Lucas's POV
*Situation? Please don't tell me Riley is actually pregnant. *
*No! God no! *
Riley pregnant? Kids? That's something we need to talk about.
*So? *
*It's better if you came over. *
*I'll be there in five.
On the dot, Maya was at the front door.
"So Huckleberry?"
"Yeah look at this." I show her the messages.
She reads through them, horror growing like a wart in her eyes.
"What in the living hell..." She whispered.
"Whoever is doing this is also calling me..."
"Hey Huckleberry I can tell by the text-"
The phone rings in her hand and I grab it to answer the call.
"Ah Mr. Friar," A weirdly familiar voice said. "Your lost soul screams once again..."
"LUCAS!"
"RILEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO HER?"
"LUCAS THE FACT-!"
The line cuts off.
"Fact?"
"I think she meant to say factory..."
"Factory? Which one?"
"Does it look like I know Huckleberry?"
*Your lost soul shouts to you, Mr. Friar. *
*I still don't understand why you're doing this or who you are. *
*I already told you, Mr. Friar. I am nothing less than another lost soul and as to why I'm doing this; well sometimes you have to have some fun right? *
*Sick bastard. *
*Ahh Mr. Friar Your lost soul is safe... *
Tears began to stream down again.
*For now. Have a wonderful evening Mr. Friar. Oh and don't forget Mr. Friar; Stealing is a sin. *
"What the hell? Lucas..."
I was crying like a baby at this point. Whoever is doing this is just wants to have fun? What kind of sick bastard does that? My poor Riley...
"Dude you'll be okay. Riley will be okay too," Ian said sympathetically.
"Ian?"
"Hi Maya. You guys aren't at each other's necks... Wow."
"Yeah. Yeah. We bonded. Blah blah blah, back to the more important stuff. We need to find Riley."
"Lucas... There are thousands of factories in New York, not to mention the ones outside of New York."
"Well we better start-"
A knock on the door interrupts my train of thought. Deep down inside, I was hoping it was Riley smiling from ear to ear. Or maybe riding in on a horse with a horn taped to the front while she shouts 'I'M ON A UNICORN!'...
"Farkle!" Maya shouts.
"Farkle?" Ian and I say in unison.
"That's my name," Farkle retorts with a goofy smile.
"DUDE! Where have you been?" I ask kind of excited. I hadn't seen the guy in like 5 years. "You disappeared on us!"
"Haha." He scratches the back of his head. "Yeah I've been everywhere. Last summer I went to the Bahamas and then I went to Greece for my birthday and then-"
"Farkle? Man I love you but you kind of came at a bad time..."
"Huh? Where's Riley?"
Silence. No one said a word and when I looked up, Maya and Ian both had put down their heads just like me.
"Hello?" Farkle asks.
Instead of answering like a normal human, I pull out my phone from my pocket and show him the messages. We all watch as his face wrenches with utter horror at what was happening.
"When did this happen?"
"It's happening," Maya and I say in unison.
"WHAT THE HELL WHY?"
We all shrug, even Ian who's barely been a part of Riley's life.
"Well let's start tracking the phone."
"We've tried."
"Well not with me you haven't. Give me the phone and a laptop."
Farkle got to work in a matter of minutes.
"The GPS encryption code should be around here somewhere..." I chose to ignore the rest.
"As long as it gets us to Rile-"
"BINGO!"
"You found it already?" I scream.
"Do you expect anything less?"
"What are you? A human computer?"
"Some would say to some extent, person-I-don't-know."
"Ian."
"Farkle."
"Enough of the bromance bonding between you two! We need to save my best friend," Maya scolded as if they were her children.
"Is this the address?" I ask.
"Yeah. You go get the car ready. I have to call my woman."
"You have a girlfriend?" Maya and I exclaim.
"Pshh. No I don't have a girlfriend."
"Then?"
"I have a wife."
"What?" Maya and I scream.
"And two kids," He mentioned proudly.
"WHAT?" We scream once again.
"Look enough of the almost silent judgment," he scolded sarcastically. "Go get the damn car ready."
"Yes sir, Mr. Dad sir." I mock him and Maya chuckles.
"Shut up and go!"
"Right."
Farkle was a dad and a husband. What an eventful day. I turn on the car and wait for everybody. After a damn eternity, Farkle walks down with Maya.
"Where's Ian?"
"Something about how we should do it because we are all closer to Riley," Farkle commented.
"Oh."
"LET'S BLOW THIS POPSICLE STAND BOYS. WE HAVE A GIRL TO SAVE."
We drive off in the night to who knows where and in my heart all I hope for is to have Riley back in my arms.
