Empty House, Empty Heart

[simply_linds]

It's strange, being alone in this house, just me and the dogs. Darren and Daniel are of course gone, and Lee and Karl should be in Australia by now, or soon. I'm sitting alone on the couch with just Hey Dog and Scooter, the dog Ben gave me

I've been told to deliver a message from someone, and I'm sorry that I've had to come in here under these circumstances. Benjamin is being held somewhere in Florida for reasons that I do not know. Please understand that I have nothing to do with what is going on, but I am being made a messenger. I will send the information as I get it, but they have only told me to make you aware that he has gotten himself into a serious situation. God help me...

Shit! Who the fuck are you, don't just leave this and not tell me what I should do! I just walked around town feeling mad and scared and pissed and furious at Ben and, I can't believe I--I-- oh man, I can't believe what I did last night, I was just so mad at him. Then I guess I fell asleep in my car and just got home and found this, where the fuck is he? What do you mean serious situation, why are you doing this? Now what do I do? What happened to him? WHERE IS HE? No one's here, they're all gone to Oz, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?????? WHY THE HELL IS HE IN FLORIDA????????? My head is killing me and I'm so sorry, Ben, where are you?

Linds, why didn't you tell us all this? And this-- "I can't believe I--I-- oh man, I can't believe what I did last night, I was just so mad at him."

What do you mean by that, mate? What happened? What did you do?

And no, I'm not mad at you. I'm worried about you almost as much as I'm worried about Ben. Keep Lee's mom's number handy--if you need us when we're out with Darren and Dan, don't hesitate to call her. She'll be able to get ahold of us. In the meantime there's no reason to panic. Remember what I told you on the phone.

Karl

What I did--Karl, I...I feel so guilty. I didn't know--I thought Ben had left me, what was I supposed to think? I... I went out with someone else last night. All night. I drank too much, was depressed...I didn't know what to think and then when I got home and found this out...I don't know what to do. I felt sick. Really sick, what I did. *sigh* I'm sorry, I'm really really sorry. I just need to find Ben, tell him I'm sorry.

I don't know what to do. I'll figure it out though. I promise.

Linds, Calm Down!

Like we said on the phone a little while ago, you gotta stay calm. Getting all excited and freaked isn't going to help the situation any. Like Karl said, if you need us we'll be there for you and Ben. Just say the word. Hire the damn detective--use the name I gave you. Lynn's discreet, she'll find out what she can. I know who Mitch is of course but don't know him. See if you can't track down Aaron, too. Call us at my mom's and try to stay cool. Ben's...well I was going to say he's a big boy and can take care of himself, but sometimes I wonder. Alot of times. Why the hell didn't you tell us what was going on? Why'd you take off and spend Christmas alone like that?

Lee, a little ticked about all this

[klgrem]

Oh gosh, Linds. I am so sorry.
*Hugs*
Maybe you should get a detective or talk to the police or something.
Please take care of yourself.

*Hugs and Love*

Linda I'm just sitting here waiting to hear back, hope Mitch gets back to me soon. I hate this, I'm here all alone, the guys are all gone and no way would I...unless...I don't know what to do, Linda!

I'm sorry to hear that Lindsay:( Maybe Ben will come around. Don't give up hope.

[simply_linds]

Yeah, well, I don't know. I just don't know anything anymore.
