Chapter 4

Lindsay woke suddenly, pushing the blanket off her. As she calmed herself down and orientated herself she reminded herself that he wasn't here, he wasn't near her. She began to cry, wanting this to end. He would always be there, in her dreams and nightmares, in her thoughts. As her crying ceased, she looked down at the chocolate brown blanket on the floor. Danny must have tucked her in when she was asleep. Looking at the clock on the wall it read 5:30. He must have come home in his lunch. Suddenly Lindsay remembered Scarlett. She jumped up and grabbed her handbag, pulling out her cell. Ignoring the messages she dialled Danny's number.

"Lindsay?" he answered.

"Hi. Where's Scarlett? She should be home from school-" she started, he cut her off.

"Lind's, it's fine, I've got my mother to pick her up. If you want you could pick her up, or I've got Mom to drop her home at 7:00. You were asleep, I didn't know how long you would be out for." Lindsay smiled; she filled with warmth and love just hearing his voice.

"I may get her in a bit. I'm going to do some stuff. I love you." Danny paused; she could tell he was shocked. Usually she wouldn't have been talking to him at this point after last night's big fight, but after the night she had, she couldn't act normal. All she wanted was him to make her feel safe.

"I love you too Montana." She grinned, hanging up. She decided to cook dinner. Walking into the kitchen she opened the fridge, having a look around. At that moment she heard three knocks at the door and something being pushed through the letterbox. It was too late for that to be the postman. She walked to the door and swung it open, hoping to be able to see who posted it, but they had gone. Closing the door she picked up the lilac envelope. Lindsay was handwritten on the back. Her heart skipped a beat, was this Danny? Then as she pulled the letter out and scanned it quickly her heart stopped. Those words were down in writing, although they echoed in her head all the time, "say nothing or your daughter will get the same as you". As the fear shivered down her she remembered him on her, in her and gasped, dropping the letter. Falling to the floor she wept, her whole body shaking. This was too much and she hated it. He was everywhere she was, in her thoughts and now giving her letters. He knew where she lived, and he would never leave her alone, ever. Still crying, she thought, why me? Why carry on living this nightmare? Then she looked up and saw a family picture taken two Christmases ago of her, Danny and Scarlett. Two people that meant the world to her loved her, and nobody could come between that, at least she thought…

She calmed herself down, reaching forward and picking up the letter. Taking a deep breath she began to read it, telling herself to be strong and beat this.

Lindsay

I'm sure I'm in your thoughts; I made sure I wouldn't be forgotten easily. I sent this to refresh your memories, let you replay them again and again as I have. I will know if you tell anyone, and I mean anyone, including lover boy Danny. And remember, say nothing or your daughter will get the same as you, or perhaps worse. She's a pretty little thing, Scarlett is. I'm sure a good mother like you won't let a single hair on her head be harmed, will you?

I will write soon

P.S I am watching you…

Lindsay couldn't take it anymore and let herself cry until she was curled up into a ball, shaking, no more tears to be shred.
