In Broad Daylight [h.s.]

Chapter One:

It had been a few months since their youngest daughter, Darcy, was born and neither parent could be happier, well save the lack of sleep that she was causing at least.

Peyton and Elizabeth we're excited for her to grow up so she could play with them and continuously asked how long it was going to take.

Harry was out doing some promos and the twins were in school which left Aria home to take care of little Darcy.

Months of not sleeping had taken their toll and she was beyond exhausted. After she set her little baby girl down for a nap she decided to take one herself, the baby monitor would wake her when Darcy awoke.

Hours later Aria awoke refreshed and curious as to how Darcy had slept so long without waking. Normally, she woke up around every three or four hours.

She had fallen asleep with the television on and the news was now streaming. Aria was about to turn the television off when a story caught her eye.

Simultaneous jail breaks across the world: Two inmates in different continents escape at the same time

She turned the volume up slightly to hear the rest of what the lady had to say about the story.

"An odd story to say the least but it isn't very surprising. Two inmates, Cynthia Rolands and Enrique Reynolds that had been incarcerated for crimes against the very same person had gotten in contact with one another and somehow planned a dual escape. The two inmates are still on the lose, of seen please report to-"

Aria ran out of the room before she could hear any more. They were out and there was no way to tell where they were or how long they had been out for sure based on when the news story was aired.

Harry and the twins wouldn't be home for another couple of hours and Aria was already beginning to panic. She practically flung the door open to the nursery and was relieved when Darcy made tiny little whining noises at the sound.

"Oh thank god! Mummy's so sorry sweetie, it's okay shhh baby girl." Aria cooed as she rocked Darcy in her arms.

When Harry came home with the girls Aria nearly burst into tears. She couldn't quite explain it but she had a terrible feeling that Cynthia and Enrique would do something to their children.

"Is everything alright baby?" Harry asked the moment he had seen her expression, concern blanketing his features.

"Girls, could you go to the living room and do your homework please? Mummy and Daddy need to talk for a little while."

Peyton and Elizabeth hugged her tightly before complying, "Yes Mummy!"

Harry waited until the two were out of earshot to ask, "Aria, what happened?"

She broke down and welcomed his warm embrace as she cried into his shoulder.

"Cynthia and Enrique got out. I feel like they're going to t-take or hurt one of our girls. H-Harry I don't want to lose them, or you."

"Oh...Baby everything will be okay. You know how much security this place has just because of the fans, and I certainly won't let anything happen to our little girls. You know that more than anyone."

While they were having their moment Elizabeth walked in and stood there silently until she couldn't handle it anymore.

"Mummy, Darcy is crying. We tried to play with her and she still didn't stop."

Aria wiped her eyes and laughed at how cute her daughter was, "Okay sweetie, Mummy will get her in one second. Thank you for helping Elizabeth."

"You're welcome Mummy!" Elizabeth hugged her legs tightly before running back into the living room to join her sister.
