Family Matters

Scared

Emily woke up to Jack tapping her arm.

"Mommy" - Jack was tapping her worried.

"Hey Jack" - Emily said sleeply.

"Where is Declan?" - Jack asked in a worried tone.

Emily shot up in bed "What do you mean Jack??? Did you check his room".

"Yes he wasn't there" - Jack said sadly.

Emily shook Aaron to wake up "Babe....Babe.....Wake up."

Aaron woke up "What's wrong?"

"Jack says he can't find Declan" - Emily said almost in tears.

"Why don't we get up and look around the house." - Aaron said he wrapped his arms around Emily.

"Everything is going to be okay" - Aaron assured his wife.

"You don't know that, Doyle is still looking for him" - Emily said breaking down.

"Come on sweetheart let's check the house" - Aaron told her.

They checked all around the house but Declan was no where to be found.

"Where the hell could he have gone?" - Emily whispered.

"I don't know" - Aaron said.

"I wasn't asking you" - Emily screamed

"You need to stay calm" - Aaron said.

"Aaron how could you say be calm.... My child is missing" - Emily screamed

Jack ran over to Emily and gave her a hug.

"It's okay mommy... I love you" - Jack said.

"I love you too baby" - Emily said to Jack giving him a kiss on his cheek.

With Declan.....

"Where am I?" - The 4 year old asked

"Your in your new home" - Said Chloe Donaghy.

"Who are you??? I want my mom". - Declan screamed also in tears.

"I am your mum" - Said Chole coming closer to Declan.

"No you're not" - Said confused crying Declan .

"I'm your biological mum" - Said Chole.

With Emily, Aaron, and Jack.....

"He probably just got scared because of the storm and didn't know what to do so he went out of his window so he has to be close by" - said Aaron.

"Did you set the alarm last night?" - Emily asked.

"Yes I did" - Aaron said.

"Then how the fuck did he get out without the alarm going off?" - Emily asked

"I don't know... Stop talking like that" - Aaron said

"Aaron I will stop talking like this when we find my son" -Emily said

Aaron whispers "He's not even your child"

"Excuse me.... How could you say that'' - Emily screamed in tears and went to their bedroom

"Jack buddy go to your room please" - Aaron said.

"Yes daddy" - Jack said while going to his room.

"Emily... baby.. open the door.." - Aaron said.

Emily opened the door " What?"

"I'm sorry I said that.. I shouldn't have said that" - Aaron said.

"How could you say that?? Dammit none of these children are my kids... But I treat them like they are" - Emily said.
