Broken

Chapter 34

Sammie pov...

Chris was on the phone with Mike and his people, from what i could hear he was coming over right away. I had taken a shower and was now sitting in a hoodie from Chris and some yoga pants on the bed. I was feeling numb. It was like it has not fully sunk in yet... I should have been dead... She was willing to kill me... It was so much worse than either one of us thought... I was so scared... Scared for Sophie... Scared that Kim would do something to her... My little innocent girl... The thought alone was killing me... I dont know what i will do if she gets anywhere near her... Over my dead body... And that was a possibility... She had tried once before so who knew what she would do in the future... My mind was spinning but no words came out... But what do you say when you find out someone tried to have you killed... Would she try it again? 

After Chris had heard the conversation between me and Kim that i had taped, he called Mike...He had been on the phone nonstop. I feel the urge to be close to my little girl... To hold her close and to never let her go and yet i wanted to stay close to Chris... I wanted to feel safe... But my mother instincts took over... "I am going to bring Sophie to bed." I whispered and Chris nodded still on the phone. I could see he was in a panic to... He was scared to... Most of the conversation he had on the phone did not register with me... I was lost in my own thoughts... I walked to the living room where Sophie had fallen asleep on the couch. I lifted her into my arms and walked her to her bedroom. 

I laid her down and crawled next to her holding her close, needing her close to me right now. I laid there for a while when Chris walked in. He laid on Sophie's other side wrapping his arms around us both, pulling us close. He kissed my head. "Dont worry baby i will do everything i can to protect you." I looked at him giving him a forced smile. "I am just scared..." I whispered. "What if she hurts Sophie." I said fighting my tears. "She won't come anywhere near her baby, i promise. Mike is coming over to arrange some things." I let out a deep sigh. "Okay" I mumble. Me and Chris got up and walked out of the room but not before i had set up the baby monitor. I knew she was too old for it and normally i would not put it up, but i wanted to be able to check on her especially now.

We walked to the living room and Chris pulled me into his lap. "There are a few things we have to discuss before Mike gets here." He said taking a deep breath.... "Maybe you should go with Sophie to ma tomorrow." I shook my head. "No! Chris that is not happening that is what she wants and i want to have my say." I said. "Okay, just know it is an option. I wont force you to go... Second of all i am going to get my house better secured installing a new security system." I nodded and cuddled further into Chris. "Then there is the matter of personal security." He said. I looked at him shocked. "Do you really think that is necessary?" I whisper and Chris sighed. "I do baby, seeing as she hinted that your accident not being an accident. I know you dont like it, but we have to think about Sophie and when i am of to work next month i would like peace of mind knowing that you two are safe."

"Okay i can get on board with that." He was right i had to think about Sophie i wouldn't forgive myself is something would happen to her. Even if i did not like it at all... I like my privacy and freedom and i felt like it was being stripped away from me..."So there is one more thing we have to think about." I looked at him wondering what was coming. "We have to think about involving the cops." Chris said.

"The case is still open." I whispered. "They never found the guy. He fled the scene, and they assumed it was a drunk driver." Chris nodded. "The thing is if we involve the cop's chances are we can't keep it quiet." Chris explains...

"That would be bad for you won't it?" He cupped my face making me look at him. "I dont care baby, first of all the fact that she had your medical records is breaking the law, and if she really had set up the accident i want her in jail."
