"Savanna, I'm sure they are ok" Ron attempts at calming me down.

"How do you know though!" I exclaim, going back to my previous motion, of disintegrating my finger nails.

"Please, just sit down and do something that isn't pacing" he stresses, "it will only make you more nervous.

"How the hell am I suppose to calm down when my boyfriend and best friend are out there with hell knows who, hell knows where!" I shout, finally letting out what I intended to keep bottled up.

Usually Ron would get on me for yelling, but this time he simply sighs, replying calmly.

"You are over reacting savanna, I'm sure Zach and Mikey are fine"

"But what if Greg took them, then what?" I ask, pursing my lips, my hand on my hip.

Ron inhales deeply, "then honestly I don't know. I don't no what that man is capable of, or why he wanted to see those boys so bad" he inquires.

"And what about Zach and Mikey's rooms, they were both a huge mess, that neither one could have caused by there slevs" I remind him.

Ron sighs, "I already put out a alert, notifying the police of our situation, they said that these two could have simply run away, and to call back If there not back in 2 days" he fesses.

"2 days!" I yell "a lot could happen in two freaking days! What if they are with greg ! Then that's two freakin days of hell for them! They have each already been threw so much and don't need that shit bag making it worse" I yell, letting more tears escape.

Its been 5 hours sense the boys last disapperd, yes that means its 2 in the morning.

I am currently pacing around my uncles office.

Two days.

I can't wait two days to know if they are ok, If Zach's ok.

I need to no now.

Because if they are with greg, I would never be able to forgive myself.

I told Zach he could trust me, that he would never have to go threw that shit again, never have to relive his past.

But here I am 2 months later pacing around like a lunitic, that promise slowly breaking.

I hope they just ran away, blow off some steam, smoke pot, or whatever Mikey and Zach do.

I hope we don't have to wait 2 days to notify the police.

I really hope it doesn't have to come to that.

I love them both so much.

"Savanna" a voice rings, I turn around to face Jake.

"What, Jake" I say, not able to hide the stress in my voice.

"Eli told me that Zach and Mikey are gone" he repeats Elis supposed words, his eyes growing wide.

I inhale shakily, simply nodding, not able to speak.

"Do you know what happened to them" he asks.

"No" I say, wiping a tear with my cardigan sleeve.

"Aw are you crying?" He asks, furrowing his eye brows.

"N-no, I'm fine" my voice cracks, betraying me.

A look of pity flashes across Jakes face

"I just hope there ok" I whisper, knowing my voice will just betray me again.
