A few weeks later its early in the morning still dark out when Tim feels like he is being shaken so he rolls over and sees Alyssa there
Tim:baby we can't keep doing this sweetheart
Alyssa:can i sleep in here with you and mama
Tim gets up out of bed and grabs her hand and they go back in her room
Tim:come on lets lay down
He lays with her and she drifts off to sleep he intends to go back to his and Lucys room but ends up also falling asleep the next morning him and Lucy are in the kitchen both kids asleep still
Lucy:so another night of bad dreams
Tim:I don't understand what is causing these dreams for her
Lucy:I don't know but i hope we can figure out what it is soon

Tim:hey Alyssa can you come sit down a minute please
Alyssa:ok.
Tim:we need to talk about these nightmares lately
Alyssa:I don't want to talk about it
Tim:i know but we can't keep letting it happen either and i think its best if you talk to someone
That why i made you an appointment with a therapist
Alyssa:i don't need a therapist im fine
Tim:baby its ok to have a hard time here and there but if you don't get ahead of it its gonna come back even worse
Alyssa:you will be there
Tim:if you want me there yeah absolutely
Alyssa:ok ill try it
Tim:ok theres one more thing i wanted to talk about
Alyssa:ok
Tim:you have these nightmares about your bio mom baby did she ever hurt you or your brother
Alyssa:sometimes
Tim:im sorry about that would you tell me how she hurt you baby
Alyssa:it was more me then Dylan i guess it was because he did whatever she said to but i knew what she was asking was wrong so i told her no she would get angry hit me across the face then she would hold ice on it so it wasn't noticeable when you came and picked us up
Tim:im so sorry sweetie your safe now ok
Alyssa:ok thank you daddy
Tim:always baby what do you say we go and get you a ice cream from that shop you like
Alyssa:yes please
They go to the ice cream shop and leave
Tim:where to now
Alyssa:hmm
Just as they are about to leave a guy pulled a gun
And starts yelling
G:everyone this is a robbery everyone sit down and don't move you do as i say and no one gets hurt
Alyssa:daddy
Tim:its ok just do what i tell you ok
Alyssa:ok
They are both sitting
G:im coming around i want everyone to put there phones in the bin
Tim:slide your phone to me baby don't let him see it
She does what Tim asked and he hides the phone in his waist band on his back and puts his shirt over it
G:phones
Tim puts his in
G:hers to
Tim:shes 11 she doesn't have one
The guy believes him and moves on he waits for the guy to be distracted
Tim:is Lucys number in your phone
Alyssa:its under mama
Tim pulls out the phone and texts Lucy 911 and their location
G:hey give me that
Tim locks it before he can see the text
G:don't try to be a hero stand up
Tim does as he says and the guy grabs him and puts the gun on him
Alyssa:daddy
Tim:its ok baby just sit down ok
Alyssa does as he says and the lady next to them pulls her closer seeing how scared she is
L:i got you sweetheart
Tim:look you don't want to do this im a cop

G:that your daughter sargeant Bradford
Tim:it is
G:well if i were you i would do whatever i tell you i would hate for her to see daddy get shot

The cops end up swarming the place
The guy has Tim sat in a chair in the middle of the room so he can see him better knowing he's a cop now
G:damn it the guys grabs Alyssa
Tim:no

The cops tries to come in but he fires 2 shots out the door
