I Fell for My Rapist?

Shattered Glass

Back home-
Dads p.o.v-

I had just gotten back from a business trip late that night. I put my bags down at the foot of the stairs. I made my way to my room and changed into some casual clothes and went to check on Danielle. She always wants me to wake her up when I get home so we can talk for a bit. When I got to her door I opened it up quietly and made my way over to her bed, but she wasn't there. I looked over at her bathroom door, but there weren't any lights. I started to panic and that's when I saw that her window had been broken. Glass laid shattered along the floor. I ran to my room and got my phone, as I dialed 9-1-1 I woke Kathy up to inform her.

"Hello 9-1-1, what's your emergency?" The operator said calmly.

"My daughters window is busted and she's missing!" My words came rushed.

"Okay, we'll send someone out. What's your address sir? Is everyone okay?"

"As far as I know, yes." I said as I walked to Braxton's crib, he was still there so that's good. " And my address is 152 Prospect Road."

"Okay sir, an officer is on his way out there now. Call back if you need anything."

"Okay.. Thank you." And with that I hung up.

I informed Kathy and she began to cry. I pulled her into my arms and told her everything would be okay. We sat there for a few minutes in dead silence. Braxton's breathing was all that could be heard. The doorbell rang through out the massive house making Braxton wake up, he began to cry. So I told Kathy to take care of him and I'd get the door. I went down stairs and opened the door to reveal an officer. "Hello sir, I'm officer Barnes. I'm here to get all of the details for your case."

"Hello, I'm Neil Harrison. Please, come in."

He walked in and we went to the living room he began asking me questions. "What's your daughters full name?"

"Danielle Nicole Harrison."

"Age?"

"17."

"Height?"

"5 foot 3 inches."

"Weight?"

"125 pounds I believe."

"Hair and eye color?"

"Long, light brown hair; and green eyes."

"Do you have a current picture of her?"

"Yes sir, I do." I went and got my wallet. I pulled out the picture we took two weeks ago on vacation. "Please, when you're done with that, can I get it back?"

"Yes sir, you can. Now the last thing I need is to see the scene of the crime and get some pictures."

I took him up to her room and let him do his thing. When he finished up I went and locked the door behind him wishing him a goodnight. I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. This was the last thing I expected to come home to.

Kathy's p.o.v-

As Neil briskly walked to the door I went to care for Braxton. He can be a handful, but I love him dearly, as I do Danielle. With my baby boy in my arms I began so rock him back to sleep, it took a bit, but he was finally out. I held him in my arms thankful that both of my children weren't gone. I can't bare knowing Danielle is gone.. I couldn't handle them both being gone. I held back my tears the best I could. I needed to stay strong. I could hear Neil and the officer talking but couldn't really tell what was going on. A few minutes later I heard footsteps so I put Braxton back in his crib. I went and stood in the doorway listening to the men talk. When the man left I decided to go to sleep, hoping that tonight would be nothing but a dream.

Neil's p.o.v-

The water was okay, but didn't help me so I poured myself a glass of whiskey instead. I went into the family room and sat on the couch. I put the glass down, and just sat there thinking. The leather was cold against my legs. I guess I dosed off because and hour went by. I got up and went upstairs, Kathy and Braxton were both sound asleep. I kissed my son good night and crawled into bed kissing Kathy.
