Falling for the pole dancer

Chapter 12

"Celine everything will be alright, you'll see." Danny said.

"That fucker has been watching us!" Joe exclaimed.

"I'm so sorry Joe, I'm sorry Lisa! If I didn't befriend you guys, you'd be safe." I cried out, Jerry knew how important they were to me and that only put big targets on their backs.

"Oh honey don't apologize, we wouldn't trade your friendship for anything! Right joe?" Lisa asked.

"Of course we wouldn't and none of this is your fault, so don't be sorry. The only person who should be sorry is that creepy son of a bitch!" Joe spat.

"I know we are all quite shaken up by this but don't forget we have twelve year old here." Sylvia said to Joe.

"Sorry Mrs. V" He replied.

"It's all alright. Why don't you both come with me, you guys will be staying here until we know that you are free from harm." Sylvia said to Joe and Lisa.

"That's not necessary." Joe and Lisa said in unison

"No, it's a great idea." I said to them.

"Please, it will be a great relief to me knowing that you two are safe." I told them with pleading eyes.
They both agreed and I stood up to go with them but Caleb suddenly grabbed my arm.

"We need to speak." He said.

I nodded and watched Sylvia lead Lisa and Joe towards the guest rooms.

"I'll head up to my room." Danny said.

"No! You'll stay here. I need to know that you're safe." I explained to Danny.

"Its fine Celine, there is extra patrol around the entire premises. We are all safe." Caleb said

"Yeah. I just want to lie down, I'll even leave my door open." Danny pleaded, I nodded my head and watched him go up the stairs two steps at a time.

I sat down next to Caleb and waited for him to speak.

"How are you?" He asked, I was still in a wretched mood and just gave him a "Are you kidding me?" look.

"How am I? Well let's see, Um I finally feel like I belong somewhere and that everything is smooth sailing but no! Jerry has to take my life in his disgusting hands and fuck it up! How do you think I'm doing?" I exclaimed, I held the bridge of my nose and pulled on my hair.

I felt Caleb move closer to me and I didn't stop him, He pulled my chin to look up at him. Surprisingly instead of being mad at me for exploding on him, his demeanor remained calm.

"It's ok to be mad. I just needed to know what you were thinking. I will see this through and I won't stop looking for that bastard until he's either dead or behind bars!" Caleb said as his jaws flexed. I thought it was caring of him to try to solve yet again another issue of mine but I felt as if Caleb has done enough for me. It was bad enough that because of me he was being targeted as well, if jerry ever hurts him I don't know what I'd do.

"You will be doing nothing, this is my problem and I'll handle it." I said as I caressed his cheek, the anger that lit his eyes cooled down a bit.

"That's where you are wrong, Celine you must take me for a fool if you think I'd let you take care of this on your own.' He said.

"What? You don't think I can handle him myself?" I cried out.

"No you can't! You won't either, I won't let you! Did you see what he did to you last time? You just got your cast removed! If..."

We were both interrupted by the loud slamming of Danny's door and the sound of breaking glass.

I pushed past Caleb and ran up the stairs, "Daniel! Danny!" I yelled as I ran. I reached his door and tried to push it open, but it wouldn't budge. Something was terribly wrong! I pushed but the door didn't move, finally Caleb came and removed his jacket, He pushed the door and when that wouldn't work, he kicked it open. I ran in and found Danny's pillows all over the floor, I picked up a picture of Danny and I off the floor, it was shattered. No signs of Danny! Anywhere!

"Daniel, please tell me your hiding!" I cried as I searched his room, but no one answered my crying calls!

"Caleb do something! He's gone! My brother is gone!" I wailed.

Caleb called the entire team to search the inside of the house and the outside of the house.

.

.

An hour has passed and Danny was nowhere to be found, we called the police and hopefully they'll find him.

Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably, god how I missed Danny! I can't even imagine the fear that must be coursing through my poor brother, I just hope that he's okay and unharmed. If anything were to happen to him... I can't even think of what I'd do.

Kingston came charging out from the office with Brennon and Lockhart close behind.

"Mr. Anderson, There was indeed a message encrypted in the newspaper." He said as he showed us the scarps of newspaper that he managed to put back together.

"LET'S PLAY A GAME! COME AND FIND US. - J."

I believed I could defeat him, but what shall I do now? He had my brother. Jerry had my brother.

"Oh, god" I cried.

My world never came crashing down so quickly, where the hell was Danny?
