Jake heard Ashley's scream as he dashed out of the bathroom, but not forgetting to grab him a towel. He carefully rushed downstairs shouting Ashley's name before entering the living room to find a busted window, a brick on the living room table, and a shaking Ashley in the corner of the room sobbing. 

He rushes to her side immediately pulling her into his arms as she quickly clenched onto him, "Baby, what happened?" He asked gently rocking her body, "T-They lied to us, " she cried as Jake furrowed, "Who did, baby?" He asked as Ashley pulled away, "The police, they said they would find them, " she said as Jake signed, "I don't want to stay here, Jake, " she said as more tears rolled down her cheeks as Jake wipe them away. 

"Alright, wait here for me to come back, " he said as Ashley began to panic, "No, please don't leave me, " she pleaded as Jake smiled weakly, "Alright, baby, I got you, " he said before lifting her and they both went up to his room.

Officer Willow said as Ashley sighed frustrated before walking away. Jake turned back to Officer Willow, "How long will it take for you guys to find them?" Jake asked as Officer Willow sighed, "We're doing all that we can, son, I suggest you two find a place to stay and let us do our jobs, " he said

before walking towards her as she avoided his stares, "The police are doing all that they can, Ashley, " he said as Ashley rolled her eyes, "And what if they don't find them?" She asked as Jake chuckled bitterly, "Why are you being so negative?" He asked as Ashley scoffed, "Because they are dangerous, I can't just relaxation knowing that they are still out there, " she said as Jake sighed, "They're

Anna's house as she stood outside waiting for their arrival. Ashley exited the car followed by Jake as Anna walked towards Ashley, "Hey, " she greeted as Ashley smiled before pulling her into a hug, "Hey, thanks for letting us crash at your place, Anna, " she said Anna waved her off, "It's not a big deal and I'm so sorry for what Tatiana diss to you both, " she said looking at both
