Erin’s P.O.V
I sat on the ground with Hannah hugging her tightly as she gripped Matt’s phone tightly after taking it back and reading the message.
“Shhh it’s alright, everything will be alright” I said and had been going at this for a solid hour or so now when I heard the doorbell and when I opened the door it was Johnny.
“Oh thank god I need some help… Hannah found Matt’s phone here… and there is a message from someone who goes by “R” and… I am not sure whether Matt is cheating or not but you need to see the text” I said and Johnny ran into kitchen reading the text and he was pacing around but suddenly Brent came through the door nearly running with Zack following behind him.
“Oh my god you are okay” Brent said hugging me and I sat there and was really really
confused.
“Umm yeah I have been here with Hannah… why would I not be okay?” I asked and he pulled back and just looked at everyone and then back to me.
“They found Brian’s car on the side of the road it had been hit… but he wasn’t in it.. there was no blood trail… it was like he vanished” Brent said and I just sat there trying to fully process what Brent was saying exactly.
“So you are saying that not only is Matt suddenly gone but my husband disappeared from a car accident?!” I asked nearly verging on freaking out and Zack seemed confused.
“Wait where the hell is Matt he left early today” Zack asked and I just sighed but Hannah stormed over.
“He is off cheating at me Erin!” She said in a harsh tone and Johnny pulled her back handing Zack the phone so that he could inspect it and I just sighed rubbing my head trying to hold onto everything… I did not want to lose my shit right now. I sat on the couch and Brent rubbed my back. Hannah just sat in front of her fireplace twisting her engagement ring around her finger and I just needed some air.
“I am gonna go and get some air… update me if you hear anything” I said to Brent and rubbed his shoulder and walked outside. It was breezy outside and it felt nice. I walked over and into my house and sat at the table for a moment looking at some of the stuff he picked out for his cake at the party. I flipped through the planning book and about fifteen minutes later I decided to head back over but was surprised when I saw Gena
getting out of her car.
“It was on the news… I saw that they found Brian’s car. I just wanted to make sure that you were okay Erin” She said coming forward just a little but wasn’t being pushy like usual. The fact that Hannah was freaking out… I was unsure of how to feel and I just broke down and Gena hugged me and ya know what… I let her.
“Listen I know this must be hard but I am here… I am so sorry that I said all those things Erin… I feel terrible now” She said and I backed away rubbing my eyes and she pushed some of my fallen strands of hair behind my ear.
“Why don’t you let me buy you a coffee in the morning, you can bring Hannah and I will bring Val, we will just make things right… we really were just jealous” She said and I literally just sat there and looked at Hannah’s house and then back at Gena.
“Look… Hannah is going through trouble with Matt right now, so please make sure Val doesn’t say anything that might set her off… it has been horrible getting her to calm down… Matt left his phone at home and some woman texted him.. we are pretty sure that wherever he is it is with her” I said and Gena just frowned a little more.
“My god give her my love, I am so sorry I will warn Val and make sure that we just put everything behind us” Gena said and I hugged her and nodded and she kissed my cheek and walked backed to her car and drove off. I wiped the lipstick from my cheek and Zack and Brent walked out.
“What’s going on?” I asked.
“Well Hannah got a huge migraine so Brent gave her some meds and she is in bed asking for you, Johnny is gonna sleep on the couch so she isn’t alone, she wants to talk before she passes out… you gonna be ok alone?” Zack asked.
“Either way I am gonna stay with her just in case Brian comes home and is hurt” Brent said… yeah cause I didn’t see that coming…
“Fine whatever the door is unlocked, if you hear anything Zack just let me know” I said and walked inside and up to Hannah’s room and sat on the bed while she dozed in and out.
“E I love ya… you’re always here for me” She said and I pulled the hair out of her face and smiled.
“I wanted to talk to you before you get to sleep about the morning” I said and she turned on her side and smiled at me which I knew what the pain killers.
“Anything my love” She said.
“Gena was just outside.. she apologized and I know that we shouldn’t fully trust her and Val.. but they wanna have coffee in the morning and I think it would be good to get stuff out in the open and just maybe clear the air… so get some rest, tomorrow we will get this all figured out” I said to her and she just stared at me for a moment and I could tell that since we were just done with the dinners… things were still really weird.
“I trust you more than anyone right now so if you think that this would be good then fine we will do it, I love you E, try and get some sleep” She said and I kissed her and walked back downstairs waving to Johnny and walked back over to my place and noticed Brent pouring a drink.
“Do you think he is okay?” I asked him leaning against my counter staring out at the lights in the pool.
“He is a tough guy Erin, I am sure everything is fine, now get some rest” Brent said and I just nodded and ran upstairs slowly stripping out of my clothing and letting my hair fall down my back. I looked over and saw my notification light on my phone flashing and saw I had a text from Gena.
Just wanted to say I am here for you Erin, we can’t wait to see you two tomorrow –Gena I read and then put my phone back down and stared at my bed hating the fact that I was going to sleep alone… I just wanted him back.
Brian’s P.O.V
I woke up in a daze… I had a huge headache and things were really fuzzy.. the last thing I remember was being three blocks from home trying to get to Erin after I fucked up all of my solos and was irritated… but my back end was hit.. but there was nothing after. I looked up and saw my hands above my head and I was handcuffed to a pipe.
“Hey man” I heard and looked over to find Matt in the same position.
“What the hell?! Where are we?” I asked pulling on the cuffs a little.
“I was taken by Val.. earlier she found me and was talking about Erin and Hannah and then I woke up here” He said and just after hearing Val’s name I could only guess that they were to blame.. I was livid.
“There is most likely going to be more than this to come… I gotta find a way to get back to Erin and get you home to Hannah… I don’t need any more damage done with 12 days till the part and a month till you get married” I said and he just sighed.
“Somehow… I just know it’s already worse than we know… but from the whispers I have heard.. Erin and Hannah have no idea its them that took us” Matt said… ugh fuck this.. fuck Gena and Val… was it so much to ask for a good life…
I sat on the ground with Hannah hugging her tightly as she gripped Matt’s phone tightly after taking it back and reading the message.
