Domestic ~ A Chicago PD story

Chapter 6 - "Is there something in my drink?"

"We've got nothing to charge him on Kev!" Hailey said
"Are the marks on Cara not enough for you?!" Kevin yelled
"We don't know if he did that to her! She could be telling the truth!" Hailey yelled
"I know domestic violence when I see it! Do you not think I've seen enough calls of a husband beating his wife to death?!" Kevin screams
"Hey! Watch it!" Adam yelled
Kevin then sighed before walking out, Adam ran after him
"Look I get it!" Adam said
"What do you get Ruz?!" Kevin said as he stopped
"This whole thing with Cara is hitting you hard! But you can't take it out on us! Especially Hailey!" Adam explained
"The person who got me through some stuff is now going through things and I can't help her!" Kevin said
"I know, we're going to get him" Adam explained
Meanwhile Cara is clearing up dinner when Scott walks in with 2 drinks in his hands
"What's this?" Cara asked
"I thought we could have a drink and watch the sunset? Like old times?" Scott asked as he smiled
"Yeah I'd like that" Cara said as she took the drink from him
This was what they did after a long fight in France. They would pull out some deck chairs and watch the sunset. They walked out to their back yard and Cara rested her head on Scott's shoulder
"Go one drink it" Scott hinted
Cara then took a sip of her drink and looked up at Scott
"This is great babe" Cara muttered
"Good now drink it all up" Scott said before resting back into his chair
After about an hour Cara's drink was gone
*Cara's POV*
I then started to feel woozy, I tried to get up but nothing worked. God I could remember nothing, apart from my name and Scott. I knew that I loved him. Scott the kneeled down in front of me
"You know I love you right?" Scott asked as he smiled
"Of course honey!" I said, not registering what I had said
"Then marry me! Right here! Right now!" Scott said happily
"What?!" I asked, trying my hardest to sober up
"I have a friend who can marry us right now! Come on Cara! You know I'm only doing this for you!" Scott said as I smiled warmly
"Of course I'll marry you!" I said, groggily
Whatever was in that drink made me feel on cloud nine, I loved everything around me. I couldn't think straight but god I didn't care. An hour later Scott's friend came over and sat down with us.
"Should I do the whole speech or should I just get straight to it?" He asked as I twirled Scott's hair
"Just get straight to it" Scott replied as I giggled
"You have funny hair" I giggled
Whatever Scott put in that drink was hitting me even more now. But after a few minutes there was a ring on my finger and I was Mrs. Patterson
"We're married!" Scott said enthusiastically
"Your cheeks are squishy!" I said touching his cheeks
"Let's get you to bed" Scott said smiling
I woke up in the morning with a pounding headache, Scott woke up next to me and wrapped his arm around my waist. I then looked at the diamond ring on my finger
"What's this?" I asked
"You don't remember? You practically begged me to marry you last night. So I drove us down and your now officially Mrs Patterson." Scott explained
"So you?" Cara asked
"Everything's in my name, I have control over you and your life. So don't even think about screwing me over" Scott said as I felt his grip tighten
"Got it" I yelled
"Now! Go make me some breakfast" Scott ordered as I climbed out of bed
When I got down the stairs I started to cut up some strawberries, I picked up the knife before looking at my already cut leg. What's one more slash? What's it going to do? I placed the knife on my leg and cut it even more. Clearly I was just a piece of meat, why didn't I treat myself like it? I started to sob before I heard Scott coming and as usual I cleaned myself up. I couldn't show him how afraid I was, I just couldn't
