Stef
Stef opened her eyes slowly, letting them adjust to the light she laid still for a few seconds. Stef expected to roll over and see Lena laying there. However she quickly realized she wasn't in her bed, or with Lena. She felt a searing pain shoot through her shoulder,she quickly moved her arm, only to realize it was handcuffed behind her back. Stef tried her hardest to remember what happened. She closed her eyes and thought, trying to remember anything. She opened them with no such luck. Stef looked around the room scanning for anything she could use to remember. All she could see was one window covered with curtains, a door next to her, a mattress in the corner and a small cup of water. The room was probably 10 feet wide at best. Stef needed to look out the window, see where she was. She tried to stand, however her legs quickly locked and she fell. Stef grunted in pain and laid on the ground for a few seconds to calm down. Suddenly she heard footsteps coming up to the door, stef tried her hardest to move away from the door, but she was too weak to move. The door swung open, revealing a man who she thought she would never see again.
Lena
Lena sat in the kitchen, cleaning up what was left of dinner, frustrated she looked down at her phone to see if Stef had responded to any of her texts. Lena had known this new job was going to be hard on the family and Stef, but she never thought it would take up so much time. Lena decided to call Stef again, before she could finish typing in Stef's number, a knock at the door pulled her away. Lena hopped up and walked to the door, she saw mike there and expected to see Stef somewhere nearby. Lena opened the door
"Hey Mike, where's Stef?"
"Oh, I thought she was here, she told me she needed to go check up on something and would be on her way home..She left her phone at the office" said Mike handing the phone to Lena
Lena's mind immediately went to the worst possible scenarios, Stef was dead, her mind quickly snapped out of thought and back to mike.
"Oh, ok. She may be stuck in traffic right?" Lena said
"for 4 hours, I doubt it" Mike responded
"wait, she left work 4 hours go?" said Lena, the worry in her voice increasing.
"she left at 4"
Lena looked at her watch, 8:45.
"Shit" Lena said, Lena never normally swore. But she didn't know what else to say.
Callie
Callie looked down the dark street, she knew if Stef or Lena knew where she was she would be dead. Callie took a deep breath and crossed the street to the tiny red house. She heard her old foster dad had gotten out of jail. She needed to see for herself. Callie's plan was to peek in the windows, not to go inside. Callie approached the house and sunk around to the back, she didn't see anyone in the house, but all the lights were on. Callie heard a creak echo from the house and ducked behind a bush. She still had a clear view of the house. Then Callie saw him, her old foster dad. Callie just watched as he paced around the living room, talking to himself. She immediately recognized this behavior as he would do this after he beat Jude or Callie and was afraid they would get in trouble. Callie looked down at her phone and saw a text from Lena
Time to come home honey, I can pick you up if you need.
Callie had told Lena she was at Daphines, she thought of what to say.
ok, i need to help Daphine clean up a bit more then i'll catch the bus home.
Ok, please be home quickly.
Callie put her phone back in he pocket and look up to see something, there was someone rapped up in a bedsheets on the floor. Callie could see a tiny person, their hands tied behind their back. Callie stood up to get a better look. She then saw something horrifying, short curly blonde hair covered in blood coming out of the sheet.
Stef.
