"alright..." Wilbur clapped his hands together, "then theres someone else you have to meet."

-----------------------------------------

Claire opened the door letting Niki in and grabbing her coat. 

"Thank you again, Niki." she said, showing her the room, but there was no one in there.

"Where's Oliver?" Niki asked, walking up behind her, getting out her medical supplies already. There was a sent of cinnamon coming from her as she just finished baking

"oh he should be-" she stopped in her tracks once she saw an empty bed. "-here..." the last words that came out of her mouth where thin and breathless. She already started to imagine the worst as she threw niki's coat back at her. "hurry up, Wilbur could be doing something terrible." 

Niki nodded and put her coat on, following Claire out of the house. "Let's separate. You look that way and I look in the direction of my office. Blow this whistle if you find something." Claire said, handing Niki a whistle. Niki nodded and started looking. Claire sighed, growing as fast as possible and looking for clues. 

-----------------------------------------

Wilbur and Oliver climbed back through the window of Claire's house, Wilbur out of breath and Oliver just staring blankly into nothingness. they had to run as fast as they could before they get spotted by the wondering girls who set out to look for them.

Wilbur set him back on the bed and sat down next to him."Don't. Tell. Anyone." Wilbur said, the other nodded. "We should stay here. We don't know when they'll return"

Oliver wanted to either punch wilbur in the face or roll his eyes. Sometimes the man was painfully obvious or stupid, acting as if Oliver was some small little kid who was learning about numbers in maths. 

-----------------------------------------

"ughhh" Claire groaned, they looked for the two of them for over half an hour, and still no end in sight! She wondered if Oliver was ok...or what they were doing or if something happened to them...

She blew the whistle two times as to signal for Niki and her to meet back where they started. Niki blew two times as well as a sign she understood.They both met at the office. 

 "found nothing?" Niki asked. Claire shook her head, sulkily.

The door opened and Wilbur came out once he heard the sound of two familiar voices. He looked 'surprised' at both the girls standing there, quickly shoving them inside.

"c'mon, we have a dying child! Can't you hurry up for once?"

"Wilbur what the fuck?" Claire said, throwing her coat on one of the chairs. "you weren't here like 30 minutes ago!" 

"You're just paranoid." Wilbur rolled his eyes, "me and oliver were waiting for you to come!"

"Maybe we wouldn't be so paranoid if you weren't starting to become crazy." Claire shot Wilbur an angry look. 

 Niki decided to actually someone responsible and went up to Oliver. "Are you ok with me looking at your wounds?" she asked him, trying her best to ignore the two arguing.

Oliver tensed up when she came close.

 "GOING MAD? You're the crazy one! I'm the only won here who actually knows what to do, and I'm being called mad here! Fantastic!" Wilbur barked back at her.

"Excuse me?! Wilbur, you're the same person Tommy has been writing DAILY to me about! THE ONE WHO PLANS TO FUCKING BLOW THIS SHIT UP?! I was hoping I would not have to confront you about this and that you would tell me yourself, not lie all the time. And with that said, I can also say I will not befriend a liar. " Claire said, opening the door." it's either you leave, or I do. "

"oh claire...." wilbur laughed, "so hopelessly naive. How petty." Wilbur came closer to her. "I see it in you. I can hear it in your voice. You're trying to act as if you know what you're doing, so that you could prove me wrong. But you're scared Claire. And I completely understand! It's a scary world, but you know what? When a man has nothing to lose? y'know what that means?" Wilbur bent over and whispered in her ear. "it means we can do whatever we want"

Claire laughed. "trying to intimidate me, huh?" she smirked. "That won't work on someone like me Wilbur. Some people have a bad day. For me, it's been months, maybe years. Intimidation works on someone who has something to loose. For me, I don't care if I prove you wrong or not, I don't have anything to loose anymore. " Claire started getting out." as soon as you're done leave, Niki. " Claire said, closing the door and leaving. She was heading towards Tommy.

Wilbur's face fell at bit, but soon he straightened up and snorted at the girl who just left. He turned towards Niki and with a threatening tone said "get the fuck out".

when niki was about to protest, he got even more mad. "Niki, i said, GET THE FUCK OUT"

at this, Niki decided to drop her attempts in arguing. She packed all of her stuff and was about to leave, but turned around to face him. "wil, i don't know what you're trying to achieve here, but whatever it is I hope it's worth it, because you're just a selfish git who doesn't care for anyone but himself. Let faith be with you."

she slammed the door shut right in front of him.
