His Worst Nightmare.
Chapter 10.
Although there had been no blood at the crime scene, Dexter had assisted
in gathering evidence. He was truly intrigued at Nicole Wallace's nerve. She
had gained entry to the Detectives rooms, drugged them and raped Goren.
She was truly a worthy opponent for him. He was going to have to get creative
in his attempts to find her, as she had not returned to her appartment or job.
She seemed to be following Goren though, and if he was going to get her then
he too would have to stick to Goren like glue,however much he hated that idea.
He had received both blood samples from Goren and Eames and was just
running a tox scan on the both of them to determine the separate doseages.
The fluids on the bed sheets matched the DNA of both Wallace and Goren, and
the swob samples from the rape kit confirmed that Goren had had sex with
her, albeit not consensually.
Whilst the tox scan was running Dexter decided to hack into the hotels
database. Checking on all recent bookings from single women.
"Bingo" one woman had checked into the hotel the night before, under the
name of Nicole Haynes.
" Just what is your game lady?" all these names she used could easily be
traced to Wallace. It was as if she was flaunting herself at them.
" Well then, who am I to complain if you are getting careless… I can only
benefit from it."
Dexter turned to pull the printouts from the tox scan, he would give them to
his sister then return to the hotel and check out the room Wallace had booked.
Lieutenant La Guerta walked up to the hospital room and entered.
" Detectives, we have gotten the lab reports on the tox screen, Detective
Eames it shows that Detective Goren was given a dose that was twice as strong
as yours, which explains why you was able to recover faster. All tests on the
rape-kit confirm without a doubt that Nicole Wallace sexually abused
Detective Goren." She walked around to the other side of the bed so she could
see Goren's face.
"I'm sorry about what happened Detective, we would like to offer you
counselling, we have a great therapist who specializes in rape victims."
When she got no reply from Goren she looked at Eames, who just shrugged
" He hasn't spoken a word since I told him, in all honesty he hates counselling.
Give me some time and I will try and get him to talk to me."
With a nod La Guerta turned and left the room, leaving Goren and Eames
alone.
Alex stood then seated herself on the bed behind Bobby and gently placed her hand on his shoulder.
"Talk to me Bobby, don't close me out again. I'm your friend, please let me
help you this time, don't shut me out."
Alex sat there gently squeezing his shoulder, she felt a slight tremble go
through his body and realised that he had begun to cry. She scooted up behind
him and wrapped her arms around him and held him tight until the sobs
subsided and she felt his breathing even out. He had fallen to sleep.
She decided to lay here next to him, holding him tight, and it didn't take long
before she too drifted off into a troubled sleep.
He woke an hour later to find Alex laying sprawled on top of him, and he
dared not to move for fear of waking her. So he laid there and enjoyed her
body contact and her unique scent. Her facial expression was so cute, when
she slept, so relaxed and untroubled. He hadn't realised that his hand was
stroking along her arm. Her skin was so soft, in his brief distraction he failed
to notice that she had woken up.
"Hey". The sound of her voice made him involuntarily jump. " Oh sorry I
didn't mean to startle you." Alex looked into his eyes , praying to god that he
didn't close down on her again.
"Hey". He almost whispered back. " Thanks for staying with me and I
apologize that I shut you out, I just needed to think bout things."
Alex looked at him and smiled. " Thanks for letting me in, you had me worried
there for a while partner."
Bobby reached over with his free hand and brushed her bangs out of her face,
"I'm ok, when did the doc say I will be able to leave? We can't lay around here
all day long, we got a psycho to catch."
He looked into her eyes and smiled.
When Alex turned and got up, he immediately missed her body contact.
Alex walked over to the rooms cupboard and got out Gorens suit.
"Here I brought this with us for you to put on" she then hung the suit on a
hook in the ensuite bathroom.
Goren swung his legs over the side of the bed, all he was wearing was a
hospital gown that was a few sizes too small for his size, but then he always
had problems finding clothes that fit him properly. He felt a little exposed,
then remembered that it was Eames that had found him laying naked on his
bed. With a sigh he got up and walked to the bathroom and spent the next half
hour trying to erase all traces that Nicole Wallace may have left on his body.
After he got dressed he felt whole again. Though he had discovered, that
Miami was way too hot and humid for wearing dress suits and ties.
La Guerta had told them to take a few days off, and that they had been moved
to another hotel, and this time their rooms would be guarded day and night.
As they sat in their rented car, he turned to Alex. " How about we go and do a
bit of shopping? I need other clothes otherwise I'm going to evaporate."
Alex looked over at him as she inserted the keys in the ignition, "Sure, need a
few things myself."
They spent the next 2 hours shopping then drove over to their new hotel,
where they quickly showered and changed into the other clothes.
Alex had sat and waited on Goren to come out of his bathroom, she hadn't
seen what clothing he had bought and when he emerged she caught her
breath.
He was wearing a light blue t-shirt and camo-cargo pants and scandals.
"Wow, so you found size 13 shoes then?" Bobby looked at her an smiled.
"Yep, so what are our plans for today?
Alex looked up at him and grinned, how about we go for a walk and take a look
at Miami, find a nice little restaurant and eat some lunch. Then we can hit
the hotel pool. That sound good?"
Bobby broke into a smile and nodded, " sounds like a great plan, lets go."
