Please Don't Leave Me

Chapter 36

"Mom?" I said full of shock.

"Hey" she said.

"No" I said.

"What?" she asked.

"No" I said and took a step away from her.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"Mom don't act like we're stupid" Joseph said stepping in front of me.

"Where is he?" Reece said.

"Who?" mom said.

"GOSH! JASON MOM" I yelled full of anger.

"So thats why you're mad?" she smirked.

"Tell me where he is, or I'll slit your throat where you're standing" Joseph said grabbing a piece of sharp tree bark and holding it to moms neck.

"Now would you do that to your mother?" she said.

I knew Joseph was gonna crack after that. He loves her, he wouldn't think of killing her.

Sure enough Joseph dropped the tree bark and stepped back.

"Who even is Jason" she asked.

"Mom we don't have time for your games" I said.

"Okay, I didn't kill you, but I will get an answer out of you" Joseph said and started tying her up with a rope.

IGGYS POV

Oh my gosh. GET ME FREAKING OUT OF HERE!

Who knows what's going on in my friends lives right now. Ya know, depending on how long I've been in here they're all probably married by now.

"It hasn't been that long" Jason said and came over and crouched down beside me.

"How did you know what I was thinking?" I asked him. Holy crap.

"I know a lot of things baby" he said and grabbed my face and kissed me.

I tried stopping him but I couldn't. Finally he stopped.

ALANAS POV

"Mom COMON! we will get answers out of you." I said.

"Talk" Joseph said.

"Okay, I don't know why I'm here" she said.

"Oh my gosh! Okay so you told us that you couldn't hang around home anymore because Reece moved in after he killed Hannah." I reminded her.

"You said you were going back to California." Reece said.

"You didn't go back to California did you" Joseph said.

"GOSH NO! Okay?! I didn't go back to California" she yelled.

"Where did you go?" Liberty said.

Nothing.

"Mom" I said.

Nothing.

"Mom!" Joseph yelled.

"I came here! okay I came here! To work with somebody" she said.

I knew exactly what was going on. "You knew Jason took Iggy, you know where she is right now, holy freak you're helping him" I said.

Joseph looked at me then back at mom.

"Is that true?" he asked her.

She sighed. "yes. Okay yes."

"Mom she's my best friend!" I yelled.

"I can't stand her! she's always so picky and she's way too loud" she said with a disgusted face.

"So you kidnap her" I said.

"She did something too" she said.

"Okay. I'm not putting up with this crap, we need to go find iggy" jospeh said starting to walk away.

"No Joey wait, I wanna hear this" I said crouching down in front of my mom.

Joseph sighed.

"Well her father did something" she said.

"Just come out with it" Jared said.

"Her father killed your father Alana" she looked at me right in the eyes.

There was a long silence.

Joseph started walking away.

I looked down. "that was 8 years ago" I said.

"HE WAS MY HUSBAND ALANA! IT STILL HAUNTS ME" She yelled crying.

"I loved him. I miss him so much" she said.

"Mom" I said trying to calm her down. "where is Iggy"
