Jared stood behind Jason along with Ty in what he had deemed as the most boring meeting of his entire life. The guy that they were meeting was someone that they had been doing business with for years. Now the guy was scared shitless at the thought that they would be working with Tom. Even though Jason had already told him that they had no intention of doing any shipping from Tom the guy just did not buy it.
He kept saying that "He has ways of getting what he wants."
That sent a chill up Jared's spine - he wanted Olivia. Actually he wanted Raven but since they were one and the same the details didn't matter. Jared would die before he let the psycho get a hold of her. He really wanted this meeting to hurry up and get over so he could get home to his new wife and daughter. He wondered briefly when he began to think of them as a source of his happiness. Before they came along his life was barren. He concentrated only on his work and what little family and close friends that he did have. He had always figured that he would never have a kid but after Olivia being open to the option to the point of condoms not being mentioned before or after them making love. It was like someone had uncovered the sun for him. He knew he would have a child and at the rate that they were going they would have their first baby by the time they celebrated their first anniversary. His phone began to buzz in his pocket interrupting his thoughts of what their baby would look like. He walked away from the group and looked at the screen, he had every intention of pushing the ignore button but say "Olivia" on the caller id. "Sweetheart I am little busy right now..."
"Chloe's gone Jared!"
"What do you mean she's gone?"
"Tom, he took her, the twins and another little boy that they were playing with! Jared you have to get them back – they're all just babies, innocent babies!"
"Where are you?"
"Gym-4-Kids still, the manager has called the police already. Jared? He left me a note."
"We'll be there in 5 minutes. It's okay. We'll get them back."
"Jared there is one more thing - the other little boy..."
"We will find him also - don't worry."
"No Jared his mom is Callie. Callie Donavan. The little boy is 5 years old."
Jared pulled the phone away from his mouth and let loose a string of curses then he pulled the phone back down to his mouth. "Does she know that you're married to me?"
"She does now. Jared, Tom knows who she is. That's why we even found out because he told us in the note to ask."
"Tell her if she moves I'll hunt her down and then she'll wish she never ran the first time let alone the second time."
"Jared! Don't threaten her! She's in this with us - like it or not."
"Fine just keep her there and I'll do my best to ignore her." With that he hung up. He looked up at Jason, "We got to go now!" With that Jason, Ty, Jared and Jerry left the meeting.
As they got out to the trucks the other three stopped and looked at Jared, "We have to get to that inside playground that Laysea and Olivia took the kids to."
"What happened?" asked Jason.
"Tom made a strike against us - he kidnapped the twins and Chloe."
Fury showed on Jason's face, "That son of a bitch dies! Jerry you take a group..."
"Jerry needs to come with us." Jared interrupted.
"Why do I need to go with you?" Jerry asked looking at Jason and Ty who both wore the same confusion.
"Because there was another kid taken with ours."
"You want me to hit on the mother? Seems kind of crazy and all."
"Let's just go!" With that they all got into the trucks and took off.
Back at the gym...
"Okay they're on their way here." Olivia told the other two women.
Callie stood there with a worried looked on her face as she rang her hands together. "How did Jared take it?"
Olivia sighed, "He said don't leave or he'll find you. Look Callie you have to own up to the past."
"Yeah we'll stand by you - trust me they'll not hurt you."
"I don't honestly know which one I fear more." Callie whispered.
"The important thing right now is to get the kids back." Laysea said, "Besides do you know any other bunch that can get it done faster?"
Callie gave her a weak smile, "You're right - I want my son back bad enough to even confess to... well those guys to get him back."
The police began to show up when an officer came up to the three women, "My name is Detective Russell, I will be asking you several questions in order to help try to locate your children. First off can I have the children's names?"
"My twin's names are Dylan and Trista DeGeo..."
"Wait - are these Jason DeGeo's kids?"
"Uh, yeah." Laysea replied with a look on her face that she thought the guy was a moron.
"Oh, okay hold on and I'll be right back." The detective turned and ran back out to the car grabbing the handset to the radio.
That was when black SUV's began to pull up in abundance. Everyone but the drivers seemed to jump out before the trucks came to a complete stop. Ty stopped and talked to the detective as Jared and Jason rushed into the building followed closely by Jerry. Jason pulled Laysea in his arms and gave her a kiss and a hug when he pulled back he put his hand on her protruding stomach and asked, "Are you and the baby okay?"
"Yes Jason except that someone stole my other babies!" She said as tears began to fall down her face and she was unable to stay calm anymore.
"I know we will get them back, I promise." He swore to her.
"Now Jason! Get them back NOW!"
"Baby we already have our people out looking right now."
When Jared got to where Olivia still sat on the bench with her head in her hands, he sat down beside her and rubbed his hand down her hair. "Sweetheart? We'll get her back."
