“Kidnapping of Margot”

“Come on, ill take you somewhere safe, a hotel.” Davy whispered. He took her arm to balance her.

“And where will you be?” she hissed, peering into his eyes.

“I am a PI. I am investigating him. I will be coming back here.” He explained with a shrug.

“Why?” She demanded. She wanted to cross her arms but he was holding one of them.

“Because. I need to get all the evidence I can. I have to bring him down for my client. And I have to bring him down for you.” He ran his hand down her arm from her elbow to her hand and gave her and a squeeze

He glanced back at her and nodded towards the bed, and then walked to it. “ Well, there’s a possibility that he might come in to look. And if he thinks you’re in bed and asleep, he might not find out you’re missing for much longer.” Davy explained softly.

Margot listened. She agreed with his logic and it did make sense, still the bed made her feel awkward.  She stayed back and watched as Davy up the pillow, sheets, and blankets to look like someone was asleep. He glanced up at her and smiled, seeing she was watching him.
