JOsh POV

I get off the flight and take a taxi to Johns apartment. I text him and tell him I am 10 minutes away. He meets me in the lobby of the building and lets me in. He is telling me she is supposed to go to the police stn and finish her report to charge him today but she won't eat and isn't talking. He slept with her to watch her. I thank him and hug him. So many people love Colleen. It amazes me and I am super thankful for each and everyone of them. I walk into the apartment and he points to the door she is in. I open it and see her back is towards the door. She is very quiet. I sit down in the chair facing her and start rubbing her cheek as she sleeps. John told me she hardly slept all night. As soon as my hand cups her face she jumps up thrashing. She is screaming and crying instantly. "Baby its me!" I say to her and to get her attention. She stops and looks at me. Makeup is everywhere. She is completely distraught. "Oh my god Josh. When did you get here? Why?" she says as she hugs me so tight and I hug her back. "John phoned me and told me what happened babe. I was worried of course so I flew out here" I say. "Joshhhhhhhhh" she says sobbing. "i tried to get him off of me Josh but he was too strong" she says. "I am here now babe. You are in my arms" I say."Did he hurt you? Did he touch anywhere he shouldn't have Colleen?" I ask. She nods. "Baby!" I hug her. "Did he do anything more than touch?" I ask. No she says. "he riped off my shirt" she says and shows her cuts all over her chest and starts crying again. "He told me he was a fan of mine" she says."What? he talked to you?" I ask holding her shoulders. "yes he told me that in the elevator before he attacked me" she says.

Colleen POV

Thank god Josh is here. I feel a million times better. It is 8am and I text my work and tell them what happened and that I won't be in today. Then I decide to shower so we can go to the police station. Josh helps me and waits for me to finish up. I get dressed and we go. Him, John and myself walk to the police station and sit down with the detective. They have a huge folder on this guy and open it up to show pictures of what this guy had on me. He had pictures of me all over his apartment. He was obsessed with me. Josh looked at the pictures of his apartment and went pale. I closed my eyes. I felt sick. He has been watching me for years and probably knew my where abouts from Twitter. Josh is rubbing my back and keeps looking at me. I grab his hand and he rubs my hand with his. The police gets me to make a statement and Josh is now closing his eyes as I replay what happened. He has tears in his eyes. John then gives his statement and we get told the police will get back to us when the court date is settled. He is in custody. I am safe for now. I want to go home.

"Josh I need to go home" I say. He says "yes you do, lets go babe" he says. I sit with John while Josh gets all my stuff packed up and we head to the airport. I sit in the back of the cab leaning on Josh. I am cold as ice as he tries to warm me up. I grab his hand and don't let go.
