Second chapter to the story. Hope you guys liked the first chapter enough to continue. It gets intense right now haha. I got the idea for the ending of this chapter by watching the episode of "Castle" that Dana Delany was in a while back :)
Just a few blocks from the office, the group sat a table in the far corner of the bar. "Would you like to dance?" Peter asked Sam, who accepted and then gave Bud a look before walking onto the dance floor. Now that Bud and Megan were alone, Bud decided to have a chat with Megan.
"So Dr. Hunt, I heard Lacey was living with you now."
"She is, but only for a few months until Todd gets back."
"How does Lacey feel about that?"
"It's not the ideal situation for her. She wishes she could live with both her parents at the same time, but she also doesn't want her parents to be unhappy."
"She just wants what's best for you and Todd. What does she think about Peter?" Megan looked up from her drink and gave Bud a confused look, debating what to say next.
"She thinks he's great. Why?" Bud just shrugged his shoulders and took a sip of his beer, so she just dropped the conversation. As the song ended, Sam and Peter began walking back to the table when someone called out to Peter. It was none other than Dani.
"Hey! I thought you had other plans?" Peter exclaimed as he walked over to her planting a kiss on her lips. Megan looked down at her glass of wine focusing all her attention on the red liquid. It wasn't until she heard Dani calling her name that she was brought back to the table and all the expectant faces staring at her.
"Sorry. Hey Dani, what's up?"
"Just got back from dinner with my mom. Thought I'd stop by and have a drink. Last case close smoothly?" Megan smirked at that.
"As smooth as any murder case can be."
"What happened to the victim?"
As Megan was about to reply, Peter decided to answer for her. "The victim's husband hired a hitman after he found out she was having an affair with his boss."
"Damn. Sounds like a prick to me." Dani laughed at smiled at Peter. Megan pretended to look at her phone when Dani's face inched closer to Peter's. Before their lips met, Megan stood up from the table startling the other four at the table.
"Sorry, I have to get home before Lacey goes looking for me. Have fun, I'll see you guys tomorrow."
"You sure? Do you need me to walk you back to your car?" Peter asked. Megan shook her head and told him she could find her car just fine. As she walked down the street back to the office, she wished she had asked Bud if he could walk her back. The night had become cold and the air was thick with rain, different from the clear skies just hours before. It was almost as if the weather was trying to match Megan's mood. As she nearing the entrance to the parking garage, she almost ran into a tall, cloaked man walking out.
"Sorry, didn't see you there." She joked, laughing off the fact that her heart started pounding in her chest. The man lowered the hood of his jacket and Megan saw a scar right across his right eye, she figured from a bar fight many years ago, then it hit her that the guy was a part of a case she had worked on a week ago. The next thing she knew, the guy had her pinned up against the wall, with a knife against her throat.
"Say a word, and I swear I will cut your throat." Megan was frozen in terror, she could tell the man wasn't lying, and she didn't want to chance anything with the knife poking her skin. Her eyes were wide, and she prayed to God not to let any tears fall. "You put my brother in jail Dr. Hunt, now you must pay the consequences." He then turned her around and walked her back into the parking garage, where they came upon a parked black car, with no license plate. The man then pulled out something that looked like a cop club.
"Where the hell did that come from?" Megan thought. She didn't have time to figure it out, because in the next second, he swung it against the back of her head effectively knocking her unconscious. The man knelt down so that he could pick the doctor up, and then proceeded to place her in the trunk of his car. With one last look at the security camera on the wall, he gave a polite nod and a smile before climbing into the driver seat and taking off.
So I also got the idea from this conversation me and a guy were having during human physiology today. Not only has my lab partner and I decided that the guy is actually a girl today because he had no clue what a penis was (started Reproductive unit today, though jokingly of course ;) ) but him and I were talking about how we would kidnap people. I came up with the idea of throwing them in my trunk, while he came up with the hitting and then waving at the camera.
Anyways.. Comment and possibly alert my story? You know you want to ;)
