Your New Father(A Benedict Cumberbatch Fan Fiction)

Chapter 40

Scarlet POV~

"This reminds me Scarlet. I'll need to get you people new phone numbers. You'll need to use it for now to contact anyone of us who are part of this." Williamson said after I told him what happened to Chris.

"What's wrong with you Williamson?! Chris is laying down here and he is not moving a muscle and you are there ordering me to get new phone numbers?!" I yelled, Cecil was shivering in the corner of the room. As much as Cecil hated Chris, deep down he was a little boy who looked up on to his older brother.

"Well his pulse?"

"Checked, positive, we layed him down of the bed."

"That's all you need to do." And he hung up probably not happy about how I yelled at him.

"You okay?" I walked towards Cecil and gave him a hug.

"I'll be fine." Then he stood up and walked to the kitchen without saying anything else. I wanted to continue talking to him but I guessed it was better for him to spend some time alone.

I went up and checked on Chris, still there were no signs of him waking up.

"How is he?" Cecil asked once I came back down.

"No signs of him waking up but I guess he will be fine." Soon ii regretted for saying that Chris did not seem as if he was about to wake up because Cecil dd not look good.

"How do yo think the people from school will think about us?" I tried changing the topic and sat down beside him.

"They will probably be praying for you."

"And you too." I corrected him.

"Nah.... most of them hate me anyways."

"That's a lie." I said hoping he was not proud of what he just said because he is the nicest person any girl can date.

"I'm telling the truthh, they hate me for dating such a wondefu girl like you..." then he gave me a long kiss, so long if Ben was there Ben would probably be mad at Cecil for the rest of his life.

All I could think of at that moment was not about what Cecil said but was how Cecil could be super emotional sometimes, like a girl.

That night, I made some spaghetti with the ingredients that Williamson bought from the grocery store that seemed to be 30 minutes away from here.

"How is Chris?" Cecil felt much better than and could even take turns with me to check on Chris.

"No progress, pulse still normal, do you think we should send him to the hospital?"

"We can't, we can get killed."

"Linda doesn't want us dead..." he whispered behind my ear while I was chopping up some mushrooms.

"Well you can never know." Then I turned and gave him a light kiss then went back to my dish. He went up to check on Chris after that then didn't come down and help which was really THOUGHTFUL of him... then I wondered how Ben was doing so while the spaghetti were cooking, I called him.

"Any news Ben?" I asked. I could hear him breathing fast and tired like he ran out of breath.

"They are not here..." he blurted out.

"What do you mean?" I tried keeping calm even though my friends were in real trouble.

"We've been here searching up and down but still nothing, not even a clue one where they are..." he sounded like he needed to catch his breath.

"Just come back then..."

That night I couldn't go to sleep, I was too worried about Jade and Edmund. Linda's crazy, she could do anything with them.

"You're not asleep yet?" Ben came back and came into my room.

"Can't sleep."

"Well you'll need some sleep that's for sure. We'll be doing something tomorrow."

"What thing?"

"You'll go talk to Lind."

Linda POV~

It was so hard getting those two on the plane, one had to be dragged and the other had to see his own girlfriend getting beaten to get on the plane.

"I swear Scarlet's going to look for us and she will hunt you down!" Jade said even after several warnings.

"Oh please Scarlet couldn't even accept the fact that hus boyfriend kissed her enemy..." I smirked at Edmund, he was not looking too good, just what I wanted.

"Shut up Cecil didn't kiss anyone besides her, she's like the world to him..."

"Not him, maybe you can ask Edmund for the answer?"

"What do you mean Linda as if..."

"Edmund you better answer or else." I took out the belt I used to hit Jade to threaten Edmund. Guessed I'll have a nice show to watch.

"Nothing happened." Edmund said.

"Wrong answer." I hit Jade hard which made her cried a little.

"Jade doesn't have to be involve in this." Edmund said sternly.

"Wrong answer again. Come on Edmund it's an easy question!" I hit Jade again this time she crawled towards her dearest Edmund.

"Fine... I kissed Linda. Edmund kissed Linda, you happy now?!"
