I returned Dillon's hug and closed my eyes. It felt nice to have his arms around me, trying to comfort me. However, I knew that things were only going to get worse from here on out.

"This isn't your fault Dillon. Jack is just going to have to accept you."

I told him quietly.

I gently kissed her as I held Abby in my arms. "I promise I'll never hurt you. I love you, Abby."

The phone started ringing as I held onto her, never wanting to let her go.

I heard his phone ringing and sighed. I knew that he should really answer it, but I didn't want him to let go of me at the same time. However, I knew that I shouldn't be selfish.

"You better answer that."

I told him quietly.

I answered the phone. "Hello? Yeah, she's here. It's for you, Abby. They say they've got a message from your parents."

I had no idea what this was all about, but I knew that I would be forever curious if I didn't take the call. I reached for the phone and took it from Dillon. I sucked in a deep breath, let it out and put the phone to my ear.

"This is Abby."

I said into the phone while looking at Dillon.

"Mrs. Deveraux, you're parents are in danger," The voice told her. "If you wish to save them, you must listen very carefully. There is a key to a safe deposit box in one of the packages your mother sent to you recently. Bring it to London in two days and wait in McArthur Park at noon and wait for further instructions."

I could not believe what this person was telling me. This all seemed so sudden and not to mention strange. For all I knew, it was one big trap. I was not about to go all of the way to London when my parents might not even be in any kind of danger.

"Why should I believe you? I need proof that my parents are alive and okay before I go off on some wild goose chase."

I firmly stated. I was an optimist before anything else, so I wasn't going to automatically believe this person.

"Your parents are alive and well," The voice told her. "For now. They're in hiding, which is why they need you to bring the key here. Your brother, however, isn't doing so well."

"Abby?" Jack asked before the phone was taken away.

"Bring the key in two days. Then we start torturing your little brother."

The person hung up the phone, leaving just a dial tone.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, willing myself not to break down and cry. My brother just left the house, how could someone already have him? This was confusing as hell and it made no sense to me whatsoever. However, I couldn't tell Dillon. I had to get the key and head to London. I opened my eyes and looked over at him.

"I'm sorry, but that was one of my friends. She is going through a rough time with her boyfriend, so I needed to go and see her. I hate to cut this short, but she needs me. How about you stop by later?"

I was lying through my teeth, however it sounded really convincing.

"Are you sure?" I asked. "I could come with you if needed some support from someone who's been in a bad relationship."

"Yeah, I'm sure."

I insisted. Dillon most definitely needed to leave because I wasn't going to involve him in this.

"This is a girl matter. I don't think seeing a guy in general will help my friend deal with this."

I added. That was really reasonable if the situation were actually true. I knew that he had to buy it because I most definitely would if the roles were reversed.

"Alright," I said with a sigh. "Can I call you later? Maybe we can get together for dinner and a movie?"

"Sure."

I quickly replied. I would say anything to get him out of my apartment at the moment. I needed to get the key and make travel arrangements to London. The sooner Dillon left, the sooner I could get to that.

"That sounds great."

"I love you too Dillon."

I replied quietly and forced a small smile. I walked him over to the door and opened it up.

"Thanks for stopping by. I'll see you real soon."

"Alright," I said as I walked out the door. "I'll really try to be friendly towards your brother from now on. I want this relationship to last, Abby."

I left and headed back toward my apartment when I saw Jack's car was still out in the parking lot of Abby's apartment, and the door was open. I went to talk with Jack and see if we couldn't reach an agreement when I noticed something red on the seat. It looked like...

"Blood," I said as I started to panic.

The second that Dillon was gone, I shut the door and raced up the stairs. I got the key that the mysterious caller was talking about, raided my stash of cash to pay for the airline ticket and grabbed my purse. I would simply buy the ticket once I got to the airport. The sooner I got to London, the better. I had my credit card to cover hotel expenses once I got there. I quickly packed a suitcase for myself, grabbed my car keys and went downstairs to get my shoes on so I could leave.

I started to panic. I couldn't let Abby see this. I quickly shut the car door and started looking around for a clue, any clue, as to where Jack was. I wasn't too fond of him, but I wasn't about to let him be killed. I found a matchbook on the front seat of his car and looked at the back. It was a pub in London. I'd have to go and check it out on my own. Calling the police might get Jack killed.

I slipped on my shoes and headed out the back of my apartment. I saw Dillon out by Jack's car and stopped in my tracks. I hid around the side of the apartment, out of sight, until he left. Hopefully he would go home soon because I really needed to get to my car.

I left Jack's car after cleaning the blood as best as I could. I found some pictures of him and Abby in the glove box which I might be able to use for asking people if they'd seen him. I headed home and started packing. I was on my way to London.

Once Dillon had left, I rushed over to my car. I quickly tossed my suitcase into the trunk and closed it. I then went around to the driver's side and got in. I started up my car and drove off towards the airport. I couldn't let my parents die, so I was going to do whatever I had to in order to guarantee their safety.

I hated leaving Abby behind without telling her what was going on, but I didn't her to panic. I boarded the first flight to London, hoping to save Jack and maybe show him that I wasn't so bad after all.

As soon as I got to the airport, I boarded the first plane that was heading to London. I couldn't afford to waste any time because the lives of both of my parents and my brother were at stake. I would give this psycho this key that he was so desperate to have and get my family let go. I couldn't afford to try anything with the kidnapper; too much was at stake.

I boarded the plane to London, hoping that Jack wasn't in too much trouble. As much as he annoyed me, I couldn't let him get hurt. I just hoped that Abby would be alright until I got back.

As I sat in my seat on the plane, I closed my eyes and tried to clear my head. I wanted to fall asleep, but I knew that it wouldn't be happening since I was so keyed up right now. I didn't know how I was going to muster up the courage to do this, but I had to be brave for the sake of my family.
