The Devil is Marvelous

Chapter 56

-Jaxon's POV-

I left Ava's house on a mission. There was one person I knew would help me out, and 15 minutes later I ended up outside of his house. I marched up the driveway and up the front door. First I tried knocking, but that turned into pounding when no one answered.

A few minutes later, the door opened and I was greeted by a half naked girl with an irritated facial expression.

"Jaxon?"

"Whitney?" senior cheer Whitney Deveraux stood in the doorway in one of Jet's T-shirts that barely covered her red panties. She wasn't too shy about it either.

For christ sake.

"Don't even fucking tell me he's getting laid right now" I groaned.

"Wow, someone's salty!" she exclaimed, "Let me guess, who haven't had sex since you were with Payton." She smirked, biting her lip. "Care to join us?"

I threw up in my mouth.

"Hard pass" I muttered, pushing past her.

"JET!" I called out, my voice echoing throughout his house.

"Seriously Jaxon? We're busy!" Whitney huffed, slamming the door. I ignored her, rushing through the living room and up the stairs to his bedroom. I covered my eyes before barging in.

"WHOA!" Jet exlaimed. "What gives?"

"Are you clothed?" I asked, facing the wall.

"Not exactly. I was about to meet Whitney downstairs-"

"PUT SOME FUCKING CLOTHES ON!" I shouted. He was mumbling to himself, but eventually told me he was decent. I spun to face him, and he looked pissed. "Seriously man this better be fucking good because I was getting ready for round two-"

"I don't need details" I interruped. "Also, why Whitney? That hard headed bitch?"

"Excuse me!" Whitney gasped, entering the room. "I'm thoroughly offended!"

"I thoroughly don't care" I shot Jet a look, and thankfully he took the hint. "Sorry Whit, you have to leave."

"What! You're kidding right?"

"Sadly no" he said, frowning at me.

She rolled her eyes, stomping around the room picking up her clothes. "Whatever. See you tomorrow." I waited until I heard the door slam closed in order to talk.

"Okay, heres the situation-"

"Honestly?" Jet threw up his hands. "You're going to barge in on my hookup, offend her, and continue on like nothing happened? My parents are going to be back from their meetings in San Francisco tomorrow and this was my last free day for a while-"

"I think the boss has Ava's sister."

Jet blankly stared at me for minute before letting his head fall forward. "Shit" he cursed.

"Yeah, shit." I replied, sitting on his carpet. "I don't know for sure, but she's missing and Frank got that stupid fucking internship where she works-"

"Hang on man" Jet shook his head. "You need to fill me in a little. Frank got an internship?"

"Yep. An internship" I made air quotes. Jet snorted. "I didn't expect to hear that. So what does that have to do with Ava's sister?"

"Frank took this internship to get close to Nancy Devonshire, I presume to get the money that her brother Patrick originally owed the boss."

Jet went pale, which happened anytime Patrick or Robert came up. I knew it was a touchy subject for him. It was a touchy subject for both of us.
