What was I going to do now? I sighed.
"Guys, why don't you call Nick and ask him to come pick you up?" I smiled at Aaron and Angel in hopes that they'd understand the importance of what just happened.
"Why can't you take us Bri?" Aaron said, narrowing his eyes.. apparently not. But hey, they were still 10.
"Cause this nice lady just lost her son Aaron!!" Angel rolled her eyes and sat beside Liz. "Listen Lisa, we'll find your son.." she rubbed her back softly, making Liz smile faintly.
"WE won't do anything.. you two are going back with Nick and you'll--"
"Nick's too busy to spend time with us anyway!! I don't want to be with him.. I regret ever coming here!!" Aaron yelled, tears filling his eyes. "We came here to see if we could have our brother back.. but we don't.. you're acting more like our brother than him.. so why should I want to stay with him? I want to help Lisa find her son.."
"Me too!" Angel yelled and got up, standing beside Aaron. I sighed, again, and gave in.
"Fine.. fine.. you'll come.. but if you become a burden I'm going to leave you two on the road.." I warned them and looked at Liz. "Anything I can get you?" I asked her, smiling softly.
"Just wait downstairs for El's to come, will ya?"
"How am I going to recognize her?"
"Short, dark hair.. REALLY pissed look on her face.." she said, smiling. I laughed and nodded.
"Ok.. twins, take care of her.. Aaron, call Nick.. tell them you're coming with me and two nice ladies on an adventure.. and miss?" I said, turning to Liz "We'll get your son back.." I smiled and left downstairs.
I know I made a promise and I wasn't sure if I could keep it.. but God only knows how much I wanted that to be true.. I also wanted to help her.. I didn't know how, but I wanted to help her so bad. Her eyes had this innocence and pureness that I've never seen in a girl before. She was so honest, and even though the fact that she had a kid kind of impressed me for a while, I saw love oozing out of her eyes when she spoke about him.. she loved her kid, even though it was noticeable that she didn't love the dad.. who knows under what circumstances she had that kid, but she sure loved him. He even had my middle name: Thomas. I smiled to myself.. this kid and I were connected in some weird way.. SHE and I were connected in the same weird way. I made a promise to myself, whether we find her kid or not, I'll make her happy.. somehow, someway..
I sighed and waited downstairs for a short haired, pissed looking chick.
