"WHAT! Are you sure?" He asked as he jumped out of bed and ran after me, but I didn't stop to talk to him. He just followed me outside, not bothering to change, still in his boxers.

"Of course I am sure. I looked everywhere. Oh my God, where are they." I yelled as I aimlessly walked around. I didn't know where I was going, or what I was doing, but I didn't know what else to do.

"Wait, where is Justin?" Hayden asked as he tried to keep up with me.

"I don't know. He isn't here either." I said as I stopped and leaned forward to catch my breath.

"The car is gone. Justin probably went somewhere and took the babies. Ok, calm down." He said as he rubbed my back while I was still catching my breath. I was bent over with my hands on my knees. I felt sick to my stomach. "Come on, lets go back to the house. I'll call Justin on his cell and find out where they are." Hayden said as he helped me stand up and we walked back to the house. Hayden called Justin' cell phone as soon as we got back.

"Justin. Do you have the babies?.......Oh thank God. Where are you?......Ok, I'll see you in 5 minutes." I heard Hayden say. I was now sitting on the couch. I couldn't sit still I was so worried. Hayden hung up the phone and looked at me.

"Honey, it is alright. Justin has the babies. He took them for a ride to see what was around here." Hayden said.

  As soon as he finished talking I heard a car pull into the driveway and I ran out the door. Justin was getting out of the driver side door and was reaching to get Maddy out of her carseat. I ran past him and pushed him away and got Maddy out myself. I reached over and got Aiden out as well and handed him to Hayden. I wanted to hold both of them close to me and never let go but I was so irrate at the moment I was almost afraid to hold Maddy.

"Don't you EVER do that again!" I yelled as I walked back into the house cradling Maddy against my chest as I held her to me. Justin followed behind me with his arms spread out like he didn't know why I was mad. I put both of the babies in their cribs and once they were asleep I went back out into the livingroom.

"What is your problem?" Justin asked as I didn't say a word to him, I just walked past him and went into the kitchen where he followed me.

"What's MY problem? I'll tell you what MY problem is. I woke up this morning and my babies were no where to be found. What the hell were you thinking taking them without telling me." I said as I walked over to where he was standing. He was a good foot taller than me, but at this moment in time I could have taken on anyone that got in my way.

"I didn't think you would freak out. I just thought you two would like a couple hours of extra sleep." He said

"You have no idea what you just put me through Justin." I said. Hayden had by now come into the kitchen to see what was going on. He just stood there not knowing what to do. "I'm telling you what Justin, don't you ever take my kids anywhere again without telling me. Or I swear to God, I will end up doing something that I will later regret." I said as I looked him dead in the eyes and when he didn't say anything else I walked out of the room.

I didn't talk to him at all the rest of the day. I barely even talked to Hayden. I just sat in the nursery and watched Maddy and Aiden sleep, or play. I fed them and changed them, but I was so afraid to leave them again. I know that it wasn't meant to scare me, or maybe it was either way it really shook my to the core. Justin was a changed man, and he was quickly wearing out his welcome in my house. And what would happen over the next few days would forever severe the ties that we shared with each other.
