"Jesus H Christ Mike, you're gonna crash the damn truck." Addy laughs as she grips the door, but I don't slow down as I weave through the traffic.

"You said the gate closes in 20 minutes, hope you're ready to run." I smirk. As soon as the debriefing was done I got Addy to check for flights back to North Carolina and she managed to get two tickets for the next flight, but if I want to make it we've got to make a run for it.

The first thing I did when we got back from our mission was text Cammy, then I tried to call her, but there was no answer. I'm sure it's just because she's working, but there's a feeling in my gut that isn't sitting quite right with me. I just need to see her and hold her in my arms, then I'm sure I'll be fine.

"How's my favourite sister?" Addy smiles answering her cell phone and I know it's my sister Scarlett

"Yeah, as long as Mike doesn't cause a pile up on the way we'll be on the next flight." She says, shooting me a glance as I take the exit, flying down the ramp a little too fast, but I keep control.

"Huh, really?" She asks quietly turning away from me. I knew it, something is wrong. I can't make this damn truck move any faster and it's times like this I wish I could just commandeer a helicopter or a jet to take me where I need to be a hell of a lot faster.

"See you soon, love you." Addy says ending the call

"Tell me." I bark

"What?" Addy asks innocently looking around at the traffic

"Addy." I warn

"Your girl called out sick to work last night, didn't go to the garage yesterday or today and although her car is on her driveway, she isn't answering the door or her cell." Addy sighs

"Fuck!" I curse slamming my fist on the steering wheel

"Get Scarlett back on the phone and tell her to break down the door." I order

"Mike, maybe she's resting, has the flu or something simple, no need to break down doors." Addy replies, I try to argue but she holds her hand up

"We'll be there soon enough, you can break her door down yourself if you want." Addy huffs.

We rush through the airport and make it to the gate just as they're closing, luckily with some charm they let us board. My knee bounces restlessly as I mentally plead for take off to hurry the fuck up

"I missed you too." Addy smiles as she talks to her man Doc, making me feel even worse I haven't spoken to Cammy. What if she's hurt? What could've happened to her? She hates to call out of work, it must be something bad to keep her from both jobs for two days.

"We'll meet you there, love you." Addy says ending the call

"Chris will meet us at Cammys house, just in case." Addy reassures me
