Four weeks until the due date, Tina was exhausted. Everytime the door rang, she cursed. Tina opened the door. It was Matt Carter, with a rose in his hand.

"Tina..." he tried. But she just shut the door. "Tina, I love you, at least talk to me?!" He called through the door.

"I love Tommy!" She ran back upstairs. Matt left, heartbroken

Now Tina was left alone, she dug out the packet of crisps hidden under the sofa (hidden from Tommy) and devoured them in seconds. Once she settled with a Nigella show, she was satisfyingly comfortable. Until the doorbell rang. She pressed the buzzer and the booming voice came through.

"I have your pizza." He said. Tina wondered, who ordered pizza? Then she realised it was probably Tommy's surprise! She smiled then raced downstairs. When she opened, her mouth dropped open.

"We meet again, Tina."

"...R, R, Rick?!" Tina quivered, as she came face to face with her old enemy.

"I see you've gained the pounds over the years. Come with me." Calmly, Rick got hold of Tina's arm and yanked it, pulling Tina five metres to a white van.

"Let go of me! HELP! TOMMY!" She screamed, but no one was there. She saw a brief glance of Matt Carter, rose on the ground. He frowned, the ran after it.

"Get in the back, now." He pushed her in, then locked the back door. Matt Carter appeared in front of Rick.

"What the fuck are you doing?" He rose.

"You ain't seen nothing." For his troubles, he got a punch in the stomach.


On Tommy's lunch break, he check to see how Tina was but was surprised when he saw the door open. He went through, and closed it gently behind him. Inspecting the flat, he realised Tina must of gone out to get something and mistakenly left the door open. He thought nothing of it and went off to have his lunch at work. Until he noticed that round the corner, was Dr Carter sprawled out across the cobbles.

"Dr?" He rushed over there. "are you alright, mate?" Carter just groaned.

"Tina... V... Van..."

"What?"

"Save... Tina..." He managed. Tommy was now worried. He picked him up and shook him around.

"What? Spit it out!" He shouted in his face. Then Owen came charging over.

"Oi, oi, leave him be! Why'd you punch him in the face, man?"

"He didn't..." Carter got his senses back. "Tina got..." He winced in pain.

"What?!" Tommy demanded.

"Tina got... thrown into a white van parked right here. The man who threw her... punched me."

"WHAT!" Tommy paced up and down frantically.

"Wait, hold on a minute, mate... did you say white van?" Owen inquired.

"Yes..."

"He was parked over there at first, on my property. Is he that guy with the weird scars on his cheek?"

"Yeah! Him!" Carter said.

"I got his number plate on my phone-"

"Give it here!" Tommy snatched it off of him. He looked at the photo. He got his own phone and dialled 999. "Police, I'm reporting a kidnapping. No, I won't bloody hold, my girlfriend has just gotten kidnapped! Oh um... WM54 FYY. I have no idea where he went... thanks bye. I'm going."

"Where?" Carter asked.

"To look for the damn van! Owen, tell Nick. Some things are more important in life."

"Wait I'm coming with you!" Carter pleaded. Tommy thought for longer than he should.

"... four eyes are better than two. But we're using your car, and I'm driving."

"Yes, fine whatever."


Tina now got over the sobbing stage, and wondered where she was. Judging the flatness and minimal turns, she reckoned she was on a motorway. "Where are you taking me?!"

"That's for me to know and you to find out." He said, without looking back. "For now, I'm getting petrol. There's no point in saying to you 'try not to escape', because you can't."

"You bastard! I'm 8 months pregnant!" She shouted.

"I don't care if you're an old age pensioner," He suddenly twisted round, after they pulled into Shell. "By the time I'm done with you, you'll wish you were never born." He opened the door and left. She pulled her mobile out of her bra, one of the only places Rick didn't look. Quickly she texted Tommy.

"Help, Rixk kidnappd me, in petrol station off motorway i think hurry i need help" She sped, not caring about spelling. Within seconds, her phone vibrated.

"It's Carter. Me and Tommy are on our way, and we have the van's number plate. Tell us what motorway you're on!" After Tina read this, she quickly tucked in back into her bra and Rick climber back in.

"Once we get off this bloody M60, you'll know what I have in store for you." He drove off. Tina thought and exclaimed to herself. M60! Now she just had to find a way to text Tommy, without Rick noticing.
