A/N- The dance rocked last night! At the very beginning it wasn't very good, but 10 minutes later good songs went on. It was so much fun! Woot!

Summary- A few days later….What did Lucy see? What's going on with Thomas? Kevin and Lucy plan to stay one extra day, but what happens that makes them change their mind?

Chapter 13- Breaking Out

"Lucy, what's wrong?" Kevin asked parking the car in the hospital's parking lot.

"Nothing," She was about to get up, but Kevin gently pulled her back into her seat.

"Luce, you can tell me anything," He paused, "And I know there's something wrong. You haven't been talking very much lately."

Lucy looked down as she sighed, "Kevin…the day we went to Mary's apartment, I saw something."

"What did you see?" Lucy looked up and started to explain what she had seen.

-Flashback-

Lucy picked up the last suitcase that was in the car. She followed Kevin closely behind. The area she was in didn't make her feel safe. She felt as if someone was watching her. She could feel someone staring at her and as she tried forgetting about it…she saw it.

Kevin walked into the doorway of the apartment when a blur ran past Lucy. She saw it from the corner of her eye. She couldn't see what the figure was, but she saw some of its features. It was a man and she could see the colors around it. There was a little bit of dirty blond, but mostly black. She could have sworn that she had seen a knife being held by the man…if it was a man.

Lucy quickly looked forward and walked faster.

-Flashback Ends-

Kevin embraced Lucy into a hug, "Luce, everything will be fine. We'll go home tomorrow."

They both got out of the car and started walking towards the hospital. Lucy walked to Samantha's room right away, while Kevin got a newspaper. He decided that he would look through it to see if he could find something about what Lucy could have seen. The front caught his eye.

Thomas had been roaming around for countless hours trying to find Mary's apartment. He finally found it when he saw Kevin and Lucy walking into the apartment. Now he was by the dumpster that was behind the apartment as he thought about that day.

-Flashback-

Thomas figured out the number of Mary's apartment, he just hadn't gotten the apartment since it had slipped his mind. Just like the fact that he had to change to something else, since no one wore what he was wearing.

He was walking around yet another apartment when he saw a car coming. He quickly hid at a spot where he could see who it was. The car stopped and Kevin and Lucy stepped out of the car. He smirked.

Kevin had just opened the door of the apartment when Lucy started to follow him with the last suitcase. Thomas leaped out of his spot and ran as fast as his legs could carry him. He watched Lucy stop in her tracks. Her face was covered with fright and you could see it from where he was. Thomas had tried to scare her, so he took out the knife he had been holding.

She quickly walked away still covered in fright and followed Kevin more closely than she already was.

-Flashback Ends-

He laughed silently as he remembered that day.

Kevin had just walked into Samantha's room when Lucy was about to leave. Lucy looked at Kevin as he held the paper in front of her, but looked back down to read it. There was a picture of Thomas Hendricks.

Murderer and the man who almost killed a 1 week old child, Thomas Hendricks…

"Broke out of jail only a few days ago?" Lucy read allowed.

"I think it would be better if we went home today." Lucy nodded and handed Samantha to Kevin.

"I'll go call Mary."

Lucy walked off to find a payphone and when she found one she inserted some coins. She quickly dialed Mary's cell phone number and waited for her to pick up.

"Hello?"

"Mare, it's Lucy,"

"Hey, Luce,"

"Can you get us 3 plane tickets to Glen Oak?"

"I don't…"

"Please?"

"Alright, for when,"

"Tonight,"

"I thought you were leaving tomorrow."

"We were going to, but Thomas broke out of jail!"

"I'll get them and bring them home tonight."

"Thanks."

"No problem."

Lucy turned around and found herself face to face with Kevin and Samantha. Before Kevin had walked into the room Lucy had talked to the doctor and he said that Samantha was able to go home, so all they had to do was get out of the hospital and into the car.

They had bought a car seat the day before, so all the couple had to do was put Samantha in the car seat and head to Mary's apartment.

As they were driving there was tension in the car. None of them knew where Thomas was, but Lucy had one thought in mind.

The apartment.

A/N- I know this chapter is short and I'm sorry for that, but I have to do stuff…including read 500 pages by October 15, 2004 (even though we don't have school that day) for English class. I'm going to read a few pages…since I only read like 70 pages since I've been busy reading fanfics instead of books…and then I'll TRY to make another chapter. Please R&R!
