Adding two functions together to make one value?

Question

Hello amazing people of StackOverflow, I am trying to make a blackjack game using javascript. In my code I have two functions. These functions deal out a first card value when "deal" has been pressed and deals out a second card value when "Hit" has been pressed. How would I go about adding these two functions to add the value of both cards, so I can test if the player has gone over the value of 21? I appreciate the time you have spent reading this, thank you! Here is my code:

var score = 0;

var deck = ["ace", "ace", "ace", "ace", 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, "jack", "jack", "jack", "jack", "queen", "queen", "queen", "queen", "king", "king", "king", "king"];

function deal() {
  var random = deck[Math.floor(Math.random() * deck.length)];
  document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = random;
}

function hit() {
  var random2 = deck[Math.floor(Math.random() * deck.length)];
  document.getElementById('result2').innerHTML = random2;
}

var time = new Date();
document.getElementById("time").innerHTML = time.toDateString();

#deal {
  position: fixed;
  width: 50px;
  height: 35px;
  top: 500px;
  left: 500px;
  background-color: silver;
  border-radius: 10px;
  border-style: ridge;
}
#hit {
  position: fixed;
  width: 50px;
  height: 35px;
  top: 500px;
  border-style: ridge;
  border-radius: 10px;
}
body {
  text-align: center;
  font-size: 30px;
  background: url("http://corporate.fortuna2000.be/imgs/background/red_poker3_xl.jpg");
}
#ace {
  position: absolute;
  top: 100px;
  left: 100px;
}
#time {
  position: absolute;
  top: 590px;
  right: 0px;
  border-style: solid;
  border-radius: 10px;
  background-color: silver;
}

I got the number value total working, but I didn't get the suit, dealer, or turns done yet. Since you requested for only the former, this should suffice.

I used splice to remove played cards from the deck, renamed the cards so they were easier to parse (I used radix 16 (hexidecimal) so 'a'=10 and 'b'=11) the number values.

var score = [];
var status;
var deck = ['c-b', 'h-b', 'd-b', 's-b', 'c-2', 'h-2', 'd-2', 's-2', 'c-3', 'h-3', 'd-3', 's-3', 'c-4', 'h-4', 'd-4', 's-4', 'c-5', 'h-5', 'd-5', 's-5', 'c-6', 'h-6', 'd-6', 's-6', 'c-7', 'h-7', 'd-7', 's-7', 'c-8', 'h-8', 'd-8', 's-8', 'c-9', 'h-9', 'd-9', 's-9', 'ct-a', 'ht-a', 'dt-a', 'st-a', 'cj-a', 'hj-a', 'dj-a', 'sj-a', 'cq-a', 'hq-a', 'dq-a', 'sq-a', 'ck-a', 'hk-a', 'dk-a', 'sk-a'];
var handCards = document.getElementById('hand');
var handScore = document.getElementById('score');
var hitMe = document.getElementById('hit');

function deal(x) {
  x = parseInt(x, 10);
  if (!x) {
    var y = 1;
  } else {
    y = x;
  }

  console.log('y: ' + y);
  var suit = '';
  var hole = 0;
  var total = 0;
  for (var i = 0; i < y; i++) {
    var idx = Math.floor(Math.random() * deck.length);
    var card = deck[idx];
    deck.splice(idx, 1);
    suit = sortCard(card);
    console.log('card: ' + card);
    var num = card.split('-').pop();
    if (num === 'b') {
      hole++;
    }
    console.log('hole: ' + hole);
    console.log('num: ' + num);
    var val = parseInt(num, 16);
    console.log('val: ' + val);
    score.push(val);
    console.log('score: ' + score[i]);
    total = score.reduceRight(function(a, b) {
      return a + b;
    });
    console.log('total: ' + total);
  }

  handCards.value = suit;
  handScore.value = total;
  if (total > 21 && hole < 1) {
    status = 'bust';
  } else if (total > 21 && hole > 0) {
    hole = hole - 1;
    total = total - 10;
    status = 'prompt';
  } else if (total < 21) {
    status = 'prompt';
  } else if (total === 21) {
    status = 'stay';
  } else return false;

  session(status);
