Lost soul

Montana

After we settled in at Tim’s place we came up with a plan. Stacy stayed for a few days then flew back home to DC. It’s been a couple of weeks now. And two days since I’ve talked to her I’m so worried about her.

Stacy POV

After returning home I just continued my normal routine. It’ll be two weeks this Friday since I’ve returned home. I miss Ry. I can’t believe that low life Mic. Gosh I new there was a reason I didn’t like him. I just have never liked him. Ever since the first day Ry introduced me to him. I wasn’t at the high school grad party the night she met him. I was with my then boyfriend at the time because we were going to separate colleges. So you know we wanted to spend our last few days together before we completely ended things. Ry used to be so full of life. So happy and she was so funny back then. Ever since mic showed up it’s like she started to loose herself. Her morals. I hope my uncle can bring that back out of her.

Knock knock!

I was pulled out of my thought from someone knocking on my apartment door.

Who is it? I ask from behind the door.

It’s the police ma’am we have a few questions for you. A males voice comes from the other side.

I open the door. I know they are most likely Mic’s goons. There behind the door was two guys. Tall and built. I would even say kind of cute.

How can I help you guys? I ask sweetly

Miss Stacy, we have a few questions for you regarding your friend Rylee.

Oh no is she ok? I ask with worry in my voice.

The man gives me a strange look then looks at his partner who’s been really quiet this whole time.

Well you see she’s missing. I gasp

Her fiancé Mic is worried about her whereabouts. And thought maybe you might know since you are her best friend.

I’m internally laughing.

Well I don’t know where she would be because if she ran away from Mic then she would most likely come here and as you can see she’s not here. I say obviously.

I’m staring at dumb and dumber here waiting for their responds when the quiet ones phone starts to ring.

Ring ring.

Excuse me miss.

Hello?

He answers and walks out. Sir talks a lot of corse has more to say.

You flew to Vegas two weeks ago?

Huh? I ask

Oh yeah I went to visit my uncle over there it’s been years. I hope I didn’t just get myself caught.

Hmhmm.. you just so happen to leave the same day Rylee went missing. And looks like you also got and emergency flight out there. You must of had a last moment decision to go on a mini vacation. He is looking me dead in the eyes . The other one walks back in and whispers something to the other one. He shakes his head then looks at me again. They both stop whispering and look at me. The next thing I know one of them is trying to grab me. I rip my arm from him and start to run around my living room throwing anything and everything at them. This isn’t good.

We know you know we’re she is. Just tell us!

One of them screams

I’ll never tell that psychopath! I all but screamed. They both charge at me. I managed to throw a punch at the one knocking him back but I’m not quick enough to dodge the other. He grabs me and the one I punch starts to come near me again I jump up and kick him managing to get the other guy to let me loose. I turn and do a spin kick to his head. But then I get hit hard in the back of the head. Everything is a blur and I slowly start to fall. One of the guys catches me before I hit the ground.

Well maybe this will get her out of her hiding spot. One of them says before everything goes black.

Rylee POV

Im laying in my bed wide awake wondering what’s going on with Stace. It’s now been almost a week since Tim and I last talked to her. I have an uneasy feelings in my stomach.

BAM!

I sit right up and jump out of the bed I was about to open my door when Tim barges in.

We have to leave now. He has a panicked look on his face before he masks it.

Why what’s going on? I asked worried.

They got Stace. And now they are here in Vegas looking for you. Don’t worry Stace is fine a little beat up but she’s a fighter. But we have to leave now pack only the essentials. Tim says sternly

Ok but where are we going Tim. I’m nervous

Montana kid. I have a cabin there that’s under a fake name I go there sometimes. I have a friend that owns a bar there. We have to get going.

I nod my head and start packing.

Two months later..

The day we left Tim had bought some hair dye and some contacts for me. We stopped at a rest stop and I died my hair and put contacts in.

I look complete different than I did before. I even started working out and Tim has been teaching me how to defend myself not only with hand to hand combat but also with guns. He says better safe then sorry. I work at his friends bar here in Anaconda Montana. Tim has a cabin out of the town a few miles. But it’s nice surrounded by trees. We haven’t had any news on Mic. I hope he gives up looking for me. Stacy is doing a lot better. She only calls Tim once a week not to draw any suspicion to herself. I’m sure they are still watching her.

Right now I’m out side at our gun range practice shooting. I’ve gotten really good with guns. I have my own personalized desert eagle. I know it’s a big gun for such a small girl. But I can handle it.

There’s my girl. I hear Tim walking over to me. We’ve become real close. He’s like the father I never had. I don’t know why he doesn’t try to date again. He’s an amazing guy.

Hey Tim. I beam up at him.

I see you have your baby out today for some testing? He teases me

Yeah you know it. But I’m just about ready to pack up and head inside. I’ve been out here all day shooting targets.

Yeah well let’s see what you got kid. He always challenges me but I like it.

I pick up my desert eagle and get her ready I aim at the target that’s about 200 yards away. I take a deep breath and pull the trigger. Bullseye! I look to Tim and he is sporting a huge smile right now.

Damn kid your getting better and better at this. That’s almost max distance for a desert eagle. He pats my shoulder and smiles at me.

Alright let’s get inside I’m taking you out tonight. I put my gun back in it’s case and we walk back towards the house.

We get inside and I head straight for the shower. After I do my business I brush my brown hair and put it up in a messy bun. I find some black ripped skinny jeans, a black tank top, and my favorite red flannel. After dressing I throw on my black converse. I apply a little bit of eye liner and mascara and I’m ready to go.

Tim takes me to his favorite spot. Ronda’s Pib. Yes this is the bar I work at. And yes Ronda is his friend. We walk in and Ronda is behind the bar.

Hey guys! She says to us. I wave and we take a seat. It is absolutely packed tonight.

Ronda do you need a hand? I know it’s my day off but I don’t mind? I feel bad.

You know what girl I could use a hand. Alright I hop up and behind the bar. I start serving drinks to the customers. It’s been a few hours of non stop servings. But it is finally dying down. Tim left about an hour ago. Ronda and him have some serious tension. I can tell she likes him a lot and he likes her but for some reason he just won’t go for it. I’ll have to talk to him about that later. I hear the front door and I say welcome in. I’m cleaning the rest of the glasses. When I feel someone tap my shoulder. I look over and see it’s Ronda and she’s got this shocked look on her face.

What? What’s wrong with you? I ask she just looks over and nods her head to the side. I follow her gesture and see the most gorgeous man I have ever seen. He was tall probably 6’5” muscular, he was wearing black jeans black shoes and a black dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up. Oh my gosh his forearms were just perfect. Tattoos on both sides. Perfectly muscular hands.I start looking up more and notice he has dark brown hair that’s looks like it might be curly if he let it grow out. Shaved sides and a little longer on the top a little messy. I’m literally drooling. He has a sharp perfect jaw with a little stubble on it. Very kissable plump lips. A straight nose but not big nor small just perfect. This guy was pure perfection on a stick. And finally my eyes landed on his. He had the most beautiful jade green eyes I have ever seen. They were mesmerizing. Ronda nudged me and pulled me out of my what ever you want to call it. I’m sure I’ve got drool on my face. I shook my head and cleared my throat. I look at the stranger again and notice he is staring right at me with a knowing look on his face. Great!

Uhm hi sorry what can I get for you tonight sir? I ask very politely. I’m sure I’m about as red as a tomato right now.

He sits down on the stool right in front of me.

I’d just like a whisky please. Oh god even his voice is sexy. Deep and sexy. Get a grip girl! I’m mentally screaming at my self right now. I pore him a whisky and hand it to him.

Thanks. My names Ian.
