The wrong kind of comfort
Chapter 6
Kidnapped
Noah's eyes scanned the small sheet of paper, His eyes widened and his heart leapt into his throat.
"What is it"? Asked Flynn , slightly concerned with how Noah was reacting.
"Ring the cops"
"What? Why"?
"Just do it "
Flynn reached for the phone and after a few moments hung up
"There're on their way, now what's this all about?"
Wordlessly Noah handed him the note
Flynn took the note three words stared back at him
Looking for someone?
Hayley Smith sighed as she shut the fridge
"Nothing" she declared "Absolutely nothing"
She entered the living room and threw herself onto the couch, next to Dani
"I would offer you something, but..."
"It's fine Hayley", Her friend interrupted. "Really".
Hayley sighed "Ok, not that I mind, but what's this emergency meeting all about"?
"It's about Scott"
Hayley grinned, "I see"
"I'm worried about him"
Hayley frowned "What's wrong"?
"This whole issue with Kit" she shook her head "It's really gotten to him"
"Well he is her brother"
"I know" she paused "It's just different this time, He really thinks something is wrong".
"And you don't?"
"I'm not sure, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I just wish she'd come back, so Scott and I can go back to normal, his avoiding my Hayl's, I miss him"
Before Hayley could respond the phone rang, she patted Dani's shoulder "Just a sec"
"Hello" she answered
"Ok we'll get him right away, thanks Noah"
She hang up, "Dan"
Her friend turned around "What"?
"We need to find Scott and then we need to meet Noah at the drop in center"
"Why"?
"I don't know, but it sounds pretty urgent"
Dani reached for her bag "lets go"
Alf placed the burger and fries on the table
"There you go mate"
Scott looked at the food then at Alf, "I didn't order"
"I know, it's on me, you look like you need a feed"
Scott smiled "Thanks"
The older man nodded and walked away. He bit into the burger thoughtfully, not realizing how hungry he was till he did. I'll go look for her again, he decided, after I finish this.
15 minutes later he was at his car, just as he was putting his key in the ignition, his mobile rang.
"Hello"
Dani's voice sounded from the other end.
"We've been trying to get onto you for ages"
"I was at the diner
"Well you need to meet us at the drop in center"
"I can't I'm going to go look for Kit"
"You can't, Noah said you had to be there, it's important"
He sighed, "Fine I'm on my way"
Josh West entered the room, seeing Kit lying hunched like on the bed, he drew his hand back and hit the wall hard. This wasn't in his plan.
"What's wrong with you"? He demanded Beth sat in the chair rigid, staring disbelievingly up at the officer. Rhys stood behind her with his hands on her shoulders, with Scott and Dani sitting either side of her with their hands in hers. Noah stood with Flynn and Hayley in the background.
"Are you sure"? She whispered
"We aren't completely sure of anything Mrs. Hunter ". He held up the note. "We only have this and therefore we can only go by this for now" he sighed heavily "at the moment we have a reason to believe that your daughter has been kidnapped"
