Chapter 14
Wow, just updated yesterday and I'm already getting new ideas! Hopefully this chapter will be up within 3 or 4 days of the last one…that would be a miracle!
"We're leaving."
Kelsi looked up at him from her position on the floor. "What?"
"We are not fucking staying here when all your stupid little friends could bust in here any second and take you away from me." Robbie said from where he was standing over her. "We should've never came back here in the first place."
"But…but we can't just leave-," Kelsi started. She had a feeling that if they ever left, she would never see any of her friends again.
"Get up. We're leaving. Right now." Robbie said, reaching down and pulling her to her feet.
"Now?" Kelsi asked, in shock. "Don't we have to pack first?"
"We don't have time to pack." He said. "We have to go."
"Are you kidding? This is insane!" She said, a small part of her hoping that it was all a joke.
"Just get in the car." Robbie said.
"Where are we going?" She asked, trying to avoid leaving as long as she could.
"Didn't I say get in the damn car?" He yelled. "And I haven't really figured that out yet."
She just stood there, mouth wide open, not really knowing what to say. "But, your job and-"
"Get in the car!" He yelled so loud she swore the whole building shook. Reluctantly, she opened and the door and headed for his truck, thinking he had finally truly lost his mind.
In a matter of seconds he was beside her in the driver's seat, not even bothering to buckle his seat belt before speeding out of the parking lot.
"Jason, where the hell are you?" Sharpay screamed into the phone. "You said two minutes. It's been at least five!"
"I know, I'm sorry. There was a damn license check a mile away from your condo. I'm almost there." He said.
"Good!" Sharpay snapped before hanging up. She instantly felt bad, because she knew it wasn't his fault, but the fact that one of her best friends was obviously in big trouble was making her judgment a little skewed.
She watched from her window until she saw Jason's familiar car pull into the parking lot, then practically flew down the stairs to meet him.
"Oh my god, Jason. Thank god you're here. There was a lot of yelling earlier, but they're quiet now and I don't know what's going on and I'm so scared and-"
"Sharpay, I know you're worried, but would you please let me go up there and check it out?" Jason said, trying to pretend he was calm for Sharpay's sake.
"Yeah. Sorry." Sharpay moved out of the way and watched Jason run up the stairs.
"Kelsi!" He yelled, pounding on the door. "Open up!"
Sharpay bit her pinky nail and watched anxiously. No one came to the door.
"I don't hear anything!" Jason called down.
"Well you have you to do something!" Sharpay yelled back. What if she's unconscious or…or…"
"Don't say it." Jason cut her off. "I'm going to try to break down the door."
She started up the stairs as he kicked the door as hard as he could, two, three, four, five times before it finally burst open. "That," He said. "Is not nearly as easy as it looks when Elliot Stabler does it."
"Ooh he is so hott for an old guy!" Sharpay said, momentarily distracted. "Well are you going to go in or not?"
"Kelsi?" He called out. "Stay behind me." He instructed Sharpay. "Is anyone here?"
"I don't hear anything." Sharpay said.
Jason took a few steps into the apartment. "You stay here. I'll go check the other rooms."
He walked around, checking the kitchen, bedroom, bathrooms, and even the closet. "They're not here." He announced, walking back into the main area.
"WHAT?" Sharpay screamed. "How can they not be here?"
"I don't know, Sharpay, did you see them leave?" Jason asked.
"I wasn't really looking. I was too busy…worrying." Sharpay said. She walked outside and looked around the parking lot. "Oh shit, Jason! His truck's gone."
"You've got to be fucking kidding me." Jason deadpanned. "Where the hell are they?"
"Yeah, like I really know!" Sharpay snapped. "Sorry, Jason. I just…I'm really freaked out right now."
"Hospital." Jason suddenly said. "What if it was bad enough that he had to take her to the hospital?"
"Oh my god, Jason, you are a genius." Sharpay said. "Call the hospital, now!"
After making a few phone calls to all the local hospitals, Jason came up with nothing. "No one with her or Robbie's name or description has been in in the past few minutes." He said.
"Shit!" Sharpay yelled.
"We'll find her, Sharpay, I promise." He said, but instantly regretted it because he knew that there was a possibility that he wouldn't be able to keep the promise.
"But what if we don't?" Sharpay whispered.
Kelsi woke up to the sound of the rain hitting the car windshield. Glancing at the clock, she realized she'd been asleep for about three hours.
"Where are we?" She asked Robbie groggily.
"Almost to Texas." He said.
"Texas?" She screamed. "We're going to Texas?"
"We're getting as far away from fucking Albuquerque as we can." He said. "We'll probably go farther than Texas."
"What are we going to do about jobs and money and where the hell are we going to live?" Kelsi was panicking. If checking Robbie into the loony bin was an option, she'd do it in a heartbeat.
"We'll figure it out." He said. "And I know some people."
"And what about our wedding? What are we going to do, go down to the court house like a bunch of rednecks and getting married there?" She shrilled.
"Of course not." He said. "We'll still have a nice wedding."
"And who exactly will on the guest list since we've just left all our fucking friends?" She was full out yelling by that point. "And you know I really wanted my mom to be there!"
"I know that, baby, but none of that is what matters." He said calmly. "All that matters is that we have each other, and from now on, it's just going to be you and me."
Her heart dropped to her feet. She had no one now. He'd finally gone crazy enough to do what he always wanted to do: keep her all to himself.
Well, Kelsi thought, I might as well be living in hell.
Bahaha I bet no one was expecting that! I know everyone was like 'OMG Jason is going to save her', but come on, do you really think she could get away this early in the story? The dramas only just begun! And sorry for not updating sooner, but I've had writers block, plus exams started this week! Ew :( But on June 10th, my school gets out so there will probably be more updates after that!
Oh, and the Elliot Stabler reference is from Law and Order:SVU. I couldn't resist!
