amazing trailer by TheGirllyGirl

external link is the trailer, couldn't get it on the chapter for some reason

I sat there playing with my still cuffed hands waiting for the detective. Just don't say anything. Absolutely nothing. As I sat there, a sudden realization hit me. Sebastian was going to be so mad. He doesn't know where I'm at. Oh God, he's going to kill me if he finds out they know about me. He told me to be careful. God! I always screw up everything.

"Hello, I'm Detective Robles." said the man I saw just a few minutes ago. He walked in and took the seat in front of me. I didn't say anything. I just stared. What was I supposed to say? He already knew who I was. I mean, why else would I be in here for? Plus, his face was really distracting. I thought detectives were older like in their 40s. How old was this guy anyway? He couldn't be that much older than Sebastian. I looked from his perfect hair to his eyes to his lips. Wow, this guy was really attractive.

"Are you done checking me out?" Detective Sexy asked. Oh my God, how embarrassing.

"I wasn't checking you out! I'm bored... I was counting the little hairs on your chin. You need a shave," I defended. Detective Sexy chuckled. God, he looked so perfect, he sounded perfect. Nicole! You have a boyfriend. A very good-looking man that would be pissed off if he knew what I thought about this Detective Robles.

"So, you put up a fight, I see," he said pointing at my muddy dress, suppressing a laugh.

"Why would I let them arrest me? I did nothing wrong. I was just having fun, dancing, drinking... you know, doing what normal people do."

"You didn't do anything wrong?" He glared.

"No," I said shrinking into my chair. Detective Robles pulled out a folder and opened it. He took out a picture of Sebastian. The picture was old, maybe from like 3 years ago.

"Who is this?"

"I don't know, I don't keep up with current events." I shrugged. He took another picture out, got up, stood behind me and put the picture in front of me. I didn't look at the picture because Detective Sexy was leaning over me and his face was really close to mine. I couldn't concentrate. I felt like a hormonal teen. He smelt really good though.

"Then explain this." I looked at the picture. At that moment, I felt like my heart shattered into a billion pieces. It was a picture from four years ago. It was the first and only time Sebastian took me on a date. In the picture we were riding the merry-go-round. I was laughing enjoying Sebastian's presence. Even in the picture you could tell he had his guard up.

Right there, I forgot about Detective Robles' presence and cried. I cried for Sebastian. I cried because I loved him more than he loved me. I cried because I needed him. I cried because besides him I had no one. I felt so weak and useless.

Detective Robles P.O.V

"Then explain this," I said pointing at the picture. She stared at the picture. I walked around the table and stood across from her. How could someone like that monster have a girl like this? Unbelievable. I was about to tell her to speak but I saw a tear stream down her cheek. Then she started to cry. What the hell did I do?

"Ummh.." I wasn't sure what to do. I walked over to her and patted her on her head. No, that's wrong, I think I'm supposed to rub her back. I had never comforted a crying woman before. I stood there awkwardly rubbing her back until her cries became small hiccups. It was actually kind of cute. I went back to sit across from her.

"I guess that explains it." She looked at me with those big eyes. During my whole career I have never felt more uncomfortable. It felt like she was scrutinizing my every move. I couldn't concentrate and do my job. Her whole being was a distraction.

"What do you want from me?" She finally spoke. What did I want? I wanted Sebastian locked up. But, having this beauty in front of me, I could think of one thing I really wanted at the moment.. And it had nothing to do with that criminal. I looked at Nicole and gave her a stern look.

"You know what I want. He can't be out in the streets like that. He's a criminal."

"I don't know what you're talking about. Are you even sure you got the right girl detective?" She questioned me leaning in closer and squinting her eyes. It was hard trying not to laugh.

"This isn't you in the picture?"

"It could be any girl. I'm not the only one with pale skin and dark hair."

"Then why did you cry when you saw it?"

"I'm an emotional person. It's a beautiful picture, I had to cry." I stared into her eyes. So, beautiful. I have to help her. Someone like her can't live with someone like that. He destroys and corrupts everything he touches. I won't let him hurt her. I took a deep breath.

"Fine, you won't talk to me right now. We'll talk on your time," I pulled out my card and placed it in front of her. "Whenever you're ready." I got up and left the room. I closed the door behind me. I'll never forget those eyes.

"You can let her go," I told the officer. As I drove home I kept thinking about her. I couldn't get her off my mind.

That night was the first time I didn't dream about the monsters I chased. I dreamt about Nicole's eyes. Those beautiful eyes.
