Running Nightmares……Chapter Four

Emily is sitting in the hospital bed reading a newspaper the nurse brought her.

“Shannon!” she says once Shannon enters the room.

“Don’t! Just sit” Shannon says holding out his arms, as Emily try’s to jump out of the bed.

“Oh Shan, it was him!” Emily whispers in Shannon’s ear.

“Tell me later” Shannon whispers back now hugging her close.

It took an hour for the police to leave, the whole time questioning Emily over and over again.

About half way through Gabrielle and Jared come crashing in, only to be told they have to wait outside with till the police leave.

“Is my brother in there for her at lest?” Jared demands while trying to hold back a struggling and demanding Gabrielle.

“Her boyfriend? Yes he’s in there. Now kindly please wait out here till we’re done”

Now the police are gone, and Gabrielle now sits next to her friend on the bed, her hand in Emily’s.

“Now sweetie, tell” Shannon says now closing the door behind the last officer.
