down the walkway leading to the next item that we were looking for. "Is that Jerome on a kids merry-go-round?" I ask confused. Nicole laughs and nods, before running up to him. "What are you doing?" Nicole asks, still laughing. "Who knows anymore" Jerome replies, chuckling. "Hey at least you found one of your hidden objects" he adds as I pull out my phone. As soon as I pull it out, Jerome holds his hand out in front of him (as if holding a sword) and continues riding the merry-go-round. "I have no words for you" Nicole laughs. I shake my head as Nicole and Jerome give each other a quick hug. "Come on car. One more item!" I say excitingly.

We walk around the mall a few more times before stopping. "Wait! Wasn't there a plant by the old guy?!" I ask as Nichole and I come to realize that we had already passed the hidden object before. As fast as we could, Nichole and I run to the plant where we see the whole group of guys waiting. No sign of the other group. "COME ON!" the guys scream and Nichole and I pick up our pace and run faster.

"Congratulations Jordan and Nichole. You were first" Mitch says as we come to a hault. We lean over and gasp for air as we see the other group running at us. I smile but then realize that on their faces is no sign of defeat, but horror. "What happened?" Mitch asks, pulling Katherine into a hug. I lean up and look at her, waiting for her answer. "It's him!". Oh no. "WE SAW TJ!" June yells as I fall to the floor with the world turning black.

Ty's POV****

Luckily I was standing close enough to Jordan that I caught her before she hit her head on the floor. "How?! He was dead!" I yell with my heart racing a thousand miles an hour. "I have no clue but we each saw him! He's alive!" Alesa explains, shaking.

~Listen to Arms by Christina Perri for this part to feel the tone~

"Guys we need to get the girls out of here" Adam directs, leading our group out to the car. I carried Jordan and held her on our way back to the house. There was no way that I was going to let TJ take my wife away from me. I moved Jordan's bangs out of her face, looking down at her. She looked so peaceful this way. Every night that I would wake up I would just watch her sleep. If I woke up and could tell that she was having a nightmare, all I had to do was pull her into my arms and she immidiately looked relieved and happy.

"Ty?" Adam asks, making me come back to reality. I look up and realize that we were back at the house and the others were making their way out of the car and into the house. I step out, with Jordan in my arms, and walk to the house, up the stairs and into our bedroom. I set her down in the bed and tucked her in. As soon as I made my way to the door, she started cringing and yelping as if something was pinching her whole body. Another nightmare. I climbed in the bed and pulled her to me, holding her tight. A smile, soon enough, spreads across her face as she cuddles into my chest.

Well Tj's back. Now what to do?

~DUN DUN DUN!!!!!!!!!!! DON'T KILL MEH! I had to add a little more drama into the story so I figured why not the bad guy of the series XD. Thanks for the support and I'm sorry if it feels like I have been kind of distant when I'm writing lately. A lot has been going on making my mind feel like it's never going to take a break. Thank you guys again!~
