Chapter 4: Can't lose you
Authors note:i dont own primeval unfortunatly i wish i did that would be well good
A young man paced up and down the ARC checking his phone every three or four seconds but with no luck judging by the expression on his he waiting for a text maybe?A phone call?.Whatever it was it was urgent as the man looked sad mixed with fear and tension as if as if it was someone he cared about but more than cared for he felt for ,would do anything for ,as if they were his life ,as though he protected them, to save their lives whenever .But who was it?Parents?,Family,A loved one,a girl, a boy ,a man, a woman?
--------------------------------------------- Bzzz,Bzzz the deep blue mobile sprung to life even though it was smashed up pretty badly it vibrated against the crunched metal the smashed glass,the blood,the victim,the baby. ---------------------------------------------
'Damn it answer
where are you oh God please be ok' still padding up the floor in the
ARC a slightly older man reached out placing a firm grip on his
shoulder 'look Connor she'll be ok stop worrying' it was Stephen
trying to calm Connor down and to stop him from moving as it was
quite irritating
'Stephen she's not answering her mobile and I havn't heard from her
in twenty four hours I daren't go round her parents they'll call the
police and she may just be at a mates house so I'll look like an
idiot yet again.I need to be out there looking for her'
'Look
Connor there's nothing we can do till Cutter and Jenny get here as
someone needs to be here incase the detector goes off then we can go
ok?' Stephen resurred him ,with that the doors swung open smashing
hard against the interior of the building swinging ferociously to and
was Cutter and Jenny storming into the room their steps insync
with one another.
'Right Connor go, take Stephen with you, me and
Jenny will stay here' with that Connor grabbed his hat and phone and
legged it through the double doors Stephen close behind but not close
enough as the doors swung back and hit him in the face knocking him
to the ground. 'Oww Conn you bastard watch it' he shouted towards
Connor but it was no use he was out of sight already at the
seconds he was back to his feet legging it to the exit
to catch up with Connor as Cutter and Jenny watched with amused grins
on their faces.
-------------------------------
The blood ran down the gash onto her eyelashes from her head ,by now her repunzel blonde hair was an evil red almost as evil in colour as was Helen Cutters conscience and soul. The crimson red was upstaged by streeks of blonde that stuck out, her pulse and heartbeat were low,cut and gashed this way and that ,it had been just over a day and still know one had found her the road was quite hardly anyone ever used it but what if she was never found? Only the cd player still worked beating out clubland songs over and over again on a loop the sound still perfect, how had no one heard it?blood showed up through the fabric of her top,past the bump-was it really from the bump?how much longer would she last?
------------------------------
The pickup raced
round the corners ,third gear to fourth straight into fifth racing
round every road possible, no radio just both men so alert in the
heat of the chase.A matter of life and death of not just one person
but two established as one
'Connor bloody slow down you'll get us killed you idiot'
Stephen yelled
'Fine then ,my God Stephen have you never chased after
someone you were in love with to make sure there safe simply because
you care about them so much and..what?'
'Connor did you
just say what I think you said?' Stephen exclaimed shooting the
student a quizicle look
'what' Connor
spoke back in a very shy mode
'Conn are you in love with
Abby?'
'Erm well er' the tension mounted as Connor tried to figure
a way out of it 'erm you know that's a hard one I'm going to have to
get back with you on that one' causing Stephen to shoot him a
extremly serious look 'what? Stephen what? why are you looking at me
like that for?'
'Connor it's ok mate if you are in love with her
it's perfectly natural you don't have to be so embarresssed about
knew you like her but we never knew you were inl ove with her.
I mean you two spend every second of your day together, you work
together,live together and she's a beautiful woman,Conn if your
hearts in it mate all I'm going to say to you is go for it but dont
screw up and try act normal for once ,if you do act on it be careful
'
'Yeah?'
'Yes just act normal Connor she
seems to like you and you have saved her life before if that doesn't
show you care then what will'
The student
looked down at the steering wheel and back to the road every few
seconds before he spoke again 'thanks Stephen your the only person
who hasn't thought it was a big wind up and I do like her a lot I
guess I am in love with her'.
'Conn the only reason I'm saying be
careful is because I had my heart broken by a woman when I was
roughly your age and to be honest I never really got over it' he
spoke looking out at the passing scenery
'Yeah and don't worry
Stephen I'll be careful but,.... who broke your heart?'
'Sorry
Connor I'm not saying'
'Why?'
'Look I would but I can't incase
you let it slip'
'I just admited
I'm in love with one of our could blatently come out
with it infront of everyone who we work with and infront of her and
tell them so at least we would be equal'.
'Fine but no-one can ever find out
and I'm serious promise not to say anything if anyone finds out I'm
stuffed'
'I promise'
'.....Helen'
'Oh my God Helen?' Connor
spoke back half speechless 'you.. you mean Cutters not so dead
anymore wife?Oh.... sorry mate but your way better off without her if
you dont mind me saying and I see why no-one can ever find out
now'
'Yeah I think you may be right there anyway come on lets find
the love of your life'
'Stephen we have to bleeding find her first before I can tell her how
I feel'.
The hours quickly passed and with no luck decided to call it a day
and search tomorrow.
'Look Connor..
we will look tomorrow yeah, thanks for dropping me off at mine'
'Yeah
see you later night.' he replied as Stephen slammed the door to the
pickup and made his way to the front door of his house as Connor
pulled away from the kirb heading for the end of the isolated street
turning left to head up the main road as it split off one way headed
for the county, the other was the long winding country chose
to go through the country road instead of the small village itself as
the pickup dragged round the corner it's speed dropped as he changed
gear going round the road.
Suddenly,
something caught his eye something large, wrapped into solid heges
and a huge tree.
Something blue .He reconised it
immediatly.
"No..." He cried, the pickup skidding to a
stop as he jumped out and ran over . "ABBY!" he screamed as
he saw the blue mini cooper, moulded against the tree trunk like
playdough... and worse, he saw a darker red that splattered the front
window like paint.
'Oh Abby baby please be ok'.The door was
crunched the hinge forced from the metal fixing but it also ment the
door could be eased was heavy like a dead body being carried over one
shoulder but she was in there, he needed her, she needed him, they
needed each other but that spurred him on to pull out more strength
than ever before forcing the clump of metal away from the body of the
car as Connor shifted his weight from one leg to another,tears
forming in his eyes as the gap between door and car became larger
just enough for him to fit through to inspect the interior.
The
gap was small and jagered off the metal his eyes scanned across and
back the inside was crushed ,the crimson blood everywhere the only
thing barely visible was the steering wheel and the womans body.
