Three days went by. Brizee was still missing and Nick was getting more upset and worried. Kevin, Theresa, and Kevy were over at Nicks house.

      Nick, they will find her, they havent gave up and they wont, Kevin said.

      Shes been gone for three days, Kev, I cant take it anymore, just sitting around here, Nick said.

      But you are here for Jason, he needs you here, Theresa said.

      He needs his mother, Nick said.

      But he needs his father, too, Theresa said.

      I have to look for her, Nick said.

      Nick, the cops are looking for her, let them do their job, Kevin said.

      I cant sit here and do nothing, my wife and the mother of my son is missing! Nick said.

Dave came in. Nick looked at him.  Kevin and Theresa stood up.

      Dave, did you find her? Nick asked. Theresa came over to Nick.

      We found a body down by the ocean, Dave said.

      Oh no, Theresa said.

      Who is it? Kevin asked.

      We did an autopsy on the body, Nick, Im sorry, but its Brizee, Dave said.

      No, no, shes not dead, no way, shes alive, I can feel it, Nick said.

      Nick, we ran the tests twice, its Brizee, Dave said.

      No, I dont believe you! Nick said angrily.

      Nick, Theresa said crying.  Nick started to cry.

      No, T, its not her, it cant be her! Nick said crying.

      Im sorry, Nick, Dave said. Nick broke down. Theresa hugged him close.

      NO! Nick cried. He buried his face in Theresas neck and cried. She held him tight as he cried. Theresa looked at Kevin and held his hand. Brian came in with Brittany. They saw Nick crying and saw tears in Theresa and Kevins eyes.  Dave told Brian everything.  Brian leaned against the wall and slid down and buried his face in his hands. Brittany knelt down beside him. Dave left.  Brian got up and went over to Nick.

      Frack, Brian said. Nick pulled back and looked at him. Nick got up and hugged Brian.

      Im sorry, Frick, Nick said.

      For what, Frack, Brian said.

      Not protecting your sister, its my fault, Nick said.

      Frack, its not your fault, you did protect her, Brian said. Nick cried. Brian hugged him tight.

Nick woke up and looked around. He saw Brizee asleep and he laid back down and faced her. She woke up and looked at him.

      Morning, baby, Brizee said.

      Morning, I had a bad dream, Nick said.

      What about? Brizee said.

      I dont want to talk about it, Nick said.

      You sure? Brizee asked.

      Yeah, I am, Nick said. He got up and got dressed.

      So, what time will you be home? Brizee said.

      Probably around five, Nick said.

      Okay, see you then, Brizee said. Nick kissed her deeply.

      I love you, Nick said.

      I love you, too, Brizee said. Nick left. Brizee got up and got dressed and went to Jasons room and looked at him and smiled.

      Hey little guy, Brizee said lifting him out of the crib and cuddling him close. She went downstairs and went into the kitchen. Nick came in.

      Hey, Nick said.

      Hey, forget something? Brizee said.

      Yeah, Im not going to the studio, Im going to work on it here, Nick said.

      Why, Brizee said.

      Because I dont want to be away from you or Jas, Nick said hugging her close. He kissed Jason on the forehead. He then kissed Brizee on the lips.

      I love you, Brizee sad.

      I love you, too, baby, you and Jason are my life, I dont know what I would do without you, Nick said.

      You better get to work, baby, Brizee said.

      Okay, Ill be downstairs, Nick said.

      Okay, Brizee said. He kissed her and went downstairs. Kevin and Theresa came in with Kevy.

      Hey, could you guys watch Jason for awhile, Brizee said.

      Sure, well take them to the park, Theresa said.
