Chapter 20
Sophie's POV
I wake up after what seemed to be the best sleep I had had in ages. I look down beside me and see Sian tangled in her drip wire. I slowly climb out of bed and untangle the wires before planting a soft kiss on her forehead.
"Sian, I'm just going to the toilet. I'll be back soon I promise." I make my over to the door and just as I was about to leave I hear a muffled noise from behind me.
"Yeah, you better be. This beds suddenly got cold." She sounds so cute when she's tired. I better hurry back.
"Don't worry, 2 mins max babe. I love you."
"I love you too. But if youre not back within two minutes then I might have to think about what I just said." I laughed and sprinted out of the room.
I went to the loo, speed washed my hands and then sprinted back to her room. On the way back to the room Sian's doctor stopped me outside the door that I accidentally entered yesterday.
"Great news Sophie. We dock in Dover tomorrow and from because of Sian's magnificent progress we have booked you, Sian, Rosie, and I do believe his name to be Jason, 4 seats on the earliest flight to Manchester. From their Sian will be transferred to a patients ward where she will stay for about a week, maybe two. That all depends on if she has started to eat and drink again. But hopefully within the next say 3 weeks Sian will be back at home and very near full recovery!"
"Wow, ermm, I don't quite know what to say. Thankyou Lee, thankyou so much. I cant believe it. Thankyou!"
"Don't mention it! Now, don't you think you should be getting in that room and telling your fiancee the good news?"
"Yeah, thanks again Lee."
"Just doing my job." I beam at him and the push open Sian's door.
"Sorry, I was so long Sian I spoke to your doctor and he says that he has booked us on the earliest flight to Manchester tomorrow and then you will spend two weeks on a ward in hospital and then you can come home! Isnt that great babe."
"Yeah, sounds great Soph."
"Sian, what's wrong. Ive just told you that you only have two weeks left in hospital before you can come home and you look like you've seen a ghost."
"Yeah well, I wish I had seen a ghost to be honest."
"What? What do you mean Sian? What's happened?"
"Whilst you were gone I had a visit from the police."
"What did they say?"
"They have released both Sally and Kevin on bail pending further investigations. Apparently there was no CCTV cameras in the corner of the café where Sally put the sugar into my drink so there is no evidence to it being her."
"What? But I know that it was her!"
"Yeah, but that's not enough Soph, no-one saw what she put in the cup, so we can't bee 100% sure that it was her."
"Right, well why is Kevin out?"
"Sally gave him an alibi for the time of all of the kidnaps, attacks, hostages, confrontations, everything. Wherever we said Kevin was, Sally said he was somewhere else. I'm not sure how they did it but somehow they have managed to delete all of the CCTV footage of Kevin with me, Kevin with you, Kevin in general and also they managed to get their stories identical to each others. It's weird, even the police said that it was strange. But like I said, they are only out pending further enquiries."
"Right, so what does that mean? If there are new leads to either of the cases they will be back inside?"
"Pretty much yeah."
"Right, so all we need to do is find a lead, and get the police to investigate it?"
"Soph, it's not that simple!"
"Why isnt it? It seems pretty simple to me!"
"Soph, it just wont be okay. But the police did say that once the boat was cleared nothing is allowed to be cleaned or touched until there has been a thorough investigation of the ship to look for any clues no matter how minor."
"So the police are literally doing everything they can? Why are you so worried then?"
"Well, now that they're out there is nothing stopping them from striking again, nothing stopping them from coming in here and killing us both!"
"Sian, they can't do that. Havent the police put one of those things in place which means they cant come within so many metres of you?"
"I dunno, they didn't mention anything and I never asked."
"Oh, well if they didn't then I will protect you Sian. Im not going to let anything happen to you."
"No, you cant do that Soph. I don't want you getting hurt because of me!"
"I wont do Sian, don't worry about that."
"But Soph I love you too much to let you do that. I cant be responsible for what they do to you."
"Why would you be responsible Sian?"
"Because youre doing it for me."
"Yeah but I'm doing it out of my own freewill, you arent forcing me to do anything that I don't wanna do!"
"I love you, you know that right?"
"Yeah I know. I love you too."
I smiled at her and walked over to the bed. I adopted my previous position, snuggled into her side and listened to her heartbeat. I wish I could have stayed like this forever but all good things eventually come to an end. I just wish that this moment hadnt. The door to the room opens and I am met by two piercing eyes. Not the type of piercing that makes your heart melt, but the piercing eyes that make your stomach lurch.
"Awww, isn't that cute Sal. Look at the two of them, all cosy in that bed. Shame we'll have to disturb them!" I grip onto Sian, not wanting to let her go and speak up.
"What do you want, get out of here now." I cant believe that they're here, "Sian press your emergency button thingy, and call the doctor." I whisper to Sian.
"Oh, don't worry Soph, we'll be leaving very very soon, but not until we have you with us."
"Oh there's no chance of that. I'm staying put, you cant move me."
"Soph what are you doing?" Sian whispers to me.
"Well, if I can stand my ground then the doctor will have time to get here. Have you pressed the button?"
"Yeah, I have."
"Good." I look back at Kevin just as he speaks.
"I do believe that I will be able to move you very easily."
"How do you planning on doing that then?"
"I have my ways."
"Yeah and what ways are these then?"
"I just have my ways okay."
"No, if you have your ways then mention your ways because I don't believe that you do have your ways if you wont tell me your ways because if your ways were that important then you wouldn't be afraid to share your ways with me." I confused myself there, so I hope I confused him.
"What did you just say? I didn't quite catch it?"
"I said…." He interrupted me.
"I know what you said, it was just slightly confusing."
"Oh really, I completely understood everything that I said. If you like I can repete it but I cant promise that you will understand it a second time round because if you didn't quite catch it the first time then like I have just said you might not understand it. it is quite confusing if you don't know what I'm saying. Would you like me write it down for you to read, then maybe you will be understand what I was trying to say."
"Ermm, Sophie I don't know what you are trying to do but in a second I am coming over there, removing you from Sian's bed and taking you with me and your mother."
"Acutally, you are no parents of mine, so she cant be my mother."
"Soph, I gave birth to you."
"Shame I cant remember that stage in my life isnt it. Then there may be another witness to the birth. But because I have erased all memory of ever knowing you from my brain, I don't know the two of you so goodbye strangers." I was loving this, they were both either playing along or they actually were confused by.
"Sophie I will ask you one more time to come over here, or we are coming to get your ourselves."
"Right, in have two things to say to that. Number one you havent even asked me to come over there yet so you cant be asking me one more time because that would have meant that you had previously asked me which as I have already mentioned, you havent. And two, there is no way that I am going over to you willingly because I don't wanna be anywhere near the two of you so if you wouldn't mind me and my girlfriend would like to go to sleep!"
"Don't try to be clever Sophie, get over here or we will come and get you."
"No you wont!" I looked behind Kevin and Sally and saw 2 policemen and Sian's doctor. Kevin stood no chance now!
"You wanna bet Sophie."
"Ermm, yeah I do actually."
"GET HERE NOW SOPHIE!"
"Ermm, excuse me sir but I'm going to have to ask you to come with me. Under your bail conditions you were told that you werent allowed anywhere near these two girls and as you have both breached your bail conditions you are coming with us."
"I told you you wouldn't get me Kevin! Have fun, byeeee!"
Me and Sian both watched as Kevin and Sally were taken away. Once they were gone the doctor came to check if we were both okay and then he left us alone. I turned and kissed Sian on the lips softly as she returned the kiss.
"I love you Sophie Webster, seriously what you just did then was just wow. I cant believe what you said to him. That you had the courage to stand up to the man that nearly killed me. I love you so much, you are my world and I could never live without you. You are my knightress, or whatever the female version of a knight is, in shining armour" she winked at me, pecked me on the lips and then snuggled into my side and closed her eyes.
"I love you too Sian. Forever and always babe."
"Forever and always" Sian agreed and then I also snuggled down under the covers and I went to sleep, quite proud of myself for what I had just achieved!
