Hello! First of all I would just like to apologise to anyone who has been reading Believe Me. I have not abandoned it completely, I have just been struggling to write the next part and just needed a break from it. I promise I will return to it at some point! I woke up this morning with this idea for a story in my head and just had to start writing it, normally I wouldn't start writing another story in the middle of writing another but I did need a break from the other one and I thought that if I got back into writing then I would have more ideas for Believe Me.

Just a little warning!

This story is going to be very disturbing and upsetting in some parts of it so if you are sensitive to violence and abuse then this story is probably no good for you.

Hope you enjoy this story and I would love it if you reviewed and let me know what you think and if I should continue!

Chapter One

Where the hell was she? Sookie was never normally late. The complete opposite actually, she always tried to arrive around 15 minutes earlier. Always.

I am sitting in her favourite restaurant for our weekly date night. We have been together for 2 years now and because of work, family and friends we struggle to get out and about sometimes. Sure we see each other a lot but we are normally so tired or desperate to have alone time that we spend our time in either her place or mine. So we decided about 5 months ago when things started to get a bit repetitive and a little bit boring that we should try our best to get out more. We decided that on a Wednesday night every week we would go out for a meal and then either go see a movie or go dancing or choose something else to do.

It has actually helped us get on a bit better as well, we had started having more disagreements and got a bit too comfortable with each other since we just sat around watching the tv together all the time. I think it was very healthy for our relationship to get out a bit, go on a walk after the meal and give us a chance to experience the outside world together.

Sookie always made me laugh and would try guess people's back story and the stuff she would come up with...well she was very imaginative. It was always a laugh and if one of us was especially tired then we would take it easy and just try make the activity after the meal a short one or something that required very little energy.

I had been waiting for her for around 20 minutes and had tried calling her cell a couple of times and she wasn't picking up so I was starting to get a bit worried. My twin sister Pam lived in the same apartment building as Sookie and was a good friend of hers, she was how we met each other. I knew that Pam would still be at home so I decided to ring her to ask her to go see if Sookie was at home.

"Hey, what's up?" She picked up on the 4th ring.

"Hey sis, could you do me a favour and go knock on Sookie's door please? She was meant to be at the restaurant 20 minutes ago and she isn't picking up her cell."

"Wow that's very un-Sookie like. Sure I'll go give her a knock now," I could hear her shut a door behind her.

"Okay thanks Pam, ring me back if she doesn't answer okay?"

"Sure thing."

I hung up and sat fidgeting with the edge of the table cloth. I just had a bad feeling and couldn't shake it off. I knew that if Sookie was okay then she would have text me or rang me to tell me she was going to be late. But then again maybe I was letting my imagination get ahead of itself. Her phone might have died and her car could have broke down or she could be held up at work and hasn't had a chance to ring me yet.

I sighed and ran my hands through my hair. Maybe I should just head over to Sookie's anyways and just wait for her there if she is just late. I had a key so I could just let myself in and cook something for her instead for when she got home.

Just as I was about to stand up my phone rang. It was Pam.

"She isn't there?"

"Eric you need to come here, NOW!" I had never heard my sister so shaken. Fuck. What has happened?

I stood up and threw a couple of bills on the table for taking it up for so long in a busy restaurant. My heart was racing and I was scared to ask what had happened.

"What's happened? Is she there? Is she okay?"

Pam didn't answer but she burst into tears on the other end of the phone. FUCK! I started running down the side walk. Sookie's apartment was only a couple of blocks down.

"Pam, Pam! What has happened? You're really scaring me here!"

"Are you the one that called miss?" I heard someone say in the background.

"Pam who is that? What's going on?"

"Eric...just...hurry...please," she choked out in between sobs. Then the line went dead.

WHAT THE FUCK HAD HAPPENED?

As I turned around the corner onto Sookie's street I paused. Outside her building there was an ambulance and 2 police cars.

I started running towards them, and I don't think I've ever ran that fast before but it still felt too slow.

What does everyone think? I have already written the second chapter which explains what Pam has found and will be updating that tonight. REVIEW PLEASE! :D
