Upon ariving at the philly pd, lilly strode into the squad room and was approached by Nick vera. She couldnt help but notice the stares and smiles of sheer amusement on everyones face. "What the hell?" she thought "Do they know?" "Your boyfriend left a surprise on your desk" laughed Nick. "boyfriend? Nick is this another one of your jokes?" said one very confused lilly. Her mind raced. "No i wouldnt mess with you like that lilly i would have to be crazy to!" Nick said truthfully. "Wait you dont have a boyfriend?" nick asked suspiciously. "No... Was i supposed to?" lilly asked growing more nervous by the seconed. "Awkward? Well you must have a secret admirer" nick informed her. As lilly walked toward her desk concern nagged her thoughts "could it be him?" lilly wondered as fear caused her heart to beat faster. When she finally reached her desk she was surprised to see one lovely white rose and a white box topped with a blue ribbon. Lilly carefully lifted up the box and untied the ribbon. She slowly opened the box and almost screamed. Her face paled. She looked around wildly at scotty, nick, jeffries, and john. Lilly felt her knees growing weak and the room began to spin. She felt herelf falling into darkness but not before strong yet familiar arms caught her.
Scotty panicked as he saw lilly sinking to the floor. He did the only thing he could think of, he caught her as she fell. He gently layed her on the floor, putting his coat beneath her hair. He stood up and he dumped the contents of the box over her desk. while nick, jeffries, and john watched intently. What they all saw made their hearts freeze mid beat. Scattered over her desk were dozens and dozens of photos ranging from when she was a 10 year old girl to the now 30 year old women, they all knew and cared for. "Someones stalking lil" john whisperd breaking the silence that had settled over the room. From her place on the floor lilly stirred finally coming to.
Lilly had no idea why she was on the floor. She didnt remember falling. When she opened her eyes she saw the concered faces of her boss and co-workers. They slowly helped her up and into her desk chair. "lil are you okay?" Scotty said with mixed emotion. "yeah im fine" she whisperd trying more to reasure her self more than the others. "lil who did this?" jefferies asked gently. "i i dont know" She whisperd looking off to the left. It was plain for them to see she was holding something back. "whats that?" nick said as scottys had reached for a folded up paper. Scotty unfolded the paper and began to read it out loud. "Ha ha Little Lillian. Did you like my surprise? And yes Even after 20 years, I couldnt help but remember you. I've been watching you ever since that night. I will get you!" scotty finished slowly. "lilly what night was he talking about?" stillman asked. "do you want to talk to us in private? would that make you more comfortable?" jefferies asked in a sympathetic tone. lilly nodded in agreement.
After stillman closed his office door and everyone sat down. they waited patiently for lilly to begin her story. "20 years ago today back in 1988. When i was 10, i was walking to the store alone to get my alcoholic mother a drink. A...A man grabbed me and dragged me into an alley" lilly began her voice shaking. Everyone dreaded what she would say next. They knew she was on the verge of tears. " He...he threw me to the ground and punched me. I tried to scream. i fought as hard as i could" lilly said starting to cry. "He raped me" she blurted out sobbing harder puller her knees to her chest hiding her face. Scotty, nick and jefferies stared at the floor not knowing what to do. "I'm sorry I'M SORRY" Lilly sobbed. The expression on her face told them she had suffered alone with this. "lil It aint your fault" scotty said hugging her to his chest. He wished this hadnt happend to her. "oh god anyone but her i love her" scotty thought.
When lilly had calmed down enough, they walked back into the office. Lilly approached her desk slowly and suddenly froze as the phone began to ring angirly.
