CHAPTER 21

~Brady House ~

Hope is sitting on the couch staring at her watch every five seconds. She can�t believe how late it�s become as she hears a noise outside and runs to the door.

�Bo is that you?� She asked walking onto the front pouch. �Bo?�

�No it�s not Bo, Hope it�s me Patrick.�

She grabs a hold of him and pulls him inside. �Thank you so much for coming. I didn�t know who else to call.� She begins pacing the floor. �I mean I guess I could have called Jennifer but I really didn�t want to wake her this late at night.�

Patrick grabs a hold of her hands and tries to calm her. �Hope please sit down, don�t do this to yourself. Bo�s going to be back soon, I promise.�

�Patrick it�s�� She looks at her. �Oh my god Patrick it�s 1:20 in the morning.� She walks over and looks out the window. �I know something wrong��.I begged him not to go but once again he wouldn�t listen to me.�

�Hope please come and sit down.� He points to the couch. �I�ll go and look for them just tell me where they went.�

She counties to stare out the window. �They went to the park to meet some man who has information about Georgia� but that was hours ago Patrick�what if���

Cutting her off. �Hope you can�t think like that.� He walks over and forces her to sit on the couch. �You need to calm down you�re scaring me.� He picks up the phone and starts dialing.

�Who are you calling?�

�I�m calling�.. Hey Jenn it�s me Patrick� yeah I know it�s late but I need to get over to Hope�s right away, something might have happen to Bo and I can�t get her to calm down.�

�Patrick I�ll be fine.� Hope yelled. �Jenn doesn�t need to come over here and baby sit me she has Jack Jr. to take care of.�

�Thanks Jenn I�ll see you in a few.� He replied ignoring Hope.

�Why did you do that?� Hope demanded to know. �I called you because I didn�t want to bother her. I didn�t want her to worry about me.�

�Hope your cousin loves you and she�s already worried.�

�Patrick?�

�Hope?�

Bo and Billie are lying on the floor of a barely lit room, both are unconscious. A mysterious person opens the door to the room they are in and bends down above them.

Bo shakes his head a little and slightly opens his eyes trying his hardest to focus. �Where am I? Who are you?�

A young girl takes his hand and asked. �Who are you and why are you here?�

Bo looks around the room. �Billie�

�Don�t worry.� The young girl replies. �She�s fine, she�s not dead.�

�How did we get here?� Bo asked slowly sitting up. �What the hell happened?�

�I don�t know what happened to you or how you got here. I just heard my Uncle Tony and some other men talking and I came down here to see what they were hiding.�

�Did you say Uncle Tony?� A shocked Bo asked as he checked Billie�s pulse.

�I told you she�s not dead.�

Bo looked at her. �Who are you?�

The young girl jumped to her feet. �I shouldn�t be here, I must go now.�

�No wait, please� Bo yelled �You can�t just leave us here.�

�I�m sorry I can�t help you, he�d kill me if I let you go.�

�Who would kill you?�

�Bo.� Billie stated opening her eyes. �Why is it so dark?�

�Billie are you okay?� He asked turning his attention towards her.

�Besides this real bad headache.� She rubbed the back of her head. �I think I�m okay.�

�Listen please you have to help��� Bo yelled turning his attention back to the young girl who disappeared the same way she appeared. �Where�d she go?�

�Where�d who go.� Billie asked making her way to her feet. �And what happened to that guy in the park.� She looked around the room. �Where are we?�

�Who cares where we are. The more important question is how do we get out of here.�

And with that the door suddenly opened. Bo and Billie just looked at each other.

�Bo what should we do? Should we make a run for it or what?�

�There�s something not right here Billie. I mean why would somebody go to all this trouble to bring us here if they just plan on letting us go?�

�Who knows why the DiMera�s do anything they do. I say we take our chances and get the heck out of here.�

�Jenn you really didn�t have to come over here.�

�Hope, I love you.� She replied walking out of the kitchen with a pot of  tea. �There�s no way I�m going to allow you to go through this alone.� She poured them both a cup and then handed one to Hope. �Drink this it will calm you down�.. You know maybe we should call your doctor?�

�Jenn I�m fine you don�t need to bother him.�

Jenn walks over to the phone. �What about Lexie then I can give her a call.�

Hope walked over and took the phone from her. �No I don�t want you calling anybody please.�

�Fine then.� She walks her back over to the couch. �if you lay down and try and take it easy I won�t call anybody just yet.�

Hope placed her hand over her stomach.

�Hope honey you okay?�

Hope tired to catch her breath which just worried Jenn even more.

�That�s it I�m calling the hospital and letting them know we�re on our way.�

�No Jenn I�m fine really, it past.�

She ran back over to her. �Hope the look on your face it almost looked like you were���

�In labor.� Hope stated cutting her off. �Between you and me it felt like a contraction� but you have to promise me you aren�t going to say anything to Bo.�

�Hope if you�re having contractions this early in your pregnancy we need to get you to the hospital.�

�I�m fine really, I�m not even sure if that�s what it was.�

�Hope you and I have both been pregnant enough times to know when we�re going into labor.�

�I have two and a half more months to worry about that�.now really Jenn I�m fine.�

Patrick comes racing back through the door.

�Patrick thank God your back did you find Bo and Billie?� Hope asked rushing to his side.

�No, I didn�t.� He looks up at Jenn and she can tell it�s bad news.

�Patrick tell me what happened?� Hope yelled

�Patrick just tell us.� Jenn chimed in.

�I couldn�t fine Bo or Billie anywhere, but�..�

�But what?� Hope asked crying.

�But I did find his car and it seems like there was some kind of struggle.�

�NOOOOOOOO� Hope cried breaking down into Patrick�s arms.
