Chapter 6:

A can of soda soared to the ground, the liquid within soaking most of the kitchen floor and splattering against the cabinets. But this went unnoticed by Ned, he pressed his, now free, hand against his other ear to shut every possible sound out. "Moze, still with me girl, where are you?" Ned asked, completely panicking at the quietness on the other end of the line.

"I… i'm… please, help me," The voice was raw, the cry pleading. It sounded like she had huge difficulty to breathe. Ned tightened his grip on his cell phone. "Moze, where are you?" He asked again. A soft click was heard and the line went dead.

"Moze? Moze! Jennifer!" Ned yelled, but no avail.

"Aargh," in pure frustration, Ned slammed his fist on the counter.

He was so scared, yet overjoyed that she was still alive, that little black dots blurred his sight.

"I will find you girl, I promise," with that said, the dots grew larger until blackness surrounded him.

"Ned? Ned!" the voice that called him seemed to come from afar. Ned opened his eyes. The bright light on the ceiling right above him was blinding, he blinked a couple of times before he realized that someone was knelt beside him.

He looked in his dad worried face, and tried to focus his gaze.

"Your mom and i started to wonder when your depression would get the better of you…" Ned heard his father say, but didn't listened; he just found out how he ended up onto the kitchen floor.

"Dad, you have to listen to me, we have to save Moze!" Ned said, panicking again, subconsciously he had grabbed his father's shirt by the collar in a very tight grip. His fathers expression became stern. "Now listen Ned, i've had enough of your crazy idea's! You keep repeating that Jennifer is still alive, breeding on a ridiculous theory that she managed to get off the train because they never found her body… When do you open your eyes, and see what kind of grief your 'believes' brings to the Mosley family! Jennifer, how much it hurts me to say it, will never walk though our front door again Ned! Try to accept that, and then you're able to deal with it!" Ned never saw his dad so angry, and he knew that when he was angry, it wasn't pretty. But he also knew that Jennifer was still out there, probably dying while he was arguing.

"Dad," Ned said far more calmly then he felt. "Moze just called me on my cell, she asked… no… begged me for help! And while we are discussing my sanity, she is dying!"

Mr. Bigby got up from his kneeling position. "That's it young man, i'm calling doctor Hykes!" He walked towards the phone and dialed a number. Ned got up also, he knew that convincing his dad was a lost case. He walked towards the kitchen door, his father saw him and turned. "Where are you going young man?" He demanded slightly worried.

"I'm going to find Moze, and if you won't help me, i find someone who will…" With that, the kitchen door swung shut. Ned heard a faint "Get back here this instant Ned Bigby" before he closed the front door. He knew that he was in trouble, but couldn't care less, he finally had proof that Moze was still alive.

Ned placed his bike against Cookies garage wall, before realizing that Cookie left to visit his aunt. Softly cursing under his breath he withdrew the bike from the wall and exited Cookies street. A few minutes later, he stopped his bike at Suzie's house. With a faint feeling of nervousness he rang the bell.

Suzie opened the door, surprised to find Ned on her threshold, looking hopeless.

"Ned are you alright?" She asked with worry.

"Suzie, i know that you won't believe me, but please hear me out," Ned pleaded.

Suzie looked puzzled, but stepped back so Ned could come in.

"So, i'm listening…" Suzie said as soon they sat in her comfy living room.

Ned took a deep breath. "Its about Moze,"

"Ned, no, i don't want to hear you saying that you found yet another proof that she's still alive. I can't stand it anymore! Can't you see how much you hurt people by keep saying that? Losing a friend is hard enough without someone that keeps claiming that she's still alive! I know you miss her Ned, we all do. But face it, she is gone!" Suzie's eyed filled with tears.

"Suzie, she called me on my cell, she begged me for help," Ned spoke softly.

Suzie let out a sob. "She called you?"

"Yes she did! She asked me to help her," Ned repeated again.

Suzie sobbed again. "I think its best that you leave," She managed to say before she broke down crying.

"Suzie…" Ned felt awful. He knew that he was hurting her.

"Leave!" Suzie yelled, devastated.

Ned sighed and stood up, Suzie wasn't going to believe him either.

Once again, Ned found himself on a driveway, he needed help soon, but the ones that could help him didn't believe him, and the only one Ned knew he had a chance with, left the town. Frustrated he kicked against the garage wall, took his bike and hit the road again.

He could mentally kick himself for forgetting his cell phone, that still lay discarded onto the kitchen floor, going back to get it wasn't an option, seeing that his father might lock him up or something.

But he was also starting to doubt himself, did that phone call really happened? Or did he dream it while he was unconscious? Besides, what chances are there that Jennifer did called him, and repeated the exact same thing at the exact same way? The words still haunted Ned's head, more then it did before…

Was his dad right? Did his depression really got the better of him? Defeated, Ned went back home.

He just has to cope with the fact that he lost the girl of his dreams.

His father looked up at him when he entered the living room.

"Dad, i want to say… i'm sorry. I just cant bear the thought of not having her in my live anymore… you're right dad, i should accept the fact that she's gone, and try to deal with that…" Ned sat down on the couch.

"No Ned, you were right…" His father said in a soft tone.

Ned's head snapped up. "What…?"

Then his eye fell upon his cell phone that his father was holding.

"I checked, she really did call you…" Mr. Bigby continued with a expression of disbelief mixed with shock.

Ned jumped up. "Then why are we sitting here?"

"Your mother has the car…" his father said, looking defeated.

Ned smacked his hand against his head.

"Wait…" He took his cell phone and dialed. "Brian, can i ask you a favor?"
