Tom’s P.O.V

I was driving home from my date with Hope, when my cell phone rang. Reaching in my pocket I pulled it out. "Hello?"

“Yo, Tom, it’s Dylan.” I could tell there was some sadness in his voice, but it was very faint. Hope looked over at me from the passenger’s seat and gave me a quizzical look as to who was on the phone. I mouthed ‘Dylan’ before focusing back on the road.

“Hey, man, what’s up?” I asked as I began to turn down my street. There was a sigh on the other line followed by a clearing of the throat.

“Something has happened,” Dylan stated. I pulled into my driveway and cut off the car. My hand pressed the phone closer to my ear as I waited for him to reply. “I’m not sure on the details, yet, but-”

“Code blue in room 212, code blue!” A female voice said from on the other line. Since my grandmother had been in the hospital a lot when I grew up, I knew exactly where Dylan was.

“Dylan? Why are you at a hospital?! What happened?!” I half shouted with worry seeping into my deep voice. Hope suddenly leaned forward and gave me a raised eyebrow as if to ask ‘what is going on?’ I shrugged my shoulder, for even I didn’t even know.

“Yeah, I’m at a Saint Francis Hospital. Troy is on his way...”

“What is it? What happened?”

“It’s Savvy, she’s been shot,” Just then it felt like the world had stopped. My heart dropped and the blood in my face drained. Consideration of Dylan lying to me crossed my mind, but it all fit. With the worry in his voice and the hospital noise that played in the background. I knew that even if Dylan and Troy didn’t romantically like Savvy, we cared for the girls. They were all like our friends, plus Allen must be there, Troy and Dylan are most likely there consoling him.

“I’m on my way,” with that I clicked off the phone and turned on the car. Hope looked at me and exhaled loudly.

“Honey, what happened?” She questioned in a low voice. My hands gripped the steering wheel tighter for I was angered by the person that dared to shoot my sister, Savvy. I actually wanted to facepalm myself for not asking Dylan what happened and how she got shot. But as of right now my main goal was to get there and make sure she was okay. Then kill the bastard that hurt her. “Honey, speak to me,” Hope softly murmured. I glanced at her and then breathed in and out.

“Savvy has been shot,” a gasp escaped her mouth and she reclined back in her seat. Horror was evident in her expression.

“Is-Is she d-dead?” Hope inquired in a shaky tone. I bit my tongue because that was something I should have asked Dylan. Damn!

“I-I don’t know ... But hey, don’t worry about it. We will be there soon,” I muttered in hopes to calm her down. She released a few tears and shook her head. “I’m fine, just step on it,” Hope told me. With that I pressed on the gas pedal some more and raced to the hospital.

When we reached the hospital I parked in the emergency parking lot. Hope and I hurriedly went to the ER, once in I saw Dylan and Troy sitting down in some chairs that were in the waiting room. I jogged over to them and they looked up at me. “How is she? What is going on?” I panted.

“She is in her room now. They have removed the bullet and the Doc says that she will make it,” just hearing that from Troy made me smile in happiness. She was going to make it! I looked over at Hope and she looked at me with happy eyes. In relief I gave Hope a hug and kiss on her right temple. Soon I released her and turned my attention to Dylan and Troy. It hit me that I had a key question for them.

“What happened? ... How did she get shot?” I managed to request in a neutral tone. They both gazed at each other before looking back at me.

“Tom ... you know how Allen kidnapped Savvy,” I nodded at Dylan’s words. “Well, something happened and Inx showed up ... Inx tried to get Savvy back and threatened to kill Allen with a gun. Savvy got the gun and gave it to Allen ... Allen shot Inx and then something happened ... Savvy stepped in front of Allen and he accidentally shot Savvy on the left side of her abdomen. She lost a lot of blood, but the ambulance and police said that they showed up at the perfect time...” By the way Dylan stopped and looked at Troy I knew they were hiding something.

“You tell him,” Troy spoke. Dylan sighed and gave me a frown.

“There is something else...” Dylan stopped once more.

“Are you going to complete a sentence anytime soon?” I asked. Dylan narrowed his eyes at me.

“Savvy is pregnant, but the baby is fine. They said the bullet missed it by inches. They said that it will live.”

“Pregnant?! What?!”

“Troy and I think it was Inx’s due to them being in a relationship. It’s not a long shot since they were also living with each other for the past month or so...” Dylan spoke in a solemn voice. “Listen, I gotta make a call real quick. be right back.”

“Hey, Hope?” Dylan called out to Hope who looked at him.

“Yeah,” she replied.

“You haven’t by any chance heard from Kay or Maddy ... Have you?” Dylan inquired.

“Wait, you guys haven’t seen Maddy and Kay?” They shook their heads.

“I haven’t seen Maddy since she left my house. She told me that she was going to text me when she got home, but she never did.” Troy told us.

“Last time I saw Kay she was storming out of my room,” Dylan confessed. I rubbed my hand on my forehead as I started to wonder whether this was related to what happened with Hope and me on our date.

“I think someone has kidnapped Kay and Maddy,” I spoke. Both boys looked at me with shock.

“What?! Why do you say that?!” Troy shouted as he stood up in anger.

“Because...” I told my friends what had happened on my date with Hope. “I think the guy was trying to kidnap Hope ... The way he mentioned Hope’s friends ... I just think ... I think something is going on here.” I muttered.

“We should go to the police,” Dylan added. Troy and I nodded.

“Wait; if you go to the police ... Don’t you think the kidnappings will point to you guys?” Hope stated.

“But no one knows that we kidnapped the girls,” I replied. My eyes flickered to Troy and Dylan, “Right?”

“Yeah, I haven’t told a soul,” Troy admitted. We all looked at Dylan, just then I saw a guilt ridden expression on his face.

“Guys ... There is one person that knows we’ve kidnapped the girls. But don’t worry he is my cousin and won’t tell a soul!” Dylan fired.

“Who is your cousin?” I pleaded to know.

“It’s my cousin ... J.G.”
