All passengers please fasten your seatbelts as we prepare for landing' the hostess stated over the intercom. Lincoln knew he was getting closer and closer to seeing his son, which meant he was closer and closer to telling LJ everything that had been going on. Every single scenario he imagined in his head ended the same way, LJ never wanting to speak to him again. The plane landed and as he exited the plane, he took a deep breath, hoping something would come to him.

Michael smiled as he heard the door rattling.
"Did you get-what's the matter?" Michael asked as he noticed Sara's expression. Sara didn't say a word, she just sat down on the bed as Michael sat next to her.
"Sara, what happened?" Michael brushed the hair out of her face, she pulled away.
"Her..I saw her."
"Saw who? Gretchen?" Michael said quietly, Sara nodded.
"It wasn't just her...she was kissing..."
"Kissing who?" Michael asked, fearful of the answer.
"Lincoln," Sara said as she raced to the bathroom, tears streaming down her face.

Lincoln walked into the airport and looked around. He noticed someone running towards him and he instantly recognized the face. LJ ran into his arms and Lincoln embraced him.
"Dad! I missed you so much," LJ said as a tear ran down his face.
"I missed you too, LJ," Lincoln replied. As he hugged his son, all of the scenarios he thought of on the plane flashed before his eyes. He couldn’t bear the thought of losing his son, again, especially if he could do something about it. He looked up and noticed Jane.
“Jane, I don’t know how I can ever thank you,” Lincoln smiled as he let go of his son's embrace.
“It wasn’t a problem, LJ’s a great kid,” Jane smiled back.
“Yes, he is,” Lincoln said as he wrapped his arm around his son's shoulders.
“LJ’s stuff is in my car, did you check a bag at luggage?” Jane asked.
“Nope, just this,” Lincoln said pointing to his backpack, “but I will need to pick up the rental car.”
“Alright, so why don’t we head over there first,” Jane smiled and Lincoln sighed, still waiting for an idea to come to him.

Gretchen sat down on the couch and turned on her laptop, sipping a cup of coffee. Her phone began to vibrate on the table next to her, she looked at the number and eagerly picked it up.
“Hello?”
“Auntie Gretchen?”
“Yeah Emily it’s me.”
“I know I’m not suppose to call you but-“
“Is everything okay?”
“I don’t think so.”
“What’s going on?” Gretchen asked as she moved the laptop and stood up.
“Well I got home and Mommy wasn’t here…she told me she would be.”
“Did you try calling her, sweetheart?” Gretchen asked.
“Yeah but,” Emily stopped talking and screamed at the top of her lungs.
“Emily! Emily!” Gretchen yelled as she heard more of Emily’s screams, the line went dead.
