XII: Explode

-Dan-

After Y/N left, Phil came down with a slight cold. So I had to take care of him against my will. God he was so whiny when he was sick.

"Dan!" I heard Phil groggily yell as I sighed and angrily closed my laptop. Going towards the bundle of blankets in the lounge that was phil.

"What could you possibly want?" I roll my eyes as he flinches at my tone in my voice.

"Could you grab the cough medicine?" He smiles and curls up in the blankets more and more. Obviously cold.

As I grab the cough medicine off of the table, I throw it back at him and head back to my room.

While I opened it, I instantly was met with hours and hours of footage from the past which I've kept. I've been going through it all day in search of Y/N in any frames.

As I went through hour 506 at an unnatural speed of zooming through, I sighed and curled up in my blanket, watching the same four cameras over and over again.

I saw a familiar figure and saw Y/N in the doorframe of her own flat. Y/B/N on the other side of the hallway with a bunch of items in his hands.

I only assumed that Y/N was kicking him out for the moments being. Only for him to come crawling back to her and sweeping her off her feet again, only to become his punching bag once again.

I had a folder full of all the videos from the security cameras, I loved going through them. As if it were my job to look after these people through myself and my laptop. It was a sense of security knowing I've seen what people do and I know how all their daily lives go about.

When she looked towards the camera, I knew she saw it there. She knew. Her only way of telling the abuse was through the many frames that it shows Y/B/N hitting her.

This would be my mission. To set my girlfriend free from him.

As I went through hours of footage, I've gotten small clips that I've saved for her to take him to court. To press charges on him.

I grabbed the folder of footage I put together and threw it onto an extra memory stick I have laying around. While the files load up, I try to find a way to tell her without it seeming extremely creepy.

I just don't know how yet.

When my computer beeps, I see it needs to be plugged in. While I plug it in, I push my self off of my bed and towards my wardrobe to get dressed for my excursion out into the rainy London.

When I step out onto the pavement. I pull my jacket closer to me and put my gloves on. I was heading to the store to pick up a few days worth of food since phil and I were going to be inside a majority of the time due to his sickness.

I'm planning on picking up some stuff so I can make some butter chicken and something else. But I was seriously craving butter chicken.

As I walked down the pavement, I didn't notice how dark it was. It was around 7 in the evening and I knew the store was open until 11.

While I continued my way down the road sirens from police cars rang in the distance, honking very close as I looked for the source of the noise.

It seemed to be dragging on forever until it grew louder and louder near probably the busiest corner in my part of London. I walked slightly faster as the car honking constantly came into view.
