Rick's POV
Chapter 6
"Thomas, this is getting us nowhere. We've spent the last hour and a half talking to these shop owners and none of them saw anything. I think it's time we tried something else."
"Rick, trust me. I know what I'm doing. If the guys who took Chrissy waited around for awhile before she finally came by, then someone was bound to have seen them."
Seeing that I was still unconvinced, Thomas caved.
"Fine, fine. We'll try something else."
"Good."
"After, of course, we try one last store." he said with a smile.
I followed Thomas, somewhat unwillingly, into the next store.
"Can I help you?" asked the man at the counter.
"Yes." Thomas replied. "We were wondering if you'd be willing to answer a few questions."
"Certainly."
"Did you see any suspicious looking men around here last night?" Thomas asked.
He thought for awhile before he answered. "I might have seen the guys you're looking for. They came in not long before I closed for the night. I remember them because they didn't seem like the type of men who would come into an antique shop such as mine."
"Can you describe them for us?" I asked.
"They were both big, muscular men. One looked to be about your height." he said, pointing towards Thomas. "The other one was a little bit shorter. They both had short, dark brown hair and green eyes. That's about all I can tell you I'm afraid."
"Thank you very much for your help." Thomas said.
"If there's anything else I can do to help you, please come back." the man said with a smile.
Thomas nodded in acknowledgement as we walked out the door.
"Well, that's not much to go on, but it's a start." Thomas said once we were outside.
"Thomas," I said, deep in thought, "I think I know who those guys are."
"Who?" Thomas questioned.
"It's a long shot, but it's worth looking into." I said, ignoring Thomas.
"Rick, who do you think they are?"
"They're the only guys I can think of who match that description and could possibly want to hurt Chrissy. I'll have to find a photo to show that shop owner in order to know for sure."
"Rick!" Thomas shouted in frustration.
"What?"
"Answer my question!" "Please?" he said as an afterthought.
"What question?"
He sighed, clearly annoyed. "Who do you think they are?"
I stopped walking and looked at him.
"I think they're Lizzie's brothers.
A/N: the next chapter i write will most likely be from rick's pov, so you can find out who lizzie is then!
