Excerpt
This is a terrible idea. I can’t stay here.” I
wished there was
more force behind my voice, more sound, but all
I could get
out was a squeak of protest.
Between arguing with David, answering a million
questions
about the shooting, and even more from the
hospital
staff to determine whether my head had been
damaged further,
what little voice I had was shot. It had been a
long,
arduous morning. The shock from being shot at
was still
buzzing underneath my skin, but it was now secondary
to the
utter disbelief that the place Case believed I
would be safest
was under his roof.
When he told me he was placing me in protective
police
custody and taking me to a safe house, never in
a million
years would I have guessed he meant his house.
I was wondering
if maybe he was the one who hurt his head when
he
took me to the ground.
“What about Hayes? Someone shot at me today.
You took
a bullet for me this morning. You can’t put
your son in the
line of fire. I won’t allow it.” All of the things
I wanted to
do to emphasize my point, I couldn’t. There was
no crossing
my arms over my chest thanks to my jacked-up
elbow. There
was no stomping my foot in aggravation thanks
to the soft
splint holding my ankle in one position. There
would be no
yelling, since my voice could barely be heard,
so all I was
left with was a glare. Unfortunately, Case
ignored my dirty
look and continued to usher me inside the
house.
His morning had been even longer than mine, and
he
looked as haggard as I felt. After making sure
I was secured
inside the hospital with an armed guard, he’d
had to deal
with the crime scene and the slew of reporters
who showed
up on the scene. Since a shooting in a high
traffic and very
public place like the hospital was bound to
make national
news, Case mentioned it was more than likely
the Texas
Rangers were going to get called in to help
investigate. He
didn’t sound thrilled at the prospect, he also
didn’t seem too
concerned by the fact he was shot. He still had
a red stain
and a hole in his tan uniform shirt from where
the bullet,
which was meant for me, skimmed his shoulder.
The wound
required ten stitches and now was dressed in a
stark white
bandage much like the one wrapped around my
injured hand.
We were quite a pair.
