Chapter 11 –Ian's POV
It takes us another day to reach the closest town. We are very careful to cover our tracks, or at least, 'I am. Amy winces at every step and her legs are week from Isabel's assorted drugs.
I still cannot believe that Amy loves me! I've been trying to tell her how I feel since the clue hunt, and now she finally knows!
We walk (Read "Hobble") down a rickety old street. The houses are very large and upscale, with stone walls and gates. We find one of the more "downscale" buildings and knock on the door.
"Hello?" A voice with a distinct British accent.
"Please, we need help. My friend is injured!" There is no reply for a moment.
The door creeks open, revealing a small woman with short brown hair. Her clothes are designer and she clearly knows how to comport herself. At the moment however, she just helps me get Amy inside and lie her down on a couch.
"I'm Ian...Fitzgerald. This is my girlfriend, Amy Green." I lie about our names.
"I'm Jaden Darcy, but you can call me J.D. All my friends do."
She hurries off and puts a damp cloth on Amy's forehead.
"Is there anyone I can call for you? Parents, family?" She seems genuinely concerned.
"Yes please. My sister Natalie Kab...Fitzgerald." She nods.
~~Glitter in the sky~~
Five minutes later I'm on the phone with Dan. He picked up the phone on the first ring, so I hurry to tell him the full story.
"...and then we met J.D."
"I'll send Madrigal agents to pick you up. Wait for...Charles Montgomery."
"Sure."
"I have to go tell everyone else the news."
"Until later, Daniel."
"It's Dan, Cobra."
~~Stronger~~
In less than two hours we're on a plane to Attleboro. Turns out we were in L.A. I'm sitting on the couch of the private jet, and Amy's lying down with her head in my lap. She looks so cute when she's sleeping.
~~Ever Ever After~~
We touchdown in Attleboro around seven o'clock the next day. Dan and Natalie meet us at the airport. I give Natalie the biggest hug I have ever given anyone, but Dan is a mess.
He runs over to Amy, who is still asleep/unconscious on the couch. He strokes her hair. The tears start running down his face, soaking his shirt.
"What did your mother do to her, Cobra?" He sounds very angry. I'm about to answer when Natalie goes and sits next to him.
"Relax, Dan. We can figure everything out later, OK?"
My head goes back and forth between the two of them. Natalie is now patting Dan's back and talking to him. (OoC). What the heck? Daniel Cahill and Natalie Kabra are getting along? It's not normal!
Dan eventually cools down enough to help me carry Amy into a waiting limo. We lay her down across the seats and Natalie sits beside her. I'm forced to sit beside (shudder) Dan.
"So how is everything?" I ask, trying to break the tension.
"Ted and Reaghan hooked up." Natalie murmurs
" WHAT?!"
"Ned and Madison."
" WHAT?!"
"Hamilton and Sinead."
"WHAT?!"
So basically, our kidnapping was just an opportunity for everyone else to hook up. Good to know they care.
