Billies POV
I sit in my car and sigh before driving home. "What just happened?" I think to myself as I pull into the driveway. As I approach the door, I hear crying from the inside of the house. What happened? Is Finneas home?
As I open the door, I see my mom on the couch crying and I immediately go and hug her.
"Where's Finneas?" I ask.
"I don't know, Billie, we don't know" she says in between her sobs.
"What do you mean we don't know? Shouldn't he be at Claudia's house?" I ask, starting to tear up.
"He was" my mom helps as she walks out the door.
"Wait!" I yell, getting up to see where she's going.
"I need to go for a drive. I'll be back soon, Billie." She says in a stern voice.
"O-okay mom, love you." I say, worried as she drives off.
Incoming call from Finneas 🎸
I get a phone call, and as I pick up my phone I realize it's Finneas. Where is he? How is he calling me? I pick up.
"Billie, I need your help. I'm at a house and i think it's gray and it's on Bluemont Roa-"
He hangs up.
"Oh no, oh no, no, no, no." I whisper to myself.
I get in my car and start driving to Bluemont Road. Gray house. As I turn onto Bluemont Road, I let out a sigh.
"Every house is gray." I mumble under my breath.
I'm driving very slowly, looking into the windows of each house and checking for Finneas or any sign of him.
As I'm passing by the houses, losing hope I see a flash of light in one of the windows followed by a bang.
A gunshot. That's where he is. It has to be where he his.
I immediately park on the corner and sit in my trunk, staying low just in case someone sees me. I call the police.
"911 what's your emergency?"
"H-hello I'm on Bluemont Road a-and...." I get out, studdering.
"And?"
"And I think my missing brother and his girlfriend are in a house and I heard a gunshot and I'm scared." I say. Of course I'm scared, why did I need to clarify that to her?
"Officers are on their way, remain calm and stay away from the gunshots. They'll be here shortly."
"Thank you, goodbye." I say before hanging up.
I begin to cry, I don't exactly know why I just do. I call my mom but she doesn't answer. Of course. She must've left her phone at home...
I open up my phone and my finger hovers over the contact for Brandon. Why do I want to call him? I need to call him. No I don't.
I just sit in my car, crying until I hear police sirens and get up. I see officers walking towards my car, and I get out.
"Hello, we heard about a report of a gunshot at this location. Which house did you hear the gunshot in, ma'am?"
"Th-that one." I say pointing the house I heard the bang in.
"Alright, I would advise you get in your car and remain calm, you said you think your brother and his girlfriend are in that house?" He questions.
"Yes, they've been gone for about a day now and nobody knew where they were."
"Alright, thank you. We're going to go in there, please stay in your car no matter what happens." He says, looking me in the eyes. "You got that?"
"Y-yes" I studder, staring at some point in the distance and sitting back in my car. In case what happens? Is Claudia dead? Is Finneas dead? What if he was killed because he called me? What if I lose him?
I call my mom, and tell her to come to Bluemont Road before hanging up. I'll explain when she gets here.
"Billie!" My mom says while giving me a hug. "What's going on?"
"Finneas called me right after you left and told me he was in a house on Bluemont Road and that he needed my help, so I came here and I heard a gunshot from a house and now the police are here looking for him and Claudia." I say, starting to cry.
"Oh my god." My mom says, sitting in my car and putting her head in her hands.
"Somebody call an ambulance!" I hear and officer from inside the house yell.
Why do they need an ambulance?
I see a police officer walk out of the house with a man in handcuffs. That must be the person who took Claudia and Finneas.
At this point my mom is sobbing into her hands and talking under her breath, so I just give her a big hug and tell her it'll be alright, gang the police will handle everything.
An officer approaches my car, knocking on my window. I roll down my window to talk to him.
"Hello, your brother was in that building, thank you for calling us. Unfortunately nobody can ride with him in the ambulance as it has no extra seating, and we will be at Clearview Hospital with him." He states.
"Is he okay? And what do you mean Finneas? What about Claudia? Did you find her?"
"No, but we found something else that we are going to investigate, it will be very vital in finding her." He says with a soft look.
"What is Finneas' condition? Is he going to make it?" My mom says, looking up from her hands.
"He's in critical condition. There is a possibility he won't survive, but he'll be in good hands."
"WHAT!!?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERES A CHANCE HE WONT MAKE IT!?!!?!?!" My mom screams, crying as the officer walks away and steps into his car.

I think we all love a poorly written cliffhanger 🤭
I'm so sorry that this chapter took so long to write, I don't have much motivation and ideas would be greatly appreciated.
What do you think will happen to Finneas? Comment cause I don't know what'll happen either 😎
