''Officer Peck?''
She turns around when she hears her name and finds a dark haired woman looking at her, ''Yes?''
''I'm Doctor Dunham, I'm the one taking care of Holly Stewart.''
''Finally! I have been here for nearly two hours waiting to hear something. How is she?''
''She is'', there is a pause, a pause Gail doesn't like, at all, ''She is alive. She was beaten up pretty badly, a few ribs were broken, but that's the minus issue.''
The blonde swallows hard, ''Okay, continue.''
''Her brain is swollen, so we are keeping her unconscious and we have to wait to see if the swelling will go away on its own or if we will have to operate. And there's the rape kit's result.''
''Oh my God. Please don't tell me she was -'' She can't even finish the phrase but the doctor does it for her.
''Yes, I'm afraid she was sexuality assaulted.''
Gail Peck was never one that fell apart in front of other people but in that moment she does. She falls to the ground and breaks. She should have been there. If she was there maybe this wouldn't have happened. Maybe she could have saved her girlfriend.
She sits on her car and sighs.
She had always hated fighting with Holly. In the two years they have been together they had only had two big fights. But she had never walked away from her girlfriend like she did tonight. That's why she couldn't sleep at Chris' place. That's why she was parked in front of the brunette's house at four am, because she couldn't sleep without things being okay with Holly.
She sighs again and gets out of the car.
Walking towards Holly's house she sees something the cop inside of her doesn't like at all, she reaches for her gun only to find it isn't there. Of course it isn't, her shift only starts in two hours.
She stands in front of the door and grabs her phone. Chris is on the precinct and she knows he is in the front desk tonight.
''Hey, Chris is me, Gail.''
''Gail? What's up?''
''Can you send someone to Holly's place please?''
''Okay… What happened?''
''Right now Chris. And an ambulance too.''
''Got it.''
She hangs up before he has the chance to say ''Don't do anything stupid.''
The door was half open, like someone had broken in. She steps inside and finds darkness. She wishes she had her fucking gun and a flashlight. She goes into the kitchen and grabs the first knife she finds, luckily is a big one. She checks every room of the house and curses the fact they live in such a big place. There's only one room left to check. She stands in front of their bedroom and releases the breath she hadn't even noticed she was holding.
When she opens the door and turns the light on what is front of her makes her sick to her stomach, but she doesn't throw up because fear over comes her.
Holly is lying on her bed, naked, covered in blood and unconscious.
''Oh my God.'', she walks till the side of the bed and checks for a pulse, ''Please be alive, please, please.'', when she finds one she closes her eyes in relieve. She touches Holly's face gently, ''Baby, can you hear me? Please open your eyes. I'm right here. I'm so sorry I left.'', tears form in her eyes but she doesn't have time to break down because suddenly there's noise and flashlights on her face.
''Oh my God.'' she hears a familiar voice say; Andy. And there are arms around her pulling her away from Holly, ''No, no! Let me go! She needs me!''
''Gail. Gail! Listen to me you've got to let the paramedics do their job and take care of her okay?''
She nods reluctantly and watches as two men put a mask on her girlfriend's face and a needle in her arm.
