Disclaimer: I don't own anyone but Loryn Halliwell and her family.

It had been a normal day when my parents and I were visiting my sisters and their kids. It turned completely disastrous when I suddenly noticed one of my nephews missing. I looked around at the park we were having a family picnic at in case he ran off with some friends to play with but didn't see him. I looked at the swings, the slides, the monkey bars and even the jungle gym. That's when the panic set in. My sisters noticed the panic on my face as I quickly stood up.

"Loryn? What's wrong?"

"Riley's gone."

"Wait what? He was just-" Everyone looked around and saw he was gone from the area. Our parents stayed with the younger kids as the rest of us ran around looking for Riley, my nephew. When I reached the parking lot I saw stopped in my tracks. There, just 5 cars away from our vans was Riley's hat.

"OMG. No. Riley." I yelled out Riley's name as I ran to his hat. I fumbled as I took out my cell and called both my sisters who were with their husbands. They raced across the park to the lot as I picked up his hat. Tears brimmed my eyes I held up Riley's hat to show them as they got closer. Myles, my older sister's husband, took out his cell phone and called 9-1-1 to report a kidnapping. We all stayed in the spot until Peter, my other sister's husband, went back to our parents to inform them what was going on. Soon the cops arrived as well as an unmarked police car. We all talked to the cops giving our statements then I reluctantly gave the hat to one of the detectives as my sister, Riley's mom, gave the other a picture of Riley. My mind was going a mile a minute that once the detective put Riley's hat in a bag I fainted dead way. When I woke I was lying on a bed in a hospital room. I looked around and saw my mom. "What happened?"

"You're being treated for shock. We all were."

"Any news on Riley?"

"Not yet."

"How long has it been?"

"5 hours."

"If I'm being treated for shock then why isn't anyone else in here on a bed?"

"Yours was triggered by your iron deficiency. That's the 2nd blood bag they've given you already." I sighed as I rubbed my face. I held my knees to my chest just as one of the detectives from before came in. He asked me some questions about Riley then when he was satisfied he left. A nurse soon came in with a food tray.

"Go home mom. I'm fine."

"I'm not leaving you."

"I'm a big girl mom. I think I can handle being by myself."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Now go."

"Alright. Call if you need anything."

"Will do mom." Mom left as I drank the juice. Another nurse came in to check my vitals and she noticed the untouched food.

"Not hungry?"

"Not with what's going on. Something like this deserves a good tub of ice cream and a really funny movie to keep the mind occupied on something else."

"I think I can help on the movie part but the ice cream...I don't know."

"Oh come on. No one has to know." The nurse cracked a smiled and nodded.

"All right. You got me." An hour and half later the nurse came back with 2 comedies, Bridesmaids and Friends With Kids, and a concealed tub of caramel praline ice cream with 2 spoons. After shutting the blinds and the door Anna, the nurse propped up her laptop on the tray table then started Bridesmaids as we dug into the ice cream. We were laughing hysterically and practically slapping our knees at the comedy. It was just the thing I needed. Just as we about to start Friends With Kids a knock sounded at the door. Anna quickly hid the ice cream then answered the door after she opened the blinds. *Cute guys. Really cute guys.* Anna mouthed towards me. I smiled as I shook my head. Sure enough 2 majorly hot guys, who wore suits, stood in the doorway.

"Is this a bad time to speak to Miss Halliwell?"

"Not at all. We were just watching some movies. I'm going to go get us some drinks what do you want Loryn?"

"Diet, regular, root beer...surprise me." Anna smiled as she chuckled. She left the room leaving me with the guys. She looked over their shoulders and mouthed *Cute butts*. I couldn't help but laugh at this as Anna scurried off. "Sorry. What can I do for you detectives?"

"I'm Agent Blark and this is my partner Agent Ronners. What can you tell us about what happened in the park today?" The shorter of the men asked as they put away what I knew to be fake badges.

"You should know if you've read my witness statement. But if you really want to know...it was just supposed to be a normal family outing in the park after my nephew played his hockey game this morning. His team won by the way. Anyways. Everything was fine until I noticed he was missing."

"What alerted you to the fact that your nephew was missing?"

"Call it women's instinct or whatever but something told me that something was wrong. I looked around at all of us and noticed he was missing. I didn't want to alert my family about it just yet so I looked around the park from where I was sitting thinking maybe he went off with some friends to play. He wasn't anywhere. I looked towards the playground and didn't see him."

"After which was it that you alerted your family that your nephew was missing?"

"After I checked the playground. I quickly stood and that's when they all noticed that I was panicked."

"And then you all started looking for your nephew."

"Yes. But my parents didn't help."

"Why not? I think any grandparent would want to search for their missing grandchild."

"Someone had to stay and watch the younger kids. So then we all ran around asking if anyone had seen Riley. No one had. I was at the end of my line."

"What made you think to check the parking lot?"

"I thought maybe he might've gone to one of the vans for something and was taking awhile."

"And that's when you saw the hat."

"It was right there. Laying in an empty spot just 5 spots away from the vans. I just froze. I didn't want to believe it."

"How did you know it was his? It could've been another kid's."

"No. It was Riley's. I got the hat for him as a birthday gift. It was a Marlies' hockey hat with the team's signatures."

"How'd you get the team to sign it?"

Marlies is an actual Toronto hockey team.
