Christmas pt.2

Chapter- My Roommate is Scarier

I sat in a room. Dreary colored walls surrounded me, with a white plaster ceiling and dirt-stained once-white tile below me. The cold unforgiving metal chair and table bit through my pajama pants and shirt. I glared at the two-way mirror," I think I've been sitting here for at least an hour, this isn't scary, my roommates are scarier...Can I at least get a glass of water... Or ...I don't know... Word that you haven't killed my two roommates that'll be great."

The door popped open and I jumped as a older woman entered a file in her hands. I had to force myself not to look down as she entered because she was so short. I gulped and she silently sat down across from me and started to read the file.

She let out a,"Hmmmm," as she read,"I need your help Miss. Capris," her gaze snapped to me and I sat up straighter,"I can't seem to quite connect the dots on how you got mixed up in harboring a wanted felon."

"Wanted Felon? Harboring? Listen if your talking about Adrian I never liked the guy and wished Felda just broke up with the slime."

"No, no," the woman shook her head,"I'm afraid I'm not talking about this Adrian."

The wheels in my head started turning,"Listen, I don't know anyone else who'd be felony worthy besides Adrian-"

She pulled out a picture of Riddick from the party last night and set it on the table. I blinked, actually pretty confused,"Wait... Richard... This must be a mistake... Richard isn't a felon. He can't be."

"Oh, I can assure you Miss. Capris, he is, several charges actually."

"No, No..."

"Where is she," I heard the muffled voice of Hannah,"Where the fuck is she you fucking suit monkey!"

I stood and yelled,"Hannah!"

"Miss. Capris," the older agent snapped,"Your interview is not over-"

Hannah threw the door open, Falda and Falda's brother- a lawyer- stood behind her as well as a very flustered Agent Dominic,"I'm so sorry Ms. Lange I couldn't stop them-"

Hannah rushed in and hugged me,"Thank God you're okay!"

Falda's brother handed the short woman- Ms. Lange- his card,"Well Director Lange I can say that you all have put my sister and her friends through quite enough, not to mention the breaches of Human Rights."

Dominic sneered,"They were harboring a dangerous criminal they forfeited their rights."

"How dare you-" I started but Falda's brother shot me a look.

"I can definitively saw that both the FBI and NCIS will have quite a lawsuit on their hands now if you please, we'll be leaving."

"Why Mr.-," Ms. Lange looked down at his card,"-Green, I still have a few questions for your client."

"Absolutely not-"

I sat back down in the chair,"No, No Brent, it's fine. I'd like to say a few things. You can stay, keep me from saying anything stupid. Hannah can you wait in the hall?"

Hannah backed away, nodding,"Sure."

Brent stood beside me, a grim expression on his face. Ms. Lange raised an eyebrow,"Why the sudden change of heart?"

I crossed my arms and sighed,"Ms. Lange, I know we just met, but Richard... He's a good man. I didn't know he was a felon. If I had I wouldn't have let him stay. To me he was just a childhood friend that was calling in a favor. I... I thought I knew who he was... I guess I didn't," I was starting to get upset, and Ms. Lange's face softened.

"I'm actually grateful that he was there, because he saved me," I pulled up all the pain that I had been pushing down, I'd never see Riddick again, I knew that deep down,"Adrian- one of the people who was there at the party, Falda's boyfriend and my ex- he... He was drunk and... And," I broke fighting to get the words out. There was a hollow feeling inside of me and it just kept growing, I didn't care about Adrian at all but I had to change the focus of this little interview.

"Did he try to hurt you," Ms. Lange asked softly.

I nodded and Brent put his hand on my shoulder, horrified at what I had just said,"Is this true?"

"Y-Yes. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry!" I looked up at Ms. Lange,"This is why I can't believe you when you saw he's bad, I just can't. I'm sorry, If I knew where he was if tell you, but I don't I'm sorry!"

Ms. Lange patted my hand while she turned to the two-way mirror,"Agent Callen and Hanna, I need you to go pick up this Adrian fellow. Agent Blye, I want you and Officer Deeks to help Miss. Capris file a report."

Agent Blye and Officer Deeks both had escorted me to a conference room instead of an 'interview' room. Hannah and Fal had held my hands and refused to be separated from me. They promised not to speak during my report so they were allowed to stay. Agent Blye handed me a glass of water and a legal pad and pen,"Just take your time," she smiled,"All you need to do is write it down as well as give a verbal report," she hit a recording system,"Alright, let's get the necessities out of the way, please state your name and today's date, then you can start."

I easily did and started writing and speaking at the same time it wasn't long before I got to the end, shaking as i relived my experience. The feeling of Adrian's lips and weight as he crushed me,"I tried to fight him, but he was way too strong. Rid-Richard," I inwardly flinched at my mistake and kept going, I had been doing so well!

"He came out of nowhere. He walked in and protected me. Adrian tried to talk his way out of it, but Richard wouldn't hear it and told him to leave."

"I went to my room and tried to calm down, Richard checked on me throughout the night and brought me food and some water and some sleeping pills to calm down enough to sleep. That's all."

Agent Blye started wrapping everything up with a few simple questions and quickly left to file the paper work. Hannah was quaking with silent rage and Falda kept apologizing to me.

"It'll be okay now you guys," I murmured as we all hugged,"They're both gone."
