Delilah's POV

"Jerome is missing," Mitch said as he came through the door.

My heart felt like it stopped and everything was frozen when he said those three words. "What do you mean he's gone?" Daniella asks him and gets up from the couch and walks towards Mitch, while I stay on the couch frozen in my seat.

"I-I-I his shoes and coat aren't their which he always takes off when he get to our house," Mitch says and rubs his face with his hands. "His phones not on the counter and he's just not full on there." he continues and Dani sighs runs her fingers through her hair.

"T-that doesn't mean he wasn't there, was anything else weird?" she asks him.

Mitch stays quiet for a minute then suddenly starts talking. "There was a broken mirror!" he exclaims.

"There is a mirror by or door and it was broken when I looked at it and there was blood on it... it might be Jerome's..." he adds and goes quiet again.

"Shit!" I yell and get up from the couch and hit the wall with my fist, leaving a stinging sensation course though my hand.

"What is it Lilah," Dani says and I lean against the wall with my face on my arms supporting me up.

"I told him I hated him Dani, he probably thinks I don't care about him. Fuck, I'm the reason he's gone Dani!" I yell and hit the wall again making another pump of pain go through it again.

"Lilah it's not your fault, it whatever happened to Jerome's fault.." Daniella says and comes up behind me and puts one of her hands on my shoulder.

But I push it away and sit down against the wall and wrap my arms around my legs.

Dani frowns slightly.

"Just know, we are going to find him. Nothing hard ever stopped us from finding any of us before." she says.

"Well there was TC, our dad, hidden locations that took singing, a lot of things actually." I say sarcastically and she cracks a small grin my way.

In my peripheral, I see Mitch go into the kitchen and then comes back out with a container of Nutella and two of peanut butter and three spoons and hands me the Nutella and a spoon which I take and Daniella one of the tubs of peanut butter with a spoon.

He soon joins us by the wall sitting down with his own jar and spoon and we all sit there, eating our snacks of things put on bread and sit in silence thinking of anything.

Mitch's eyes suddenly widen and looks at us. "You guys, I think I know what happened to Jerome." he says and by the tone in his voice I don't like.

"Well, what happened!" Dani yells and I cover my ear and she blushes shyly at her outburst. "I remembered, when I was looking for his phone on the counter, something else was laying there instead.

"What was it." I ask quietly, licking the Nutella clean off my spoon.

Mitch looks at me with fear and worry in his eyes and says, "It was headphones, Ty's headphones to be exact."
