**********

Kaylie stood outside Janet's front door and knocked. She hadn't heard from Jan in three days, since the night of the barbecue. She'd heard something happened after she'd left. Something between Janet and Jack.

She couldn't help it, she was worried. Janet had always been a carefree girl, stubbornly ignoring the problems she faced at home. Lord knows she had enough of those. Her wealthy parents had put so much pressure on her to succeed as a classical dancer that it had nearly destroyed her. The accident had done more than finally end her ballet career once and for all. It'd made her invisible to her parents.

Since then, Janet had been in a tailspin. Kaylie sighed and rang the buzzer. She dreaded this conversation. If Janet was hiding out because of Jack, she didn't know what to tell her. He was a complicated guy. Devlin had told her that Jack had his reasons for being so solitary, but he wouldn't tell her why. Either way, she didn't want her friend to be hurt any more than she was already.

"Yes?"

Janet's dad was at the door. He looked over his shoulder nervously.

"You shouldn't be here Kaylie."

"Who's there?"

A shrill voice came from further inside the house. Janet's mother appeared in the doorway beside her dad. She looked crazed.

"Get out of here you tramp! I know you're the one who took my daughter to that- that place!"

Kaylie stepped backwards in shock. What was wrong with them? Where was her friend?

"Where's Janet? I haven't heard from her in days."

"That's because we took away her phone! You can tell that giant who keeps driving by to stay away!"

"Giant?"

They must mean Jack. He'd been driving by Janet's house? Since when?

Kaylie wanted to get away from these horrible people as quickly as possible but she had to find out where her friend was. Thankfully Janet's mom disappeared back into the house.

"Please Mr. Mahoney. Where is she?"

He glanced over his shoulder and smiled apologetically.

"She's in her room. But she'd not coming out any time soon. Sorry Kaylie."

He closed the door in her face. Kaylie stood there wondering what the heck was going on. She knew where Janet's room was. No one could stop her from peeking in the window.

She snuck along the side of the house and stared aghast at the hastily nailed shut window frame. They were treating Jan like a criminal. Kaylie shuddered. She might have lost her dad early on, but he'd loved and protected her. So had her mom.

Growing up she'd thought her well off friend had the best life. The big house, two parents… belatedly Kaylie realized how wrong she had been all those years.

She knocked tentatively on the window. She tried to see into the room but it was hard without any lights on inside. Janet's face appeared in the window. There were circles under her pretty blue eyes.

She looked awful.

Janet held a finger to her lips signaling silence. Kaylie nodded and waited while Jan disappeared from the window. She was back after a few moments, holding up a piece of paper with hastily scribbled words.
