Sorry about the confusion, a few of you thought I was done with the story, last time when I said "that's it" I meant for that chapter
Are you kidding? There's no way Im done!
Disclaimer: I don't own 7th heaven, or Tupperware. But Cari, Detective Rodgers, and Mark are mine.
*******************************************
Mary sat silent in the hard plastic chair. Wilson was next to her, his hand over his mouth, staring blankly out of the window. She was nervously shredding the tissue that the nice policewoman had given her; little pieces of tissue fuzz were landing all over her skirt.
Detective Rodgers voice brought them out of their daze, "ok guys, it's time." Wilson grabbed Mary's hand and they started for the door. The policewoman at the desk handed Mary another tissue, she thanked her.
As soon as the double doors opened, the cameras started clicking rapidly. Detective Rodgers stepped up to the podium, "thank you everyone for coming here today."
Mary squeezed Wilson's hand tightly. She was never that afraid of public speaking. But blubbering about her kidnapped . . . well Billy, to the whole nation, scared her to death.
"One picture of the suspect was retrieved in her apartment last night," detective Rodgers continued, "that photo has been sent to all of your stations and we ask that you add it to all of your reports. The young boy's parents are here now to make a statement. We are not allowing questions at this point in the case." He looked back at Mary and Wilson, this was their cue.
Wilson stepped up, and Mary stayed securely at his side. As Wilson told viewers to call if they knew anything regarding Billy, Mary stared out into the sea of TV cameras and reporters. She could barely focus on anything, she felt like everything was just spinning. She faintly heard Wilson begging Cari to bring Billy back.
How could this have happened? She was Mary's friend . . .they trusted her.

"Please, bring him home safe" the familiar voice on the TV said. "That was Wilson West, the father of the boy that was taken from his home by his babysitter." The cute blonde reporter informed them, "If you have any information regarding this case please call the number at the bottom of your screen. After the break, things heat up at the chili cook off today"
Annie switched the TV off as quickly as possible, "how awful" she said quietly to no one in particular. She couldn't get the image out of her mind, of her baby girl standing there, eyes glazed over, tears pouring down her face as she tightly clutched Wilson's hand with both of hers.
"It's bad karma," Lucy stated flatly
Annie whipped around with fire in her eyes, "Lucy, your sister may have made some mistakes, but no one deserves to have their children taken from them"
Lucy angrily folded her arms and leaned back on the couch as her mother stomped up the stairs, "he's not even her child" she scowled.

"Thank you grandma Ruth" Mary said taking the Tupperware from her.
"Not a problem dear" she kissed Mary's forehead, "now you call me if you need anything alright dear?"
Mary nodded with a slight smile and shut the door. She avoided all of the police wires and finally made her way to the kitchen. She grabbed two forks, if it weren't for her grandmother coming by 3-4 times a day and forcing them to eat something, her and Wilson would have starved to death.
She made her way through the tangled mess and set the Tupperware in the middle and handed Wilson a fork. "Dig in" she said pulling the lid off of the lasagna. Just then, there was a knock at the door.
"I'll get it" Mary said as she once again made her way through the wire jungle. She saw the technician staring at her; she smiled awkwardly at him and continued toward the door. It was weird always having a complete stranger in the house, but they needed someone on 24hour surveillance incase someone called.
Mary made one final jump over an extension cord and opened the door. In front of her was a man and a boy standing next to him.
"Hi, Im Mark, I'm Michelle's ex-husband"
