Missing

Michael's POV

"What are you doing here? Your supposed to me in rehab" Joesph looks at me confused. "I came to get Leanne, I'm not letting you send her away" I frown shaking my head. "What are you talk..."

"I'm not here to discuss it. I came here to get Leanne and that's it. Is she upstairs?" I cut her off and make my way upstairs.

"Michael wait. I need to tell you..."

"W-where is?" I cut my mother off looking around the room and all her stuff is gone. "How could you do this!" I snap then start crying "You had no right to do this" I sob. "What are you talking about? Did what?" Janet frowns confused. "You didn't tell her?" I turn to my mother and she doesn't answer "she came to see me today and said she was gonna send Leanne away and have her sent to another family"

"How could you do that!?" LaToya gasps "she hasn't sent her anywhere. We were planning to speak to her about it after dinner" Joesph cuts in. "THEN WHERE IS SHE!?" I snap "Michael, calm down. She's probably just gone out" Janet tried to calm me "then why is all her stuff gone!?" I snap "she must have heard us talking about it earlier" mother's sighs. "And what exactly did you say?" I frown. "We agreed to speak to her after dinner and I was telling your father about me coming to see you and told you about it and what you said"

"And she heard that? Did she hear you say I told you no?"

"She may not have heard anything. She's not even here so she must have gone out before I got home" she shrugs "and took all her stuff with her!? When was this?"

"Before dinner. About 2 hours ago" she shrugs "you didn't even bother to check on her!?" I snap and try and call her and I hear her phone ringing in the draw. "Why don't we all just try and calm down. I'm sure she's ok" LaToya says calmly "She over heard THESE TWO saying nobody wants her here and she's  been gone two fucking hours and not one of you even noticed she was gone!" I yell "w-What if she's gone back there!?" I panic. "Of course we want her here and she wouldn't go back to that place" Janet shakes her head. "Why not? She did last time" I shrug and I explain what happened the morning after Leanne told me everything.

"I'm calling the police" mother says taking out her phone. "We can't call the police" Joesph says taking her phone from her. "We tried that the first time and it made things worst for her so if we call again and she is there then it could put her in serious harm"

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!" I scream at my mother and start throwing and smashing everything in the room. "MICHAEL! just calm down!" Janet says grabbing my arm. "Maybe she isn't there. She could have just as easily gone back to your house. She has a key to get in right?" She says and I nod. "Then let's go there and check before getting all worked up like this"

"You better hope she's gone home" I frown at my mother as I walk back downstairs, followed by the others.

Janet's POV

We're in the car and the whole drive Michael had been trembleling and one second he's screaming at everybody and the next he just breaks down crying. I've never seen Michael act like this and it's actually scaring me. "Can't you drive a little faster!?" Michael snaps at Joesph "What do you want me to do? Drive the other cars off the road!?" He snaps back. "If you have to YES!"

"Michael, just calm down. Your father's driving as fast as he can" mother says from the front passenger seat. "This is all your fault" he scoffs and she doesn't say anything for a moment.

"Maybe she wanted to leave" she mumbles. "What are you talking about? She wanted to stay with me, but thanks to you she probably thinks I don't want her anymore! That's why she ran away. Because of you!" He frowns. "Well no offence Michael, but Leanne does have a habit of telling you one thing and meaning the exact opposite. For all you know this could have been a setup this whole time"
