He smiled slightly.

She smiled back. "I should check on Laur...."

"Yeah...I'll check on Caleb."

Marie nodded before going to her sisters room and not seeing her so going downstairs where she found her in the kitchen.

Elijah walked into Caleb's room and like Marie, he didn't find him there and he walked downstairs. "Have either of you seen Caleb?"

Marie looked up. "No he was in his room last time I checked yesterday."

Laura shook her head.

"He ain't there now." He sighed.

Laura sighed. "He might have gone back to where he was yesterday...."

"I doubt it."

"I'll go find him..."

"If you want to."

Laura got up and walked out intending on finding Caleb.

Caleb was out with Charlotte, and she was doing some hand-to-hand combat with him.

She looked everywhere for him like almost literally everywhere she could think over until she finally finally remembered Charlotte and headed there.

Charlotte eventually pinned Caleb to the ground.

Laura simply rang the bell when she arrived.

Charlotte looked towards the door. "It's open."

She pushed it open stepping inside. "Hi Charlotte sorry to just come by but uh have you heard from Caleb?"

"He's here." She called through, still pinning Caleb to the floor, though now her knee was on his chest, a hand on his neck. "He just can't answer right now."

Laura made her way into the room stepping a few feet away so she was able to see what was going on. "Since you already have him down on the floor mind holding him there until he agrees to actually talk to me and not walk away again?"

"Yeah sure." She looked down at Caleb. "You don't need to breath so stop struggling."

"Much thanks." She gave her a smile walking over and kneeling down so she was closer. "Cal come on... you know how much you mean to me and I know what an ass I was. I'm sorry...I'll never not tell you something again just please stop avoiding me...that hurts more then anything else..."

Caleb didn't say anything or do anything mainly because Charlotte was choking him.

Laura took hold of his hands and kissed his knuckles leaning down to whisper in his ear. "You're my life Cal literally...my everything...tell me we can try to fix this..."

"He can't exactly speak right now, and if I move he'll get up and leave."
