Brooke woke up in the morning and yelled, "Dear sister time to wake up" Brooke walked into Riley's room except she wasn't there. "Riley, Riles" Brooke thought maybe she went over to Nathan's house. Brooke went to school and spotted Nathan and Peyton. "Nathan where is my sister?"

Nathan puzzled, "How should I know?"

Brooke replied, "She's your girlfriend?"

Nathan remarked, "She's your sister."

Brooke spoke, "She wasn't at home and now she's not with you…"

Peyton said, "Brooke don't worry I bet she just went for a jog."

Nathan responded, "Yeah she's an exercise freak she's even worse than me."

Brooke stated, "Every other time she's left a note it's just not like her."

Nathan began to puzzle, "Maybe Brooke is right?"

Peyton replied, "Call her at lunch I am positive nothing is wrong."

Later at lunch Brooke joined the lunch table Nathan asked, "So?"

Brooke answered, "She's not answering the house phone."

Nathan added, "She hasn't answered her cell phone either."

Peyton stated, "That doesn't mean anything is wrong."

Lucas and Jake walked up and Lucas asked, "What's wrong?"

Brooke remarked, "Riley is missing."

Jake puzzled, "What?"

Peyton responded, "Just because she is not answering doesn't mean she is missing."

Lucas spoke, "Peyton is right you shouldn't worry I bet she's just in Chapel Hill and she could've forgotten her cell." Lucas sat down next to Brooke and rubbed her shoulders "Just relax babe "Lucas glanced at Nathan "You too little brother."

Nathan looked surprised at Lucas he called him his little brother. That was a first although they have had a lot of firsts since Riley came into the picture.

Later on that Day Brooke returned home and no Riley even worse her suit cases were gone along with all her belongings. Brooke went to the café where Lucas, Peyton, and Jake were. They all looked at her as she came inside "She's gone…her bags and belongings are…she left and I don't know why" Brooke stated.

Lucas came over and held Brooke in his arms as he tried to comfort her. Lucas wondered why Angie upped and left that just didn't seem like her.

Jake pondered the same thing Lucas was thinking, but Jake knew something was wrong for Riley to leave the way she did.

Justin and Haley walked in and Haley exclaimed, "The rock star returns."

Justin smirked, "One week in a studio and it all goes to her head."

Haley looked around at everyone's expressions and questioned, "What's going on? What's wrong?"

Just then Nathan entered the café and Brooke answered, "My sister is gone she just took off and I don't know why."

Nathan asked, "How do you know she's really gone?"

Brooke responded, her suitcases and all her belongings are gone."

Nathan's heart fell and though how could she just leave?

Justin glanced over at Jake and motioned for him to come outside. Once outside Justin puzzled, "Did you know about this?"

Jake replied, "No which worries me because I know something has to be really wrong for her to run away."

Riley arrived back to New York City she walked into her loft, set her things down, and started crying.
