Angels - Chapter 4

Kevin pulled into the Camden driveway and immediately noticed that Lucy's car was gone, maybe Simon borrowed it? Somehow Kevin knew that wasn't the case, besides Simon had his own car. Kevin ran up to the garage apartment, taking the steps 3 at a time, maybe she left a note?

Even though Kevin knew Lucy's car was gone, somehow he had expected Lucy to be exactly where he had left her, when he saw that she wasn't he panicked, "Lucy?" he called out. Kevin quickly surveyed the apartment, trying to figure out what the horrible smell was. His eyes rested on Lucy's throw up as panic took over him, "Lucy!?" he cried out softly. Where is Lucy? Is she okay? Of course she's not okay? You left her! Oh what have I done?

Kevin looked up at the ceiling, "God, please let her be okay. Please!" tears were again running down Kevin's cheeks.

Kevin quickly cleaned up the mess than wiped away his tears and ran down stairs and into the kitchen, where Eric, Annie, Simon and Christine were talking. Ignoring the fact that they seemed to be deep in conversation about something, Kevin almost screamed, "does anyone know where Lucy went?"

Surprised, everyone turned toward Kevin, none of them had ever seen him so worried.

"no, Kevin what's wrong?" The compassionate tome in Eric's voice made Kevin want to tell him everything, but he knew that right then he needed to find Lucy, and that she probably didn't want them to know.

"nothing." Kevin said quickly, "I just need to find her."

"well do you want us to help you look?"

"no, I'm sure she's fine." Kevin knew that they would be a big help in finding her, but he needed to be the one that found her.

"are you sure?"

"yes. I need to be the one to find her." With that Kevin ran out the door.

Eric and Annie looked at each other, Simon and Christine stared at them, wondering what they were going to do.

"should we go look for her?" The worry in Eric's tone surprised Annie,

"no, I'm sure she's fine. They probably just had a fight."

"are you sure, I've never seen him that worried before."

Just them Mary and Matt walked in the door.

"oh Simon, there you are. We were out looking for you."

Before Simon had a chance to answer Annie jumped up and ran to Mary with Eric behind her

"Mary it's so good to see you again! I didn't know you were coming!"

"I know, I came home for a surprise visit."

Matt nudged her, but Mary ignored him

Eric, who was still worried about Lucy hugged Mary than asked, "do either of you know where Lucy is?"

"last time we saw her, she and Kevin were heading back here. Why?"

"Kevin came in a little while ago, looking for her, he was really worried."

"uh-oh". Mary and Matt looked at each other.

"what do you know?"
