Winnie on the hunt Dennis X Winnie

chapter 23

    Dennis sighed, realizing his temper, even if the guy deserved it, he couldn't stop thinking on his choices, but it wasn't just that, it was Winnie, HIS Winnie, he was hers, and she was his, not engaged, but in the promise, to be for one another, it was time he realized, it would be tonight.

    "Dennis?" Winnie said snapping him out of his trance.

    Dennis looked up and saw they were in front of the local police station. Dennis pulled himself of the broom marching to the front door with phone in hand.

    "Officer." He said said to the cop who appeared to be focusing on a couple files.

    "Yes, how can I help you?" He said in a bored almost uninterested tone.

    Dennis could tell from the crumbs in his stubble, and glazed eyes, that he was barely focusing on the papers, along with himself, something about it made Dennis tweaked.

    "We're here to report an attempted rape on my girlfriend." Dennis said firmly.

    The man lifted an eye, it focused on Dennis before Winnie, Dennis could almost sense judgement on their appearance.

    "Do you have a description of the criminal?" He asked in a now slightly skeptic tone.

    Dennis handed him the phone.

    "Mhm," He said before pushing his chair to a filing cabinet. "If you see this man again, call this number, and send this picture to this number here, we'll look into this disturbance when we can."

    He handed Dennis and Winnie a couple notes with numbers on them.

    "Is . . . Is that all you can do?" Dennis asked feeling ignored.

    "Listen kid, we've got worked packed up with officials as is, with the Olympics being set up." He responded.

    "Yes, and I was selected." Winnie spoke up handing him the letter.

    The policeman sighed.

    "Look, just send that picture to that number, it'll be on the board in no time." He said turning back to his papers.

    Dennis eyed him before taking the papers and leaving, not before hearing a light scoff.

    "Monster olympics, absurd." They heard him under his breath.

    Dennis' feet planted into the ground. Winnie tried to keep him moving, but the anger had him rooted. Dennis turned around marching back to the desk.

    "Tell me, do you have anyone special in your life?" Dennis asked with a dead eyed stare.

    He looked back, and could see the anger in his eyes, the officer put down his papers, taking off his glasses in an attempt to show his seriousness.

    "Yes." He said firmly.

    "Would you die protecting her?" Dennis asked.

    He looked towards Winnie and then down in a bit of remorse.

    "Yeah, I would," He answered. "I'm sorry."

    "I wouldn't just die protecting her," Dennis whispered. "I'd die protecting the innocent, monster or not, this man tried to rape an innocent, it's your job to take care of it, and if you don't, I will."

    The cop suddenly gave a thoughtful look towards Dennis as he turned to leave.

    "It could be your job," The cop said. "if you wanted it to be."

    Dennis turned back and saw on the notice board next to the cop window, was a little note. All it said was 'Join the force! Today!'.

    He pulled it off the wall and looked towards the cop who had a small smile.

    "Let me be your reference, it's not much of an apology, but it's hopefully something." He said handing him a 3rd number.

    Dennis looked back at Winnie who had an unsure look on her face.

    "I'll think about it." Dennis said before turning to leave.
