?Allison’s POV?
.
I glanced at the wall clock, it has been three hours already since Jonas left and I was just getting up from a nap. He left few minutes after we finished having breakfast and with only plain words that he’ll be back.
I sat up on the chair and felt a slight weight under my elbow that I had set out after dosing off. I looked under and found my phone resting under, I recollected how I was busy operating it before I fell asleep. I picked it up and tried turning it on but I realised it was switched off, my weight must’ve made it go off. I turned it on and while it loaded, I let out a slight yawn and a brief stretch before picking up the phone again.
I stared at the screen, contemplating on calling Jonas or not; not wanting to sound too worried or bothersome, I let it slide. I went to the second and last ID on my contact list, it was Anthony’s. I clicked on it and placed it on my ear; it began ringing.
“Hello?” He answered. “Who’s this and how did you get this number?” He asked, sounding alarmed.
“It’s Allison. I just called to give you my number-
“Your number? Did you get a phone?”
“Yes. This is my number, you can save it” I said.
“Of course. I’ve been wanting to talk to you alone, I just didn’t want to call that Jonas guy. Did you buy that phone yourself?”
“No, Jonas. We went to the mall together and I picked it” I said.
“I see. But how often does it take it from you? I mean is the phone always with you?”
“Yes. He doesn’t take it from me. Why?”
“I want to be sure he didn’t tap it. You’re positive Jonas doesn’t take your phone?”
“Yes! It’s always with me and besides, why will Jonas want to tap my phone? It’s not like I’m hiding anything”
“It’s not you, Allison. It’s him. He’s hiding a lot of things from you and he doesn’t want you to about any of it, he’s making sure you don’t find out” he said.
“I don’t understand what you’re saying, Anthony” I said, my brows furrowing deeply.
“I know. Is Jonas there with you?”
“No. He’s not home. I’m alone” I said. “Why?”
“Look, what I want to tell you isn’t something I should talk about on the phone. Remember when I told you not to trust him? Well, that’s because Jonas isn’t who you think he is. He’s way far from being a good guy”
“How do you know that? Is this still about your suspicions?”
“No, this is nothing about it. I Know what I’m saying and I have proofs. Jonas is a hypocrite, Allie. I don’t know whose side he’s on now but I doubt that he’s on ours. I’ve been looking for ways to tell you ever since we saw each other last but I just needed an opportunity where it’d be just you and I”
“Then tell me now. What are you talking about?”
“Jonas is one of Gavin’s members, he’s among those people that killed your parents. He works for Gavin too” he said and my face suddenly went blank.
“What?!” I asked. “I- I don’t understand, Anthony. How can you be so sure about that?”
“Allison, before Jonas gets home, I want you to come over to that abandoned house. There’s a green car waiting right there for you, just get into it and you’ll be driven straight to where I am, now and I’ll answer every of your question” he said, sounding so honest.
“Are you sure of what you’re saying? I mean what of you’re wrong or it’s some sort of mistake or coincidence?”
“It’s not, trust me. Look, I know you trust Jonas a lot and maybe more than me cos you met him first but I’m very sure of what I’m saying and I’m ready to not only tell you but show you, but first I’ll send you a small proof of what I’m talking about and when you get it, I want you to leave that house ASAP. Do you understand?”
“Um..yes. okay!” I said and the call got disconnected.
I slowly put the phone down and tried thinking about what I just heard.
Even though it was pretty clear, I still couldn’t understand. It was too complicated to me and I just can’t bring myself to believe it.
Jonas works for Gavin??
Absently, my mind wandered back to the night, the night he was drunk. He had mentioned Gavin, though the words weren’t clear or I just couldn’t believe it but I knew he mentioned Gavin and I had waved it off because he was drunk..
My phone beeped and I checked to see a picture message from Anthony and then a text almost immediately. As I made to click on the video, I found my finger trembling as they moved to the screen, I steadied it and touched the video, it played and there was Gavin addressing some people that I recognized as his goons, as he talked, I heard him mention Jonas name and suddenly the camera revealed another guy on mask; the features were no doubt familiar and the person took off his mask in one swift move, revealing Jonas face, I could feel myself freezing as my Palm went to my lips to suppress my loud gasp.
He began interacting with Gavin, not being able to continue, I ended the video and saw the message.
**Please leave now, there’s no time and we have no idea of Jonas next move!**
The message read and the phone slipped from my hand as tears blurred my sight.
He’s a traitor after all, how could he act so nice, sympathetic and encouraging when he’s actually involved in it? How could I not have noticed anything??
I sniffed and in a swift move, wiped my tears. I quickly grabbed the phone and stood up, I went to my room, took some money and hurried out of the eyes, running all the way to the bus station.

?Jonas POV?
.
My drive home went from smooth and long to reckless and less-long. I arrived home in an hour and without parking properly, I jumped out of the car. I sight Zoe’s Jeep few metres from the house. Just one glance and I knew it was hers.
My heart gave an uneasy leap as I stride into the house, readying myself for whatever was going to hit me. I got to the door and pushed it open, it gave way immediately and landed me at the living room. I sight Zoe on a couch, sipping vodka from a wine cup and a huge smile curled up on her lips when she saw me. My gaze moved around the room to be sure nothing was amiss and nothing seemed to be. I took another step into the house and Zoe at once flung into me, giving me a hug and pressing all her skin into mine. I gently pushed her off.
“You have to leave,” I said, grabbing her wrist and leading her to the door.
“I don’t want to, baby. I brought my bags, I’m here to live with you”
“What? Are you crazy? How can you make such a decision without my permission?”
“Come-on, we both know you’d get all grumpy at first and give in at the end-
“You’re leaving, Zoe. You can’t stay here-
“Why? Are you living with a girl here?”
“What?”
“I went to the other room and found some girl stuffs in it. Did you replace me already?”
“Replace you?- call it whatever you want but you’re leaving-
“I’m not! And that btch is so lucky I didn’t meet here-
The rest of her words died down as I looked around, searching for Allison.
If I can’t stop Zoe now, I need to at least stop her, until I can.
I grabbed my phone and called her but got no response.
Where could she be?
