Chapter 30
The room Wil was in was locked from the outside. He’d pounded it as hard as he could, but he was tired, he was beaten, he needed a fix. Not to mention the fact that his mind couldn’t process all that had just happened.
Alyn had been sleeping with him? For work?
It seemed a ridiculous notion to him, but he knew she hated her boss and was always trying to get one over on him.
But why would she do this to herself just to show him up?
And God, she’d found out he was a drug addict and a dealer. Her face … it said it all. She was disappointed in him. She was angry at him. She probably didn’t want to see him again and he wouldn’t blame her. He’s a stupid, useless junkie that just fucked everything up for another fix. One more line. One more smoke. Just one more. Just one more just cost him his life, literally and figuratively. He knew Jake was going to hurt Alyn. Like, really hurt her. And the fact that he couldn’t get out of the room and attempt to look for her made it even worse. They’d left nearly half an hour ago. If Jake had chucked her in a car and driven somewhere, they could be clear out of Seattle by now. Or worse, she could be dead already. She could be in the sea, drowning. She could have been shot in the head, just like Nick. Oh God. He hoped, stupidly, that if she had been killed, it was quick.
And he fucking hated himself for thinking like that.
What kind of life had he got into where he hoped his girlfriend was shot rather than anything else? What kind of fucked up shit is that?
He paced the room, punching the walls, shouting in anger.
“Let me out! Fucking let me OUT! Jake, you cocksucker, when I get out of here I’m going to kill you!”
He heard a key get pushed into the door, and nearly pissed his pants at the thought of Jake being there, hearing what he just said. He was a mess, he couldn’t fight anyone. He probably couldn’t have fought off a cold if one came his way.
He nearly collapsed through relief when JD came into the room.
“JD, thank God, thank God its you. We have to find her. He took her JD! He took her and – oh – we have to go now,” JD stared at him, not moving or speaking. “JD, we have to go. What are you just standing there for?”
“First, Wil, shut the fuck up. Second, shut the fuck up. Got it?” Wil nodded, not quite sure where this was going. “It just took me half an hour to persuade some other blood hungry bastards that I should take care of you, don’t blow it now.”
“What are you -?”
“You’re meant to be fucking shot man. I’m saving your ass right now, you owe me. I had to convince them that we weren’t gay for twenty minutes. Drugs really fuck up your intelligence man.”
Wil allowed a small laugh. “Yeah, they do.”
“What’s going on with Alyn? Wait, no, forget it. Tell me on the way.”
“Where are we going?”
“Well, first, we’re going to put on a really convincing display as we leave here. Like, you’re gonna be crying and begging for mercy and I’m going to drag you out, aiming a gun at your face. If you want to like, piss yourself too, that’d really push it up a notch. You might get nominated for an Oscar.”
“Just what I always wanted.”
“Right. And then we’re gonna get in a car out front, I’m gonna drive and you’re going to tell me where to find your woman and the crazy motherfucker who took her.”
“But I don’t know where they are, where they could have gone.”
JD cocked the gun, looking down the barrel. “Well then, you better get psychic and fast. Come on then, let’s go. Don’t forget what I said, Wil. Oscar performance. Then we might just make it out of here alive.”
**
They did make it out of there alive. Wil didn’t piss himself, but he cried like a baby on the way out. JD poked him in his eyes stupidly hard before they left the room, and it genuinely hurt. JD shoved the gun in his face on the way out like he said he would, and he shouted things and felt generally completely stupid. They must have looked stupid too. This guy crying his eyes out, barely being able to see, being dragged out by a guy that looked more uncomfortable being near a gun than a nun being near Mardi Gras.
JD’s car was small and old but it worked, and it got them around faster than if Wil had went on foot.
“So, where do we go?”
“Christ, I don’t know. Where do you go if you’re a crazed drug Lord wanting to take revenge on someone?”
“Well, I guess not that way,” JD swerved the car into the right lane from the left. “That’s the way to the jail.”
Wil grunted in reply. He was kind of growing tired of JD’s attempts at humour. This situation was really not funny. As much as he appreciated his help, he just wanted to find her.
“In all seriousness, I doubt they’d have gone that way. I mean, that’s the way to the town centre. How – where – could you hide there?”
“So you’re thinking somewhere small, secluded?”
“Well, my detective skills ain’t up to scratch, I’ll be honest with ya,” he swerved again, taking a left. The road sign told him they were heading towards the Columbia center. “But hey, I like CSI as much as the next guy.”
“Don’t investigators usually go in after they’ve killed the person? I’m hoping we get there before that shit goes down.”
“Yeah, me too. You really like her, huh?”
Wil nearly blushed. “Well. Yeah. I love her, JD.”
He gave a low whistle. “Love? That shit’s serious.”
“That’s why we have to find her. I can’t let him take her from me like that. Bad enough they’ve been fucking ever since we met.”
JD slammed the brakes on, causing the car behind to honk his horn, and then give JD the finger as he drove around them.
“Tell me you’re messing with me.”
“I wish I was.”
“She’s been fucking him?”
“Yeah. For work. Would you believe it?”
“Work? What kind of work? She a prostitute or something?”
Wil frowned. “She’s a reporter.”
“Jesus,” JD put the car into drive, and started the engine again. “They must have been desperate for a story if that’s how low she had to go.”
“I don’t know why she did it. I didn’t even have any idea, man. How do you hide something like that?”
“I guess you managed to hide the fact that you’re an addict?”
“Well – I mean – yeah I did but –“
“Then why are you surprised she hid something from you?”
“I didn’t fuck anyone for my drugs.”
“Oh, that’s okay then.” Wil stared blankly, and JD rolled his eyes. “Sarcasm, Wil. If I were you, I wouldn’t be too hung up on it.”
“I can’t get it out of my head. I guess that counts as being hung up on it.”
“All I can say is he without sin yadda yadda something about stones.”
Wil looked out of the window. He knew JD was right, but he didn’t want to think rationally right now. Nothing about this situation was rational.
The lights of the sea front flashed before them.
“Where are you going?”
“I don’t know. I’m just driving around. Look out for her.”
“Yes, JD, I’m sure Jake will have her out on display, a neon sign flashing above her that says, ‘She’s here’.”
“Fuck you. Just look okay?”
“What should I be looking for?” JD looked out of his window, looking like he knew something Wil didn’t. “What, JD?”
“Someone said Jake took Frank with him.”
“Fr … Frank? No. Oh fuck, no.”
He thought back to what she had said. Frank had tried to hurt her in her own apartment – he was sure he’d hurt her in a situation like this. Shit, he could be doing anything to her right now. And last time she only got out of it because of –
“JD!” Wil suddenly shouted. “You went to her apartment, didn’t you?”
JD sighed, chewing the inside of his lip for a second before he looked back at Wil. “I thought you were dead. I just did what you wanted me to do.”
“You knew she was fucking Jake?”
“No! Well, I … I mean, I saw her there once or twice. I thought she was looking for you.”
“This is so messed up.”
“Look, I’m sorry, Wil. But this isn’t about what I knew then. It’s about getting your girl back, and I swear I’m gonna, even if it kills me.”
“You’re lucky I don’t kill you,” he said, teeth gritted. “You knew she was there. You knew she hung around that evil place and you didn’t think to mention it to me?”
“Your pedestal is growing mighty high for a guy who hid his drug addiction from someone he supposedly loves.”
Wil crossed his arms, falling back in his seat. “There’s no ‘supposedly’ about it.”
“Let’s just stop arguing with each other and find that crazy fuck, before he hurts her.”
They drove in silence. Wil stared desperately out of the window, trying to find Alyn’s face in the crowds. She was in her underwear, scared, confused. Jake wasn’t going to parade her around. He was going to take her somewhere, hide her. He was just as concerned that Frank was there. He tried something before, who’s to say he wouldn’t again?
“You don’t think he’d like Frank … you know. I know he tried it before.”
JD took too long replying, and when he said, “Naw, man, he wouldn’t. I really don’t think he would.” Wil found himself thinking it was insincere.
“If he touches her …”
“Jake wouldn’t want any evidence linking this back to him. He wouldn’t let Frank leave DNA on her.”
“Jake probably knows fuck all about DNA. He probably just thinks that as long as it isn’t his come on her, who cares.”
“Hm,” JD didn’t look convinced. He stopped at a red light, near the Columbia center. “I guess. No, Wil. I don’t think he’d let Frank do it. I mean, if anything, he’d want all the fun – ah. I didn’t mean …“
“You’re right. That’s what I’m afraid of.”
They started nearing the docks, and passed a block of old warehouse buildings by the front.
“Wil, I’m gonna find them, okay? I promise. And when we do, I’m gonna kill Jake and I’m gonna kill Frank and you and Alyn can go off somewhere and have a family or whatever it is you lovers do.”
“I don’t know if Alyn wants kids,” he admitted. “I mean we haven’t talked about it. I suppose we could talk about it in the future. But we’ve only just got together, I don’t know if she’d-“
“- Wil.”
“I mean, kids are a big step, aren’t they?”
“Wil!”
“What?”
“I think I can see Frank’s car.”
