17.) Disappearing Act

1647 Words
When I start to wake up, I realize instantly that the bed is empty. I jolt up in bed and rub my eyes, scanning the room. Where was Ivy? I get out of bed and see her phone was gone, but her bag was still here. I walk to the bathroom and notice she wasn't anywhere to be found. I quickly pee and run to check my phone. I had no messages from Ivy, but lots from others. Max- You better count your lucky stars that I like Ivy, or else your ass would be grass right now Eli-Venus is at school, she told me to tell you she loves and misses you. Jennifer- Eli told me where you were. Go get your girl man! Ernie- Hope things go well with Ivy! Keep me posted. Aubrie- We are all rooting for you! Tami- Hey we need to talk whenever you get back home. I blink quickly, trying with a failed effort to try and get my eyes to focus. I shake my head and groan. How on earth did I sleep till 1:30? I search for Ivy's contact and give her a call. The phone rings for a minute and goes to voice mail. I sigh and search for Bruce's number. I call his number and he answers after just a ring.  "Hey Wyatt, what's up?"   "Hey man, I was wondering If you knew where Ivy was?"  "She didn't text you? I came by around 7 this morning and went out to breakfast with her and took her to the hospital to see dad. She's in the room with him now." "Oh, okay good. I'll get dressed and come by soon. I was just worried is all."  "It must have slipped her mind. See you soon man." "See you soon, bye." I run a hand through my hair and sigh. I throw my phone on the bed and decide to go and take a shower. I let the hot water pour all over me. This was what I needed. My thoughts and dreams raced with images of Ivy. I wanted her so bad. I missed hearing her scream my name or, even better, daddy. Just the thought of it arouses me and I sigh, looking down. I had to take care of this before I went and saw Ivy. I lean against the fall in front of me and let the water wash over my body. I wrapped my hand around myself and started slowly, letting my mind wander on Ivy's body. How she looked last night underneath that white shirt. I wanted to tear her apart. I wanted to be inside her. I wanted her screaming for me and only me. I wanted to make her feels things she could never feel with another man. I wanted to be everything she desires. I feel myself already growing closer to the edge and I begin to thrust into my hand, trying to imagine it was her. She would look up at me with those big brown eyes, so innocent and deviant. "AH FUCK." I hiss out through gritted teeth as I come hard in my hand. This hit me hard as I grabbed for the wall for support. She did crazy things to me. I take deep breaths and finish up my shower. I get ready, grabbing my keys, wallet, and phone. I ride over to the hospital but on the way, I notice a little coffee shop. I stop and go in, finding it be music-themed with records, posters, and guitars lining the walls. I walk up to the cashier and smile at her. She was quite short with blonde hair. She looked like one of those cheerleader types. Her eyes widen at my appearance and she puts on a kind smile. "Hello sir, welcome to Old Blues Cafe. How can I help you?" I look up at the menu and smile down at her. "I've never been here. What would you recommend?" I ask and she looks behind her, staring at the menu for a moment.  "I think you would enjoy the Strawberry Banana smoothie, they are my personal favorite." She says in a kind tone and I nod. "Sound good to me, can I get four of those please?" I ask and she nods ringing me up. "That'll $4.80 please." She says and my eyes widen. "Wow, some good prices you have here." I say and she chuckles. "My grandpa has been the owner of this place for going on 30 years now and he refuses to change the prices."  I nod at this and hand her a five. I get her a $5 tip while she wasn't looking and she begins to make the smoothies. "That's cool that he's so set in his values though, quite respectable." I say and she chuckles. "More like stubborn. But anyway, where are you from? You said you were passing through town?" She asks and I nod. "Yeah, I'm here with my girlfriend, her father has been in the hospital for quite a while now." I say and she furrows her eyebrows, looking up from the blender. "Is Ivy Lynn your girlfriend?" she asks and I nod smiling. "Yes, how on earth did you know that?" I ask and I hear the bell at the front of the store. "Jamie, can you get me a Carmel coffee stat." I turn my head and my mouth was wide open. "Oh, you have to be f*****g kidding me." I say out loud and Michael lifts his head up from his phone and his eyes narrow. "Ah, Wyatt." He says and puts his phone in his suit pocket. He turn to look at the girl and he smiles at her. "Actually, make it an expresso. I want to talk with my friend here in the back." He says and she nods slowly, "When you're done, your order is ready for pick up." She says and I smile at her. Michael walks past me and opens a door to an outside exit and I follow behind him. We were in an alley behind the building.  "Why are you still in town and why are you at my family's place of business talking to my sister?" He asks and I roll my eyes. "Please, you don't own the town prick. I just stopped by for smoothies. Don't get your panties in a twist. Didn't even know it had anything to do with the Flares." He rolls his eyes and looks me over. " I have a question for you. You'd be a semi-okay looking guy without those tattoos. Why are you with trash like Ivy?" He asks and I roll my eyes. "Don't push your luck prick." I say through gritted teeth and rolls his eyes at me. "Oh yeah and what are you going to do about it?" He asks and I lose control over my thought. I punch him square in the jaw and he tumbles back, grabbing his face. "Oh, you little shit." He hisses at me as he spits out some blood. He stands back up and I grab him by the collar of his shirt, pushing him against the wall.  "  What I could do is ruin your life and hurt everyone you love. What I could do is do to you as you did to Ivy. What I could do is torture you. What I could do is beat you to a pulp. And what would you do? Call the cops. Do you really want that kind of publicity? I'll say it was a hate crime and that it was self-defense. I could do a lot but do you want to know what I am going to do. I'm going to leave here and go to my girlfriend. The girl that you r***d. The girl you impregnated. We are going to have a hot f*****g session and she's going to f**k me like an even better porn star than I am thanks to her daddy issues and s****l trauma. I'm going to bask in the idea, that at any moment. I could ruin your life. Has anyone brought up your r**e allegations in this political campaign? Cause I feel like that would be a real show stopper. Don't cha think?" At the end of my long rant, I had my hand around his throat. He looked absolutely terrified and I loved it.  I let go of him and with him a toothy smile. I adjust his color and brush off the dirt on his suit. "Now, why don't we go back inside smiling huh?" I ask and he looks at me in amazement. "You're perfect for each other. You're both crazy." He says and I place a small slap to his jaw. "Don't make me gut you like a fish. Come on buddy, let's go back in." I open the door for him and he enters hesitantly. "No contact with Ivy ever again, you understand." I ask as we enter. He nods and throws his hands up. "That b***h isn't worth all this. You've got it." He says and I laugh hard as we get back into the site of his little sister.  "Good good, hey it was great talking with you, good luck with your campaign." I say and he plays along sending me a smile. "Ah yes thank you, enjoy your smoothies and enjoy your stay in town." He says and I give him a wave as I grab my drink tray. "Have a great day Jamie." I say and she sends me an oblivious smile. "The same to you! Have a great day." With that, I walk back outside and I crack my neck. I wasn't going to tell Ivy about this at all. This was something even more incriminating against me and I was just trying to get on her good side.
