It's been a couple days, no weeks. It's been a couple weeks since I've seen the Buchanans together. It's only Tom and Patty and I can't even imagine Y/N sitting at the dining table with us whenever I'm invited.

"Where's mommy?" Patty would ask.

"Our on a business trip" her father would lie.

It hurt to watch my neices eyes go blank as she stares at her food that's been there for a good ten minutes. I would excuse myself and head home immediately. I would always see Y/N's car parked at Shawns house uninvited.

Then it hit me. Shawn is a wanted man now. Not only from Mr. Buchanan himself but non other than Mr. Wolfshire, a bootlegger that worked along with Mendes for the longest time now.

Shawn stopped throwing the extravagant parties and his curtains were always closed. It seemed empty yet there were more secrets filled in that house than you could count. Dreadful.

I sighed as I sat on my porch sipping my tea and read the newspaper. I was off to work in about an hour or so to my regular job as a banker. Interesting as it sounds all I do is take calls all day. I looked up to see Mendes walking around looking at all his flowers in the front yard.

"Warburton!" He shouted waving me over.

I smiled and cleared my throat setting my tea and paper on my chair and making my way over to him.

"How are you old sport? Beautiful day isn't it!" He chuckled.

I smiled and nodded not saying anything.

"How bout you and I take the boat out huh it'll be wonderful!" He said holding my shoulder.

"I'm sorry Shawn, I can't-"

"Awe come on! It's be fantastic. I'll get some food and bottle of wine-"

"Really Shawn I can't, I have to go to work" i chuckled.

He sighed and nodded.

"Well alright old sport alright"

"I'll call you!" I said walking backwards to my house.

"I'll be waiting"

And sure enough he did. He waited all day hopefully for his telephone to ring. He told me he'd go for a swim and ask Henry to bring out the phone. He told me he's waiting for a call for Y/N and I. It made me nervous because he said that she's thinking about running away with him.

I shook my head at the thought and quickly dialed his number. It rang a couple of times and I heard him pick up but a gunshot went through my ear instead of a nice "hello".

"Hello?!" I asked worried.

"Hello?!?" I shouted louder.

It just buzzed the whole time and I waited for Shawn to say something but nothing did come through that small mouth piece, absolutely silent.
