Chapter 5

Liz lay back in the seat and closed her eyes. The pain was dimming and she was grateful for that. She knew that in order for her to escape she had to get better and not be in pain, as much as Red claimed to love her, and Liz did have to admit she has feelings for him, but she couldn't live in this type of life style.

Red came back smiling and sat down on the head of the couch and pulled Liz into his lap and started to stroke her shorter hair and kissed her head "We will be landing real soon sweetheart."

Liz only stared into his blue-green eyes and nodded "Red where are we heading you known there is no way of me communication back to the team."

Red only gave a deep chuckle "Oh sweetheart I know that you are capable of doing so, you will see soon enough where we are heading...you'll just love it."

Liz closed her eyes and tried to sleep but all she could think about was the pain up and down her arm and fingers. She saw flashes of Berlin tying her down and cutting off her finger and trying to chop her up piece by piece and her screaming out for help...all Berlin did was smile and saying she brought this on by being with Red. Liz tried to tell him that Red would never do such a thing.

She was shaken out of her thoughts by Red saying "Sweetheart wake up it's just a dream...shh come back to me Lizzie."

Liz eyes flew open and saw Red kissing her head and helping her up and sitting her in his lap and saying "Your safe now Lizzie, no one is ever going to hurt you again as long as we both shaw live."

Liz nodded and tried to get up "Red I need a moment please."

Red slowly released Liz and nodded "Of course sweetheart but please come back, we will be landing in just a minute."

Liz walked slowly to the bathroom and sat down on the floor and pulled her knees up to her chest and breathed slowly and deeply and tried to shut out her thoughts as she was taught when she was younger and was rescued from the fire; and then adopted by Sam, he was the one to teach her this trick.

Liz slowly stood up and looked in the mirror; she didn't even recognize herself sort of. She was still the same person; she just has had her eyes open since she started to work for the F.B.I. and for Red. Her hair was shorter and her eyes seemed more blue to her, Liz took a deep breath and said "OK Liz calm down, Red is not going to hurt you, you matter to much to him...he's just doing what her considers best for you. I have no idea where I'm going or if I'll ever see my old life again...but Red will never hurt me he loves me."

Liz must have been in there to long because Red knocked at the door and said "Lizzie sweetheart are you alright, you've been in there to long...do you need help?"

Liz sighed, he was being to over protective, but she guessed he will be this way till he felt she was safe. Liz answered "Red I'm fine, just give me a moment. Please I'm fine and safe."

Red said in his deep raspy voice "Alright Lizzie but were about to land."

Liz quickly splashed water on her face and ran her fingers through her hair; she was not use to it being this short. She had to admit that she like it this way but she would have liked to have her opinion into it.

Liz decided that she may as well get out; she didn't want to stumble around when the plane landed. Red was waiting and held out his hand for her take "Lizzie you didn't need to freshen up, you look so lovely right now. You should dress more often like this."

Liz blushed and let Red pull her into his lap. She had to admit she did feel safe close to him right now. The plane shook as it was landing, so she held onto Red, which he seemed to like the thought of her holding onto him.

Red helped her up and held out his hand and said "Shall we my dear?"

"Now are you going to tell me where we are?" said Liz still in the dark to where they were.

Red chuckled and just waited for the doors to open, the pilot opened the plane and Dembe had all of the bags in his hands.

Liz looked around and could tell that they were somewhere that had beaches and was really sunny. Red smiled and said "I think being in the sun will help you Lizzie, this will give you time to relax and we can get to know each other more."

Liz saw that they were at a lone airport because there were not that many people or planes around where they were. Liz said "Red what part are we in?"

Red smiled and kissed her "Welcome to the Bahamas Lizzie."
