Author's note: PLEASE READ ALL OF EVERYTHING IN BOLD... PLEASE!

So within writing this story, I've began to become confused with my characters and how they relate to the characters in the other story, so I'm going to list them and their roles. Any characters with a star beside them are taken from the other story, simply because I felt they were pretty vital to the story, so here's the characters, but only the one's who have been mentioned so far, and ones that will be included in this chapter (note that if there isn't a star, they are completely new characters or I decided to rename them, and if you want, I'll even say who they originally are, just let me know in reviews) :

*Massie Block

*Aiden Block

*Adam Block

*Spencer Block

*Derrick Harrington - special FBI agent

*Noah Clayborne - special FBI agent

*Steve Brenner - Block family friend

Brad Stevens - England chief justice (including head of FBI field)

Paul Ganger - America chief justice (including head of FBI field)

Detective Wade - detective in charge (right behind Ganger)

*Joe Farley - special field agent

*Matthew Feinberg - electronic surveillance specialist

*Julius Wesson - section leader (of current investigation and under Wade)

Dr. Alvin Sanchez - Above ALL in the law enforcement feild

Sheriff Verne Lawson - Westchester sheriff

Dallon Lawson - sheriff's son

Okay, so I lied. Most of those won't be introduced in this chapter, but I already had them written down as important characters. I will keep this list with me every time I write so I don't only confuse you, but also so I don't confuse myself. Anyways, whenever I realize we have new characters that are as well important as all above, then I'll be sure to let you know. (such as Claire Lyons, Dylan Marvil; you get the picture...)

I also started another Merrington story, so if you don't mind, I'd like if you could check it out and review what you think (:

Also, if you've read Sweet Revenge (the original story of this one) then please tell me if there's a certain character that I forgot to fill, and if you're comfortable with it, I'll come up with an original name, as well.

Okay, enough rambling, and let's get to what you came here for!

I own absolutely nothing!


Two agonizing hours. Massie fought and bickered with Derrick Harrington and her brothers while Noah and Ganger sat and watched in amusement. It only took two hours for Massie to know what needed to happen to catch the unsub, and everyone was against her. Especially Derrick.

She so far hated him. He was arrogant, stubborn, and he wouldn't stop staring at her. After they were introduced, he didn't acknowledge the fact that he had seen her before. Sure, it was only photos that Spencer showed of her when she was younger, but she was annoyed with the fact that he kept ogling her. It was disgusting.

It was hard to get mad without being hypocritical. She kept stealing glances at him as well. But she hadn't ever seen her before. Spencer did say things about him, but he never showed her any pictures. She didn't know he was so... handsome. Or sexy. Damn, she needed to get a hold of herself. He's a rude, big-headed, idiotic, overrated, stupid man, and she doesn't like him. She doesn't, especially since he was Spencer's best friend. No way.


Dr. Alvin Sanchez made his way through the police station ready to meet the victim. When his golden boy, Derrick Harrington called and volunteered for the job of protecting her, he couldn't wait to see why Derrick offered so quickly. He had gotten news of the investigation but thought Derrick would be one to want to stay out of it, considering he hated waiting for action, and Sanchez knew that this 'crime scene' would take a long time, possibly weeks. But nonetheless, Spencer Block was Derrick's best friend, and he would do anything for him.

Sanchez found the room he was looking for. Inside sat Massie Block across from detective Paul Ganger, who were both surrounded by men, three being Massie's brothers and the other two were special FBI agents Noah and Derrick.

"What have we got here?" Sanchez asked while entering the room. Massie stood up immediately. She knew Derrick's employer was on his way, and she had a bit of a bone to pick with him.

"Dr. Sanchez -"

"Call me Alvin, please Massie," he replied, shaking her hand. He gave her a good look and then over to Derrick, giving him an amused grin. She was a sight and knew that Derrick was clearly taken by her. His employee obviously couldn't keep his eyes off the young woman.

"Yes, of course Alvin. I'd like to speak to you in private, please."

"And what for?" he asked letting go of her hand and looking at the concerned faces around the room.

"Massie's lost her mind, that's what for," Aiden said, pacing the room with his hands rubbing his chin, showing he was stressed out.

"Alvin, just a moment in another room, please?" Massie said walking out of the room, but Derrick followed her. Alvin looked back around the room and let everyone know it would only be a minute.

"Sanchez, just a minute? Massie, wait for him in that room," Derrick said, motioning to and empty room.

"Mr. Harrington. I wish to speak with Alvin -"

"In there. Now."

Massie gave Derrick a hard glare before entering the room, still watching the two men discuss something outside. After a minute, Alvin walked in. But Derrick followed.

"Please. Sit, Miss Block," Alvin told her. She did as she was told and he sat in front of her while Derrick closed the door and leaned against it crossing his arms across his chest.

"Do you need to talk to Alvin?" Massie asked him. He simply shook his head. She gave him another glare which only made him smirk, clearly amused.

"What is it you need to talk about?" Alvin asked.

"Mr. Ganger and Mr. Stevens, the one back in England, both suggest that I should go to Westchester, I'm sure they've told you."

"Yes, they've discussed the plan with me. You go to Westchester, grab the things you need and go back to your vacation home in England," Alvin repeated the plan to her.

"That's what I wanted to talk to you about."

"You're not doing it," Derrick said.

"It's my decision is it not?"

"No. It isn't," he told her in a harsh tone.

"I'm having a hard time following," Alvin said while listening to the two bicker.

"Alvin, I've come up with my own plan," she told him in a confident tone.

"It's an absurd one, and no one will let you go through with it," Derrick said.

"Noah thinks it's a wonderful plan."

"Noah doesn't have a say in this."

"I want to go to Westchester, Alvin," she said with hopeful eyes.

"Well, yes, we all want you to go to Westchester, then you'll -"

"And I'm going to stay there."

Alvin's eyes widened when she drew out the word 'stay'.

"See? I told you it's a stupid plan. She's only putting herself in more danger, which is why her brothers and I aren't letting her do it," Derrick said at Alvin's reaction.

"Here me out, Mr. Sanchez," she said, getting formal with his name again. He nodded and leaned his elbows on the table, giving her his full attention, only because he was frankly curious why she had such a courageous plan in her mind. "If I hide, the unsub will too. If he can't find me, then you won't be able to catch him. He'll hide, too. But if I go back to Westchester, and act like my life is normal, as if nothing happened, then it will lure him to me and you guys can nail him."

Alvin raised his brows, showing he was impressed.

"If I use myself as bait, there's no way you guys can't stop him. We just have to outsmart him."

"Well, Mass. You've got me. I would have never thought of such a plan, and it's very dangerous, but I'm willing to go through with it if you're absolutely positive you can."

"I can, sir. I know I can do this."

"No you can't," Derrick piped in. "I'm not letting you go through with this. No way in hell." He was now standing right beside her, his arms still crossed.

She looked up at him, sincerity in her eyes. Damn, he thought. Those eyes were beautiful.

"Mr. Harrington -"

"Derrick. Call me Derrick." That was probably the hundredth time he told her to do that.

"Derrick," she said. He uncrossed his arms and shoved them in his pockets. Holy crap, the way she said his name. It sounded like an angel. Shut the hell up, man! He wasn't supposed to crush on the captive, for God's sake she was his best friend's kid sister! "I really want to do this. I know you'll protect me. I know I'd rather have Noah do it," she said in a sarcastic tone which made him roll his eyes. "But I know you will keep me safe."

Wow. She must really trust him, he thought.

"Massie, I still don't think you should go through with this plan. It's far too risky," he said placing a hand on her shoulder. She flinched at his touch.

Alvin leaned back in his chair and smiled. He knew it didn't take a trained eye to see the sparks between the two.

"Derrick, I know what I'm doing. I know you'll get him."

"Massie, no one knows if I'll get him."

"But I do! Can't you understand that even though you're an idiot, that I know you're smart enough to -"

"Isn't she unbelievable?" Derrick shouted throwing his arms up in frustration. "She's been like this since I got here! If there's anyone who's the idiot, it's definitely her."

Massie jolted up. "You're the one whose completely despicable! You're the most appalling person I've ever met. I couldn't think of a worse person to take care of me. You're far too arrogant and a huge distraction."

Derrick gave her a lopsided grin. "How am I a distraction, Miss Block?"

She turned back to Alvin. "Can't you please assign someone less gruesome to go with me?"

Alvin looked at Derick who gave him a glare that told Alvin not to tell Massie the truth. "I'm sorry but no one else is available. Noah's already on duty to act as Aiden's body-guard, and Derrick is the only guy we've got left."

Massie huffed and sat back down.

"And with me as your 'body guard', I'm not letting you stay in Westchester," Derrick said hovering over her. "Tell her, Al."

"Now, I do think that it is the easiest way to catch the guy, but we are all only worried about your safety, dear. I'm going to have to agree with Derrick."

"Dr. Sanchez, do you agree that in order to catch the unsub, we have to use the highest possible way?"

"Yes, of course, but -"

"And do you not agree that using myself as bait will be the likeliest way?"

"I suppose, but -"

"And so you agree that if I go to Westchester and pretend nothing's wrong, we can lure him towards me?"

"Yes, but -"

"And that once he's lured we can nail him and by we I mean your men?"

"Massie -"

"Then there you have it. My plan is the likeliest way of getting this guy, and you know it."

Alvin had nothing to say. He wanted to blurt out how impressed he was with Massie's detective-like work, but he kept his mouth shut feeling Derrick's eyes narrowed on him.

"See, that's what she does. She gets into your head," Derrick said. "She's crazy and she'll drive you crazy."

Massie gasped. "Never call me crazy again! You know that even Alvin won't go against me, and it's driving you crazy. Can't you accept the fact that I'm smarter than you?" she said standing up and heading for the door. Derrick grabbed her elbow to stop her.

"Massie, I'm only thinking about your safety. And your brothers, don't you think they're too much of a wreck already for you to go and worry them even more? Please understand that I'm going to do whatever it takes to keep you safe. Nothing is going to stop me."

"Good. Then you'll respect my decision in going home."

"Massie -"

"No, Derrick. I'm doing it for those women. I can't live knowing that it's my fault they're all dead." She was in tears by now. "It's my fault and I can't live with that, and I know you'll keep me safe and I know that there is absolutely nothing you can do or say that would change my mind."

He wanted to pull her into his arms, and keep her close and whisper that she was going to be alright and soothe her with soothing words, but he wasn't quite sure how she would react to that, so he kept back.

"Please let me do what I know is the right thing. I know you won't let anything hurt me."

"I won't," he promised looking into her eyes. He wanted to hold her hand, but kept his at her elbow.

She turned to walk out as he let go of her, but turned around.

"And by the way, you're an ugly distraction." And she left the room hearing Alvin laugh behind her and Derrick telling him to stop.


Glad that's done! HA. I used a lot of the quotes from the other story in this one, so if you've read it, then it may look familiar.

Hm. Does this chapter seem long enough to you guys? It seems so short to me... But that may only be me. Tell me what you guys think/. Was it too short?

Like I said, if there's any characters that you think I need to add or that you want to know who they're based off of (from the other story) then I'm more than happy to answer your questions. Thanks again for all your amazing reviews. They make me smile (:

Oh, yeah. One more thing: REVIEW!
