Your New Father(A Benedict Cumberbatch Fan Fiction)

Chapter 34

I woke up finding I was still at the police station and everyone was surrounding me.

"Scarlet!" Cecil immediately gave me a hug but I pulled of because of the masive headache I'm going through.

"Ben I want to go home." That was the place that I wanted to go, the only place. In fact, it was already 7, I've been unconscious for such a long time.

In the car, no one dared to talk, not even Williamson. I believe they knew what happened in there. Cecil followed mw to my room once we reached home.

"You need some time alone?" He asked while I walk towards the couch in my room and looked out through the window.

"You can stay." I muttered softly but loud enough that he could hear me.

"She's crazy you know?"

"Shut up Cecil." After that he understood that I didn't want to talk about it.

He went down to look for Ben then came back up telling mr dinner was ready.

"I can't eat..."

"You have to." Cecil said.

"No I don't." Ben came up to my room and told Cecil to go out.

"Cecil is trying to help." He said while he sat beside me.

"I don't need help."

"If you don't you won't be sitting here staring out through the window."

"I'm just admiring the outside of this room is that wrong?" After that he didn't say anything. I felt sort of bad for talking like that to Ben and all the other people because I knew they were just trying to help.

Without saying a word, all I did waa hugged him since I knew my tears were going to fall. He automatically hugged back.

"It's all okay now. You're here, Cecil, Williamson and I will take care of you. Just ignore what Lind said...." he patted my back.

"What... what if it's real? What if all those stuff she said was the truth?" This time, my tears fell.

"She's crazy. Crazy people say crazy lies." He whispered into my ears. He let me continue crying in his chest for a while until Cecil came in.

"Does she need dinner?" I heard Cecil whispered to Ben softly but it was loud enough for me to hear but I ignored it.

"It's okay. I'll let her sleep." Ben replied. After that, Ben carried  me bridal style to my bed and covered me with my blanket.

"Go to sleep baby." He kissed my forehead and sat beside my bed. It was obvious he won't go until I sleep so I tried and fall asleep and I did.

The next morning I woke up finding myself laying my head on Cecil's chest. Everything was so peaceful it seemed as if nothing had happened. I moved away from him and slept on the other side of the bed not because I didn't like it but if I continue sleeping on him, he would hurt when he woke up.

I stayed in bed rolling around, playing with my blanket and sometimes having my tears to fall a little but I managed to wipe them away everytime.

It was until 9 when everyone was awake. They begged me to get out of bed but I insisted not to. Nothing is motivating me to wake up, especially after what that had the day before.

"Scarlet someone's here to see you." Ben came in and informed me, by that time it was already 11am.

"Get out." I muttered while pulling my blankets.

"Please Scarlet..."

"Out!" I screamed while throwing him a blanket. I knew he was upset of what I just did but his face changed when two officers came in.
