DELANO POV

I didn't even wait for the car to stop to jump out and run into Gia's house. She was pacing around with a worried look on her face. "Did you hear anything?".

"No! I'm really worried. What if something bad happened to him?" She asked.

"Look let's get everyone in the car and we can go look for him" I said. Gia grabbed Harlow and I took Salem. Strapping them both in their seats. Kai got in the back with them while Gia sat in the front.

"Where are we going to look?" She asked.

"Let's try the school. And then we can go around the city. He likes walking through there" I said.

"Why don't you guys just call the cops and place a missing persons report?" Kai asked.

Gia and I glanced at each other "we can't".

"Why not?" He asked.

"Kai... we cant okay. We'll find him" I said. He shrugged and went to put on his EarPods. "I mean Kai is right we should involve the cops on this".

"Yeah okay... I have a pending case from whooping Brias ass that day when I caught her with your mom and sister. Even though she's dead the case didn't get dismissed yet. And you also have a case too".

"My case was nine years ago. I think the statue of limitations ran out already" I said.

"If you think about it... the way that happened was because you are crazy" she said. Focusing on driving that day slowly came back to me...

My mood today was off. After that party Gia hasn't spoken to me. Granted we had a moment which resulted in us hooking up. Not like it wasn't going to happen anyway. She's been walking around here avoiding me. I let her have her space though.

Hearing laughter and talk I decided to be Nosey. I saw Bria and Gia and this new guy carter speaking. Paying close attention to gia she seemed interested in the conversation. Amazing she can talk to this idiot but she won't talk to me.

I hired carter last week. He was the pretty boy of this place already. He reminded me of a younger Channing Tatum. All the girls sworn over him. But I did notice he had an eye for Gia. Clearing my throat "Why aren't you all working?".

Gia sucked her teeth and looked away from me. Bria smiled of course "oh chill out Delano. We are just getting to know the new guy".

"Yeah Bria and pretty Gia here were just being friendly" he smiled eyeing Gia. My anger was slowly rising. "Get back to work. And Gia can I speak to you?" I asked.

"No, like you said I need to get back to work" she said.

I sighed "we need to talk".

"Look she said no. Let her be" carter said. When I saw carters arm go around Gia's shoulder I snapped. "Carter get your hands off of Gia! Ever hear of sexual harassment?".

"Gia is fine. She can always push my arm off" he smiled. Walking up to them and grabbed Gia away from him. "What is your problem?!" She asked.

"What the fuck?" Carter angrily said. Ignoring him and pulling Gia with me... I felt a jerk of movement. Looking back I see carter grabbing her arm pulling her towards him. "Carter mind your business this has nothing to do with you. I need to talk to gia!".

"It's obvious she doesn't want to speak to you" he said. Today wasn't my day. Letting Gia go I approached carter face to face. Just giving him a stare down which he reciprocated. I saw the dumb smirk appearing on his face. That's when I just punch him. He fell to the floor. Bria stood there wide eyed. Gia pushed me "You psycho!!! Are you crazy?".

Standing there realizing what I just did. A few customers called the cops on me because carter was unconscious. I was arrested for assault.

"Delano? Hello?" Gia waved her hand in my face. Nodding "yeah...".

"Are you going to get out of the car and ask around or do you want me to do it?" She asked.

"No stay in the car" I got out and went into the store. The man behind the counter smiled "good evening, sir".

I gave him a small smile "did you see this boy in here today?" Showing him a recent picture of Ryan. He examined the picture and nodded "yes! He was in here about I say three thirty. He paid for his drink but he left with two men. They seem to know him".

"Two men? Are you sure?" I asked.

"Yes, very sure. The two men approached him they had small talk and the next thing I know he was gone" he said. Shaking my head it just hit me my son was taken by the worst two people in the world. Gia is going to flip out. "Thanks". I walked out and got back in the car "So?... Anything?" She asked.

"Ryan was technically taken by our dads" I said. She gasped "WHAT?!... you better drive this car to my dads home and then to your dads house. We have to find Ryan. He could be in danger!".

"Mom don't worry. You should be worried about the other two. They're in more danger than Ryan right now" Kai chimed in. Looking at Gia who was in a frenzy state of worry. "It's true dad. Trust me ryan will come home in one piece. But the other two won't be so lucky" Kai said.
