The next day Skylar didn't have to go to set or an audition so he immediately started with his day off routine. After rolling out of bed at 10, he checked his e-mails to see if his manager had sent him anything important before making himself an omelet for breakfast before heading to the gym.

When he opened the door, Skylar found an envelope taped to his door with his name typed on it with block letters. The brunette frowned as he took the envelope off the door and pulled a letter out with similar block letters. "You had to go to the police, didn't you? Don't do that again or I'll have to take my anger out on your girlfriend. Do as I say and you'll get her back safe and sound, disobey and things won't go smoothly. Don't screw this up."

Skylar's first instinct was to call the police to turn the letter in as a piece of evidence and have it dusted for finger prints in hopes that whoever sent it had made a mistake and not worn gloves.

Then he remembered what the note had said. There was no way for Skylar to know if the note was from whoever had kidnapped Anna or if it was just someone messing with him, but doing anything that could potentially hurt Anna wasn't a risk he was willing to take. Unsure of what to do, Skylar stuffed the note in his bag and continued his journey to the gym to try to come up with a plan.

All while he was on the treadmill, Skylar's mind kept wandering back to the note and what he was going to d. Eventually, it became clear that this was too big for him to handle on his own. Grabbing his phone from the holder on the machine, Skylar typed a quick message before sending it to the two people he trusted most in this situation.

When he got home, Skylar was relieved to see Brittany and Kendrick's cars outside of his apartment. The blonde and brunette got out of their cars when they saw Skylar pull into the driveway. "Hey, thanks so much for meeting me," he said gratefully.

"It was no trouble, really," Brittany said in her usual, chipper tone.

"Yeah, what's going on? Your text said that it was urgent." Kendrick asked, concern clear in her voice.

"Let's get inside and I'll explain," Skylar said, looking around to see if he could see whoever had obviously been spying on him.

When they were all inside, Skylar offered his guests something to drink, which they both declined. "So I'm not sure if you've heard, they're trying to keep it quiet, but Anna was kidnapped at the airport."

He paused to allow what he had said to sink in with the blonde and brunette. Both girls' faces immediately changed to one of unadulterated shock.

"How did this happen?" Kendrick asked furiously. "They have TSA agents everywhere that can't stop someone from kidnapping a woman in broad daylight? This is unacceptable! Our tax dollars, HER tax dollars are paying for them to be on every corner of LAX and they let her down like that!"

"Hey, I'm as angry as you are and I've already been in contact with the police and told them everything I know. I can only hope it's enough to help find her." Skylar said with pain evident in his voice.

"If the police are on the case, why are we here?" Brittany asked in confusion.

"I need your advice on something. I got this note on my door this morning and I just don't know what to do about it," Skylar said nervously as he grabbed the note out of his bag and handed it to the blonde and brunette to read. "So what do you guys think?" he asked when both sets of blue eyes were looking up at him.

"I think we're all in agreement that Anna's safety is our number one priority, right?" Brittany asked, receiving nods from both Kendrick and Skylar. "I think we have to leave it for right now. Right now, going to the police is a no-win situation. If you go and this person is serious, they could get angry and hurt Anna. If this person is just messing with you, it could hurt the real investigation. I say you wait a week and see if you're contacted again."

Skylar paused for a moment as he considered what the blonde had said to him. On the surface, it made sense, but he couldn't help but worry about what would happen if this person was lying. Seeing no alternative, he nodded his head in agreement with Brittany's plan.

Before he could, Kendrick was spouting off Skylar's concerns. "What if we follow this nut job's orders to the letter and Anna still ends up hurt?"

"Based on this note, I don't think that's going to happen. It seems like this person isn't interested in hurting her and is willing to give her back if we cooperate. And if we don't hear anything in a week, we'll go to the police and report this person for stalking and harassment."

Skylar thought it over for a moment before deciding that the blonde was right. "Brittany, I think you're right. We should wait and see." Before Kendrick could object, he continued. "If this person doesn't have Anna, they might have an idea of who does. So far, the only people I know who are even aware that Anna is missing besides the police are her parents, sister, myself, you guys, and possibly Michael." The blonde and brunette shot him a confused look. "He was their primary suspect, so I'm guessing he got a little suspicious when he was being questioned about the last time he saw her."

"I still don't trust that guy," Kendrick said. "I only met him a couple of times, but he always gave me a bad vibe."

"Me too." Brittany said as she nodded in agreement.

"I'm in agreement with you guys, but the police have dropped him as a suspect for now and looking into tracking down the trench coat guy. I think we just have to wait and see what comes of that just lay low until then. Can we all agree to that?"

Brittany immediately nodded in agreement. Kendrick was giving a stony look. "I know you're not enthused about laying low, but we've already agreed that it's our best option. Can you give us your word that you won't do anything until then?" Skylar asked.

The brunette continued to stare him down for a few more seconds before agreeing. "Fine, but you're going first thing in the morning or I do it for you."

"Ok, I promise. Right when I wake up next Tuesday, I'll go to the police department before I do anything else." Kendrick nodded in satisfaction. "Good. Thank you both for coming over, it was a lot of help." Skylar said gratefully as he walked the girls to the door and gave them each a hug before they left.

"It was no trouble, we want to see Anna get home safe and sound too. Thank you for trusting us enough to fill us in on what's going on," Brittany said as Skylar hugged her.

"Yeah, keep us posted on any developments," Kendrick said before leaving.

"Of course. As soon as I hear anything, I'll text you guys."

"And Skylar?" Kendrick asked before getting in her car, "Stay safe."

"Skylar did his best to hide the surprise on his face at the request before promising he would and watching Kendrick drive off into the distance.
