Chapter Fourteen: Found

Two more weeks went by and April had come and brought winter along (Remember seasons are different there). Charlie and Claire were still on the hunt for Aidan and no clues had come yet. The police had said they saw a person matching the description of Thomas but after further investigation discovered it was not him.

As for Charlie's cravings, they had subsided since him and Claire got their groove back. Claire since then had had two more panic attacks; both were unpleasant for her and Charlie.

April 7…

"How you feeling today?" Charlie asked Claire one morning. She had a panic attack in her sleep (yes that can happen) and she hadn't slept much after that.

"Okay, just really tired," Claire said rubbing her eyes. Charlie rubbed her back and kissed the top of her head.

"It will get better love," Charlie said. Claire looked at him.

"When?" Claire asked. "The only reason I'm having these is because my baby is out in the cold weather with the most asshole of a man I've ever known and I don't know if he's cold, hungry, sick…" Claire starting having trouble breathing.

"Claire," Charlie said calmly. "Take a deep breath, just relax." Claire took deep breaths and she could breathe normally after a few seconds. "Okay, you need to have a relaxing day today. What do you want to do?"

"Well, let's invite Jack and Kate over for lunch. We haven't had them over for awhile," Claire said looking down the hall into Aidan's room.

"It's okay," Charlie said. "I'll call them and then we can look for something to eat." Charlie walked over to the phone and called Jack. Claire wandered down the hall and into Aidan's room.

She walked over to his crib and looked over his bed. He had been gone for over a month now; she didn't know what to say to him if he ever asked about this time in his life. Claire ran her hands over his teddy bear and then looked at the picture of her and Charlie attached to the side of the crib.

Claire walked over to his dresser and to the music box Charlie had bought him that played 'Catch A Falling Star'. Next to it was a thing Claire found for his astrology sign, Gemini. She then remembered Kate being one too. Claire smiled and then walked out of the room.

Later…

"You okay?" Kate asked Claire as they cleaned up the kitchen later that afternoon.

"Yeah, great. Why wouldn't I be?" Claire asked.

"Well, I just wanted to know if you'd had any more attacks?" Kate asked.

"Yeah, one last night and almost one today. But Charlie stopped the one today," Claire said.

"I'm glad you guys are back together after that fight. It just wasn't the same when the island's power couple wasn't together," Kate replied smiling. Claire giggled. "Any recent leads on Thomas?"

"Nah, I'm worried. What if I don't get to see my little one's first birthday or hear his first word?" Claire asked.

"Claire, you will. Don't worry, you and Charlie are going to find him," Kate said. Claire smiled as the phone rang.

"I got it!" Charlie said. "Hello?" Claire looked at Charlie to see his face was in thought and then a big smile appeared on his face.

"You're serious?! Thank you so much! Yes, we'll be there! Thank you so much Officer Andrews!" Charlie said. Claire looked at Charlie and he ran over to her and swung her around in his arms.

"Charlie, what's the matter?" Claire asked.

"They found Thomas!" Charlie said. Claire laughed out loud and hugged Charlie, but then she pulled away.

"Wait, what about Aidan?" Claire asked. Charlie smiled.

"He's fine, healthy and safe!" Charlie exclaimed. Claire smiled and tears fell down her cheeks as Charlie kissed her.

"Well, where is he?" Claire asked.

"Melbourne, the thing is we have to fly," Charlie said.

"I don't care, what ever it takes to get Aidan back I'll do it," Claire said. Charlie smiled.

"I'll call the airline," Charlie said.

"Hey, most likely you guys will get a flight for tonight," Jack said. Kate hugged Claire.

"We'll leave and you call us as soon as you get there. And you better bring Aidan to see us when you get him home," Kate said. Claire nodded.

"You bet," Claire said. Charlie hung up the phone.

"We have a 9:40 flight for tonight," Charlie said. Claire nodded. They hugged their friends as Jack and Kate left. Charlie and Claire packed quickly.

"I'm getting some things for Aidan," Claire said. She grabbed his teddy bear, favorite blanket, his music box, and some warmer clothes. Charlie came in with Claire's coat.

"You ready?" he asked smiling at her. She nodded.

"Yes, I want to get our son back home and safe," Claire said. Charlie smiled and Claire put on her coat. They took a cab to the airport and got to their gate.

"What are you going to do when you get Aidan back?" Claire said.

"Kiss him and hold him tight and let Thomas know I'm his father," Charlie said. "And then I'll make sure Thomas does not touch him or you ever again."

"And what are you going to do?" Claire asked.

"Beat the ponce up or worse," Charlie said. Claire smiled and kissed him.

"Don't get yourself in trouble," Claire said as their flight was called. They both looked at each other with nervousness remembering what happened last time.

"You know, the last time I was in a plane I met the love of my life," Claire said. Charlie kissed her hand.

"Same for me," Charlie said as they found their seats. Soon, the plane took off and Claire gripped the armrests. Charlie put his hand on hers to comfort her as they flew to Melbourne.

Yay! Aidan was found! I bet you all are excited now! In the next chapter you'll find out why Thomas wanted Aidan in the first place. It will totally shock you!

REVIEW RESPONSES
