I walked into the coffee shop and immediately saw the last people I wanted to see. I felt a slight shock in my right ear and Emma's voice left. God dammit. Fuck going back out, I needed to finish this.

I walked over and sat down at the table, sitting across from them. He had his arm around her, and looked slightly uneasy. She looked smug as hell and confident.

She leaned forward as I sat down, giving me a view of her breasts. This little bitch.

"What did you do to Emma?" I growl. I clench my fists under the table and stare into her eyes. He just looks away.

"Oh, a little bruise won't hurt her. Just needed to show ya what I can do." She gave me a flashy but fake smile and I feel my jaw tighten involuntarily.

"Same way as Baron won't hurt her, just keep her where she is."

Panic surges through me and my heart squeezes in my chest. I resist the urge to stand up right now and sprint out the door. I know she's bluffing.

"What do you want, and how did you do it." I demand.

"Just let me make one thing clear before I answer you. She leans forward and sets her hand on my cheek, pulling me forward so her mouth is by my ear.

"I am the one in charge here." She whispers, and I feel a shock tear through my brain. I tighten up and now my head so my face is against the table. I feel her hand petting my hair and want to punch her but I can't move.

The pain starts where her hand just was, and spreads through my head in waves, making my thoughts go fuzzy. Finally it stops, and I move my face from the table. I look up at her, sweat dripping down my face, and she says, "Let's take this somewhere else, shall we?"

She stands up, grabbing my arm and my weak body is dragged along behind her. It just looks like a girl and her boyfriend to anyone looking.

We go out the back and she gets into the back of a large black SUV. I rest my head against the seat, trying to regain control of my thoughts.

After a while the car stops and she pulls me out. We walk to a picnic area that seems empty. Just me, him and her. She sits me down and they sit on the other side.

"What do you want from me?" I ask once more.

She looks to me and smiles.

"I want you."

He looks at her with hurt in his eyes and she pushes him away to crawl over the table to me.

"Give me what I want, and your free. Simple as that. If you make this more difficult than it has to be, then I will follow your lead." She smiles at me.

Suddenly, I hear a crackle in my ear. I accidentally make a face, and she frowns. I look down, hoping it to happen again as she grabs my chin and tilts my head up. She kisses my nose, and I try to back away.

She nods to him and with sad eyes he comes behind me and holds me.

"No! You don't have to do this! You have a good life and she's gonna ruin it! Please don't!" I yell frantically, waiting for my earpiece to buzz again.

I get a word this time. I hear Em crying my name. Can she hear me?

I pray that she can as she creeps up to me. As I back away, his body presses against mine and I feel a growing pain in my back. Does he have something in his pocket? No it would be off to the side. And not so big... My eyes go wide in realization. Holy shit fuck fuck fuck.

She grabs my chin and jerks my head up, leaning in.

"Wait!" I yell.

"Not at the park! At least be decent enough to not do this at the park! Especially the elementary one!"

"This isn't an elementary you fucking idiot." She retorts, and I bite back a smile.

"What the hell is it then, fuckin Greenwood park? Who gives a shit it's still a park."

I hear a siren in the distance and take my shot. I twist away from him and she shrieks. I run away from the picnic area and hear her yell, "Where's the fucking button?!"

Fuck I forgot about that.

Once again, I feel a ripping pain year through my head. I crumpled up and fell to the leaf covered ground. I cried out in agony as it didn't stop like the first time. I writhed on the ground, not being able to do much else.

"Stop you'll kill him!" He yelled.

"I don't give a fucking shit!" She screamed back.

I heard her shriek as I fell into darkness.

Emma POV

We pulled up and I saw Elliot on top of Brooke, holding her down. About 30 feet away from them was Lannan, unconscious on the ground.

"Lannan!" I ran to him as Baron ran to Elliot and Brooke, arresting both of them.

I got there and fell to my knees. I rolled him over. He was still breathing. Oh thank god. I tried shaking him awake but he wouldn't. Instead I just held his head in my lap and spoke to him.

"Lannan your so brave. Lannan when you wake up we won't let anything else happen. Lannan I love you."

At the last one, his eyelashes fluttered, but it was so faint that I wondered if I had imagined it. So I said it again. And once again his eyelashes fluttered.

Just then the ambulance pulled up and loaded him in. I got in with him and held his hand the way there.

After an hour or so, he woke up. "Emma." He just said.

"Lannan I'm here."

"Emma I love you."

And he fell back asleep.

The next day I was just holding his hand next to his bed when he reached over and tilted my chin up. I gasped and hugged him. He chuckled and came in for a kiss.

We left the hospital and got an Uber to the Click house. Elliot's secret wasn't going to be kept any longer.
