Chapter 6

Later that night, Amanda sees Declan on the couch looking at her wedding scrapbook. She walks up to the couch. She sits next to him and she lays on his chest. Amanda knows that she's going to have to tell Declan that Patton threatened her.

"Hey darling. The baby's asleep in her crib." Declan says.

"I need to tell you something." Amanda says.

Amanda gets closer to Declan as she lays on his chest. He is trying to figure out what Amanda is trying to tell him. Declan asks Amanda what's wrong and she tells him the truth.

"Patton threatened me." Amanda says.

"What? Why?" Declan asks.

"I don't know. He threatened my dad too." Amanda cries.

Declan holds Amanda in his arms as she cries in his arms. She cries and he comforts her. He strokes her hair and he kisses her on her forehead.

"What happened?" Declan asks.

"First, Patton called my dad and he threatened him." Amanda replies.

Declan isn't happy that Amanda told him that Patton threatened her father. He asks more about the threat made against her father.

"How did he threaten your father?" Declan asks.

"He told my father that if he told anyone that he was returning to New York, he would drug him." Amanda responds.

"I'm not going to let Patton drug your father." Declan says.

Amanda continues to tell Declan more about the threats. She doesn't want to be around Patton. Declan continues stroking her hair.

"How did he threaten you?" Declan asks.

"He told me that if I told anyone that he's returning to New York, he would kidnap Jesse." Amanda cries.

"Oh my God." Declan says.

Declan holds Amanda in his arms as she cries. He soothes her and comforts her. Amanda knows that her fiancé will take care of her and Jesse. Declan finds Patton's email address in the phone book.

"What are you going to do?" Amanda asks.

"I'm going to send him a message online." Declan replies.

Declan goes on the computer and he writes a message. The message is for Patton. He tells him that if hurts his fiancée, he'll tell everyone that Patton's a rapist.
