Very fast update? Yep. :) The next updates might not be so fast, but we'll see. I started this chapter out completely different, but it turned out just awful so I started over and wrote this. I personally think it's much better.
"Shawn, please can we just go on a regular date to a restaurant?" Juliet pleaded with her boyfriend as they neared the curb in front of their house, "We can't go to a movie every time, we'll run out of things to see. I was thinking we could do something romantic."
"Aw, sweetie, we could go see Iron Man 3 again! That movie was awesome." Shawn argued back.
"Shawn, I don't want to see it again. It's not as fun seeing it again when you already know what happens."
"I have to disagree, that way, when you are in the theater along with a bunch of people who haven't seen it before, you can scream the ending." he smirked.
"Shawn," she grabbed his hands in hers and smiled slightly, "please? For me?" She stuck her bottom lip out, the way she always did to get him to give in.
"Oh fine. But as long as the restaurant isn't too fancy. I'm not wearing the right clothes, not that I have the right clothes. I can't wear that kind of clothes, it like ruins my image."
"Well, I personally adore you in 'the right clothes'. Come on, we can go to Red Robin."
He smiled at her, "I adore you." he took her hands, which were still intertwined in his, and gave them a kiss, "Let's go."
Juliet pulled him towards her car, where they both got in and closed the doors. As soon as the engine was on, Shawn turned the radio station to his favorite 80's station. That, she wasn't going to argue about. She loved 80's music now, Shawn had changed her in many ways that she couldn't deny.
Take On Me came on the station and Shawn started rocking out, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Hey, what?"
"Nothing." she answered quickly and shook her head. "It's just that this song definitely brings back horrible memories."
"Horrible? What's wrong with it? The fact that Gus and I nailed that American Duos audition?"
"The exact opposite."
"Maybe if you sang with me, my voice wouldn't be so bad. And I'm hurt that you would say such a thing, Jules. You want to know something?"
"What?" Though slightly annoyed, she played along.
"I was faking during that audition. Gus, too. We can both sing like birds, well Gus is probably just a canary. You know what? Scratch that, we don't sound like birds."
She laughed, "Oh really? Prove it."
"Sing with me?"
"I can't sing."
"On the contrary, Jules. I know you can sing. I've heard your shower performances. They are quite lovely."
She sighed in defeat, she wasn't going to win this time. "Fine. What is this song?"
Shawn reached for the dial and turned up the radio and started singing in a high pitched voice, "I'm your Venus, I'm your fire!"
She turned the radio down and saw his face fall in her peripheral vision, "Shawn, it doesn't work if it's a girl singing." she pulled to a stop and faced him. "Well that was some car ride. Too bad I didn't get to hear your real voice."
"Oh, it won't be long until you do." he stepped out of the car and ran around the hood of the car to open her door, holding out his hand to help her out. "I'm starving."
"Yeah, me too." she said and their hands interlocked again as they headed toward the restaurant.
Something touched both their backs and a voice whispered, "Don't move, don't breath, or I shoot. Get in the car."
Juliet froze, completely still, on the other hand, Shawn turned around to see his captor, but didn't even get a glimpse of him when the butt of a gun connected with the back of his head.
"Shawn," she whispered to herself.
"Come on, Missy. Get in the car."
She did as told, going where the mysterious man pointed and got in. She watched as the same man went over to Shawn's unconscious body and struggled to get him up.
Juliet took action, grabbing her purse and digging inside to get her gun. She jumped out of the car, which wasn't locked, and aimed her gun at him. "Freeze! Drop him and your gun."
The man moved away from Shawn slowly, dropping his gun to the ground.
"Get on your knees." she ordered.
The man did so and Juliet started towards him, but didn't make it one step when someone else hit her over the head.
She blinked her eyes open and took in her surroundings. She saw Shawn next to her, bound to a metal chair like the ones they had back at the station. He was already conscious and staring at her with wide eyes, he had a gag in his mouth and a bandage on his arm. What was that from? The room they were both in was a bright shade of purple, small about the size of the file room. There was no windows, the only light in the room coming from a lamp mounted on one of the walls.
She looked down and realized she, too was bound to a metal chair, a gag in her mouth. Her head ached terribly, and her stomach growled which reminded her she and Shawn hadn't been able to have dinner.
The small door to the room burst open and a man came in, he was wearing all green, odd, and he had a wry smile plastered on his face.
He walked towards them and started talking, "Hello my friends, welcome to my game."
And now... you wait... muahahaha
