Chapter 11

Shawn filled out his second report, making it into a paper airplane and throwing it at Juliet. She gasped and groaned, opening up the report. "Shawn, this is official paper! Not crafting material!" she scolded. Shawn couldn't help but laugh. "Why don't you just go back to doing nothing?" Juliet suggested. Shawn smiled and stood up from Juliet's desk. He quickly squeezed Juliet's hand and walked into Chief Vick's office. Juliet sighed and turned back to her paperwork. Only a few more reports to go.

After twenty more excruciating minutes, Juliet was finished filling out paperwork. She looked at the time, it was just barely 2:00. Shawn would be leaving soon, and Juliet would be left alone to do more paperwork. Shawn looked over at Juliet, tilting his head towards the door, signaling for Juliet to meet him outside. She nodded, a smile playing at her lips. Juliet waited for Shawn to leave and stood up a few seconds later, walking out to the parking lot. Shawn stood by his truck, waiting.

He smiled when he caught glimpse of Juliet. Juliet walked towards him, getting pulled into a hug. She looked up into Shawn's warm eyes, pushing her lips against his. "I'll see you after work." Shawn said, not even pulling his lips off of hers yet. Juliet pulled away from their kiss and walked back into the station.

Juliet was immediately greeted by Chief Vick. She jumped and looked outside to see if Chief Vick could have seen them kiss, from where she was standing. Luckily, Chief couldn't. "O'Hara, we have a case down at Westmont College. Someone turned up dead, I'll explain on the way there." Karen explained quickly, grabbing her arm and bringing her to a cop car.

On the way there, Karen explained everything. "There was a young male, mid-twenties, turned up dead in the middle of the campus hallway. No one has left the building since he was found dead." She told. Juliet listened carefully. The car came to a stop in front of a university surrounded by cop cars, ambulances, and firetrucks.

Juliet got out of the car and crossed the crime scene tape with Chief Vick. They entered the hallway where the body was found. A pale body lay in front of them, outlined in tape and a series of people were taking pictures. There was a few stab wounds by the man's stomach.

"I'll go talk with some people." Juliet told Chief Vick. She nodded and Juliet left to check the dorm where the man was found dead by. Inside, Juliet found two hysterical girls. She walked over to them and smiled. "Hello, I'm detective O'Hara. Do you think one of you could tell me who this man is?" Juliet asked, trying to keep a smile.

"His name is Roy Wards. He was my boyfriend." One of the girls told. Juliet nodded, writing down the info on a notepad.

"Do you know anyone that would have anything against Roy?" She asked, a warm smile was held on her face.

"There might have been one person." The girls exchanged looks.

"Garret Salter." one of them chimed in. Juliet wrote the name down on her notepad.

"Does he live in this building? Or anyone near it?" Juliet questioned. Both girls nodded.

"He lives on the second floor, first room on the left." one of them replied. Juliet nodded, thanked the girls and left. She walked upstairs to the second floor and knocked on the first door on the left.

A young man answered. "Hello." he smiled noticing that Juliet was a cop. "Is everything okay?" he asked.

Juliet shook her head, "Do you mind if I come in?" she asked. The man nodded and opened the door wider.

"So," Juliet continued sitting down on a couch, "Someone named Roy Wards was found dead today. I talked to his girlfriend and she said that you might have a reason to commit this crime." Juliet tried to break the news to him easily.

His face flushed to a dark shade of red. He stared at her for a second, mumbling something under his breath.

"Do you have anything you want to say?" Juliet smiled, trying to calm him down.

Garret shook his head. His breathing sped up and he began walking towards Juliet. He picked up a knife and held it up in the air.

"Garret, let's not do anything that we regret now." Juliet tried to calm him. She stood up and reached for the knife in his hand. He pulled it away. Juliet backed towards the door, holding her hands in the air. Behind her, she reached for the doorknob and twisted it, only to find that it was locked. Garret inched closer, aiming the knife for her pregnant stomach.

"Listen Garret, you can probably tell that I'm pregnant, right." she began reasoning. He barely nodded. "So, you know that if you kill me you will get charged with murder of two people, not even counting Roy." she continued.

"I didn't kill Roy!" he shouted, pulling his arm back. He threw his arm forward, plunging the sharp knife into Juliet stomach. She fell to the ground, clenching her stomach, feeling blood drip onto her hands. Garret ran towards the window and jumped out of it.

Juliet pressed the 'mayday' button in her walkie talkie, and waited for someone to answer.

Chief Vick answered. "O'Hara, what's your 20?" She asked.

"Second floor, first door on the left." Juliet replied. She reached for the lock on the door and unlocked it.

"On my way." she assured Juliet.

The door flung open and Chief Vick gasped, helping Juliet up. "I need an EMS here ASAP. Stab wound." Chief Vick told into her walkie talkie.

"I'll be right back. I'm going to look for something to stop the bleeding." Chief said looking around. She came back holding a few towels. Chief wrapped them around the knife, knowing not to pull it out.

"Chief, the babies." Juliet looked down at her stomach, feeling warm tears well up in her eyes.

"They're fine, right now we need to focus on getting the bleeding to stop." she told her, holding the towels in place.

After a few minutes, the ambulance arrived and lifted Juliet onto a gurney. They quickly brought her downstairs and into the ambulance, driving away. One of the paramedics stayed in the back and tended to her wound.

"Call Shawn." she managed to croak out before a darkness engulfed her.
