A/N : I wanted to say that I'm sorry for the mystakes of the previous chapter, I was so taken by my inspiration and my story that I didn't see them. I'm really sorry!

As Scotty was driving, Lilly was reading Kathleen's diary. She was trying to avoid his look and didn't want to talk with him.

"Lilly, will you please listen?" Scotty said, having a look at her.

"Not now." She answered as cold as she had responded before. 'Why is he so persistant?' She thought. She didn't want to speack with him about that.

"When then?" He asked, still determined. She knew that she would have to speak with him at a given time, but this moment hadn't come yet.

"I don't know. Listen Scotty, I can't now okay? Just give me some time." She said, and then she sighed. She was very frustated, if she gave him an answer maybe she would regret it all her life. It made it even worse, her thoughts were completely blurred. She was so scared to be hurt once again, but she had to live her life! She was tired of being the strong Lilly, tired of hiding her real emotion to everybody, tired to be alone.

When Scotty and Lilly arrived they saw police cars in front of an old, odd house, in the middle of abandonned warehouses. The sad grey house was covered with ivies, and the woody door was barely closed.

They got out of the car and went to meet one of the cop. "He's hiding in the house, he ran in it when he saw us coming." He explained to the two detectives.

As they nodded, they put bullet-proof vests, unholstered their guns and followed the cops whom were in front of the door, prepared to entered in the house. When they entered into the house, they all widened their eyes as an awful smell came to their noses, a smell of cigarette, mixed with a smell of rotten food. It seems that someone lived there.

They checked all the rooms that were on the first floor, trying to forget the smell, but there wasn't anybody. They quietly went upstair and started to check all the room. Lilly followed Scotty in the first room they reached on the second floor. It was like he wanted to protect her, he was always in front of her. In the room there was a man who was sitting on the floor waiting for them, he had greasy, long, dark hair.

"Anthony Wilson?" Lilly asked, aiming her gun towards the man.

The man slowly nodded. "What do you want? I've done nothing." He said to them.

"We'll see that." Scotty replied, while handcuffing him.

"I told you, I didn't do anything!" Anthony Wilson exclaimed, indignantly.

Lilly was sitting in front of him and Scotty was leaning on the wall behind Lilly. "So why did you ran when you saw the cops coming?" Lilly said, raising an eyebrow.

"I think we never know with the cops." He answered, leaning in his chair, with a slight smile. "I've never really appreciated them."

"Do you remember Kathleen Evans?" Scotty asked, doing as if he hadn't heard the comment.

"Let me see... Kathleen Evans..." He murmured, while thinking. "Oh yeah, Kathleen Evans, she was at my college, and?"

"We heard that you love to bother her." Scotty replied, while sitting next to Lilly. As he sat next to her, she felt her cheeks blushed, but she try to stay as cold as she was this morning. She mustn't show him that she was gonna let him get in and she hadn't decided yet.

"Maybe... and so what? It was a long time ago! I don't even know where she is now or what she became." Anthony answered.

"She was killed, Anthony." Scotty said coldly.

Anthony's jaw dropped open. "She was killed?" He repeated as if he hadn't heard well. It seems that it was a real shocked to know that she was dead, even if he told everybody that he hated her.

Scotty and Lilly looked at each other, it seems that he didn't know she was killed.

"Do you remember if one of your college friend particularly hated her?" Lilly demanded.

"College friend?" He asked, surprised. "When she was killed?" He continued.

"In 1998." Scotty answered.

"1998? Wow... it's been a long time ago..." He said, thinking about his college years. "No, I don't think one of us killed her. We were still teenagers in our minds, wanting to be feared by everybody... Playing the rebels, that's all!"

Scotty sighed, knowing that they won't learn anything more from him.

As Lilly and Scotty sat at their desk, Stillman went to see them. "So, how did it go with Anthony Wilson?" He asked them.

"It seems that our guy isn't the murderer." Scotty sighed.

"He was pretty surprise when he heard that she was killed." Lilly completed, looking at Stillman. She didn't want to look at Scotty, to meet his brown dark eyes.

"Yeah, an other dead end..." Stillman said, taking off his glasses and wiping them clean.

Then Nick and Will went towards them. "We discovered that 5 years ago, Joshua Miller was arrested for agression." Nick said and Will gave the file to Scotty.

"Really?" Lilly asked surprised.

"He agressed a woman..." Scotty observed while reading. "Maybe it wasn't the first woman he hit."

"You like hitting women?" Lilly asked, she was leaning against the wall in front of Joshua Miller, next to Scotty.

"No, why are you saying that?" Joshua replied, anxiously.

"We know that you were arrested for agression against a woman." Scotty said, noticing he was uneasy as his hands were sweaty.

"It was five years ago... I failed an important exam, so I went to a bar and got drunk." He explained, while looking at his hands.

"Did you hit Kathleen too?" Scotty asked, approaching him to make him more anxious.

"No way! I was too much in love to touch her!" He exclaimed.

"So why are you so anxious?" Lilly said. Joshua tried to hide his worries, but didn't succeed very well. "What are you hiding?" She continued while approaching too.

"No... nothing... I'm not hiding anything." He answered, his anxious raising.

"Come on Josh, tell us everything." Scotty said as he was behind Joshua.

"Okay... " He sighed, looking at the table. "I'm not very proud of it but... I know she was stalked..." He continued, looking ashamed.

"You know who it was?" Lilly said, frowninng. "Why didn't you tell us before?"

"I... I couldn't, he said that he would kill me if I told you anything about that." He replied, defensively, trying more to reassure him that it wasn't his fault than saying them that it wasn't him who killed her. "I discovered one day, as we were strolling in the streets..."

Flash Back in 1998:

"It's a wonderful night..." Kathleen said to Joshua, as they were slowly walking in the street. It was a snowy night and the empty streets were covered with snow.

"Yeah..." Joshua answered, keeping her more tight in his arms as it was freezy.

Then a man came to see them. They were a little bit surprised as they didn't see him coming. He had short brown hair and had a starting growing beard. He was breathless as if he had run very much. "Kathleen wait!" He said as she continued to walk, doing as if she hadn't seen him, when she realized who it was.

"What do you want?" She sighed, looking away. "I've already told you that I didn't want to see you again." She continued coldly.

"Who is it Kath?" Joshua asked, surprised by Kathleen's behavior.

"Nobody you know." She answered rapidly, not letting the other man responded.

"I'm her professor." The man replied, angrily. "Can we talk alone?" He said while looking at Joshua, wanting him to leave.

"I don't have anything to say to you!" She exclaimed while starting to walk, but the man grabbed her arm.

"I can't live without you..." He said desperately. "Please, give me an other chance!" He asked in the same tone.

"Let go of me!" she shouted, furious. And the man let her arm.

"But... please!" He tried once again, practically imploring her.

"No, and leave me alone!" She coldly answered. And she started walking away.

The man sighed as he saw her leaving, then he turned to look at Joshua. "Don't speak about it to anybody, or you'll see..." He menaced him and set off in the opposite way.

Back in 2005

"He didn't told me his name." Joshua sighed sadly.

Lilly and Scotty looked at each other, maybe they were close from finding the murderer. They leaved the room and walked towards Stillman's office.

"So, what did he tell you?" He asked as they entered.

"He said that it wasn't him who killed her." Lilly said while sitting on one of the chair.

"But maybe we'll find who this stalker was." Scotty completed, standing behind Lilly.

"Who was it?" Stillman asked, putting his glasses on.

"He told us that it was one of her professor." Lilly said, trying to forget that Scotty was just behind her. She didn't want her cheeks to blush once again.

"Okay, we'll search him tomorrow..." Stillman sighed, while looking outside. The sky was dark, and spangled with stars.

"Night boss." Lilly said as she left his office and rapidly leave the office.

Lilly entered in her house, this cold house where nobody was waiting for her. She took off her shoes and coat and fell on the couch. She was sure that Scotty will be very attentive with her, that she wouldn't feel alone anymore with him. But was it the right decision? Will she be hurt again?

All those questions were torturing her, she had spend the whole day thinking about that. 'After all, you love him and it's the only thing you should take into consideration.' She thought and find herself smiling.

Even if she had spend so much time building those wall, she knew that Scotty really worth it.
