Once Lucas and Amy got into the car, Amy was silent as she tried to figure out what Lucas wanted to say to her and why he was going through that much trouble for her sake.

Although she had initially planned to go directly to the police station so they would accompany back home in case Malone was still there, but now that Lucas was going with her, her plan had changed.

She didn't want Lucas finding out about her trouble with Malone.

Lucas on the other hand didn't say anything immediately and just drove in silence. He wanted to arouse her curiosity enough for her to ask him to speak.

From his experience as a medical doctor, he knew very well how much people hated the suspense that grating silence brought.

Impressively, Amy was able to hold out for fifteen minutes before she finally gave in to her curiosity, "I thought you said you had something to say. Are you going to speak or not?" She asked, making his lips twitch in amusement.

"I thought you'd never ask," Lucas said and she frowned.

"Is this some sort of game or what?"

"No. It's not a game. I'm just trying to make sure you will be interested enough in whatever I have to say to listen. You didn't seem like you were willing to listen last night," Lucas said and she rolled her eyes.

"I listened quite alright, and if you want to talk about the same thing...."

"I know the truth about Miley's condition and what her parents think of you," Lucas stated, cutting off whatever else she wanted to say, since he knew that if he didn't make that clear she was going to resume with her lies.

Amy frowned, "Did Lucy...."

"No. It wasn't Lucy. I knew about it even before traveling down. I can't tell if Miley mentioned it to you, but I used to be a doctor at her family hospital, so I'm very well acquainted with Doctor Drew," Lucas said easily.

"If you were aware of the situation of things, why did you ask me those questions?" She asked in a tight voice, annoyed that he had known she was lying.

"Because I wanted to hear from you directly...."

"I plan to do so this morning before leaving for the office," Amy said and Lucas nodded.

"Good. I'm sure you don't want to be late for work. Go inside and get dressed. I will accompany you and then drop you off at the office," he offered but Amy shook her head.

"...."

"I know I don't have to," he said the moment she opened her mouth to speak, knowing that was what she wanted to say.

"Let's not argue about it. Save my time and yours," Lucas said, and Amy frowned.

"Why are you doing this?" She asked, and he shrugged.

"I will answer your question after you get back," Lucas said, and Amy eyed her door, reluctant to go in.

As if sensing her fear, Lucas got out of the car and headed for the door, leaving her to go after him since she had no idea what he was up to.

Lucas tried to unlock her door, and when it didn't open, Amy checked under the doormat for her spare key and she took it out and handed it to Lucas who held out a hand to her.

Lucas opened the door and stepped in before Amy to be sure the apartment was empty, and as he walked in, he remembered the last time he had been there and how angry he had been when he left.

He never would have thought he would come back here for any reason, yet here he was no thanks to his folly and inability to stay out of the problem of other people.

"The place is empty," Lucas announced to Amy, who was already picking up a note which was left on her table.

[I will be back. For your sake I hope you will have my money ready when I get back, else there will be hell to pay.]

"Let me see that," Lucas said when he saw the frown on Amy's face, and he took it from her.

Lucas read through the short note before looking at Amy, "Go get dressed. We will take the note with us to the police station, and a copy of the contract Miley signed with him, if you have it. You will have to change the lock to your apartment. And maybe you can pick a few of your things and keep staying at Lucy's for the time being. Tyler and I will move to the hotel so you can have the place to yourself," Lucas said, and Amy frowned.

"Thanks, but...."

"We can argue about it in the car. Go get dressed. I will be waiting in the car. Unlike me, the time isn't waiting for you," Lucas said before walking out of the apartment with the note.
