Kissing the Concrete

Chapter 33: Puzzles

Andy's P.O.V.

I searched the house for clear tape. The letter was lying on the floor, ripped into eight different-sized pieces. Too bad I had realized that something was written on the back so late. I was hoping it was some kind of clue, to where she could be. Or maybe just a letter saying she was alright, that she wasn't harmed. Anything. I refused to be laughed at by a piece of paper.

Frustrated, I started puzzling the pieces together. My hands slipped around, I was so afraid that my baby was hurt and my palms almost got sweaty. How I wished I could hold her right now. But I tried pushing my thoughts away to get a clear message. As soon as I was finished with taping the paper together and could clearly read the words again, I turned around to see what was saying on the back of it.

You may not know who writes this, but you know me alright. Your girl is in the city of steel. But she has a price.

The city of steel? I thought about if for a while. Where could this city be? And who did I know there?

Pittsburgh. She was all the way over in Pittsburgh.

Without any final destination, not knowing any adresses, I got in my car and started driving. I couldn't figure out who this mysterious steeler could be, all I knew was I wanted my girl back.


Iris' P.O.V.

I woke up in a garage. Atleast that is what I thought it was. My hands were still tied, and it was dark and empty inside. The cold concrete underneath me was hurting my spine and I was really thirsty. Incredibly thirsty. Somewhere around here there should be water, and I tried twisting and turning to see if I could get out somehow.

"Hello Iris."

My body started shaking in fear. Who was this person? What was he doing?

"Who are you? Where am I?"

"You are in Pittsburgh. And you know goddamn well who I am."

I thought about it for a few seconds. Did I? It's true, there were something extremely familiar about his voice. But I couldn't figure out who he was.

"Why am I here?"

"Because your boyfriend is an awful person who needs to pay. He stole away what I loved the most, and now I'm gonna steal away what he loves the most."

"What are you talking about?" I asked, confused. I knew that Andy wasn't the greatest person, heck, I hated him with all my heart just a month or so ago. But I also knew he changed his ways when I had met him, and he started to like me. He was a loving, caring gentleman.

"I used to go to your highschool until lthis year. Andy and I were in the same biology class and Lexi was there as well, you know, before she moved out of town. Now I had a huge crush on Lexi, and she liked me back. But then your stupid boyfriend, who used to mock the shit out of me, stole her away. So I decided to play a little game, Iris."

I had heard his voice in school. That's right. But I don't remember his name.

"He hurt Lexi when he broke up with her, so when I heard from her that you were together, I decided that I'd hurt something he loved. My first step was to freak you out and then to steal you away from him. And my second step is...well, you'll see later on. But as we speak he has received a letter saying that you are in Pittsburgh. If he loves you, then he's probably on his way to find you. But he will receive a nasty surprise when he gets here..."

This man was completely nuts, and it freaked me out. Atleast I now knew where I was, in Pittsburgh, providing he had told me the truth. I was far away from home, and I had no idea what this man was going to do with me.

Notes

I've kind of been wondering what I was going to write for some time now, by that I mean about a day. Kind of got stuck for a while there, which is why my updating isn't as frequent. But I have ideas now of where I want to take this.

In a few days I'll be going abroad, returning the 8th of July for only a few hours before then instantly jumping on a plane to the Czech republic the next day. Because of the last trip, I've basically been scavaging through all of H&M's business section to find stuff to wear. I need to keep it somewhat cheap atleast.

Trust me, I will update soon. I just have a lot of packing and fixing to do.
