He got in his car and watched as Kiea and John walked into the dorm entrance hall.
" It's time to bring out the works." He said to himself as he openned his cell phone and looked at the one in his hand. It was dirty and the screen was a little cracked.He put it in a box as the person he was calling finally answered the phone.
" Yeah?"
"I need you to make a delivery for me."The man smiled to himself as he made the arrangments.
A guy pulled up in a car a few minutes later and when the box was handded to him he made for his destination.
Kiea and the rest were sitting in her dorm eating takeout waiting for Jennifer to come back from classes when someone knocked on the door. Dave answered it and let the detective in.
" Miss Taylor...Kiea, Were clearing out. We have no leads and we're needed back in town.You have my card if you need anything."
"Thank you detective. I'll be fine." She said as she leaned into John, and smiled. The detective nodded and said goodbye.
Jennifer was walking back to her dorm when she was pulled into a dark, shadowed covered area where she could barely see her hand in front of her face, let alone the person that pulled her in there. They had their hand over her mouth as they spoke in a whisper right by her ear.
" There's a box in front of you. You'll take it to your roommate, and tell her you found it outside your dorm door. No need to tell your brother or anyone about this little meeting. There's no need for dead bodies.Make sure she opens it, and doesn't throw it out right away. I'll be in touch." The guy pushed her back into the tree behind her, and then was gone.
Jennifer had never been so scared in her entire life. She waited till she could move without shaking, bent down picked up the box, and then ran to her dormroom, never stopping.She waited outside the door till she was sure she was composed and then walked through hopping she looked, and acted normal.
" Hey Jennifer."
"Hey everyone." She saw John, and Kiea looking cozey, and smiled " I see someone hooked up."
Kiea nodded " What's with the box?"
Jennifer looked down at the box " Oh, I found it outside by the door with your name on it."She handed Kiea the box who looked at it skeptically.
Kiea gasped when she openned the box and saw what was inside.
" What is it?"Dave asked.
Kiea pulled out the cellphone and felt her breath catch in her throat. "My cellphone. Watcher took it from me...the night...he..."Kiea felt so many emotions going through her at that time. She shook her head as she tried to make it to bathroom in the hall but ended up getting sick in the garbage can in the dormroom.
John rubbed her back and held back her hair for her.When she was done Dave handed her a towel and a soda from the machine.She took a drink as the cellphone began to ring. Everyone just stared at it for a minute. Kiea walked over after the 7th ring, and picked it up without saying anything. It didn't matter, he knew she answered.
" Like my little gift? Put it on speakerphone."
Kiea did as she was told then finally found her voice " What do you want?"
"A little hard to speak after puking your guts up isn't? Thought you got away, didn't you? Your smarter than that."
John put his arm around Kiea's shoulder.
Watcher laughed on the other end " Tell your boy to back of, your damaged goods. Your my property."
"No I'm not. Hows your head by the way?"
"Bitch! A cheap shot and you think you can talk back?" He laughed a little more.
" Keep on laughing. This game of cat and mouse is getting old.So how about I just say that it must really have hurt your ego when I got away. The one who outsmarts you is a seventeen year old girl who barley weighs in at 100 pounds. Now that I think about it you must not really be much of a man if you have to take girls to get them to be with you."
Dave looked out the window for any signs of a suspecious person near the dorms.
"Keep talking. I got you once and I'll get you again. This time I wont take my time with you. Oh and tell gorilla there at the window he's looking for a needle in a hay stack. I'm everywhere. Don't you forget it."
Dave looked at Kiea as the line went dead. She hung up the phone and threw it against the wall shattering it to pieces.
"I'm not going down this time.I refuse to be his victim!"
John pulled her into a hug as she cried and sank to the floor.
"I don't wanna die." Kiea cried as John looked at his friends for help.
Dave, and Rey walked down to the convinient store from campass to grab somethings for Kiea. She refused to go to sleep, afraid her dreams would be to real for her liking so the guys were gonna grab some stuff to help her relax, and calm her nerves.
"Hey D, do you think this guy will come personally or send someone to go after Kiea?" Rey asked as they walked down a medicine isle.
" I don't know. If he does come he better bring an army because I'll kill him of I get my hands on him."
Rey nodded " I think Randy is starting to worry about Jenn being in the middle. He said something about asking her to go home for a while."
"Can you blame him?"
They payed and caught a cab back to the campass. When they reached the door to the dormroom there was a yellow envelope tacked to the door with Kiea's name on it. Rey pulled it down and looked at Dave.
" What do we do?"
Dave shrugged " I guess give it to her so she can show the detective when he comes back up."
" If he comes back up.They couldn't even get a hold of him earlier when John tried."
They walked in and saw Kiea sitting in the same place she was when they left. By the window with her knees pulled up to her chest, staring at the wall as if she was waiting for something. John was sitting beside her trying to get her to move.
"John this might be a bad time, but we found this outside the door."Rey handed him the envelope.
John looked at it and then slowly put it infront of Kiea. It was the first sound she made since the phone call as she looked down at the envelope.
"I don't want to open it."
"Do you want us to throw it away?" Dave asked.
Kiea looked at it intently then shook her head no " I'll look at it tomorrow. I can't do this right now."
John nodded in understandment and put the envelope on her desk.John then picked Kiea up and laid her in her bed, before he walked away Kiea grabbed his hand. He turned and looked down at her.
"Stay with me."
John nodded and laid down beside her. Things were gonna get deep real quick, he could feel it. He laid there with Kiea's head on his chest, stroking her hair. He looked at the ceiling and praying silently with God that he would keep her safe.
