Chapter 64 Jordan

Where the fuck could Ursula have taken her?
My heart stops. Oh my God, it’s not just her…
it’s them. I have to find two humans now.
Wait, what if it’s twins? Triplets?! I mean, with my athletic talents, I would not be surprised at all if I had multiple strong swimmers.
Holy shit, I’m gonna be a dad. The way I already have baby names ready to go.
Okay…calm yourself down. She’s pregnant.
That’s all you know. Let’s just focus on finding the woman carrying one or more of your children before naming them all and crying tears of joy.
I open my laptop to track her phone. Surprisingly, her last location shows here, but it also says last tracked an hour ago. I hit the button to ping it, crossing my fingers, but…silence. Fuck. Angelica is smart, the bitch, I’m sure she has it turned off or destroyed. Double bitch.
Think, Jordan. How can we find her? She was being weird on the phone.
What did she say? My mind whirls as my stomach churns, trying to replay every word.
She said just to go through my pre-game routine.
She knows there is no way in hell I’m leaving her kidnapped while I make my pre-game meals and take a nap.
Wait…she told me to make my peanut butter and maple sandwich.
She knows I hate maple anything, and that my pre-game snack is always the traditional Genovian dessert.
Is she talking in code? Fuck, does maple mean something? !
She also said to watch the game tapes like I always do. But…I don’t watch game tapes. She knows I only watch reruns before every game. Why would she tell me to watch game tapes? And study the time on the clock…the fuck? Why would I watch—
I feel my eyes bug out of my own skull. Her watch. She has her watch on! Holy shit. I pull the laptop up again and search for her watch location. When I see the map, rage surges in my veins once more. You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.
I grab my phone and keys and race out the door, hoping I’m not too late.
Parking my car, I send a text to my dad and Ray so they know where I am.
They told me to wait. To be smart. They told me, under no circumstances am I to get out of the car and try to find her.
Fuck that shit. She’s somewhere in the goddamn arena I’m supposed to play in tonight, of course, I’m going to scour every inch of this place until I find her.
She’s here, and there’s no way in hell I’m sitting in my car waiting for backup.
I know this is the part of the movie where someone says this, then something bad happens. But even when that happens, it always works out in the end, right?
Stepping out of the car and shutting the door behind me, I think about texting Jonesy.
He used to work security here; maybe he knows some places I wouldn’t think to look.
But before I can pull out my phone, I see someone approaching my car in my peripheral vision.
My hands shake. Blood pumps through my veins with rage.
“What the fuck are you doing here?”
“Hello Jordan. Always so nice to see you,” Chadd says, his fist hitting my face.
