Criminal -Neil Westfall-

Chapter Forty Four

Neil

I fall asleep fast, my day was stressful and all I wanted to do was sleep and sleep and sleep. I just wanted to sleep forever. But I knew I couldn't. I had to leave Kat, I had to deal with the guilt of Tyler's death, tell everyone about his death, deal with the fact the government is looking for me and Josh leaving. After all of it, I think I deserve some rest. But of course I didn't get it.

I get a call after about a half an hour of sleeping. "Hello?" My voice weak and unsteady.

"Neil, you're running out of time. I have Trevor over here."

"Andy, I have a day and a half to get Kat to Bismark." I sit up knowing this wasn't going to end well if I said the wrong words. I hear him cock his gun and I tense up bad. I couldn't lose Trevor.

"I changed my damn mind. You know what's funny is that you are in Bismark right now. And if you thought of giving her to me like you said you would, you would've brought her along. But you didn't. Does that mean you weren't going to give her to me? Bring her to me or I shoot Trevor!" He screams over the phone and I take a deep breathe.

"Okay! It's gonna take three hours just for her to get here! I need time." I close my eyes tight hoping not to hear a gun shot.

"You have five hours!" He was about to hang up but I caught him before.

"Andy!"

"What." Her voice was pure evil.

"Trevor needs to call Kat and tell her to come. She won't talk to me. That's the only way you can have her." He hung up the phone not saying another word. I let out a loud growl and slam my phone on the night stand next to me.

Trevor

Andy lowered his gun and looked down at me. I felt like I wanted to pass out, but every time I was going to, I was smacked back to reality. Andy knelt down next to me and picked my chin up so I was face to face with him.

"Listen, I'm not trying to hurt you Trevor. I just want one thing. And I can't get that if you don't call her and tell her something terrible has happened. Can you do that for me?" I listen as best as I could. His words were hard to hear and my vision has become blurry. He slapped me so I could start focusing. "Can you do that Trevor?" I nod slowly in pain. Andy gave a smile and took my phone out of my pocket. He ripped the tape off my mouth roughly. I grunted from more pain. He looked through my contacts and found Kat's name. Once he clicked on it he pressed the phone against my ear and I waited for her to answer listening to the rings.

"H-hello? Trevor? Why are you calling me this late?" Her raspy voice sang through the phone. I shut my eyes praying for forgiveness from God.

"Kat, there has been an accident. I need you to come to Bismark now please-"

"What happened?" Her voice got louder and more worried.

"Just come please. I'll text you the address." Andy taped my mouth up then hung up the phone.

"Thank you. Now I will text her the club house address and you just sit there being pretty." He winked then chuckled at his own joke knowing I looked bloody and swollen. "Have at em boys." He walked out of the door just letting the two masked men pummel me again. And they did, they enjoyed doing it, they enjoyed seeing me in pain and misery.

After a while they got bored and left to hang outside with Andy. They left the door open so they could watch me form the screen door. Even if I could I probably wouldn't have tried to get away. I laid there on the floor. At this point I wish was dead. The pain I felt was just as bad as death, felt near to it. I just wanted to be with my family. My girlfriend was probably worried sick about me, she always has and forever will. She always told me to get out of the club so my son won't grow up to see what I do for a living. She was right, and if I live from this I'm done. I will leave the club. I know I can't but I will. Whatever it takes, just like Josh.

A few hours past or so it felt like a few hours. Andy came back in, did something really fast then yanked me up from the floor. I could barely walk, he got the other two to come and take me to the car they brought. They threw me in the back seat. I hit my head on the door which caused me to black out.

When I was awoken, I was on a cold floor. I look around and Andy was pacing back a forth. "Where is he!?" I heard him yell. His voice echoed through the empty building. It was rusting up, falling apart, and had stained walls. It was hard to keep my eyes open let alone to stay awake. I shut my eyes. But out of no where I felt a boot go into my rib cage. I whimpered in pain and rolled onto my back.

"Open your eyes!" They pop open seeing Andy standing over me with a gun pointed down at me. His face was red, I could tell what was going to happen and I was at peace with it. I gave a weak smile while closing my eyes picturing my family by my side. "I'm sorry this had to happen this way Trevor."
