(Chrissy�s POV)

*Ring�Ring�Ring*
�Can you hold on for a second,� I asked the man who sat in front of me. �Hello?�
�Chrissy,� JC said crying. �There has been an accident.�
I didn�t know what to say.
�Ac�Accident,� I asked. �What kind of accident?�
�The girl�s are�m�missing,� JC said. �You have to go to Crystal�s right away. We will meet you there.�
I hung up the phone and burst into tears. I didn�t know what to do or how to act and I was supposed to be somebody who knew how to do that.
�I�m so sorry,� The man said. �Are you okay?�
�No,� I said. �My little girl is missing.�
�I�m so sorry,� He said. �I hope you find her.�
�Thank you,� I said. �I hope I do too. I am so sorry to have to make you leave, but I have to leave.�
�It�s fine,� The man said. �I will call you in about a week. Good luck.�
I put a note on the door.

Dear Patients,

I am so sorry for not being here for your scheduled appointment, but my little girl is missing and I have to go find her. I will call you as soon as possible to reschedule.
Dr. Chrissy Kirkpatrick


I drove frantically to get to Crystal and Lance�s. I couldn�t think of anything except some memories that I had of Chris, Danielle and I at the beach when we all went on vacation.

*~*Flashback*~*
�Chrissy,� Crystal said as she knocked on the door of mine and Chris� hotel room. �Justin, Joey, Lance and I are going to the beach. Wanna come?�
�Sure,� I said. �Hold on. I will get Danielle and Chris.�
Crystal sat down on the chair by the door waiting for me to come out of the bathroom with Chris and Danielle. Danielle was only about 1 and a half. I put a different diaper her and Chris followed me out.
�Let�s go,� Joey said. �I am so hot and there are some fine looking ladies out there without their tops on.�
�Joey,� Crystal said. �That is so gross. I can�t believe you. You are so male!�
�Yeah,� I exclaimed. �That is just so typical!�
�I would look at only you,� Chris said as he gave me a kiss and hug. �I love staring at you and only you.�
�Where is Lance,� Justin asked. �And JC too?�
�JC is sleeping. Lance is watching Stephanie,� Crystal said. �She was up all night sick.�
We walked out of the hotel and down to the water. We placed our beach towels down on the white sand and walked into the water. Chris and I walked hand in hand, Chris carrying Danielle. She had so much fun.
*~*End Flashback*~*
I remembered it like it was yesterday. I couldn�t help but cry as I drove along. I pulled into Crystal and Lance�s driveway. Police vehicles surrounding the premises. I jumped out of my car and made a B-line for the front door.

(Lance�s POV)

I couldn�t believe her. She wasn�t watching them. 2 kids are missing, and it�s my wife�s fault.
�Crystal,� I said standing up making everybody in the room quiet down. �It�s our fault, you did this.�
�Lance,� An officer said. �She didn�t do this on purpose. Sit down and relax.�
�That was the last thing that I could do. Relax, easy for them to say.� I was so angry I thought I was going to just scream and scream until I woke up from this hellish nightmare.
�Lance,� JC asked. �Are you going to be okay? You look like if we leave you and Crystal alone, that you are going to kill her.�
�I want to,� I said glaring at her. �I just am so mad that she wasn�t watching them.�
�Lance did you happen to think that there were 4 kids here, a house to take care of, and other things to do,� Chris asked getting angry. �She is only human. She had no idea that the girl�s were going to get taken away. If she did, do you think she would have let them go outside at all?�
�No,� I said. �I�m just angry.�
�So am I,� Chris said. �I am so upset, but I don�t blame her.�
