"He was never yours, never and even he said so." I said calmly. 

"That's not true we were together I loved him!" She yelled crying.

"So you tried to kill him because he didn't love you back?" I hollered rage pulsating through my veins. 

"Tried, you mean he isnt dead?" She cried.

"No, you think some bullet would stop Colby?" I said angrily. 

"I shot him in the head!" Her voice broke.

"I'm gonna put you through what I went through," I said pushing my blade into her chest but not far enough to kill her, I made a deep 'X' over her heart.

"Alright boys have some fun," I said with a psychotic smile I turned and stood back.

"This isn't just because what you did to Colby," Jason said blankly and stalked towards her and punched her in the face hard enough to make the chair and her flip over.

"Holy shit," Hayley exclaimed covering her mouth and bac

    That is until a knock came to the bathroom door. "Yes?" I called out groggy through the slapping of the water. "Let me know when your ready," she said half asleep. "Okay, I'll be out in a bit." I called out. "Alright, we have to be there by ten." She said once more. "I know, I just need to wash up a bit." I replied. "Do you want some coffee?" She asked. "Yes please," I answered, sinking deeper into the hot water. Decaf is better than nothing. My stomach moved as the baby kicked gently, I rubbed it gently thinking about meeting it for the first time. Will it look like me, or will it look like Colby, or will it look like both of us? I wonder who I looked like, my mother or my father.. Will I ever meet them, do they even know I'm alive? So

    Colby's P.O.V Sitting in the living room I kept scrolling through the same three channels hoping something interesting would come up. "I'm going to go for a drive," I called out as I got up to put on my jacket and go out into the frosty air. "What why?" Chloe called out quickly stalking into the room. "Why not, I feel like I haven't moved in months." I said through a sigh. "Don't be silly," she said with her hands on her hips. "But you can't go daddy!" Adelaide hollard from her bedroom. "I'll be back within an hour," I said thinking they are over exaggerating, as I open the door. Chloe races to the door and right before I can make it out she slammed it shut pulling me back in and locking the door. "I can't let you leave," she said her face full of determination. "Why?" I asked starting to get annoyed.

    About 10 minutes later we finally find one and Hayley backs up and parks, taking off our seat belts we get out of the car and walk to the entrance. A nurse that I recognize quickly walks over to us. "Chloe right, you're here for Colby?" She asked. "Yes, I'm here to see him," I replied. "I'm sorry to tell you this but you can't see him right now, his body went into phylactic shock and is currently having a seizure. If you could take a seat once his body calms down we can let you know and I'll let you in to see him if his body keeps up." She said, placing a hand on my shoulder. "A-A seizure?" I stuttered, I didn't know what that meant but it didn't sound good. "It means his body is convulsing uncontrollably and for now all us doctors can do is make sure his heart doesn't stop." My chest hurt and suddenly I couldn't breathe. Is this wha

    Chloe's P.O.V I told the nurse everything except what we did to Lucey. "You were kidnapped?" She asked, shocked. "What I've been told seems, that way," I replied as we were still sitting on the hospital room floor. "So, are you with someone, are you safe?" She asked worriedly . "I was, until they found me again," I felt small and vulnerable, like the world is just crashing around me and there is nothing I can do about it. "I can call the police, get you a restraining order, I'm your witness and I can vouch for you-that these people are criminals, they belong in jail." She said blabbering on. "Person, only the man is dangerous." I explained. "The woman is accessory to a crime that she helped commit." She said sympathetically. "What happened to me, happened to her too; the life that sh

    Chloe's P.O.V I wiped the tears away from my eyes and walked back to the waiting room where Hayley and Silvia waited for me. He doesn't remember me. "Hey how'd it go?" Hayley asked as I went and took a seat beside her. "He woke up," I said slowly. "That's great, you must be so relieved!" Silvia spoke excitedly. "He… doesn't remember me," I said slowly. "What?" Hayley asked to repeat it again. "I said he doesn't remember me," I explained, upset. "What, why?" She asked outraged. "I don't know, they are looking him over now," responded, numb. "So he has amnesia?" Silvia asked, biting her lower lip nervously. I shrugged. How can he not remember me? Doesn't he love me? Is he going to go back to his parents?

    Colby's P.O.V "Stop the car," I yelled feeling nauseous. Out of shock Hayley hit the break skidding to a stop. "What the hell man are you trying to die?" I opened the door and puked. "Are you okay?" Chloe asked, placing a piece of hair behind her ear and rubbing my back. Twins? "Y-yeah, s-sorry," I stuttered out still choking. "Its okay," she said softly, rubbing my back. "Maybe we should take Colby home and let him rest," Hayley said worriedly. "No, I'm fine." I said choking out as I wiped my mouth off. "-Just need something to drink," I added as I swallowed the rest of the bile in my throat, and closed the car door. "I could go for a drink, too, let's stop by cafe Boujero." Hayley said as she put the car into drive.

    "Don't bull shit me Chloe, we all know you wanted to get back at them as much as possible I just did for you." Hayden said, rolling his eyes. "No, you just made more work for us, they are looking for Lucey's killer and you kidnapped another one of them, you're going to get us caught. "Unchain him," I ordered. "Wait, what? No way!" Hayden replied. I looked at Chloe to agree with me. "Let him down Hayden." Chloe said softly. I walked past all of them and took Chloe by the wrist and pulled her out of the Garage. "Ow Colby easy," Chloe whispered, once we were outside I turned towards her. "What the hell are you running here Chloe," I asked.

    “That’s probably Jason’s fault.” Hayley replied, turning on her turning signal. “Why do you say that?” I asked, furrowing my eyebrows. “Remember before we left when your mom said Jason ‘used’ to be in the military?” She reitterated. “Yeah, what about it?” I asked again, breathing out smoke. “You put a gun in that guy's hands, and all of a sudden he thinks nothing can touch him. He stopped listening to orders and began to be a risk to his platoon. His C.O decided it might be best if he was dismissed from his duties for the past year now, or, should I say, at least before we met you.” She says continuing to drive down the next street. “You’ve known me for eight months now, which means he must have been let go twelve months ago?” I say, keeping an eye on the cop car behind us. “Yeah, give or take that.” She nodded; her blue eyes kept flickering in her rearview mirror. “We are getting close to the grocery store, you think we will pull this off?” “Again, we don’t have much of a cho

    Chloe’s P.O.VI made my way slowly out onto the balcony, I needed fresh air. I haven’t heard from Colby or Jason in hours, and I can’t call them again, but right now I don’t know if any of them are dead or alive.I leaned against the metal bars I could feel the staples in my abdomen pulling, I took a deep breath. I heard the balcony door open and close behind me. “I know there’s a lot of stress right now, but is there anything I can do to ease it a bit?”Hayley questioned, leaning sideways onto the balcony bars, I thought for a moment. “Actually, there mighty be. Call Hayden.” I say, nodding. “Wait, are you sure thats a good idea?” You could hear the doubt in her voice. “Regardless of him not listening to orders, he is still good with combat and a gun.” I said, taking a cigarette from the pack, lighting it between my lips inhaling the smoke.“It's just that, we haven't really heard from him since that night with Lucy.” Hayley trails off.“What are you talking about? He was supposed

    “Are you insane?” I whispered to Jason urgently in my voice.“We gotta get rid of them.” He whispered back.“No, keep your head down and keep your mouth shut. They'll leave, just watch.” I nodded toward the men around the corner.Sure enough they continued to walk, a phone started going off.“Yeah, what?” One of the boys said.“We were just about finished our rounds.” He continued, we couldn't hear who was on the other end.“Yeah, no sight of Colby yet.”“What's he saying?” The other guy beside him asked.“We gotta do another round.” The one on the phone replied.“You gotta be joking.” the other commented.I looked at Jason, his hand around the butt of the gun, it was like he was just itching to spill blood.“Wait, you want us to meet you where? –Yeah alright Jasp, yeah old gas station? Okay, yeah we will meet you there.”My blood ran cold, and I looked at Jasper's face, it looked as if the blood ran from his face, he was as pale as a ghost. Jasper, is on their side?I could hear their

    Chloe's p.o.v A part of me knew, the last I know the better but not knowing was slowly driving me crazy. “Chloe dear, you must calm down.” My mother says sitting on the edge of the couch in our livingroom. Hayley was in the kitchen making tea, I on the other hand is pacing the room, I told the police half truths meaning they were also half lies and thinking about that is making me anxious. “I can’t.” I say biting the nail on my thumb. “Okay but can you at least sit down, you gave birth only six hours ago, if you keep pacing like this you will rip your stitches. “I don’t care about the stitches, I care about my family coming back safe.” I realized I said that more harshly then I intended, so I sat down in the chair beside the coffee table. “I know how terrifying this is, your father didn’t want to wait for the police to bring you home either.” She says softly. I looked down and bit my lower lip before speaking. “Why did you?” “We had your brother to care for too, we couldn

    All I heard over the phone was nothing but a click indicating she hung up, I sighed and pulled a harsh corner off of the freeway and onto a street. Continuously looking in my rearview mirror seeing if I lost them yet, nope red and blue lights shined brighter as the afternoon was turning to evening. "In Hayley's shitty car I don't think we are going to lose them." Jason says, annoyance filled his voice and I pressed on the gas as hard as it would let me. You could hear the thumping of the engine and the steering wheel was almost impossible to control, veering side to side as if I had a few too many to drink but I still held on. As I said before nothing will get in my way, not even these law abiding cops who didn't learn when to quit. There was a voice of the cop in the magnaphone. "Pull over or we will shoot." I didn't obey, I didn't stop or slow down. I had to get there and soon because if I don't kill us, Chloe will if I don't bring the twins home safe and sound, I wouldn't sto

    There were neatly lined cans of soup on the shelf. He could make a run for it. When I was close enough, I gazed over at Jason, knowing what I was thinking. He nodded, letting me take the lead. "Hurry the fuck up, I don't have all day!" He kept eyeing the door. If at any moment he'll get caught by the cops red handed, and here they don't ask questions, they shoot first. The woman behind the cash opened the drawer, taking out the bills, fifties, twenty's, tens and fives, tears soaking her cheeks, hiccuping her panicked sobs. I stood up and grabbed him into a headlock. Any wrong move. I could break his neck with one twist of my arm, if inevitable. The man tried to free himself from my grasp, cashier was screaming and cowering with her hands protecting her head. He shot off the gun twice missing me by a quarter of an inch and the second just whizzed past the cashier's head as the glass casing behind her smashed into splintering shards everywhere, she screamed in fear and pain when g

    Chloe's P.O.V I stood there breathless as I went face first into a police officer's chest. I stepped back trying to hold back the surprise, letting him into the room. "Are you the woman with the missing babies?" I can't lie or I'd be seen as an accomplice. "Yes I am." Letting worry fill my voice, my hands laced together anxiously. "When was the last time you saw them?" The more brute officer asked, his hand lazily on his gun holt. I eyed my mother for support before answering. "I, I didn't." Something hard was in my throat, something I couldn't swallow. "You don't know?" The man asked, raising a condescending eyebrow and folded his arms. "She was out cold, they were born prematurely due to unforeseen circumstances." My mother says, coming to my rescue, and wrapping her arm around my shoulders. "Is this true?" The man didn't seem to believe me, what mother would lie about their child? "Officer, I would never lie about my babies going missing, instead of asking so many que

    Chloe's P.O.V That wretched woman has twins, and I remember the first time I met her, she was almost as bad as Alistair. Her white curly hair and barely wrinkled face made me shiver. She used to tell Alistair to beat me more, that I had to learn more discipline, and show more respect. Everyday she stayed I had gotten beat at least once a day and instead of my meals once a day I got food maybe once every three days that month. I remember the fight Carolynn and Alistair had the last night she was around, it was the first time Carolynn stood up for me, at the time I didn't really understand why I was getting hurt and barely fed, I was only four or five at the time. I held Hayley's phone tightly in the palm of my hand seething with anger, any tighter the screen would crack. "Chloe, are you alright dear?" I turned towards the woman who gave birth to me. "No, and until they are safe I won't be." I admitted, passing Hayley her phone back. My mother nodded, if anyone could understand

    The streets filled with the sound of screeching tires and the smell of burning rubber, into the alley. Three cars, a silver Nissan, a white Toyota and one I wasn't expecting, a red mustang. The red mustang was my brothers and that didn't make sense to me. I stopped just short enough not to hit the Nissan, and two men came out. Camino, and Dee. The two out of three triplets that worked for my father, the only difference between the three is that Camino has a deep scar straight across his chubby face. He came up to my window and I rolled it down. "Damn it Colby what the fuck are you driving?" Camino questioned as he spat chewing tobacco over his shoulder. "Where are they Camino?" I asked, as I got out of the car. "I don't know what you're talking about man." Camino says moving his tongue over his teeth getting off the sticky tobacco. "You're a fucking lier." I hollard making my way to the abandoned unit behind him. "We can't let you in Colby, boss's orders." Dee says placing a
