Silence on Dead Mans Hill [Closed]

He nodded at the doctor and sighed, taking a moment too try to calm himself. Finding his heart pointing and out if breath from the ordeal. It was frightening to see Alex go through something like this and could do nothing but restrain." Situation normal then doc."He commented finding it difficult to ease his breathing."She had bad nightmares before.. But never thus bad... Anyways thanks doc." He moved towards the door back to her room before pausing outside. He found himself reluctant to go insider feeling scared of what might come, his breath became heavier as he looked down.
 
The doctor nods."Violence is normal. There trying to stop what is happening to them. It isn't her fault. It is normal for someone with Night terrors yes. Of course."he went to leave and saw Christian."You okay?"he asked him."It's natural to be afraid of our loved ones who go through it or afraid for them. They however need us. Or they will think they did something wrong or something to push us away." He said to Christian.

"I know. It's just....."He trailing off feeling a brief moment irritation and unwillingness to deal with Alex. The feeling came and went and he scolded himself for having it. This was the women he loved and he will help her deal with it." Its fine, doc, thanks. Just needed a minute to catch my breath." He stepped inside and sat by Alex."Hey... Feeling better."
 
Alex looked up as he walked in. She saw the look on his face. She had hurt him and she felt bad about it. She hated that she hurt him."I am so sorry." She said and looked at him."Yeah better." she said. She looked down and bit her lip. Alex put her head into her knees. She never wanted to hurt Christian. She loved him and felt bad she didn't want him near her if she was going to hurt him.

'Its fine... I wouldn't much of a cop if I couldn't take a scratch. Besides you didn't do it intentionally."He said forcing a smile as he leaned over and gave her quick peck on the lips. He sat back and wrapped his arms around her comfortingly. "Water under the bridge... At least I know no one mess with you while you sleep." He joked. He found himself looking at Alex differently like she wasn't Alex anymore but some sick woman he had to heal before he got Alex... It was an unsettling feeling."The doctor has put you on some new medicine to help with the night terrors... Seems all doctors are doing are managing rather than trying to cure what you have.
 
Alex leaned into him, she knew that it wasn't water under the bridge."I think I am going to head back for a while. You stay work the case and spend time with Jill and your mom." She said. She kissed his cheek."Go sleep I will leave when they release me in the morning. She didn't want to be looked at like some invalid or some crazy person. She wasn't and she just spend time in there apartment. She needed time. So did he, she felt horrible.


DeathToAllBetrayers
 
Christian looked up at her in surprise, unsure whether to relieved or worried by the sudden news." You shouldn't be alone after all if this. If you have any other night terror like this you dont know were you will end. Stay with me or I can hand over the case to someone else and take you back myself." He offered guilty that his new issue was noticed by her.
 
Alex shook her head."No I can't your not comfortable around me at the moment. I know that forced look of I am okay. I use that look often. Your looking at


Me like I am sick invalid or crazy can't decipher which one. I really don't want to be looked at like that especially by the man I love." She said. She gave him a small smile.


DeathToAllBetrayers
 
"Neither, i dont think of you like that." He said feeling guilty for making her feel like that, that's not what he wanted. Then again who was he fooling here. He sighed,"I love you and i want to be with you and help you through it. I am just tired is all... Maybe this is best but still you shouldnt be alone."
 
She gave him a look, to say she didn't believe him. She sighed and crossed her arms."Just go, okay your tired and don't need this. I will be fine will talk when you solve this case. If you still want me then. I am fine I don't need someone watching me." She said. She was trying to push him away he didn't want to be there and she didn't want him looking at her like he was. She finally got him to leave and go back to the hotel. In the morning she was released and dressed again. She grabbed her stuff and went to the train station to buy a ticket home. She was just leaving her stuff, she buy more or he could bring it to her when he was done. She didn't need a baby sitter. She got on the train and chose a cart. She sat frowning no phone no book no music. "Great this will be a boring train ride." She said and went to sit by the window. She looked out at the station. She hid the tears in her eye's and sighed as she looked down away from the window. Christian wasn't coming, she knew that. She had told him to go and get out. She crossed her arms and leaned back in the seat she put her feet up on the other seat and waited for the train to start.

He reluctantly left and felt guilty the whole way back despite trying to convince himself it was temporary and for the best. He tried to sleep that night but failed sitting up until the morning. The next morning he picked up the phone and called the station back home, despite his issue he still worried and cared for her and wasn't going to leave her with nothing. He called in a favor and had a police car look in on her every once in a while until he got back and to call him if there was any issue. The he went on to solve the case, though he lacked the same enthusiasm without Alex. Soon though he received a call that made him glad Alex left, the child she failed to save had been found died.
 
Alex got home after a bit. The train ride was long. A patrol car pulled up."need a ride?"they ask her. She rolled her eye's,"No and I don't need some patrol guys looking in after on Christians request. Got it so don't be checking up on me I don't need it." She snapped and started walking. She had left her car here. They had used his. She walked into the apartment and grabbed her keys. She left again locking the door. Alex made her way to the old house in the woods. She sighed, she was tired,but didn't care. She didn't want to sleep, she broke. A window to get in. Alex coughed at the dust."god wouldn't kill someone to come and clean this place." She muttered. She saw a spider crawling next to her hand. She use her hand to squish it and then walked further into the house. She looked around, she heard a thump upstairs and jumped slightly. She walked up glad she didn't have a phone on her. She looked around for what had made the thump she jumped as a cat jumped in front of her. She let out gasp."stupid cat"she muttered. She walked around the house. It was very empty and very quiet. She had forgotten to tell Christian she was here safe. That how ever was a bit far from her mind at the moment as she looked over the cool old stuff. She went looking through closets and trunks. She jumped back with a slight yelp as she saw a body in the closest. She closed it and breathed it was freshly dead. Someone had been here recently. She heard a creak on the stairs and boot fall. She made her way under the bed and stayed still. She kept a hand over her mouth .

Christian got a call from the patrol unit as he went to the crime scene. that she was home and that she refused escort."Of course she would." He said back shaking his head. "Just keep at it, check with her every now and again. Thats an order." He added before shutting the phone off before arriving to the crime scene and went to work. The boy was stabbed repeatedly, the manner of which looked like the murderer was angry. Poor kid. A closer inspection of the body by the pathologist revealed that the body was moved to this spot. A search of the crime scene found a trail on which the body was dragged through including a blood trail to a parking lot. Christian shook his head, without his little hidey whole the murderer was very sloppy and likely in panic for this change in his killing habit. Christian was confident that he will soon find the killer.
 
Alex hid under the bed. She kept a hand over her mouth as the feet walked around she heard a phone ring.


"Cops found the boys body good. You know my knew target is that girl that is a CI with the cops. I will be back that way in fours hours got two more bodies to bring."the voice said and hung up. Alex kept still holding a hand over her mouth. She was biting onto her hand. She stayed there as he got the bodies out. She heard slamming of doors then the dead bolt lock. She waited just in case he came back. The car finally drove away. She slipped out from under the bed and made a be line for the window she broken to get in. She slipped out and ran through the forest for the town


DeathToAllBetrayers
 
The high of a possible break in the case, quickly passed as a searched of the surroundings area of the parking lot and witness statements turned out very little. He sighed as he returned to the hotel to get some rest and change to fresh clothes, He had heard from the patrol unit for a while and decided to call home, he would have preferred to call her mobile but she left it behind.
 
Alex looked behind her as she reached the edge of the forest. She breathed and made her way towards a more crowded part of town. As she did she had stepped in front of the car. She looked up and said sorry. She stopped when seeing it was him. She backed up and said sorry she had to go.


"Wait can I offer you a lift?"He asked her. She shook her head and made a run for it. She didn't look back, she wasn't like those stupid woman in scary movies. She kept running till she reached the police station in town. She held the doors closed behind her. He hopefully wouldn't follow in here. She ran to an officer she trusted."Call Christian,tell him the killer he is looking for here." The man looked at her like she was crazy."call detective Carmine damn it." She snapped slamming her hand on his desk. He nods "alright calm down miss. Come with me a second and will call him." They lead her to a cell. Alex slams her hands on the bars."Are you fucking with me I will kill you."she screamed as he walked away. The man went to call Christian.


"We have an Alex in our holding cells says to call you cause the killer your looking for is here. Would you like us to lock her up or throw her in the Looney bin." He asked christian.


DeathToAllBetrayers
 
Christian began to worry about Alex when he got no reply, despite attempts to be logical about her possible were abouts. Eventually, he creaked under his worry going to call the police back home for details before the phone range for him." Detective Carmine." He replied and frowned at what he was told by the officer."Neither, you let her go and give her this phone, you moron! Dont you remember our old CI?"
 
The man grumbled and walked to the cell.He looked in at alex curled in the corner. She was leaned on the wall her eye's closed. She actually thought jail be better, she be safe here" well she did threaten me. Not sure if I should let her go."he said he walked banged on the cell doors."Time to wake up you have a phone call, your knight to the rescue." He said still not letting her out. Alex got up and sighed as she grabbed the phone. From his hand, she smacked his hand away and moved to sit in the cell"Hello?" she asked into the receiver. She was hoping it was Christian and not the killer.


DeathToAllBetrayers
 
Christian breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Alex's voice, calming down his annoyance of the police officer earlier."Hey, love... I figure that idiot hasnt let you go yet... I will sort him out dont worry." He said softly. "You okay? What happened?"
 
Alex breathed in relief."No he hasn't,but I might prefer that way at the moment." She said and leaned back."I think so, I mean a jail cell is the safest place in the world. I was walking, I didn't want to be home or sleep. So I went to the old cabin in the woods. Kinda broke in, didn't think any one was there till I found a body in the closet and heard foot fall on the steps. It was him your killer lives here."I over heard him say he is fixated on me. When he left I ran for it,but ran into him. And well here I am in jail."she said


DeathToAllBetrayers
 
"Heh, first time i heard a resident say that. I guess you can stay there until i come," Christian commented already preparing to leave as he listened to what she had to say." Shit... How do you attract the intention of both coops and killers? Thats a lot of competition for your good old boyfriend." He joked. " Look like i said i am on my way and we check out the cabin when i get there."He said stepping out of the door.


(Just had this though, why dont we have christian as a hostage this time?)
 
(Okay and omg you changed your photo.)


"That I don't know maybe I am just that killer." She joked."okay see you soon. Love you babe" She said. She hung up the phone and held onto it. She wasn't giving it back till he got there and she was with him. She paced the cell back and fourth. She was waiting for a call from him or him to show up in front of the jail cell bars. She bit her lower lip and just kept pacing.

(Heh, saw that on my way to larnaka airport a few years back..Confidence Boosting isnt it? Found the pict on the site recently, speaks volume about my country)


"Love you too. love."He said closing the phone. As Christian stepped out of the car, he felt a presence behind him, he looked back and he saw a figure followed him as doggy as the come. He took as few steeps forward to be sure he was followed, before turning around to face the gun and revealing his gun. "Ok buddy watch up..." He went say as he approached the follower. Before he knew it he felt a hard blow to the back of his head bring him to the ground, another blow followed as he tried to recover knocking him out. The next brief time he was conscious he was lying in a back of van travailing, hands bound.
