'' congratulations Austin, you have been kidnapped'' ally said
''huh?''
Ally chuckles making me even more confused but she quickly stops as she sees joe seeing her from outside
''ally?'' joe said
Ally quickly drives the car full speed. But she was not driving forward but backwards. I was coming to the front passenger seat but I screamed as ally take a quick u turn making me fall back. ''sit quietly!'' ally yelled. Police cars were now right behind us. I was trying to get to the front seat but all these turns and breaks were making me fall back. So, I jumped to the front seat as I fell not back this time but in the front seat but I was upside down. ''can't you just sit in one place!'' ally yells as her eyes on the road ''sure, I'd be more comfortable with a mattress!'' I yelled sitting perfectly now. There was a slight big wall that was ahead of us and a building beside it making it have a less space in between for a car. But as we came closer, we passed it ''are you a ghost rider or what!'' I yelled we were not in a street full of driving cars. ''watch out!'' I yelled as the car was about to hit us.
''I've never come across a girl like you dear god save me! Watch out! Aren't you scared''
''shut the hell up!''
We drove to some sort of a safe house there were steals putting down slid ways as the car went through it making it jump. ''you know what let's get out of here before you make things worse'' The police was not that far but not that close. So, we got out of the car and ran.
…
We were walking sneakily to check if there were any police. Ally was going to an open truck. ''what are you doing?'' she was going through the boxes checking things ''are you crazy? Its someone's truck, not a damn boudoir''
''shut up''
She took out a small axe from the box which made me a bit startled
''shut up and put you hand here''
''no no no no''
She places made hands still
''chopping off a handsome man's hand won't give you anything''
She was about to hit the axe in between the handcuff
''wait! How about we test first'' getting out a bundle of rope
''with this?''
''yes, lets test you're aim''
She hit the axe. But it was not that even near the bundle of rope. She did again, no luck
''wait'' taking her backpack out and putting it in the truck
''I think there's no talent''
This time she hit hard but not to the bundle but close leaving it a deep cut
''oh damn'' I muttered
''okay''
''let's not do this''
''one second'' putting the axe in the truck and getting something out of her Geans pocket
''found it''
''what's this?''
''a hairpin. Idiot. sit'' as we sat down
''hairpin? how does this work''
''you ask a lot of questions''
Tingling the hairpin in the hand as it opened
''oh man. Aren't you a Houdini. What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?''
''plenty, come on''
''aren't you something''
Dez (Pov)
It was in the middle of the night as I reached my house. It was dark but as I opened the lights there were guards
''sorry. Load shit''
Closing the lights again
Austin (Pov)
It was around 7 and we were walking at the Washington square park
''aren't people in Miami always in beaches''
''such stereotyping there not always like that. You're not from here?''
''no sir. My dad is from Miami so technically I'm from Miami''
''so, your dad's from Miami?''
''yes''
''did you ever get to visit?''
''well, we did plant to''
''then?''
She frowned ''as usual, Sophie ruined everything''
''Sophie?''
''my step mom''
''ohh. What about your real mom?''
''I was eight when she passed away in an accident...and it took dad eight days to get married again...''
I started thinking
''what are you thinking about? It happens in life''
''no, I was thinking that the number eight, sure is bad luck for you''
She started laughing
''are your numerologist. I'm guessing you must know how to read palms''
''palms? Give me your feet and I'll tell you your fortune''
Ally laughed again
''alright here you go what does my future hold'' giving me her palm as I held it
''hmm well your wish to go to Miami might come sooner than you think''
''really? When?''
''In about eight days''
As we both laughed
''listen''
''yes?''
''Wanna eat something I'm hungry''
''alright let's get something. wait'' checking her bag
''my wallet''
''where is it?''
She started thinking
''Dez''
''Dez?''
Dez (Pov)
I was sitting on a chair; my hand was tied behind it. The body was getting prepared to kill me. Okay I'm exaggerating
''bro bro, seriously I have no idea where they are bro., we're like bros. Are you from Florida because I'm also- ''
He started punching me twice
''one minute!''
He stopped
''okay fine go for it''
He started punching again
Austin (Pov)
I was standing calling Dez. It was ringing but I have a fact that either he's ignoring me or he lost his phone
''what kind of boss is he? Someone who just deserts you at a time like this'' ally said
''how should I have known...''
I was calling him again
''you wanna eat right?'' ally asked
''yes''
''let's go'' started walking
''where''
''dinner''
''money?''
''you don't need money for everything''
I started laughing hysterically while ally looked at me like I was dumb
''what so funny?'' walking back at me
''that's what all rich people say''
''what''
''that you don't need money for everything''
''is that so''
''yes''
She started walking back again ''we'll see'' as I walked behind her
…
We both ran back laughing hysterically
''what are you?'' I laughingly said
'' I wonder what he's thinking, we ate the dessert but that guy had to pay for it''
This made us laugh even more hysterically
''okay, let's go let's go let's go'' ally quickly said
''where?''
…
''don't open your eyes until I say so'' ally said
''where are you taking? Don't push me, okay?'' I muttered
''now. Open your eyes''
As I opened my eyes to see the most beautiful sight ever. What do they call those? The northern lights. I was speechless
''if you are fortunate enough to see 11:11 on the clock, it means. That the universe is sending you a message. That no matter what. You don't need to fear anything. You're on the right path. And no matter how difficult times are, one day you will find your true calling of your destiny'' her voice was gentle and soft
I looked into her eyes. Then the sky. I realized we were in a small tower
Ally sitting down ''so. Mr. Austin, tell me something. How much money for an experience like this''
As I sat next to her
''can I ask you something?''
She nodded
''Your dad has given you everything...then why are you running away from it?''
''yes. He did give me everything. Except for what I really wanted''
''what did you want''
''an assurance... that perhaps that I'm the most important thing to him in the world. Not his business or his money... and sometimes, I need a hug''
''hug?''
''cuddle''
''oh, a cuddle always nice''
I notice she was shivering
''sometimes it gets very cold around here''
I took my jacket out while she's trying to warm her hands. She notices I was taking my jacket out. And I slowly out the jacket on her. We were so close now so I stayed. Now I'm shivering
''you were right, it is cold here''
The next day
We were sleeping. ally's head was on my phone rang that woke me up. It was from Mr. Starr. I looked at ally.
I slowly put her head to the wall next to her. I got up and answered the call
''hello''
''don't you 'hello' me. I've been trying to reach you for so long. Where the hell are you idiots. Is the job done yet''
''it's done, Mr. Starr. Ally's with me'' I said emotionlessly
''oh Austin. Very good! When are you coming?''
''soon''
''hurry up Austin. Very good! Well done!
Dez (Pov)
I felt dizzy and tired. Mr. Dawson came sitting in front of me
''are you married?''
I shook my head
''have kids?''
I shook my head again
''I have a daughter. And I'd do anything for her
What the hell is he talking about? How do I get out of here? If I jump out of this window, I'll break my eggs because there's a truck down there not of eggs but some damn rods. I looked at the door to my right side unfortunately body guards. Well, I guess I'll just have to listen to him.
''did you get it''
I nod my head
''now tell me''
''what?''
''where is my daughter''
''I don't know, I swear! I never lie! Every child in New York knows I don't say lies! I'm telling you the truth! I don't know where they are!''
My phone started ringing as the bodyguard gave my phone to Mr. Dawson
''Austin. Don't try to act smart. Tell him to stay where he is and that you'll be there in fifteen minutes''
He answered the call
''Dez you son of a -
''Austin listen to me, where are you?''
''I'm on the roof right next to the clock tower at town square''
''alright you stay right there, I'll be there in fifteen minutes. Don't move, okay?''
''yea okay. If you disappear this time, I'll-
Mr. Dawson hung up the call
''is that fine?''
''take him along'' says to the bodyguard
''yes, take me along I'll get bored. we'll catch that son of a bitch together! Easy on the hand!
And he punched me. Again
Ally (Pov)
I woke up. Stretched my arms
''there you go, some hot tea''
''how did you know that I'd want some hot tea when I wake up?''
''you like tea?''
''yeah''
''oh man wait till you try the tea my mom makes''
''if your ever in Miami, I'll treat you some''
''you live in Miami?''
''yea''
''I thought you might've moved here''
''why would I move here? You know once you live in Miami you can't live anywhere else. Dez just calls me here for pulling some jobs. Once I'm done, I go back. Oh, that reminds me! We found Dez! he's almost here''
''oh. Wow. great''
''then you can go off to your friend and I'll go off to Miami to my ma''
''shall we go?''
''to miami?''
''downstairs''
''oh''
…
As we went down the tower. We froze. It was my dad and his bodyguards and they got Dez
''run!'' Austin yelled
