Sunflower

Chapter 19

Stefan's POV

I went straight home after seeing Emily.She went on a date with that jerk,Jackson.I am boiling with anger.Why would she go on a date with him?She is making a huge mistake.I wanted to tell her shocking news that my father found out and that I want to tell her everything I was hiding from her .But after seeing her so beautiful dressed and Ethan come walking in,I felt like leaving.After I got home,I grabbed a bottle of whiskey from the kitchen cupboard and went to my room.

I set music on loud and started drowning the whiskey.I was keeping a big secret all a long from Emily.Since the day dad start with their case,I knew about it all.Dad did not keep is work private at home and I did not want to snoop but after it grabbed my attention,I want to know more.I could tell Emily did not know a lot of her father nor what he was involved with.Dad was working late at the office and I was alone drowning the whiskey all on my own.I fell onto my bed staring at the roof of my bedroom.Why did I fell in love with Emily?Or why did I hide everything from her.I was so afraid that she might break down and hate me for keeping it all to myself.

I took another sip from the whiskey.The music was loud and I was singing a long.I then felt my phone buzzing in my pocket.I checked the caller Id and saw it was Chloe.I was not in any mood to talk her.I throw my phone to the other side of the bed and continued listening to the music and enjoying the whiskey.(The phone rang again and this time it was not Chloe.)

Ethan's POV     

I got home and mother was in panic and stress.She called David and everyone she knew in town if they may have seen Emily.I headed to my room and searched for my black box in my underwear drawer.As soon as I got it I opened it and took out my pistol.I loaded it and stuck between my back and belt hiding it with my shirt.I then pulled my black hoodie over  me and collected my phone and car keys with Emily's wallet.

When I headed downstairs mother sat on the coach with David next to her.When we made eye contact,David stood up placing his hand on his gun that is on his side.Mother's eyes was full of tears.I stood in my place not sure what is going on."Ethan boy,why don't you come sit down so that we can talk."David said slowly walking up to me and also carefully.Mother did not say a word.David pointed to the open sofa in the far corner.I stepped one step backwards giving a questioning look."Why,what is going on?"I asked standing my ground.Mother stood up and start to cry.David then pulled is gun out and carefully pointed towards me."Do not make this difficult Ethan.Sit down."He said pointing with his gun,to the open sofa once again. 

"Ethan please do as he say,please Ethan."She said crying heavily.I then looked at David and then I knew that David know.I  looked at mother and mouthed,I am sorry.Then I made a run for it to my car.David was right behind me."STOP ETHAN!!ETHAN STOP!!!"Is all I heard from David and Mother.As I reached my car I jumped in and start the engine.David gave two shots in my  direction,but missed  since I was already in the car.I drove off recklessly and was speeding much faster then I ever did.David shooting behind me.

I drove off to the barn to meet up with the boys,and hopefully they have some news on Emily's where about.I also contacted my gang from here to search for her or any leads they might find.I could let David and Mother distract me from finding Emily.I know that they might find out about me being part of a gang not to make matters worse,but also the same gang who killed my father.As I arrived at the barn.I checked my phone for any messaged but none expect for Milly's messages.I speed walked up to the barn.

There was a whole group of guys standing around talking,some smoking and others busy on their phones.As I entered Zak and Kyle come walking up to me.Everyone went silent."We checked our base and also the hide out points,we did not find anything."Zak said.I was getting more and more concerned.Kyle then said,"We heard that Charles are keeping her hostage.His best guys guarding her we do not know exactly where but our tech guy are running some data from the camera's on the street."I did not say anything and started to dig into a plan.

"I got something."A guy shouted from the other side of the barn.He was standing with a few other guys assuming his friends.I made my way towards him."What did you find?"I asked when I reached him.He then lifted up a black sports bag. Zak took the bag from the guy and opened it up.There was school clothes,shoes,a wallet and some other small things."This must be Jackson's bag and stuff.If he left it here,it then means he would come back for it."Kyle said.I then looked over at the other guys.They all waited for me to say something.

My eyes then caught a figure lurking around the corner near the entrance."Who is there?"I shouted.The figure then made a run for it.Me and the guys rushed outside.We then run after him.A smaller guy tripped the figure and he fell hard to the ground.The other guys grabbed him by his neck bringing him closer to me."Jackson."I said when he stepped into the light.He did not say a word and looked afraid."Where is Emily?"I said furious.He still did not move or say a word.I then grabbed him and dragged him to the barn.I throw him on the old wooden chair and gave one hard punch in his face.He flinch from my punch and grabbed his now bleeding nose."Fuck!!"He shouted in pain.

"Now let me ask you again Jackson.Where is Emily?"I asked once more kneeling down to be eye level with Jackson.He was in great pain."I do not know."He said looking down still holding his bleeding nose.I studied him.He was lying I just know it."Do you want me to break  your arm or leg next?"I asked staring into his eyes.He did not move and did not say a word."Well boys I know you boys like to break things.And I believe you all are in a mood to get your frustrations out. Aren't you boys?"I asked.The boys all shouted in anger in agreement.I then looked over at Zak.He nodded and walked up to Jackson grabbing his arm."ALRIGHT!!ALRIGHT!!I will tell you."Jackson shouted.

I handed Jackson a napkin for his nose.He took it from me and held it up to his nose saying,"All I know is that I get a lot of money out of this.They asked me to become friends with Emily and then ask her out on a date and give her a good time afterwards they will pick her up here.They did not say anything else."Jackson said.I studied him again."That must only be Charles.He does things like that.Bring innocent people into his business."Kyle said.I then looked over at the tech guy."Did you find anything?"I asked walking up to him to check his progress."I got some leads.All of them leads to this address.I believe that this is where they might hide."He said writing down the address on a small paper.

I then looked at Zak and Kyle.They gathered everyone's attention.As I waited I checked my phone.No messages,I then throw my phone on the ground and stepped onto it ,breaking it."Boys,gather everything you need.We are going in with all we got.I need my sister safely home. Zak and Kyle you have to take her home when you have her.The rest of the boys.We need to wipe out that whole gang.Are you in?"I asked.The boys all looked at each other and nodded."Let's move out!!"I shouted.Everyone gathered their things and headed out driving off.I let Jackson go before gathering all they boys and telling them our plan.

"Zak and Kyle!I need you to get Emily and get out.Take her home or anywhere safe.Do not worry about me.I will get out.The police are also on my tail.Some how they found out the truth."I said. Zak and Kyle both nodded in understanding.

Afterwards we headed out...
