Lizzie's pov

It's been almost a month since he has been MIA. I have been throwing myself into work and spending most of my time with my family and friends. I started to get to know Aubrey who I'm working with on my new project and she is a right laugh. I'm currently in my trailer lying down when I hear knocking on my door.

"Hey Lizzie, thought I'd bring you some lunch." Scar said as I opened my door to her.

"Thank you Scar." I said as I followed her over to the sofa.

"How are you doing?" She asked me quietly.

"Honestly I've been better. I just miss him so much. Everytime my phone goes off I keep thinking it's going to be him." I said as I took my food in my lap.

"I'm sure everything will work out." She reassured me.

"I honestly don't even know if it will anymore. I'm slowly losing hope." I said as I rested my head in my hands.

"Come on. It will be fine. They're doing everything they can." She said as she put both of our food on the table before hugging me. I started to cry on her shoulder as she whispered reassurances in my ear.

"Hey lizzie they need us back on set." I heard Aubrey say as she let herself in my trailer. "Hey are you ok?"

"I'll be out in a bit." I said as I looked at her wiping my face.

"Is this about Y/N?" She asked softly as she sat the other side of me which I just nodded.

"I just want him home." I whispered before crying again. They both wrapped me in a group hug. It felt good to have the support of my friends during this time.

"Hey I'll tell them that you're not feeling well if you want to go home." Aubrey said as she started to get up.

"Thank you Aubrey." I said as I wiped my face. I watched as she walked out before Scar and I started to get our things together. We both made our way over to her car heading home. I can always pick my car up tomorrow. As she drove us both home I just looked out of the window just overthinking everything.

I hated seeing her like this, there's not much that I can do to make her feel better. I get that she's worried about Y/N. I just hope that he comes home soon. I need her to be her usual chirpy self. It wasn't long until we pulled up home. I watched as she got out of the car and made her way straight to the guest room. Rose was at my mums today so it was just the three of us. I walked into the kitchen where I found Colin.

"How's she doing?" He asked quietly.

"I don't know. I don't think she'll be OK until she gets some news about him." I told him as he hugged me.

"What about Dek, why not see if there's anything he can do. Don't forget he might still have some pull with the unit." He said as he rubbed my back.

"You know what? Youre a genius. I'll give him a call." I said as I pulled away to go and check lizzie. When I got to the guest room I saw that she had fell asleep. She had his shirt on the other pillow holding it tightly. I quietly went to unlock her phone to get his number before leaving quietly. When I made my way back to the kitchen I quickly called him.

Dek: hello

Me: hello dek?

Dek: who is this?

Me: it's scarlett, I'm lizzie's best friend.

Dek: oh hey what's up?

Me: I was wondering if there's any way you can get some info on Y/N. It's been a month since we found out that he's been MIA and we haven't heard anything since.

Dek: I'll see what I can do. How is lizzie?

Me: she's not doing good. Shes really upset about not even getting an update.

Dek: well I'll let you know when I find something out OK

Me: thank you dek. It means a lot

Dek: it's OK. He's like a brother to me. I'd do anything for him. So I'll call you back

Me: thank you bye.

After I had finished the call, Colin watched as he sipped his coffee. I sat down at the island with my Head in my hands.

"So what did he say?" He asked me softly.

"He's gonna see what he can find out and he'll call me back." I said as I took a sip of my coffee.

"That's good. Hopefully he'll get some good news for her." He said as he sat down next to me.

"Yeah, I just feel so helpless. I don't know how to help her." I said quietly. We both spent the rest of the afternoon just watching TV on the sofa. Colin decided to get up and start cooking dinner for the three of us. Not long after lizzie came back downstairs and sat beside me resting her head on my shoulder.

"How are you?" I asked already knowing the answer.

"I still feel like shit but you know." She said with a shrug. I was about to say something when my phone started ringing. I quickly answered it.

Me: hello

Dek: hey I've got something. Is lizzie there?

Me: yeah she's here. I'll put you on speaker.

Lizzie looked at me confused until she heard deks voice.

Dek: well I got something

Lizzie: what did you find out?

Dek: well they're following a lead on his unit. Every other one that they had came up empty but this is the last one. They've already moved out so you should hopefully find something out soon.

Lizzie: thank you so much dek

Dek: it's no problem. He'd do the same for me.

Me: well we'll let you know when we know something.

Dek: I'll see yas.

After we ended the call I saw that Lizzie had some hope in her eyes. I was happy to be able to get that for her.

"Thank you Scar." She said as she pulled me in for a hug as we both had tears coming down our cheeks.

"I just wanted to do something for you. I hate seeing you like this." I said into her shoulder. I looked behind her to see Colin with a smile on his face and tears in his eyes.

"Thank you both for everything. It means alot." She said as she pulled away to look at Colin.

"We'll do anything for you liz. I just hope we get some more Good news." He said as he walked over to join us both on the sofa.

We spent the rest of the night eating in a comfortable silence and watching films cuddled up on the sofa until Lizzies phone started ringing.
