Talia's parents left for Mexico, leaving Talia behind worried about her sister and worried about her parents. She didn't have a good feeling about this and paced around her living room wondering if she should go to Mexico as well. She needed someone to talk to and tried getting a hold of Ryker.

With no luck getting a hold of him she called Andrea and filled her in on what was going on. Talia, your dad will find her, there is no need to go out there. It's not a good area to be right now and I would be sick to my stomach worrying about you.

"You should have seen this guy she brought over to my parents, he looked evil. I had a bad feeling about him and I don't trust him. Nobody knows anything about him... something isn't right."

I'm coming over...

Talia tried calling her sister again while she waited for Andrea to come over, she got frustrated when it went to voice mail right away. She started to shake as she feared the worst, and feared for her parents.

Talia made herself some coffee and sat down at the table, she knew that there was nothing that she could do and wished that she would have talked with her sister more often than she had been. Salina was four years younger than her, she recently had just turned twenty one and was out partying most of the time, making no time to spend with Talia.

By the time Andrea got over to Talia's place, Talia was in tears. Andrea put her arms around her giving her a hug "I'm here for you, you know."

"I know.."

"Have you heard from anybody yet?"

Talia sat down wiping away her tears shaking her head as she blew her nose. "No.. I haven't heard from anyone. Nobody answers their phones, I'm lost in the dark about everything."

"Your dad is smart, he will find her."

"The problem is I honestly feel that this guy my sister is with is dangerous, you didn't see him that night. The way he was treating her was just off, the weird thing is that Salina didn't seem to care how he was treating her and to do it in front of my parents was really weird. You would think the first time meeting someone else's family you would act completely different than the way he was."

"Hmm."

"I even noticed Ryker watching him that night, at least Ryker made a good impression, this guy Topher is bad news. I just know it.

"Topher?"

"Yea I know, the name is different."

Andrea giggled "It's not Topher Grace is it?"

"No. This isn't funny Andrea, I know you're trying to make light of it all but I'm telling you, something is wrong."

"OK I'm sorry... well it's a Friday night, why don't we go out to the club and have some fun. Get our minds away from everything and have some fun." She said with a half smile.

"I don't know, I'm not so sure I'll be able to have any fun when my mind will be thinking about them the whole time." Talia sighed.

Andrea wasn't going to take no for an answer and continued to urge her to go. "Fine.. I need a shower then."

"Good, go shower and let's go have some fun, tear the night up." She giggled. She then looked around and noticed all the pictures of Dante were taken down and smiled. "About time you took all the pictures of that asshole down."

Talia giggled "Yea.. Ryker did it."

Andrea had to laugh "I knew I liked him for a reason."

"I was going to, he saw them up and offered to help, so I let him."

"When is he coming back anyways?" Andrea yelled out when Talia walked away to get ready.

"I have no clue, he says he ran into some issues with work and wasn't sure how much longer he would be out there." She says peaking around the corner "I just wish he would come home, it's not the same with him gone."

At the nightclub, Andrea had Talia out dancing on the dancefloor having a good time. Any guy that went up to Talia asking to dance she immediately turned away. "Ryker isn't here, you could still dance with someone. We're just out having fun and it's not like you are doing anything bad."

"It's like cheating."

"How? It's not like the two of you are official, and it's only dancing. You're not making out with them, and you don't need to exchange phone numbers. We're just two girls out having fun, girls night." She smiled pulling her up off the chair when Talia sat back down.

"Sorry Andrea, I just can't."

"You know that I'm not for cheating, otherwise I wouldn't have told you about Dante, I love Ryker and believe he is the right guy for you. I'm just trying to get you to have fun is all. Nothing more."

Andrea pulled her to the dance floor again and danced with her, enjoying making the other guys around them drool as they playfully danced together. Both giggling, until Talia felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around quickly and her heart dropped.

"Dante?" She slurred.

Andrea noticed him and started shoving him "Go away Dante, she doesn't need you."

Dante grabbed a hold of her hands pushing her to the side and moved back towards Talia. "Dance with me." He insisted, Andrea looked at Talia and pointed to her telling her no with her finger.

"We're over Dante, please leave me alone." She said as she turned to walk away. As the music started with the next song he pulled Talia to him and held her tight, holding her tighter when she tried getting away from him.

"I made a mistake and I want you back." He said leaning into her ear. She slapped him when he tried placing a kiss on her lips.

"Don't you ever try doing that again, you lost me for good." She says raising her voice pointing her finger in his face. She was able to get free and left him standing there as he rubbed the side of his face.

"Let's get out of here." Talia insisted as she approached Andrea.

They stood outside and waited for their ride to show up "Talia please talk to me." She heard from behind her.

Andrea turned around, when she saw that it was Dante she grabbed onto Talia's hand and started to pull her away from him. "I suggest you let me talk to her." He said angrily.

"Leave us alone Dante, she's got a new man that is one hundred times the man that you are. Now leave her alone." Their ride showed up and Andrea quickly pulled her to the car urging her to get in.

"What the fuck." Andrea snapped. "Who the fuck does he think he is? He hasn't been around in months, he hasn't talked to you... and then he shows up here trying to swoon his way back into your arms?"

Andrea was pissed, her buzz from the alcohol quickly started to fade away. Talia leaned her head against the window and looked out the window watching the world go by "Can this day get any worse?" She asked quietly, ready to break down.

"How did he know where to find you?"

Talia shrugged her shoulders "I have no clue, I haven't talked to him since we broke up."

"You're coming to my house, we both don't work tomorrow and I have stuff at home that we can drink."

Andrea turned some music on when they got to her place, going into her kitchen she pulled out a couple glasses and made them a couple drinks. She was still trying to make sure her mind kept away from thinking about her family for the night and now she had to make sure she didn't think about Dante.

Andrea turned the music up a little louder and got Talia to dance around, they drank some drinks, did some shots and talked until they both passed out.

Talia woke up the next day on Andrea's couch with a pounding headache. She sighed as she tried to turn her body to lay on her back holding her forehead. "Fuckkk." She moaned out. She stared at the ceiling trying to remember the night.

Andrea was still sleeping, Talia had to laugh when she looked over and saw Andrea halfway laying on the ground with her legs up laying on the chair. Last thing she remembered was the two of them dancing in the living room.

Andrea groaned a little as she was starting to wake up, it hurt to laugh but Talia did anyways as she held her head. "Wake up Andrea." She giggled a little.

"My fucking head hurts."

"Mine too, I need some coffee or something." Talia said sitting up. She slowly got up and went to the kitchen looking for coffee to make them.

"What a night." Talia heard Andrea groan. Andrea giggled when she finally opened her eyes and saw how she was laying. She got up and and headed for the bathroom, looking for some tylenol or advil to take.

She walked into the kitchen and handed Talia a bottle of tylenol "Would you like some?"

Talia took a couple pills and poured them each a cup of coffee. "I think I've had enough to drink for a while. I haven't drank like that since I was first legal to drink I think." Talia giggled taking a sip of coffee.

"Where's my phone?" Talia asked when it hit her that she missed her nightly call from Ryker. Andrea shrugged her shoulders while Talia looked around.

She found her phone stuffed in the couch when Andrea called it. She had missed a couple calls from Ryker, had a voicemail from him but that was all, nothing from her sister and nothing from her parents.

She listened to Ryker's message and smiled, then felt sad when she hadn't heard a word about her sister. "Something isn't right Andrea." She sighed.

"I'm sure everything is OK, I'll bet your parents are out looking for her right now and you'll get a phone call from them telling you that they found her. I'm sure it will take some time to locate her."

"I hope so, I just can't fight these bad vibes I'm getting."

"You're thinking the worst, and that's the worst thing that you can do.. think positive."

Arlo and Amelia searched Tampico for a few days trying to find their daughter, showing pictures of their daughter as they stopped each person asking if they had seen her. With no luck they decided to take a break and get something to eat.

They were eating their meal looking at a map, crossing off areas that they had checked already. They then heard a bunch of racket and yelling, instincts kicked in and Arlo had Amelia go underneath the table.

"Escuché que estás buscando a Salina?" Arlo heard a guy yelling behind him, quickly turning his head when he heard his daughters name.

Arlo understood a little Spanish but didn't know how to speak it very well. "Si señor la has visto?" Arlo asked as his heart was racing, he still held onto Amelia wanting her to stay under the table, he didn't trust this guy and by the looks of him he really didn't trust him.

"¿Puedes hablar inglés? Mi español esta un poco oxidado." Arol questioned nervously.

"Si señor, I know a little." He spoke broken up, and not very friendly. "Tú y tu esposa vengan conmigo."

"What?" Arlo asked understanding the word you.

"You and your wife come with me." He says pulling on Arlo's arm, he looked under the table as he held onto Arlo "Get up." Amelia crawled out from under the table, scared and could barley walk as her heart was pounding, feeling as if it were to explode, her legs were weak as the man held onto Arlo and Amelia, walking them out of the restaurant.

The man shoved the two of them in the back of a run down van, it was dark and they could not see who was driving as it was all blocked off.

"Arlo, I'm scared. Where are they taking us?" Amelia asked breathing heavily, scared out of her wits and trying to refrain from crying.

"Amelia, shh. They obviously know where Salina is and they don't want us to see where they are taking us." He whispered as he reached his arm out, moving over to her and holding onto her tight, kissing the side of her head. "I've got you, the more we show them that we're not scared, the better off we are."

Hope you enjoyed the chapter. Are the men bringing Arlo and Amelia over to Salina? Are they in some sort of trouble?🤔🤔🤔🤔
