Never Cross two upset mothers...
...Especially Sam Puckett and Freddie Bensons together!
Mel and Carly were lying in the back of the bus dozing slightly. They were woken by the sound of a car braking sharply causing a loud squeal. Mel sat up and looked out the window to see her mother climbing out of her car. She jumped up and got out of the bus.
"MOM!" she ran and held her mom. She looked worried and scared.
"Oh Mel... What's going on?"
"They can't go searching until sun up it's too dangerous...and Freddie still hasn't come back..." she sobbed into her mother's jumper. She stayed there until Spencer came over.
"Hi Mrs. Puckett..."
"Hi Spencer...Mel said they can't search..." she voice sounded distant, even to herself. From the look on her face Spencer was amazed she had gotten there in one piece.
"Yea...It's too dangerous...We're just hoping that Freddie was able to find her...His bag is missing along with his first aid kit and Sam's inhaler...He'll know what to do...Don't worry"
"Has Freddie's mom been told?" just as she finished speaking another car pulled up and a very upset Mrs. Benson stepped out.
"Spencer...Spencer did you find them?" she asked.
"No, Marissa, they can't search until sun up it's too dangerous..." the rest of his sentence was drowned out by an angry roar from Marissa Benson.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN SUN UP...THAT'S ANOTHER 5 HOURS...ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN TO HIM"
"Please Marissa, come on sit down...Freddie's a tough guy...He'll be fine..."Spencer led her over to the area where the officer was looking at a map of the area and talking to some of the men that arrived already. He sat her down and went to question the officer about what his plan was.
Sara Puckett sat down beside her after awhile.
"Marissa right?" she asked handing her a cup of tea. She nodded.
"I'm Sara, Samantha and Melanie's mom..." Mrs. Benson looked up.
"So you're Sam's mother...I'm sorry we've never met before..."
"I wanted to thank you..." Sara continued. "For what?" Marissa was confused.
"For your son..."Marissa smiled. "He went out there to save my daughter ...You raised him right...Samantha is quite fond of him..."
"I did my best...his father left when he was little over a year and a half...never seen again...Freddie never knew the truth about his father...always said he just left...and he did but...he left something's behind." Marissa rubbed her arm where she still had a knife mark from one of his many attacks.
"The girl's dad never knew them, ran when he found out it was twins...and now I might lose one of them...I can't..." Marissa rubbed her knee.
"Freddie knows what to do...He's trained in first aid and if Samantha is hurt...he'll help her...I'm sure they're fine."
"Who's that?" Sara pointed over to Lauren. "Oh that's Lauren, Freddie's girlfriend..." Sara immediately recognised the name. She had listened at the door during one of Sam and Mel's all night conversations.
So that's the girl who's been hassling Sam. She thought. Excusing herself, she got up and walked over to where Carly and Mel now sat.
"Hey girls...Why aren't you talking to Lauren"
"Because...she a two faced bitch whose fault it is Sam and Freddie are missing that's why!" Mel spat. She had been avoiding Lauren all night. She had seen Carly slap her and it felt good. But she afraid if she hit her, she wouldn't stop.
"Ah...the video" remembering Mel explaining earlier on the phone."Can I see it?"
Carly took her phone out of her pocket and loaded the video, handing it to Sara she returned her attention to the woods ahead of her. Although Sara knew what was on the video she was still infuriated when she watched it. Getting up she walked straight over to Lauren, glad to see her shaking as she approached.
"You little bitch..."Slapping her hard. Carly, Spencer, Mel and Mrs. Benson were upon them.
"Mrs. Puckett control yourself" Mrs. Benson whispered, a hand on her heart in shock. Sara handed her the phone pressing play. They waited as the two minute clip played. The anger building up inside Marissa Benson was clear on her face. Handing the phone back she went for Lauren, Spencer stepping in to pull her back.
"No one uses my Freddie...Spencer let me GO!" an officer next to him was pulling Mrs. Puckett away. She too was threatening Lauren. Mel glared at her as she went over to her mother while Carly mutter something that sounded like "She have let them attack" under her breath.
Lauren was too nervous to go to sleep. She knew this wasn't her fault. Sam ran off I didn't make her! And so what if I used the dork, he wasn't complaing when he had his tongue in her mouth.
Deciding she was safer with one of the crew around, she went and started flirting with one of the your camera men is the next area. She would have to get Sam back but how?
