The Blind date •ON HOLD•

(Jacob)

I walked in to the diner after the arguement with cara.
My jaw drops.
I see a guy talking to shannon.
She looks upset.
The guy looks back and a wave of anger washs over me.
Shannon jumps up and she runs in to a table.
He grabs her and drags her to the back door.

I run after them.
"EZRA!" I yell.
He looks back and sneers.
"DON'T TOUCH HER!" I push myself to run faster.
"STOP LET ME GO" she yells.
"EZRA LET HER GO" i run up.
He pulls her to his chest.
"Ezra let her go" i said.
"Why so you can tell the police again?" He sneered.

"Let me go your not jacob" she said struggling to make him let her go.
"It is me" he whispers.
"Shannon don't fight him" i said cautiously.
"Ah so you remember what happened to the other girls. She's going to be one of them" he said.

"Don't do this ezra let her go" i said taking a step closer.
"You abandoned me you called the cops" he said angrily.
"You killed innocent girls!" I yell.
"I did and i'm going to do the same to her. What did you call me? A rapist? Murderer? I know for a fact your a monster for letting the girls die" he spit out.

"Let her go ezra it's me you want don't hurt her" i pleaded.
"I wanted to hurt you so bad. I realized physically wasn't enough. For a second i thought the blonde was the one you care for until i saw you with this one" he said.

"Let me go" she pleads.
"Now mentally that seems like a good way. What better way to do that then kill the one he cares for" he said.
I take another step and he takes one back.

"Ezra don't do this" i said.
"Don't do what?" He asked.
"Don't hurt her like the others" i whisper.
"You let me harm them. They called for help asking for help from you and you don't move you let me kill them" he sneered.
"JESUS GIVE HER TO ME!" I yell angrily.

Ezra loosens his grip and shannon knees him in the crotch.
He doubles over and she makes a run.
She races to the forest.
I do the dumbest thing.
I run after her.
"SHANNON" i call for her.
I catch up to her easily.

I grab her waist and make her stop running.
"NOOO" she yells.
I push her against a tree.
She shakes her head her eyes squeezed closed.
"Shannon it's me it's jacob" i hiss in to her ear.

She opens her eyes.
Not going to do much good.
"How do i know?" She said softly.
I grab her wrists and pulled them up to my face.
"You'll know" i whisper.
I let her wrists go and her hands rest on my face.

She drags her fingers over my jaw my nose my eyes until they reach my lips.
"Jacob.." she says softly.
I had a urge to kiss the blind girl in front of me.

SNAP OUT OF IT BOY!
"Did he hurt you?" I ask.
She shakes her head.
I scoop her up.
"Jacob where are you taking me?" She asks.
"You'll see" i say softly as i carry her to the sheriff's office.
~~

When i walk in jack runs up.
"Jacob i'm sorry we need you" he said while giving me a worried look.
Wow. He hates me then wants me when he needs me.
"My brother's in town" i said.
Jack scowls.

"When did you see him?" He asks.
"Not even twenty minutes why?" I ask.
"The killer isn't him then. We found another body." Jack said.
I felt shannon go rigid in my arms.

"Cara's fine she's not the one hurt" he said.
I nod.
"Follow me" he motions for me to follow.
I oblige and i carry shannon in to a room.
I see the body.
"Maria slinger twenty six killed the same way" jack said.

I felt shannon's hands go up my chest and wrap around my neck.
She buried her head in to the crook of my neck.
"You knew her?" I ask.
She lets out a quick sob.
"Why are they targeting them!" She whispers.

Someone wanted to show a message.
A message,
"Jack where's the pictures of them all?" I ask.
He goes and gets the file.
I gently put shannon down but she still grips my shirt.

Jack hands me the file.
"You looked these over at least fifty times what are you planning on seeing?" Jack asked.
I pull all the photoes out and set them on a table.
"Oh god.." jack murmers.
i step away.
On all the girls backs were a letter.
Only if you didn't put them together you would bever know.
The letters were.
S.H.A.N.N.O.N.

"Shannon what did you do to this man?" Jack asks.
"She didn't do anything... he's infaturated with her" i whisper.
I knew what the guy wanted.
He wrote a message on the girls backs.
I knew there was a reason for it all.

"Who's next?" Jack asked.
I scowled.
"Someone close to shannon" i said softly.
