Part 9 (2/2)

”What's going on?” Ty asked stepping into the hall.

”Olivia is missing.” I yelled loosing my cool.

”I completely forgot.” Ty said looking at Darcy with a guilty look.

”Forgot what?” I stomped towards Ty managing to keep my hand at my side and not put it around his throat like I wanted too.

”Tomorrow well now today is the fourth anniversary of her brother's death she must have taken off already.”

”Her brother is dead?” I asked my blood turning to ice.

”You didn't know?” Ty asked.

Taking a deep breath I closed my eye, ”Please tell me her brother did not die of an overdose?”

”He died of an overdose.” Darcy answered.

f.u.c.k.

”I'm guessing she didn't tell you?” Ty sighed running his hand over his face.

f.u.c.k no she didn't. It was bad when I thought her brother was on drugs but dead because of an overdose, it was far from bad now.

”How could you not know about her brother being dead but know it was an overdose?” Darcy asked swinging the door open, hands going to her hips att.i.tude on full display.

”When she was drunk a couple of weeks ago she told Mason that her brother cared for drugs more then he cared for her. Now where does she go when she takes off?” I asked turning back to Ty.

”We don't know. Olivia doesn't talk about Alex much.” Ty said leaning into the wall. ”Before we lived together we wouldn't see her for a couple of days. Last year she only disappeared for a day.”

”It's fine she'll come back when she's ready Jonah.” Darcy shrugged.

”It is not fine. It's the middle of the night, she's not picking up her cell and G.o.d only knows how upset she is.”

”What are we going to do?” Ty asked shooting Darcy a glare.

”We're going to do nothing.” Darcy snapped, ”Jonah's going to go home. She'll call you if she wants.” Her voice had turned to ice and something was working behind her eyes.

Ignoring her I started walking to the door, ”I'm going to call Denny to call the boys, you think of places she might go then me and my boys are going to go look for her.” I said over my shoulder dialing Denny's number.

Letting the door shut behind me I heard Ty and Darcy yelling at each other.

”What?” Denny answered voice already horsed by sleep.

”Olivia is missing apparently she takes off every year on the anniversary of her brother's death. Her roommates aren't worried but it's the middle of the freaking night and she's not picking up her cell.”

”s.h.i.+t.”

”s.h.i.+t doesn't even cover it Denny her brother died of a f.u.c.king overdose.”

”I'm on my way. Text me the address, do you want me to call the boys.”

”Yes.” Ending the call I took a deep breath trying to calm the bad feeling in the pit of my stomach and redialed Olivia's cell.

I could breathe again not great because I was freezing a'yoga pants at night in December not a good ideaa' but at least it wasn't from a panic attack. The attack had calmed down once I got to Alex's grave. For the last couple hours I had told Alex all about the last year but mostly about the last four weeks since meeting Jonah. Alex would have loved Jonah.

Kissing my fingers I pressed them against his grave stone, ”I love you, Alex.”

Standing up I took a deep breath and made my way towards the gates to go home.

My hand reached for the cemetery gate as my eyes caught the s.h.i.+ne of a black car sitting across the street.

Oh no.

The car doors opened and two figures stepped out onto the dark road.

Panicking I ran back through the cemetery, praying the back gate wasn't lock.

Side stepping a gravestone at the last minute my boot slipped on the wet gra.s.s sending me falling to the ground, my right knee landing painfully on a rock.

Lifting myself up on to my hands I looked behind me to see two figures coming towards me. Ignoring the pain in my knee I pushed to my feet running the last remaining steps to the gate that was, thank G.o.d, opened.

Running down the deserted street I pulled out my cell.

”Did you try her cell again?” Ty asked nervously looking around the living room that was packed with Denny, Mason, Cole, and Ben who all had at least 90 pounds of pure muscle on the kid.

”Haven't stopped calling it.” I said feeling more helpless than I'd ever felt.

Gripping my shoulder Denny gave it a squeeze giving me a small smile.

”Maybe the girl is just out getting her freak on?” Darcy's date unwisely offered.

Stepping towards him to beat the little s.h.i.+t Denny pulled me back. ”Darcy is it? You don't know Jonah well enough yet but your boy is about one smart comment away from getting a facial courtesy of his fist.”

My cell ringing broke through the tension and my G.o.d I had never been so happy to hear the awful ring tone Olivia had put on my phone. ”Olivia where are babe?”

”Jonah.” The panic and fear in her voice would have taken me to my knees if it weren't for Denny's hand still on my shoulder.

”What's wrong?”
