Chapter 11: Turner's Escape
Sam woke up to see Phil staring at her and fondling her shiny blonde hair.
"Morning gorgeous." Phil grinned.
"How long have you been up?"
"Not long, about ten minutes." Phil said getting up and walking over to the door. "I'll go down and make us some toast."
"Okay." Sam smiled at Phil.
Phil walked out of the room and leapt over the banister onto the stairs.
"Bloody hell Phil! Be careful. I've just got out of hospital and we don't need you going back into one.
Phil laughed and continued down the stairs. He walked into the kitchen and shoved some toast in the toaster. He turned on the radio to FOX FM. 'Smile' by Lily Allen was playing. The song finished and the presenter said something about an escaped rapist on the loose. Phil turned the radio up.
"…a rapist broke out of The John Radcliffe hospital this morning. He was being watched by a twenty-three year old guard who went to get a coffee. During his absence the suspect, Stuart Turner, ran from his cubicle and escaped out the fire escape. Sun Hill police are currently searching the area."
Sam came downstairs to find the toast burning and Phil sat on the worktop, white as a sheet.
"Phil?"
"He's escaped Sam. Stuart fucking Turner has escaped!"
"Shit!" Sam looked worriedly at Phil. "For the love of god, promise you won't leave me. We both know that I'm the first person he'll come looking for."
"I won't Sam, not in the entire world."
Sam gave him a weak smile. "Thank you."
Phil opened his arms and hugged Sam tightly.
"Its gonna be okay Sam. Its gonna be okay."
