I couldn't sleep that night, Bryan was missing, I kept trying his number but it never went through. Alex called his office at Boston and they said he had already left yesterday, he suggests we wait till tomorrow and if he isn't back we will go make a report.

How on earth did he get missing?
Did Williams find him?

The thought of Williams taking Bryan made me so scared, I wanted to dress up and go in search of him myself but I knew the guards wouldn't even let me leave the house

I lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, thinking  as I slowly doze off..

**************

A sound woke me up, it was dawn and still a bit dark, something passed before me, a shadow, tall and huge. someone was in my room, I couldn't see the face but the shadow was getting closer and closer.

I jerked up quickly, searching for the light switch behind the bed and screaming at the same time.

"Hey, hey" a voice said , it was a familiar voice

"Bryan?" I switched on the light

"Yes baby it's me, did I wake you?"

He looked rough, his white shirt was completely stained and slightly torn, his hair all over the place, his face had dark stains on it too.

He is back!

Relieve rushed over me as I ran to give him a hug
"You scared me to death!! what happened to you? I have been trying to reach you"
He winced as I pull back "are you in pain?"

"Not really, it's nothing serious, I need to sit down first" I took him to sit on the couch at the end of the bedroom before sitting across him.

"Do you need anything? Should I get you water?" I stood up.

"No" he breathed, holding my hand "I just missed you so much, I'm sorry I didn't keep my promise of getting back sooner"

"Don't say that, we heard the helicopter got missing"

He nods "on my way back, it crashed at a remote area"

"Oh my God Bryan! Are you okay? Let's go the hospital"

"No babe am fine, it wasn't so serious, trust me" he stood "I will just go shower and rest a bit"

"Should I go with you?"

"Go back to bed love, I just wanted to check on you, I didn't mean to wake you up"

I wanted to reply him but I started feeling nauseous again, I swallowed hard trying my best not to barf in front of him, but it didn't work it just made it worst and I ran to my bathroom. He followed me immediately, pulling my hair back and holding it up as I vomited into the sink. I quickly washed it away and washed my face, slightly embarrassed for letting him see me this way.

"Anne! You are sick!" He raised his voice

"Not really, am sure it just a minor flu or something"

"Why didn't you tell Alex or one of the guards to take you to a pharmacy or at least get you a drug?"

"I didn't know it will continue, am fine now the sick feeling is gone" the nausea comes and goes

It was obvious he didn't believe me, he led me to the bed and tucked me in "I will tell Alex to get you some drugs, now sleep let me go shower, I will be back"

"No you should rest, am fine, seriously" but he just nod and left the room.

By the time I woke up again the sun was up, I turned to see Bryan staring at me from where he stood, resting on the wall, hands folded on his chest, he looked fresh, his green top matched with the shorts he wore, his hair neatly combed and styled.
