NATHAN'S POV
I wake up and find myself in my bedroom. Which is impossible so I've been abducted but the painting on the wall tells me otherwise. I try to get up from the bed and succeed for five seconds before crashing to the ground. My body feels so numb that I don't even think it's my own body.
I shakily go downstairs to the kitchen to grab a quick bite. While passing through the living room I hear Karen's conversation in the living room from the TV and the topic sounds pretty heated.
"I told you he was attacked what part of that don't you get."
"You are absolutely certain he was attacked by the same inhuman after us."
"I don't know but I have this feeling in my gut and my gut never lies to me."
"So what do you want us to do call the cops. They find out about everything not only the criminal but people behind the scenes of our project. We'll be hunted on two fronts with no safety and Incase you've forgotten That is what killed Jessica." Silence retains its presence for awhile before it is broken again
"We ruined her life and now it's going to be her kid. It's not fair." I could hear a little bit of sobbing
"Listen Karen. He might not be after him but us so don't worry. We can't involve the police no matter what happens."
"We should leave Tennessee." She says.
"We don't know this guy's abilities but if he was powerful enough to bring down that boy and his objective is to hunt down the organization and kill everyone involved in the accident we are not safe anywhere we go because nothing stops him from finding us."
"So we are to stay here and do nothing."
"I'm just saying. Leaving isn't going to solve the problem..."
"But it can buy us time." She interrupts sharply.
"Fine we'll both leave. Keep the boy safe. I'll try contacting them." The man says and hangs up. I don't have to think twice before I know it's me that they're talking about but I didn't quite understand about seventy percent of that conversation so to understand of it. I walk into the room to ask a few questions. When enter she sees me and I can see she looks scared to pieces but before I can ask any questions she started first.
"You are supposed to be in bed for another three to four hours."
"Since when were you a doctor."
"I'm a biochemist an inhuman one for that matter and I've treated cases like yours ."
"Maybe you didn't account for my speed."
"I did,0 this would take an average inhuman about three weeks to heal."
"Then maybe you didn't get your math right."
"Oh really. The last time I checked my math has been flawless." She said observing my weak-kneed style of walking."Now to bed."
AVA'S POV
It's been two days since I saw Nathan. Sandra keeps on saying he's okay but bedridden so I believe her. I'm are having dinner at my house with the entire Chrisland family. Dad is here and he called a family dinner meaning something is about to happen so I come. It's not like I've spent time with my dad since he became a billionaire. He's always travelling. I miss the old family I had it was lovely, peaceful and nice. I wish I could have that again.
"Daddy, I want to go to London." My stupid adorable baby brother Cole is talking. The boy has been blabbering since this dinner started can't he be a little bit civil. It's not like I blame him. He's a seven year old kid what do you expect.
"Speaking of travelling. I want us to leave the country." That came like a bomb shell in my ear. I haven't even dated Sandra's brother plus making friends again is an awful thing.
"Dad why? I mean we are all okay in Tennessee."
"Tennessee is a little bit unsafe. Don't you think, dear?" He says referring to my mom.
" It's not a bad idea so I think I'll go along with it." For her to agree to this so easily means they've planned this long before now and for my Dad to bring it up means he's not he's not asking for my consent.
"Since she's agreed means there's no problem with this so everyone get ready to leave in two weeks time. After your tour Ava we leave." Why does he say it like he expects me to be okay with this.
"I ain't okay with this. Why do we have to go."
"I didn't ask you for your consent. Did I now, Ava? We are going after your school tour to Paris. Period." Who still says period. Sometimes I hate my dad, infact, the whole family. I wish they would disappear and I would just be free. The rest of the dinner goes on in peace while no one cares how pissed off I am. That's the difference between school and home.
When I get to school I don't see anybody I feel like talking to both girl or boy. Normally, if wanted to kill my boredom by meeting boys I'd give them signs to come meet me and when he comes I'd make fun of him. I can't believe that didn't work on Sandra's brother. I really have to get to know something about him. I can't believe I accepted a date with I guy I don't even know his name. At least I know his not gay. That would be a waste of man flesh.
It's lunch time in the cafeteria. I see Sandra sitting with Mason and giggling and blushing and he on the other hand is all over her. On the opposite side of the small roundtable is Kayla the cheerleaders leader and the amazing looking boy in dreads that ditched me during the date. She's resting on his shoulder and stroking his chest while he was caressing her back with his hands and they were all laughing. I don't no why the display of this affection annoyed me but I am not going to complain instead I gonna walk over there and take my man back from her. I walk to them.
"Hi Sandra." I say to attract there attention and bring all eyes on me and if there's one thing about me, I love attention. If you were me you would love attention to. I mean come on, a sexy short brunette like me with sparkling brown eyes and a perfect figure that could make all the boys here go mad . I am so going to get what I want especially with the body hugging crop top and denim jeans and jacket.
"Hi Ava." She replies
" What's making y'all cheerful today because I need some vibes." I say and strategically sit down beside him while giving him a nice view of my ass and a good view of my cleavage after I've sat down.
" We were just laughing about the video of Nathan Audrey I put online. Look how many views it's gotten so far."
"Nathan Audrey?" I ask know I've heard that name before. She gives me the phone instead of watching the video and I see Sandra's brother. Just then realization dawns on me and I look up to the guy in dreads in shock.
"Your Nathan Audrey, as in Nathan Audrey that won the U.S general math competition and won the grand of twenty thousand dollars and the maker of U.S most expensive and best cryptocurrency, Wiz coins."
"Yeah I thought you knew that."
"What the fuck?" I did not see that coming. I was about to date one of the richest boys under seventeen in the U.S and I didn't know. I always knew Sandra's mom was rich but I didn't realize she had a brother swimming in money. How come I didn't recognize him. It must have been the dreadlocks 'cause now that I look at him he looks the same as he was with dreads.
"I thought you already knew and you accepted my date because of that."
"I didn't know if I had known I would have met right from the first time I saw you."
"Sorry I had to blow the date by the way. Something came up. Anyways I've got to do something so catch you guys later." He says and leaves Kayla with a peck on her cheek and I just stand there lost in surprise. I can't believe anybody would do that to me much less a male. A handsome daring male. I'm sure Mason would be laughing in his mind about this whole situation and how stupid I was while he was making out with my best friend in my front.
The day is over and soon the days turns to a week. It's time for the tour. I get inside the bus to pick a comfortable seat for a girl like me to enjoy. I would really love to be seating with Sandra but she's busy making out with her new found boyfriend Mason so I'm left all alone. I pick a seat nearest to the window but they are all occupied by people I don't want be with but then I see Nathan seating beside a window and putting on an earpiece. I decided to seat next to him though I don't really know why. Nowadays I feel as if the actions I take and make are not mine. I go and seat next to him, it's not like anyone hear is better to seat with. I take a seat beside him. I try not to make any attempt to get his attention but he looks so endearing. He looked so busy with his phone and I haven't tried talking to him since the last time we met because of what he said the last time about knowing who he was and following him. He made it feel like I was a slut. I know I act slutty but I don't like people telling me that I gets me annoyed but I feel his not the type of person to care though. Secondly I feel like he should be the one coming after me. We take the bus from Tennessee to New York which is so not cool. I tried to kill the boredom with my phone but that can only distract me for so long. Everyone seemed to be involved in a conversation except the both of us. I turn around and see Mason and Sandra making out and pressing each other at the end of the bus and knowing Sandra, Mason isn't going to be able to handle her once we get down. They look really gross doing that.
"I know, they're disgusting right?" Nathan said jolting me out of my reverie.
"I know right."
"I thought that was meant to be you and Mason."
"It was but I got bored. How did you know that."
"Sandra told me and if I'm being honest I don't like the fact that my sis is dating a player like him."
"Well it's what she wants."
"And your okay with that?"
"Yes"
"Then why seem to have a lot of interest in them or are you jealous she stole your guy? I could help you get him back."
"I don't need him back. Like you said his a player and I've already played him so I'm not interested okay." We end up talking about other things that are unimportant. When we got to New York we went site seeing until we got to the hotel and I was surprised that one room was allocated to one person. Maybe they felt a little generous this time around.
We stayed at the hotel during the tour of to the white house, and seeing the statue of liberty. Though it was boring a bit it did help me get some quality time with Nathan on the bright side.
It's the just two more days left for us to leave New York City so they let us go to the beach on our own to do what we want. When I reached the beach, someone grabbed my by my arm I turned around to look just to see it was Nathan.
"Come on, let's get out of here. I know you don't want to spend time on a beach like this."
"Sure, but where?" I ask liking his idea.
"Just leave that to me." He said and I was quickly whisked away to God knows where. When I opened my eyes we were on top of a hill. Wow, it has such a wonderful view. It felt like a wonderful thing to be a speedster.
"Let's pick up were we left off. I am sorry abandoned the date and also sorry I didn't tell you anything about my speed."
"There's no problem with you not telling me about the speed 'cause you saved my life that other night so I'm willing to let that one slide. What I don't like is the fact you almost got killed in that fire."
"Sorry about that."
"Don't do that again and I won't think of trying to murder you with words
Let's pick up were we left off." I say and give him a perk on his lips. I'm very sure if he hadn't pulled back that would have lead to another situation that I would have loved.
"We haven't reached that yet."
"I see you like to take it slow."
"Yeah. So let's get back to the beginning." He said and we just had a good time. Around twelve midnight we left the hill to the hotel and left for Tennessee the next morning.
*****
When I got home to the front of our gate. The house feels deserted like no one is in there but all the cars are in the garage and the garage door is wide open which is also weird. I go inside the house and this is where the confusion sets in. I get inside and see the entire house ransacked.
"Mom? Dad? Cole? Anybody here." I look around scared and worried knowing something bad had happened. Then I stumble on a piece of paper. It was a note. A blank note with nothing but "Hi" written on it. I drop it then take another look at it again and words start to pop up bit by bit. I read the letter and it said.
You're wish has been granted. I have made your family disappear and granted you the freedom you so desire Ava Chrisland. Your father will pay for his sins but if you want any chance of seeing him again you'll grant me my wish. Until next time.
