Thanks for all the reviews! From what I am reading I take it I am doing this right, lol. I hope so, and hope I can continue to do so, cause I am a big fan of this show, and want this story to show that. So with that said, here is the next chapter I promised.
Chapter 6: Nick LaQuin
31 Hours Missing/3 pm
Jack located Nick LaQuin in one of the production trailers on the set of Envy. He knocked on the door. A young man about the age of 25 opened the door, "Yes, may I help you?"
"Are you Nick LaQuin?"
"Yes, and you are?"
"Agent Jack Malone, FBI."
"FBI? What's this about?"
"Alicia Waters, she's missing."
"Oh my God! When? Where?" he asked. "Come on in, excuse the mess."
Jack followed the young man into the trailer, "When was the last time you saw Alicia?"
"Thursday night, she was so excited about going to that seminar on Friday."

"I can't believe it, I got in!" Alicia screamed as she hung up the phone.
"Are you serious?"
"Yes!"
"I am so happy for you!" he said as he embraced Alicia. "Seats are hard to get at that seminar, it's always packed. You are so lucky."
"I know it must be fate."
"Thought you didn't believe in fate."
"I don't, I believe in God. He has blessed me abundantly in life."
"You know I have a feeling you are right."

"She was so happy," said Nick as he finished recounting to Jack the last time he saw Alicia.
"She never made it to the seminar."
"Something must have happened to her then, cause there is no way in hell she would ever miss that."
"Where were you yesterday morning about 8:00am?"
"Am I a suspect?"
"Everyone is when someone is missing. No offense."
"None taken, after all I am the boyfriend. Ok, I was here on the set, from 6am till about 12 noon, then we broke for lunch. Returned at 1:30, and left at about 2 am." Nick said looking down. "You know I have tried to call Alicia a couple of times, even beeped her, and now I can only fear the reason she hasn't called back." The look on his face was one of serious concern.
"I understand you threatened to walk if Alicia wasn't hired in the lead role, is that right?"
"Yeah, it's true."
"Why?"
"Cause she has that thing. You know the thing where you go to a movie just to see her. She has that flair, like Nicole Kidman and Halle Berry, you know classy."
"When did you start seeing her personally?"
"About a week ago, just dating, nothing beyond that. She wants to wait till she's married to you know."
"Yeah, I get the picture. Did she have any stalkers or receive any hate mail, that you know of?"
"If she received any hate mail, I never knew about it. And as far as stalkers, the only one I can think of is Janet Richards."
"Why do you think Ms Richards was stalking Alicia?"
"Cause for the last week, every time we turned around, there she was. Even though she wasn't supposed to come within 500 feet of Alicia, she did more than that."
"Did you or Alicia report Ms. Richards for going against the restraining order?"
"I did, a court hearing was set for, hold on let me look at the calender," he said as he stood up and walked across the room, and turned back to Jack. "It's set for Monday."
"This hearing is set to hear about Ms. Richards violating the restraining order, right?"
"Yes, but if Alicia isn't there, the charges might get dropped. I mean unless they will listen to me alone."
"They might, but it won't look good to the judge for Alicia not to show up."
The story is coming along nicely, or at least I hope so. Next chapter is on the way!
