Chapter Text
“Hey, Matt. Did you check out Jay’s Instagram today?” Nick asked as he walked over to his older brother while holding his phone.
Matt cocked his eyebrow. “No? Why would I be checking Jay White’s instagram?”
“Because the picture he posted earlier looks like it was taken from inside your house.”
“What? Let me see that!” Matt perked up as he snatched the phone away.
Nick had the picture pulled up on his phone. And he was right. Jay was sitting with one leg crossed over the other on a hunter green recliner that was set up in front of a stone fireplace. There was a little table off to the side that looked like it had a picture frame on it, but it was face down. Behind him was a beautiful wooden carved cross on the wall. And Jay had a big, almost obnoxious smile on his face.
“What are the chances that someone else has the exact same living room set up as I do?” Matt asked as he looked over to his younger brother.
Nick shrugged with a worried look on his face. Honestly, the answer was probably zero. But he couldn’t tell him that. Matt didn’t like the fact that Nick wouldn’t actually answer him. He knew that meant Nick was thinking the same thing as him. So he did the only thing he could think of and commented on the photo.
“Looks familiar.”
Matt wasn’t sure if he’d even get any kind of reply. Especially from Nick’s account. But almost right away the phone pinged.
“I’d hope it would. Figured you’d have been here a lot.”
Nick grabbed his phone back and looked at the reply. “What is the fucker doing in your house?”
It hit Matt suddenly. “Gabriela!”
“What about her? Isn’t she at work?” Nick questioned.
Matt was frantically fishing his own phone out of his pocket. “No. She had a doctor’s appointment this morning so she was just going to take the whole day off and get shit done around the house.”
“Maybe she’s still out. I’ll text her and tell her not to come home.”
While Nick was texting, Matt was calling his girlfriend’s phone and paced around frantically as he was waiting for her to answer. But she didn’t. So he called again. He almost breathed a sigh of relief when the phone stopped ringing because it had been picked up, but froze in place when he heard the voice.
“Jackson residence.”
“You mother fucker.” Matt muttered.
“You can tell your brother thanks for the warning, but unfortunately for her, she got back from her appointment right on time.” Matt could almost hear the smile in the accented voice that was on the other line.
“Let me talk to her.” Matt demanded.
“Well, I would, but she’s a little bit tied up at the moment. Give me a few minutes and maybe I can get her to facetime ya.”
“I swear to fucking God…”
“Alright, thanks for the call mate. Talk soon.”
Jay ended the call before Matt could get another word out. And he was fuming. He threw his phone down on the ground without even worrying about breaking it. Nick had overheard the conversation and was trying to message Jay through his Instagram account since he didn’t have his phone number. He could see that Jay was reading them, but not bothering to reply. Matt was pacing back and forth breathing heavily. He wasn’t anywhere near home, doing a taping in another state.
“We need to get Jay’s number and call him back.” Nick stated.
“Fuck that. We need to call someone to go over to the house!” Matt almost yelled.
“Does the neighbor still have the spare key?”
“No. Gave it back last week. But I’ll tell him to break every fucking window if he has to.”
Their yelling was silenced when Matt’s phone started ringing. They both looked down and noticed an incoming Facetime call from Gabriela. Matt rushed to pick it up and answer it, praying it still worked properly. He swiped on the screen and was greeted with Jay’s smiling face. Hair slicked back in a half up ponytail. Beard scraggly everywhere. And that’s all that was in the frame.
“Hey!”
“Where’s my fucking girlfriend?” Matt asked through clenched teeth.
“Getting right to the point eh? Alright.” Jay shrugged and began to walk around.
Parts of Matt’s kitchen began to come in frame behind Jay as the phone moved around. Jay switched the phone so instead of facing him, it was facing in front of him. Matt’s teeth remained clenched but Nick’s jaw dropped as they saw what Jay was showing him. Gabriela laying face down on their little kitchen table. Hands tied together behind her back. Each thigh tied to a different table leg spreading them out. One of their little kitchen wash cloths shoved into her mouth. What made it even worse was it was a nice warm spring day, so she had decided to wear a dress. Jay walked around to the end of the table where they would be able to see her face. She was breathing heavily though the cloth and her eyes were welled up with tears threatening to spill out.
“Say hi sweetheart. Your boyfriend’s on the phone.” He said in his usual upbeat cocky voice. “Nick is too. Though I’m not too sure how long he’ll be staying. Probably a little awkward for him to see you like this.”
The phone wobbled for a few seconds before becoming still. Jay had a little stand set up on the end of the table to hold the phone. Once he got it set up he came into view behind Gabriela.
“I don’t know what the fuck you think you’re doing but…”
“Ah ah, “ Jay scolded as he pulled out a switchblade knife from his pocket, flicking it open. “Probably not the tone you want to have with me right now mate.”
Nick stepped in, trying to keep a level head to avoid something even worse from happening. “Jay, what are you doing?”
“Quite simple actually. You took away my title shot my interfering in my match. Keep interfering in my business. So I’m taking something from you,” He replied as the blade of his knife gently grazed up the back of Gabriela’s leg making her whimper.
“Get away from my girlfriend. And get the hell out of my house.”
“Oh I’ll be leavin’ shortly. But I’m taking her with me. You fix what you messed up. When I get my title back, you’ll get her back.” Jay said casually. Matt was going to threaten the man, but was once again interrupted. “Besides, I think she might kind of like that.”
Matt was seething, Nick was in shock, and Gabriela was trying not to let the tears spill down her cheeks.
“I don’t know what kind of religious Jesus safe sex y’all have been havin’,” Jay began as he pulled up the back of her skirt with his knife blade, looking at the end of her that Matt couldn’t see and licking. “But she seems to be enjoying this little act of being tied up and helpless. Don’t ya sweetheart.”
Jay slapped her on the ass causing her to whimper.
“Seems to like that too. At least the little wet spot on her panties got a little bit bigger.” He walked around the side of the table and grabbed a fistful of her hair, pulling her face up next to his. “What do ya say sweetheart. Wanna come home with me for a little bit?” Before looking back into the phone and smirking.
Jay chuckled as he held her head up forcing her to look into the eyes of her boyfriend. Matt looked more pissed off than worried at the moment. Nick was pacing around in the background. Jay could see that he was talking on his phone. He turned his gaze towards Gabriela but spoke loud enough for all of them to hear.
“Well sweetheart, I guess we better be getting out of here. Looks like company’s gonna be showing up soon. Wanna make sure we miss that.”
He smirked towards the camera again before letting go of her hair. Gabriela looked at the phone with a pleading look in her eyes as he walked over towards it and removed it from the stand.
“Don’t worry Matthew. I’ll take real good care of her,” Jay winked before ending the call.
