The Complications Of Falling

Paralyzed

Mer's pov

It's been two weeks since I got the letter and that night of terror. I stopped talking to everybody. Every day I get a new threat. I don't telling anyone about it. The first letter told me if I did who ever caused the accident was going to kill me. The worst part is that I stopped talking to Alex. I had to protect them at all costs. Yesterday I got a new letter. It said.

"So since you have been a good bitch. I'm giving a day off. But if you tell anyone about or deal you dumb whore. They will watch you die in chains" signed your special lover. I ran straight to the bathroom. It start to puke. Even thinking about made me throw up more.

After I finished throwing up. I stuffed the letter in my pillow case with the other 14. One for everyday for two weeks. The stalker always signs it with signed your special lover. I head to the hospital. As I turned the hall I bumped into Jo.

"Woah sorry" she said.

"No it was my fault" I said lifelessly.

"Meredith are you okay"? She asked concerned.

"Not really" I muttered. Afraid the stalker had a spy.

"Do you want to talk about it"? She asks.

"Not here" I said as I grabbed her arm and pulled her into the nearest on-call room.

We get into the on-call room. When I pull out a note and hand it to her . She begins to read it.

As she reads it I could see tears in her eyes. She looked over to me.

"Oh my god! Does anybody know about this"? She asked shocked.

"Alex and Cristina only know about the front" I said miserably.

"Meredith you can't hide this stuff from people who love you. It's not healthy" She explained sympathically.

"That's not only thing that happened" I stated.

"Meredith" She exasperated.

I breath in and exhale before speaking again.

"That night, I was trying to sleep. When I heard someone in my room. I was terrified and your the first person I have told. That's why I have been so distant. I'm scared for my life. And since I told someone. I'm probably going to die tonight" I explained with a look of dispair.

"Meredith I know Alex told you I was married. But there's a reason I left. He use to hit me and I finally had enough. I changed my name and left. I live in fear that he will find me, everyday" she confessed. We hear a pager beep. I look down at my pager.

"Sorry I got to go, thank you very much for making me feel better" I thanked her with a smile and closed the door behind me.

After I walk out and head to where I was paged. I get there. There were no ambulances out. No staff. I start to get freaked out. As I turn to walk a way. I didn't seen some come from behind. I felt arms wrap around my neck. Someone squeezed their arms tighter around my neck. Leaving me trying to pry lose. I tried to kick but I heard someone else pull a blind fold over my eyes. I couldn't see. I was petrified. It was like I was paralyzed. I couldn't move. I struggled to escape. I kicked the person. They groan and slapped me. This time I tried to scream for help. I kept hopping someone would come out. They taped my mouth shut. I tried to scream again and I kicked repeatedly. Someone picked me up and threw me into something. I heard the trunk slam shut. They start the car and speed off. I realized I still had my phone. I quickly pulled it out. With my untied arm I pulled the blind fold off. I tried to text Alex. With my shaken hands. I begin to type.

To Alex: Alex I knooow I haven't beeen speaking to you. But aleeexxxx.Iiiii neeeed youuuuuu. right now I really neeeed your hehdhejdbhdjfb."

I wasn't able to finish up. I heard heavy foot steps get closer to trunk of the car. With my shaky hands I tried to hit send. The trunk top opened. The two very strong guys wrestle for my phone. One hit me. I pulled back and kicked the guy hard. I press send. The other guy snatches the phone out of my hands and slammed it on the ground. It smashed in pieces. The two men picked me up and threw me down on the stone pavement. I screamed in pain.

"This is what you get for telling" He yelled hatefully as the venom of his words hit me.

Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.

"Oh your not so strong are you" The guy mocked with a grin.

I stayed silent. I missed Alex and my kids.

"So Meredith Grey, my name is Paul Stadler" Paul voiced cold-hearted.

"What do you want for me"? I asked weakly.

"I want you tell me where Brooke is or your dead" He threatened hostilely.

His voice was full of poison. I didn't know who Brooke was. Oh my god this is Jo's abusive husband.

"I don't know a Brooke" I lied.

"Don't you dare lie to me" He yelled in a repugnant tone.

I was so scared for my life. I couldn't even look Paul in the cold eyes. He starts to go ballistic. He grabbed my hair forcefully. "You better start talking before I go find her myself" Paul threatened with a wicked smile.

"I don't know" I lied again.

I get ready for him to hit me. This time he lifts me up by my hair and drops me. I crashed down. I screamed in pain. "Shut the fuck up, bitch" He snapped venom-lessly He grabs me and shoved me against the wall forcefully. Then he takes me by my feet. He throws me into a cell. It slams behind me. I turned around holding in moans. I was in terrible pain. Paul and the other guy laughed and slammed the door behind them.

I just burst into tears. I had nothing. I was still wearing my dark navy blue scrubs. Which had blood and shreds in them. I tried to stand up, instead of standing. My still hurt leg buckled and slammed down on the stone cold ground. It was freezing in the cell. All I wanted was Alex's strong arms protecting me. All I wanted in general was Alex. I missed him so badly. I hoped he got my text. I hope Jo stays safe. I was worried about her. After a long fight. I was exhausted. I shut my eyes and begin to dream about being at home in my comfy bed with Alex's arms wrapped around me.

Oh god. I just realized that I'm in love with Alex. Why do I always notice at horrible times. Hopefully they realize soon. "I love you Alex" I whispered to myself.
