Your New Father(A Benedict Cumberbatch Fan Fiction)

Chapter 28

We tied Chris up and put him in the back of the car. Ben was driving, Williamson was telling us what to do while I was just looking out to the window thinking of what will happen to Cecil.

"He's going to be alright my dear." Ben patted my leg. Williamson was asleep. It was already late at night, I still could not sleep.

"Why must she kidnap people who are related to me?" I said still looking out to the window.

"To threaten you. she first captured you because she wants to kill you. Now she wants to get Cecil and I so that you will do whatever she says."

"I won't."

"Well you will have to. Because he would do the same for you."

"What do you mean?"

"I looked at him, his cheekbones looked even better under the moonlight.

"Nothing, you should probably get some sleep, once we're there we won't get any resting time."

I did as he said, I slept. I did get some nightmares but the sleep was worth it.

"We're here." Ben woke me up. Back to this house I guessed.

"So how should we start? Any ideas Williamson?" I asked once I got down from the car. Ben was tired after all the driving but insisted that he followed us.

"We just walk staight in, come, help me get Chris out." right after he said that, I got a call, from Linda.

"Stay where you are." she said.

"I'm just going to get Chris isn't that what you want?" I said sternly.

"Who's with you?"

"Williamson and Benedict Cumberbatch. Just both of them, and of course Chris too."

"You have a minute to get Chris to the front of the house. Then only you can come in, the rest stays there, where they are currently standing. Your one minute starts now." she hung up. Luckily I was on speaker which meant I didn't have to explain. Williamson told us to do it her way of coursr Ben wasn't really keen on going her way but I thought it was the only way.

"Hello Scarlet." Linda opened the door.

"Hello Linda. May I come in please?" she let me in. Of course Lilz was there staring at me.

"Now, mind putting Chris down?"

"Not until you give me Cecil." she stopped for a second, the laughed.

"Oh poor poor Cecil... Going through so much for his girl..." then she whispered something to Lilz.

"Tell me, what is it actually that you did?" I asked.

"You'll see." she smirked. Then came down Lilz with Cecil. His shirt was torned, bruises all over his face but that was not it. One of his finger were cut off and there was a big cut on his leg, I estimated about 9 centimeters long, and was really deep.

"About to cry Scarlet?" Linda said. All I did was staring at Cecil. He as half dead, couldn't even open his eyes.

"Put Chris down, get Cecil and get out. You won't want him to die don't you?" I threw Chris hard on the floor, I could hear he yelped a little then I pulled Cecil put and slammed the door.

"Open the door! We need to get to the hospital!" I could already felt tears dropping from my eyes.

We drove to the nearest hospital. He was in the emergency room for about 2 hours.

"Will he be okay?" I said. I laid down on Ben's shoulders. I was tired and scared that I would loss my boy.

"He'll be just fine although he did lose a lot of blood but that can be fixed but the finger is possibly gone...." Williamson said before Ben could say anuthing. Of course what he said only made the situation much worst. I didn't even notice that I fell asleep on Ben's shoulder and it was him who carried me into Cecil's room when we were allowed to see him.

"You were tired so I didn't wake you up." Ben said. He was sitting at the corner of the sofa where I was sleeping.

"Cecil? Is he alright?" I stood up feeling wobbly.

"We told him to sleep. He insisted that he needed to talk to you first but then fell asleep." Williamson whispered to me. He was beside Cecil. I slowly walked towards him. All those stiches. All terrible.

"How long has he been asleep?" I asked.

"About an hour."

"When are we going back to London?"

"Maybe on Thrusday. Doctors did said he won't be abble to get out tomorrow but I'll be going by tonight, I have work to do." Ben said and walked towards us.

"Must you leave?"

"Yes Scarlet I'm sorry but I have too... Williamson will take care of you two."

"More like I have to take care of him.." I gave Ben a hug.

"Hey, just because I like to be involve in things doesn't mean I mess things up." he said. I laughes a little, it did made me felt bettet but not too much. It was then when I got another phone call.

"Hello?" I said.

"Long time since we last spoke huh?"
