Stranger In My House
Disclaimer: I do not own them!
Dana stood in the kitchen holding Benjamin, she had tried to hold back tears but, now they silently streamed down her face, leaving dark mascara streaks behind. Dana held the baby close to her as she gently rocked him to sleep. Annabelle entered the kitchen were her daughter stood, she placed her hand on Dana's back.
"Darling, let me take him and you can go help the detectives"
Dana was hesitant when her mother touched Benjamin, she took a step back.
"Dana, he'll be safe with me, I promise" she said softly.
Dana nodded and allowed Annabelle to take him out of her arms. Dana turned to the door when Nick came into the kitchen.
"Honey, they want to go upstairs and look through Abby's room"
"Okay" Dana agreed
Nick pulled Dana into his embrace and wiped away a tear with his finger.
"We're going to get her back" Nick reassured her
"then let's go help the detectives" Dana responded
"Alright" Nick took her hand and once again they walk into the living room to face the crowd of law enforcement.
Detective Logan approached them, "Doctors, could you take me upstairs and show me where Abby's room is?"
Dana nodded, "right this way" Nick said walking towards the steps with Dana's hand still in his. Brooke followed them up the stairs and down the hall, Dana turned the knob and pushed the door open, walking into the room. Behind her Nick flipped the light switch on.
Brooke looked around the room, "Doctor Stowe, when you entered the room this morning, you said the curtains were open, correct?"
"yes, the curtains were open but, I'd shut them last night before she went to bed" Dana added
"you said the light was bright, was there a window open?" Brooke asked
"no" Dana responded
"could she have gotten up in the middle of the night and opened the window?"
"no, the windows have to be un-latched and then pushed out, she would've never had the strength" Nick answered
"alright, do you have a security system?" Brooke asked
"we have a security camera but, it only scans the front yard" Dana said
"well, that's a start, let's get the tape from the camera and see if there's anything on there that might be of use" Detective Logan walked out of the room. Dana and Nick stood there silently looking around the room.
"God Dana, where is she?" Nick asked
"I don't know, how could this have happened?" Dana answered beginning to cry again.
It had been about three hours since the house had cleared out, Detective Logan had taken the security tape with her and said she would call in the morning. Dana had been tossing and turning in bed for the past hour, she couldn't sleep, her thoughts were focused on her daughter.
Nick turned over to face his wife, "Dana" he said lightly as he placed his hand over her abdomen, "there's nothing we can do right now, try to get some sleep".
Dana sniffled, "I'll try"
Dana felt somewhat safer in his arms and let her self drift off to sleep.
It was late at night, Dana was walking outside, the wind was blowing through her hair and pushed her night gown closer to her body, as she walked, she heard a voice, "Mommy"
Dana looked into the night but, she saw nothing, she then heard the voice again, "Mommy, Mommy, help me"
Dana stood still in the yard, "Abby?" she called
"Abby, where are you?" Dana asked
"help me" the voice screamed
"I coming Abby" Dana started to run and before she could get to the end of the driveway a shadow moved quickly across the yard and into the night, Dana ran down to the end of the driveway and partially down the street, only to see nothing
Finally she screamed, "Abbigal"
Nick bolted up in the bed and turned to Dana to comfort her, "Dana it's okay, honey, everything's going to be alright" he said reassuring her. Dana began to cry loudly, not being able to hold them back any longer, tear after tear poured down her face as Nick held her close, he too began to silently cry.
The next morning the phone rung waking both of them up, Dana looked at Nick.
"It's detective Logan"
Nick turned his body around to reach the phone, he hesitated before picking it up, "Hello?"
A deep voice came across the line, "ah, Doctor Biancavilla"
"yes, who is this?"
"The messenger is not important but, tell me doctor, what are your sins?"
Nick slammed the phone down on the receiver.
"who was it?" Dana asked
"A prank caller" Nick responded
