Ria was numb. She couldn't eat, she couldn't sleep, she even found breathing to be hard sometimes. Jake was doing everything he could to find Aria and keep Ria alive.

She was constantly crying, and got to the point where it was so bad Josh and Geena moved in to help Jake with her.

Ria sat in the window sill looking out at the heavy rain falling, leaving mist hanging around the trees. she sighed and ran her fingers through her hair.

Jake was watching her from the doorway arms folded. He didn't know what to do with her. He sighed and ran a tired hand over his face

She heard him, and turned to face him. For the first time in weeks she actually smiled at him, but it didn't reach her eyes. He shut the door, and layed down across the bed. She turned the light off and layed close to him resting her head on his chest. She played idly with the hem of his flannel and gazed at him.

He and Ria hadn't had sex since before Aria went missing. Experimentally he pressed his lips to hers nervousness building in his stomach. Suprisingly she responded slowly unbuttoning his shirt. he broke away from her and looked at her questioningly

"Ria we dont-" But she slipped his flannel off his shoulders and silenced him with her lips. She pulled her sweatpants off and slipped Jake's t-shirt off as he pulled her shirt off. He balanced his weight on his hands as she pressed herself against him breathing heavily into his ear.

It was quick and rough, and a distraction for the time being.

Tears sprung to Ria's eyes as she layed in darkness clutching on to Jake.

What else could they do? They had hung posters, been on the news, begged and pleaded, and still there daughter was not home.

She waited everyday for weeks for a phone call that never came.

Ria leaned in and slammed her lips to Jake's pushing her tounge into his mouth. He responded eagerly, feeling that for the first time in weeks she was alive. She pulled him on top of her and they moved in rythm, quickly and wildly. She dug her fingernails into his back, clawing him and drawing blood.

It was just what she needed to feel like herself again. Jake rolled off her and layed next to her. She snuggled close to him and fell into a troubled sleep.

Jake layed wide awake, one arm loosely around Ria's shoulder one arm behind his head.

His frowning features were illuminated by misty moonlight filtering through the window as a million thoughts raced through his mind

He missed his old life.

he missed his daughter, and his wife

And he would stop at nothing to find out who took that from him.

Even if he had to kill the sick son of a bitch
