Zach buried his face in the crook of her neck and enjoying her softness and the way she played with his hair. The two didn\'t even realize they were pulling up until they heard a familiar crying sound. They pulled apart but not exactly separating from each other and peeled their gazes to the house door.

Amy\'s heart was beating wildly and just hearing her child cry like that made her heart constrict in pain. Now it was Zach\'s turn to comfort but he knew she would only calm down once the baby was in her arms. When the car came to a stop, she didn\'t wait for the bodyguard to get their door and jumped out, rushing into the house.

"There, there, there. It\'s okay sweetheart", Stella cooed at the crying baby as she walked around the living room.

Henry and Richard were seated with miserable looks on their faces. They wanted to watch a game so badly but they had been forced to help the women with the crying baby.

"Let me try again", Victoria stood to help her friend until she heard the door and the sound of rushing footsteps. "Are they back?"

"Mommy is here! Stop crying, stop crying baby. Shh! Ssh!" Stella cooed but Roserie cried even louder.

Amy rushed over and took the crying baby whose face was red and tear stained. "How long has she been crying for?" She asked as she rocked her and patted her bottom.

"Fifteen, twenty minutes? I don\'t know..", Stella could care less about that as she was upset with the young woman. "Where did you go that was so important you had to leave like that? Roserie is still young and will constantly need your attention. Amy, I know you\'re not someone who would neglect what\'s important but this was quite irresponsible of you."

"Both of you", Victoria added when Zach walked in. "What was the emergency?"

"Xavier got stabbed, he\'s in the hospital-"

"Oh my god!" Victoria and Stella shouted at the same time, eyes wide in shock before he could finish his sentence. The two men were quickly on their feet, joining the women.

"I\'ll go up", Amy said quietly to Zach and he nodded away. The guilt on her face because of their crying daughter was a heartbreaking sight for him.

"What happened?"

"Is he alright?"

"Which hospital was he taken to?"

"Why didn\'t you say this sooner?"

"You two!" Henry shut them up to let Zach speak.

"My son\'s hurt!" Victoria glared at her husband through tears but Henry ignored her. Seeing Zach being calm and collected meant he should not worry too much.

"I\'ll leave the explaining to him but he\'s fine. The wound isn\'t too deep."

"But he\'s all alone and probably scared after tonight. Why do these things happen to Xavie?" She started to sob.

Zach held her by the shoulders. "Believe me, he\'s fine. And someone\'s with him."

She took a deep breath and calmed down. Now, she understood why Henry was calm as well. "But it doesn\'t change the fact that you shouldn\'t have left with Amy like that? You could\'ve gone alone or taken your dad with you."

Henry gave Zach a look, silently agreeing with his wife. Was there something else to it? Because he knew that Zach and the word irresponsible never came in the same sentence. The same was true about Amy, Henry figured from what he\'d learned about her.

"He won\'t want visitors tonight so call him instead." He ignored both his parents and left, following Amy upstairs.

As Henry watched Zach\'s retreating figure, he could not help but resolve to get to the bottom of things. Zach\'s steps were hurrried, wanting to help Amy in case she was struggling to calm down their daughter. They were in on this together.

When he walked in, he was greeted by the sight of Amy sitting on the bed leaning against the headboard and Roserie whining while feeding. The little one sniffled as she continued to feed. Amy caressed her little face as she whisper sung her bedtime song to her in comfort. Zach walked over to the duo and sat in front of her.

"How is she?" He whispered as he looked down at her.

"She\'s still upset but she\'s okay."

"And you?" He looked her in the eyes with pure worry. "Are you alright?"

She only gave him a small smile. The guilt was still there and that worsened the guilt in him. "Amy-"

"Don\'t", she cupped his cheek and shook her head. The guilt in her eyes was replaced with a warm gaze as she looked at him. "Don\'t do that. Please."

He knew what she meant but he could not help himself especially after witnessing her take the heat early on downstairs. He took her hand and kissed her palm. She smiled seeing his guilty expression lessen. He leaned forward and kissed her forehead only for Roserie to make noise.

"Daddy is sorry princess", he kissed her little forehead twice but she whined some more whilst still feeding. "I am so sorry."

"Yeah, I don\'t think we\'ll be forgiven that easily", Amy mused with a chuckle. She had gotten the same response after apologising countless times and settled to just sooth her with her touch and singing.

"This temper.... I wonder who she\'s taking after", he asked looking up at her.

"Zachery", she glared at him. "You\'re lucky my hands are full."

"See?"

"You take credit for every good thing about her. I\'m upset", she whined.

"Alright. I\'m sorry", he smiled.

"No, you\'re not", she made to smack his arm but he easily caught her hand before she could hit him.

Her frustrated expression made him laugh as he brought her hand to his mouth and kissed her knuckles twice. "I\'m sorry. Hm?"

She was about to respond when a beeping warning sound resounded from her phone that sat on her nightstand. Her playful expression changed into a serious one and Zach grew curious.

"Someone is doing something they shouldn\'t", she mused while Zach retrieved the device for her. She unlocked it and type away with her free hand.

"Gutsy", he commented when he saw the name she pulled up within seconds. He had seen it on the list Amy retrieved containing gang names affiliated to the dark waters.

"Desperate", she put away her phone and shook her head. They were digging through her information, the little she had left, working to find her the master at masking her ways.

For the first time, Zach found the situation amusing. Finding Amy was the most frustrating path to ever walk on You can only find her if she lets you.

Greco got close only because she had fallen into their trap. Right now, it was no longer a mystery how they made that happen but now, the situation was diff- another warning sound. She picked up her phone and her brows slightly rose after she retrieved their info.

"Stella was right, they are coming for me. Another group", she showed the phone to Zach. "Now or ...."

He looked up from the phone and shook his head. "We wait."
