The Bet

Unknown Caller

Jason POV

For the last two days I haven't seen Alyson at all. I've texted and called her but nothing. I still haven't gone to her house. Her parents probably don't know anything about me.

Instead of going to school I go to her house. I want to check on her I want to know that she is alright. I know that she doesn't want to see me but I just want to make sure.

I get out of my car and head to the door, I knock twice and wait there.

I hear footsteps approaching. A woman opens the door she has a napkin on her hand and wiping her tears. Something pops in my head but I hope that nothing has happened to Alyson.

"Yes?" She says sniffling in her napkin

"Sorry Mrs. López for disturbing but I'm looking for Alyson she hasn't been to school lately and I just wanted to check on her" I explain

"You're Jason right?" She asks

"Yeah"

"Alyson speaks highly of you and every time she says your name she smiles at the thought of you" she smiles

I couldn't believe it for a moment. I made her happy but ended up disappointing her. I am so stupid I wish I could take everything I did at the party back.

"We were going to contact you but we didn't know anything about you" she says

"Why?" I ask feeling worried

"Alyson hasn't been back ever since the party" she cries

At first I wanted to believe that I heard wrong but I know that I heard clearly. She's been missing for the last two days but where would she go or who would have taken her. I don't even want to believe that someone had taken her.

"Have you called the police?" I ask

"No because we were hoping that she was with you but I see that she isn't" she cries even more

"Call the police right now we have to look for her" I say "Here is my number if you find her or any clues call me as soon as possible" I say getting a piece of paper and putting my number in it.

I get in my car but I don't even know where to go.

A while later my phone started ringing. The caller was unknown but I answer.

"Hello?" I say

"Alex" no one knew that name, anyone that knew it was dead. It was impossible. My mother kept hiding something from me and I want to find out what maybe this is it. I know that someone out there knows me, knows my true identity.

"Who's this?" I say in a strict voice

"Not even a how are you or anything I guess they haven't teached you manners" he says

"I'm not going to repeat it again, Who. Is. This"

"Let's talk in person" he says

"And why would I agree to do that?"

"Because I have your lovely Alyson" he says.

I couldn't drive I had to park myself. How could he know me and Alyson. Why would he do this? I don't even know the guy. I couldn't just stay here if he actually had her I had to save her no matter what.

"If you don't believe me then here you go" he says. I wait a moment and then I hear Alyson pleading for me to help her.

"Jason! Jason! Please help me!" She cries.

"You let her go you fucking bastard!" I scream. I hit the steering wheel. I couldn't bear hearing her crying. I have to help her no matter the cost.

"Now now don't scream, I'll meet you at the place where you killed two of my men" he says and hangs up.

For a moment I didn't know what he was talking about but then I remembered. Mike and I had to help get the packet and we did get it but we never knew what it was for.

It barely clicked me, he is one of the gang members of El Chueco but wouldn't El chueco know about what one of his men were doing. Unless he himself is involved but either way I have to meet him to help Alyson.

That bastard is going to go to hell if he even puts a finger on her.
