*The car*

My hand brushed Brad's as we drove to the location my boys and parents were being held captive. My was racing along with my head spinning, what were we going to do when we get there.

Brad cleared his throat to catch my attention.
"Everything is going to be fine, I know how to handle this guy," he said trying to reassure me but to no success. Sighing, I gave Brad a gentle smile and refocused my eyes on the road with him doing the exact same.

1.30hrs

The drive was getting to awkward. We hadn't spoken in ages. I decided the best thing was to try and talk. "So, what's the plan?," Brad's eyes never leave the road.
"I'm not sure," he replied.
"You can stay in the car, I'll go and get them back," he continued.
'He can't be serious' I thought. 'Surely I wasn't just going to sit in the car and play the waiting game'!!!
"Are you serious," my voice raises slightly.
"You May know how to deal with the guy but that doesn't mean he'll play nice, we have to work together," I yell. Brad's knuckles whiten as his fists tighten around the wheel.
"I CAN'T LOSE YOU TOO!," he screams, I jump at his sharp tone. He sighs, his face softening.
"I'm sorry, I just can't lose you as well as the boys. I couldn't live with myself if something happened to my family," he explains. A small smile appears on my face at the thought of him saying 'my family'. He'd never said that before, it made my wild heart warm.

"Take a left, you are now at your chosen destination," the GPS says. Brad and I look at each other as he parks the car.
"Okay wait here I'll be back in a while," Brad reaches for the car door as I reach for his shoulder. He turns to face me again.
"If you won't let me come with you at least let me help from the outside," I plead, I refuse to sit by and wait. He takes a deep breathe and nods.
"Okay, wait for me at the entrance, go into the shadows so no one can see you! If something goes wrong call the police," he hands me his phone.
"But nothing will happen right?," I ask, I couldn't hide the concern.
"Yeah yeah but just in case," he says. We both step out of the car, making our way to the warehouse.

"Okay, wait here," he gently pushes me into the corner.
"Whatever happens do not come out, don't come in and don't make any noise," his voice serious.

I nod

He disappears into the darkness, no longer in sight.

*15 mins*

The longer he made me wait the more worries I was becoming. What's taking him so long?

*Voices in the background*

My body jolts up, it must be Brad with the boys and my parents. My heart races with excitement until..
