Amy tried to close the door, but he put his foot between the door and the frame. "Now is that anyway to greet your husband" he sneered before pushing the door open causing Amy to fall on the floor. He closed the door behind him as Amy scrambled to get up.
"Y-you're not supposed to be here" she stammered
"Why? Because you left me for dead in our burning house? Or you just thought I wouldn't find you?" He kept walking towards Amy causing her to walk back until her back hit the kitchen island.
"Imagine my surprise" he started running a finger down her face, "when I wake up in the ICU with second and third degree burns on my body and no wife in sight. She wasn't in the house. She wasn't in the waiting room. She wasn't in the bathroom. She wasn't even in the state!" he yelled slamming his hands on the counter behind her. "5 months Amy. 5 months I've been looking for my wife, but I can't find her. Then I get a call from my buddy Ben. You remember Ben, his son just finished med school started interning at Pasadena General, calls his dad all excited that the amazing Dr. Stevens works at the same hospital, only she isn't Dr. Stevens anymore she's Dr. Fowler. But that doesn't make sense because we never signed divorce papers. So tell me Amy what is my wife doing almost 3000 miles away with her maiden name?"
Amy was terrified to say the least. She had never seen him like this, so calm and calculating yet so evil. She had seen yelling Mike, verbally abusive Mike, kicking and hitting Mike, even Mike the rapist, but she had never seen this version.
"I'm waiting on my answer Amy. "
She had to get out of here, her phone was still on the couch and and she knew he didn't lock the front door. If she could only get to it.
"Of course now you're silent." He lowered his head and chuckled, and she saw this as her chance. She kneed him as hard as she could in the groin and bolted for the door, she didn't even bother reaching for her phone. But either she wasn't as fast as she thought, or he gained super human speed, because hust before she could meet the door she felt him yank her back by her shirt. "Where are you going sweetie? You still didn't answer my question. You know what hurt the most Amy, not that you left without a trace, but when I find you, you look all comfy and cozy with another man. The same man in Harvard you said I didn't have to worry about. Do you know how that makes me feel?"
Amy continued to remain silent, trying to hold back the flood of tears ready to escape. "Answer me!" he shouted, pushing her across the room into the direction of the tv. With he force that he pushed her sent the tv toppling off the stand and sent her crashing to the floor. He came over and looked at the broken tv, "Now look what you made me do." He reached for hand, but she pulled back and tried to run again. This time he pulled her back by her hand, "Why do you insist on running!"
"Please just let me go " she whimpered
"Now you speak". They suddenly heard a triple knock followed by her name. Mike let her go, and walk towards the kitchen, "Get rid of them. Or I will" he said pulling out a knife from the knife block on the counter.
Sheldon had just returned to the living room, when he heard what soundrf like shouting and a crash coming from Amy's apartment. 'That's odd. Amy's generally a quiet person.' He thought, he opened his apartment door and crossed the hall to Amy's
Knock knock knock "Amy"
He heard nothing then some shuffling and then finally Amy's face appeared through a tiny crack she made with the door.
"I heard some strange noises coming from you're apartment. I just wanted to make sure everything was ok."
She nodded quickly, too quickly, "Everything's fine. Was just watching some reality tv and got too excited and knocked down a glass. You can go back to your apartment now, have a good night" she said closing the door. Something seemed wrong, but he decided to obey her wishes and go back to his apartment
"He's gone now"
"So he lives right across the hall. Is that why you picked this apartment, so you could be nest to your lover."
"Sheldon and I are not lovers"
"Stop lying to me!" he yelled cuffing her in the jaw,, "I always knew you would do it. You always wanted to leave me!" he it her across the face, "You never wanted to stay" He hit her in the stomach, "You never wanted kids" another hit to her face, this one cutting her mouth, "you just wanted Sheldon" he kneed her in the stomach and she couldn't stop the groan of pain that came out. "But jokes on you sweetheart" he said placing his hands on he throat, "If I can't have you. Nobody will"
Amy started gasping as she felt the air leaving her body. Her apartment door flew open to reveal Sheldon's shocked face, "Amy?"
Mike let go of her to look at the interruption "Mike?" Amy could see Sheldon putting the pieces together. "You son of a bitch!" Sheldon yelled before lunging at Mike. Sheldon managed to get aa few punches in before Mike threw him on the ground and started hitting relentlessly.
"Leave him alone!" Amy yelled trying to pull Mike off, but all she succeeded in doing was getting hit in the eye. Despite the throbbing in her eye, she had to get Mike off of Sheldon. She pulled on his neck, and he got off of Sheldon only long enough to push her into the bookshelf knocking off the books and inadvertently kicking the forgotten knife closer to Mike.
Through her pain gilled head she heard Sheldon scream out in pain. She opened her eyes just in time to see Mike thrust the knife into Sheldon again.
"No!" she yelled scrambling towards him. There was so much blood. She tried putting pressure but there were more wounds than she had hands.
The bloody knife clattered to floor next to her. "Look what you made me do Amy? This is all your fault.".
Sheldon grabbed her now bloody hands, "P-Pen-penny" he forced out his chest heaving with every breath.
"Mike kicked her off him "Get up" he said dragging her off the floor, but she fused to let go of Sheldon. This earned her a blow to the jaw that literally made her see stars. She felt her body being half carried/half dragged out the apartment. She tried to stand, but didn't realis she was at the top of the stairs until she slipped from Mike's hand and her head hit the landing with a resounding thud. Making her whole world dark instantly.
"Why are we going over so late again" Leonard whined
"I don't know. Sheldon just tested come quick" Penny said showing him the phone
"Yeah. But I just got off. I want to sleep" Leonard said with a yawn.
"You could nap on his couch" Penny said as they started to climb the stairs. She saw small red dots on them as she got on the second floor. "Leonard? Is that blood?' she said pointing to it
He squinted and bent to look at it. "It looks like it."
"Amy" Penny said before bolting up the stairs. Leonard ran after his wife. Just before they got to the fourth floor they saw Amy laying in a heap on the stairs
"Oh God Ames! "Penny shouted. She rolled her over to see her face all bruised, "Wake up Amy. Come on wake up!" she shouted frantically. Leonard ran up to the apartment ti=o see 4B's door still open. He walked further in to see Sheldon lying near some scattered books in a pool of his own blood, "Oh God Sheldon!" he yelled
Amy's eye finally fluttered open and looked at Penny with unfocused eyes, "H-h-he" she wheezed, before coughing up some blood, "he fou-found me" she said as her eyes closed again.
