Max placed the floor of the kitchen.
"Where could he be?" he kept questioning. "My son, my only son where could he be?" Niles came in the door.
"No luck sir," he shook his head "I…" Max sighed.
"What if he's…" the phone rang making both of them jump. It was CC telling him that she was going to be late.
"No worries, CC. I have to find my son."
"What?" CC shouted through the phone.
"His son's missing woman, don't you listen." Niles commented as he was on the other line. Max didn't care this time that he was. He was actually grateful.
"Maybe he's at Sarah's parents house." She suggested.
"Sarah's parents house? Why would he be there?" Max questioned her. Niles knew exactly where B went. The tree house. Niles silently snapped his fingers. Why didn't I think of that? That's the one place that Max doesn't know that I showed B. Now he will know all of our hiding places.
"Sir, I didn't think to go over there. I didn't even call them. I mean…You guys weren't that close."
"Do you think he went there?"
"Anything's possible sir."
"We have to get there."
After getting the news of where his son could be, Max and Niles head to Sarah's parent's house. The drive in the limo seemed to take an extra long time.
"What's he doing here?" asked Max as they pulled down long driveway of Sarah's parent's property.
"My guess he's hiding from…" Niles started then saw Max's look. The one that told him that he better no say him.
"Why?" Max whined.
"Well,"
"I'm just glade he's." Max thought of all the things that could have happened to his son. "That he's…" Max blinked. "..Safe." Max had to calm himself as they reached a normal two-story house.
Max was, greeted by his mother-in-law. "Maxwell," she hugged him. "Don't be mad at him." Max swallowed so B is here.
"Where is he?"
"He's with his grandfather in the tree house."
"He's where?"
"In the old tree house in the back. The one that Sarah's father built for you guys to play in. That was right after her roommate left her. Remember, he didn't want boys in the house so he built a tree house were the three of you." she hugged Niles. "Could get out of the summer heat."
"Oh yeah," Max smiled remembering everything that went on in there. Some things, that were secret as well.
"Our tea parties and G. I. Joe battles in the sand." Niles commented remembering as well.
"Those were the days Niles."
"They sure were sir." All three of them made their way to the tree house.
"I haven't been up here since Sarah and I…."
"Got engaged." Niles finished his sentence for him just in case he rambled on too much. Max shook his head. He almost told the whole story. Well, Niles knew cause he was there but Sarah's parents didn't know and he didn't want his son to either. Max could hear his son's voice talking. "Son," Max shouted, as he climbed the ladder.
"Dad?" B stepped out on to the porch.
"Son," he grabbed him in a hug. Don't get mad with him. Don't get mad with. "Don't ever…I mean ever do that again." He squeezed his son. Tears fell from his eyes. "I thought when the phone rang, that it was going to be the police telling me they found…." he swallowed. "a de…"
"You dead." Niles finished for him. Max glared over at Niles, How does he do that? Read people's minds?
"I thought I might lose you." Max sniffed.
"I'm…" B looked up at his dad. "I'm….sorry." B lead Max inside the tree house.
