Authors note; I know the last chapter was really short I'm going to make it up to you I promise!

I didn't know where I was going to go I had no idea where he was

I just needed to go, the pain was too much, I had to take action.

By the time we got outside the sky was blue but rain had started to

trickle down wetting the front of my ever fading black top, I threw a

little yellow Mac over Nat's head, and bundled her into the car. I

found myself a couple of hours later in New York (A/N: I know it

probably takes longer than that to get to New York from California

but I don't live in America) on 288 Randolph Drive knocking on a

door "is this where Daddy lives Mommy?" I looked down at my child

what was I doing bringing her here of all places, I clutched her hand

more tightly " No honey"

"who does then" she said looking up at me with her deep dark Jesse

eyes " A umm…friend of mine, he's called-" The door swung open

"Suze?" I didn't dare look into his piercing blue eyes

"umm… yeah hi Paul" The rain had got heavier and I can't imagine what my hair looked like "What are you doing here" he said before

looking down at Natalia "Is this your kid, Jesse's kid?" I slowly nodded thinking anytime now he would slam the door in our faces

"I suppose you better come in then" I looked around the building we had entered it was very like his old house back in Carmel very modern all silver and metallic, Paul looked down at Natalia again

"You touch her and I kill you" I said, I did not want to get my daughter involved with Paul Slater "ok, ok I wasn't going to"

"So umm Suze why are you here, how many years has it been?"

I couldn't believe this, I couldn't believe I was doing this why was I here and then I remembered; because Paul is a mad psychopath and he hates Jesse's guts so it's quite likely he

knows something about his mysterious disappearance "it's about Jesse" to my surprise Paul's expressionless face did not expressionise "what about him" I really didn't want to explain

it pained me to much but I had to otherwise I was not going to get anywhere "Jesse went missing a while back" Paul didn't seem to show any sorrow for me in fact he looked quite

happy "I'm sorry to hear that but what's that got to do with me" I raised one eyebrow at him "don't give me that Paul, you know something don't you?" he shook his head half laughing

although I really didn't see what was funny about my husband disappearing "honestly I don't for all we know Suze, Jesse might be dead" I turned my head away from him that hurt,

that hurt more than all those times I'd spent Christmases, Birthdays, Anniversaries with out him being there beside me "Shut up Paul"

"ok but it's the truth he might be dead" I didn't say anything the words were ringing round my head and hitting me hard smack bang in the face.

"Look Paul can we at least spend the night we've nowhere else to go"

"Sure go on upstairs I just have to make a phone call" and with that he'd gone.
