Chapter Fourteen: In a Flash

Austin didn't mind Jake's job. It brought in a lot of money and as long as he was being as safe as possible, Austin didn't really say anything.

"Don't forget about that competition this Saturday." Jake reminded her with a smile.

"It's on the calender." She smiled. "I'm a little nervous."

"Why?" Jake asked popping a couple grapes into his mouth.

"Because, I've never been to a BMX competition before, and you doing flips on a bike's gonna give me a heart attack."

"Don't worry." He assured her. "I know what I'm doing, I've been practicing for months."

"I know, I know." Austin kissed him. "I'll pick Beau up from Daycare if you drop him off?"

"Okay." Jake said. "Have a good day!"

"You too, be safe!" She yelled as she was leaving.

GENERALHOSPITAL...

Austin opened the daycare door hearing a ding and then saw a blonde haird lady behind the bright yellow desk. Austin hadn't recognized her before, she guessed she was new.

"Hi, I'm here to pick up Beau." Austin said.

"Okay." The girl smiled, pulling out a long sign out sheet.

"Oh." She smiled. "It looks like Beau's dad already came and got him."

"Um, okay." Austin said, a little confused. "Jake and I must have got our wires crossed."

"Jake?" The lady looked at the sheet again. "It says Liam Spencer on the sign out sheet."

Austin's eyes went wide. "Liam got him, when, how long ago?"

"Um, about an hour ago." she said. "Is there a problem?"

Austin didn't even answer, she just rushed out the door, fumbling in her purse for her phone.

She dialed his number. "Jake, has Liam called you?"

"What, no?"

"He took Beau from daycare!" Austin got in her car.

"What?" Jake yelled. "When?"

"About an hour ago, maybe he took him to the house."

"I'll meet you there."

Austin hung up the phone and drove like a crazy person.

She flew down the long driveway and saw a black SUV parked. Austin looked and didn't see Jake's Truck, she must have beaten him there.

She put the car in park and got out seeing Liam standing beside the SUV with Beau in his arms.

Austin ran over to him and grabbed Beau from him. "Hi, baby. Are you okay?" She looked at him, he looked fine, but she was still pissed.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" She yelled.

"Nothing, just picking my son up from daycare."

"How dare you, pulling a stunt like this after you've been gone for almost a year."

Austin turned her head hearing Jake's truck speeding down then driveway and then seeing him stop right behind her car.

"Austin!" He ran to them. "Is he okay?"

Jake ran his hand over Beau's back.

"From what I can tell." Austin hugged Beau.

"You know I would never hurt him." Liam rolled his eyes. "I just wanted to see him."

"Austin, take Beau inside." Jake said.

"Jake." Austin started to say.

"Austin, go inside!" He raised his voice, still looking at Liam.

Hearing the door close behinnd her, Jake grabbed Liam by his shirt and pushed him up against the SUV.

"Get off me!" Liam yelled, but Jake didn't budge and Liam couldn't move him.

"Don't you EVER do that again!" Jake yelled.

"He's my kid, I can do whatever I want."

Jake tightened his grip. "No, he's not and no you can't. Your a stranger, Liam. I'm his dad, I'm the one who tells him stories and give him hugs and kisses everyday, not you!"

"He'll never be yours, Jake!" Liam smiled seeing Austin walk back outside. "You can screw his mother all you want, but Beau is my son."

"Jake, let him go, it's not worth it." Austin said.

Jake realesed Liam from his grasp.

"And you!" Liam looked at Austin. "I expected you to run back to Clay, but my brother! Your a slut, Austin!"

Jake lunged at Liam again, this time grabbing him by his neck. "Do you wanna leave here on a stretcher?"

Liam struggled to breath.

"This is what's gonna happen." Jake told him. "Your gonna get in your car and leave, I never want to see your face around here again. And if you don't, I swear to God, Liam I'll put you in the hospital."

Jake let go and Liam started coughing.

"You have five minutes to get off my property before I call the cops." Jake said and then watched as Liam got in his car and left.

Jake turned to Austin who had a worried look on her face.

"You okay?" Jake asked.

She nodded. "Yeah, I guess."

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lost my temper like that." Jake said.

"It's okay, you were just worried about Beau." She gave him a little smile. "I'm glad Beau has you as a dad, Jake."

He smiled. "Me too."
