Dream Catcher

Redress

Lauren saw everything. From the moment they locked their lips until she got the feeling that they'll be over soon.

She wanted to say something but what can she do?

Be indulged in their moment and ask Y/N things about the things that she only made out in her mind? The imagination that Y/N was in love with her too? And that Y/N does even remember what she did in the last situation that they were together?

She had no other choice but to turn around and see herself out of the building and out of Y/N's life.

You may not want to be late.

Those words from the old lady earlier rang in her ears for a little while before she took a step out of the place.

"Lauren?"

"Who? Where?", Grace asked Y/N.

"I saw her standing just right behind you."

"Come on now, babe. We don't wanna scare each other out. This place is too scary now for us to make ghost jokes."

"Lauren isn't dead yet, is she?"

"As far as I know, no. But maybe you're just having illusions because of the drugs that they were giving you."

"I see.", Y/N replied her sadness changed her tone a bit.

"Are you okay? Come on, now. I'll get you out of here. I'll let them transfer you to a much better place other than this crap. Can you walk?"

"No. I don't feel my legs."

"That's fine. I'll just get out to call someone and then process everything to get you out of here. It'll take just a moment, I promise, babe. I will be with you again shortly. Can you hold on for a moment?", Grace tried her best to assure Y/N that she'll be back and that she won't leave her alone in there for another time which seems like an eternity.

On the other hand, Lauren is keeping her pace up to exit the building immediately when the old lady called her up.

"Michelle! How did the visit go?"

"I was too late, abuelita.", she used her coat to wipe the tears that came down her cheeks.

Lauren didn't turn back, she continued to walk out as fast as she could.

She didn't want to make a rash decision but everything that she hoped for crumbled in pieces right in front of her. She needs to do it.

She will try and move on from Y/N. Lauren never wanted to but is waiting for Y/N while she is already in a relationship is the right thing to do?

No.

Back at the HQ, Capt. Bruce Taylor is currently having a phone call with one of his people.

"It can't be, they shouldn't. God! What the hell did I ordered you to do?", his voice was loud and clear.

"We didn't know they would find her here."

"Bullshit! That was the order that we were supposed to do! Lock that bitch up and that's it, who's in there with her?"

"Another agent, she introduced herself to me earlier."

"I'm asking for her name, idiot!"

"Grace Righetti."

"Oh damn you. Release Y/N and make something up not too suspicious for them to believe that Y/N isn't mean to be placed there. You clean this shit up, you're one hell of an idiot, aren't you?"

"Sorry, sir."

"Well, do your fucking job. If this shit blows up, I'd kill you myself. And about that red-haired intruder, don't do anything to her without thinking."
