Chapter 2:
"Matt I'll explain everything on the way but we have to leave now," Jeff told him, trying to reason with his brother.
"Fine," Matt replied, handing over the keys before handing over the keys and putting his seatbelt on.
In less than thirty seconds after Jeff had started the car Matt had already begun asking questions about Shannon.
"Jeff is Shannon okay? Is someone after him? Who is it Jeff? Damn it Jeff just tell me!" Matt didn't necessarily want to know the answers to his questions but knew that he needed to.
"I don't know," Jeff answered.
"What the fuck do you know then Jeff?!" Matt yelled at his little brother, getting pissed off that Jeff wasn't telling him anything.
Jeff looked over at Matt and sighed, "Matt I'll tell you everything okay? But give me a minute to think alright?" He asked, looking away from him.
"Fine," Matt snapped, trying to calm himself down and think straight.
Jeff answered his cell phone when it rang without even glancing at the caller ID. "Hello?" He spoke into the phone, not really wanting to talk to anyone at the moment.
"Jeff?" Shannon asked in a small voice.
"Shannon?! Shannon where the hell are you?! Are you okay?" Jeff yelled into the phone.
"Jeff…Help me…please before he comes back, please I can't take anymore," Shannon cried into the phone, although it sounded like he was trying to be quiet so that he wouldn't get caught.
"Shannon are you okay?" Jeff asked, concerned.
"No!" Shannon sobbed on the other end of the line.
"Shannon where are you?" asked Jeff, trying to take one step at a time and be as calm as possible in the situation.
"In a basement, Jeff hurry!" Shannon begged him.
"Do you know who the person is?" Jeff asked, hoping that Shannon would know.
"It's…it's M…" Shannon got out before his kidnapper walked in. Jeff could hear him over the line.
"Kid, you son of a bitch, I told you not to use the phone and now you're gonna get it you little fuckin' slut," Jeff heard the man yelling at Shannon before all he could hear was Shannon screaming and pleading and the phone went dead.
"Shannon! Shannon!" Jeff screamed into the phone, panicking hysterically he began to cry.
"Jeff what happened? What did Shannon say?" Matt asked, feeling panic twisting in his chest. He'd never seen Jeff freak out like this before and didn't know what was happening, he didn't know what Shannon had said. He knew nothing.
Jeff just cried harder, pushing his foot down on the gas.
"Jeff slow down," Matt told him, trying to get him to calm down, they were on the highway and Jeff was going about 90 MPH.
"Jeff stop the car," He ordered when the first request didn't work. His brain was working on overload and he was finding it hard to think at this point.
Jeff listened, pulling over he came to a complete stop, trying to calm himself down. "Matt it's all my fault, all my, all my fault!" He sobbed out, leaning over the wheel.
"What's your fault?" Matt asked, trying to get Jeff to tell him what was going on. He was beyond confused now.
"I didn't mean for it to go this far," Jeff stated, crying so hard now he might make himself sick.
"Didn't mean for what to go this far?" Matt asked, trying to get some answers. 'How is this his fault? He didn't do anything,' He thought.
"It was just a joke! Shannon played a joke on me and I wanted to get him back! I didn't mean for this to happen, I swear Matt, I didn't mean for Shannon to get hurt," Jeff cried out.
Matt had never seen his little brother like this before.
