If the files are there on your drive, then you just might have a corrupted catalog. You can create a new catalog and add the images back but there are other approaches that you can use, including going back to the last catalog backup and using that, and just do a sync for the work you've done since the last backup.

if you did a backup just click on that and it should load

I am probably too late (been away for a month) but I think you may have accidently either created or more likely opened an empty catalogue.

In the Library, goto File > Open Recent and see if there are any other catalogues listed. If there are, try them one by one until you find the one you were working on.
