The boy with the grey eyes

Familiar places

"What?", I spat back into the phone

"Two places two hours, your girlfriends and one and your moms in the other, one will explode at the end of two hours, better choose the right one cause you can't save them both", the line went dead as I stood there, frozen, until I heard the clock ding, one hour, shit, I looked down at my phone to see a message, two addresses

'309 Andersonville drive'

And

'666 Nuvara drive'

Then the rest of the text said:

'Better hurry, time is running short one is gunna die',

I pulled myself together really quick in that moment, I turned and ran out my bedroom door and ran down the stairs into the living room where I saw the guys and slim sitting, they looked up at me

"McCann what's wrong it looks like you've scene a ghost", I opened my mouth and tears pooled my eyes, I quickly closed it before opening it again

"They took Nala", slim shot up

"WHAT?!",

"They took her, and my mom, two addresses one hour, one will die, I can only have one", the rest of the boys stood up

"No you can save both, we split up", I shook my head

"NO!", I barked back

"They said no help", I finished

"What are the addresses", jake asked

"'309 Andersonville drive' and '666 Nuvara drive", I said

"Nuvara's closer", Maz said with his arms crossed

"That's probably where they put my mom, they would want me to think Nuvara is closer so that's where the put Nals they probably put her in Andersonville", I rushed out my words and turned towards the door,

"What", I turned around and slim handed me a envelope

"Give this to her", I nodded and rushed out the door, I got into my car and rushed down the roads twisting and turning, until I pulled up to the address, I go out and checked the time

10 minutes

I ran into the building, the door slammed behind me

"NALA", I screamed, nothing,

I started to run down the halls turning and looking in doors, until I came to a metal room at the end of a hall, I heard a girl crying I opened it to see a girl with her hair in front of her face, her eyes pierced through me

Mom

I was at the wrong place, I thought wrong

"Shit", I mumbled

I ran over to her and started to untie her

"Justin you came to save me...", she whispered

"Yeah well it was a mistake...i thought Nala was gunna be here, let's just get you out of here okay", I spat as I untied the last knot, I pulled her up by her forearm and we through the twisting and turning halls, he ran out the rusted over door and I threw her on the ground

"JUSTIN WHAT THE HELL", she nagged her voice cracking, I threw myself on the ground shielding her and counts in my head

'10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1'

Nothing, I stood up pulling my mom up with me, I smiled, there was no explosion anywhere else either, Nala was safe, I can still save her...

BAM

orange filled the sky

I dropped to my knees and started to ball

"NO NALA",
