XD i think i'd really like to be an author. well i am glad to say that my mom is feeling better today. she was feeling a little off this morning but as the day progressed she became fine. hmmm i did some cleaning today. i cleaned half of my room and folded up a bunch of my clothes. (which had previously been scattered around the room) aaaaaand i cleaned off the totally disgusting area around the computer. everything smelt like pee cause the cat we used to have (yuki) he used to pee on stuff alot. it was so gross. well it's back to school tomorrow and because i didn't go to school on wednesday i feel like i haven't been in school in forever! i'm really looking forward to school though so i can tell everyone about the concert and flaunt my fall out boy tote bag that has andy's signature on it! mwahahahaha! i don't think too many people will care but i know at least one person who will be jealous. well my peeps it is time for a new chapter of murder and lyrics! i don't think this is too long so it shouldn't be a hard read. previously: jenny brought in evidence that could prove josiah's innocence. danielle found the tape from the day jake and lexi were attacked and danielle came to the conclusion that it was either jake or lexi themselves who had done the attack. murder and lyrics chapter twenty four: waking words danielle left the station without telling timothy. her need to find the truth overpowered her need to tell her partner where she was going. she drove quickly down the streets of L.A to the angel's and kings hospital where lexi was still located. danielle knew she had to talk to lexi, she prayed that the starlet would be awake. if danielle's hunch was correct then she needed to talk to both lexi and jake, but if her hunch was right that meant that one of them was suddenly extreamly dangerous. as she pulled into the hospital's parking lot she noticed that the sun was becoming lower in the sky and soon it would be dark. danielle fished her cell out of her pocket and dialed timothy's number as she walked up to the hospital's doors. he anwsered on the third ring and she hovered out in the waiting room as they talked. "timothy, listen i left the station and i'm at the hospital. i'm going to see if i can talk to lexi but i need someout out there to try and find jake and tell whoever you send to keep tabs on him but not to interact with him." she told him. timothy made a noise of acceptance though she could tell that he wasn't happy that she had left without telling him. danielle hung up with timothy and headed into the hospital arriving at the nurses station to ask to see lexi. "i need to see lexi hartford right away." danielle told the head nurse who stood at the station looking every bit worn out and slightly aggrevaited. the woman glanced at the clock behind her then to the badge on danielle's chest before she nodded and moved from behind the desk motioning for danielle to follow. "she just woke up for the first time about twenty minutes ago." the woman told her and danielle nodded excitied that lexi was actually awake and would be able to anwser questions. the nurse led danielle down the hall and stopped infront of lexi's room, this time danielle could see that lexi was visibly awake and sitting up though she had the look of someone who was tired and awoken unwittingly. the nurse warned danielle that visiting hours would be over in fifteen minutes and danielle nodded wondering if she would even need that long with the girl. the nurse left and danielle knocked on the door of the room before opening it and stepping inside. lexi took on a look of surprise as her dark eyes flickered over danielle's face and she quickly looked away from the woman. "detective...no gift?" she asked and it was obvious that lexi was joking around. danielle flashed a grin in appreciation of lexi's attempt at humor. "no, sorry." danielle responded as she stepped towards lexi's bed. "do you mind if i ask you a few questions lexi?" she asked and lexi sat silent as she pulled a hand through her dark hair. "sure detective." she began "but i don't know how much help i'll be." she warned and danielle nodded as she took a seat in the chair beside lexi's bed. "i just want to know lexi, do you remember anything that happened the night you were shot?" danielle asked as she studied lexi's face. lexi was looking down at her hands and the bone white id braclet that was wrapped around her wrist. "i-it's hard...everything is kinda fuzzy you know?" lexi began and danielle could definitly see a difference in lexi's personality. it seemed that it took the girl almost dying before she would change her attitude. "but i remember jake being there in the room with me." she continued. "we were talking then there was a knock on the door..." lexi stopped after that as she continued to look down at her hands. she looked up again after a minute of silence. "i'm sorry, i can't remember." she said sadly. "come on lexi. i know you can do this. i know you can remember what happened." danielle encouraged the girl. "the knock on the door was a room service man. he came inside the room. do you remember what happened after that?" danielle asked lightly. she didn't want to overexert the girl after all she had just woken up. lexi continued to look down at her hands but she appeared to be lost in thought hopefully trying to remember what had happened in the hotel room. she was silent for a good two minutes as danielle waited patiently knowing that this is what it took to get something out of someone. suddenly lexi lifted her head her eyes gone wide and she shook a bit as she turned to look at danielle. "what's wrong?" danielle began alarmed at the frightened look on lexi's face. "i remember it all...." lexi began her voice barely a whisper. "you do? you have to tell me lexi who was it?" danielle asked as she leaned forward towards the girl. "after the real room service waiter left...it was just jake and i...he-he wanted to talk to me but i didn't want to...i told him to leave but he wouldn't go he said he had to do something first...then...then jake pulled out a gun and before i could do anything...he-he shot me!" lexi let out a strangled sob. danielle's heart beat quicker then ever her hunch was right jake did shoot lexi in the hotel room but it still didn't account for how jake was stabbed. "so then you stabbed jake in defense?" danielle asked but lexi through her now tear filled eyes looked at danielle and shook her head. "no, i-i never stabbed jake. i fell after he shot me i was still alive...but god did it hurt...i was sure that jake would kill me but he didn't i could see him and i watched him pull out a knife...he-he stabbed himself! i watched as he stabbed himself in the shoulder then he dragged the knife down his arm...i was getting dizzy after that but i saw jake heading for the phone...that's all i remember...." lexi trailed off and looked down at her hands, her face had lost all color from remembering what had happened to herself and jake. danielle herself felt nervous as if what lexi had said had happened to her. she now knew that jake had hurt himself and lexi as a set up, jake was trying to set someone up but who? and why? before danielle could go on with her line of questioning for lexi the nurse who had let her in returned and informed her that visiting hours were over. danielle considered telling the woman that police business meant that she didn't have to follow the rules but she didn't like playing the power card and lexi looked like she couldn't handle much more anyway. danielle said goodbye to lexi and thanked her for the information she had given before she left the room. before she left the hospital she told the nurse not to let jake come back to visit lexi. by now there was no telling what jake would do to anyone who crossed his path. danielle turned back on her cell phone as she went to her car and noticed that she missed about three calls from timothy. she flipped open her phone and dialed his number knowing that she would have to call him anyway. she got into her car as the phone rang and fumbled with her keys when he anwsered. "danielle, i've been trying to get ahold of you for the last twenty minutes." timothy complained. "i was in the hospital talking to lexi." she reminded him "and i got something to tell you." she began before he cut her off. "wait i got to tell you something too. let me go first." he said and danielle agreed. "we let josiah go." he told her and danielle felt her heart lift up for the first time since she had talked to lexi. "what? why?" she asked not sounding upset but more surprised. "that evidence that jenny had it was right. josiah had witnesses basically the guy had an alibi." timothy told her "anyway what did you want to say?" he asked "oh right well you're not going to believe this but jake was the one who attacked lexi and himself!" danielle said too excitedly "she told you that! that's huge!" timothy said echoing her excitment. "yeah, and this time i really don't think she was lying she was too real to be lying." danielle told him. "so i'm gonna need you to get a warrent out for jake and to get some people out looking for him...there's no telling what he'll do." she said. "yeah, hey do you think he killed danielle?" timothy asked and danielle was silent, it was the question that had plauged her mind since lexi had confirmed her suspicions. "i really don't know." danielle began "but i'm going to his house to see if he's there." danielle said. "no!" timothy began "you shouldn't go alone." "it would freak him out if he saw more then one of us and besides i got my gun." danielle said. timothy gave in and the duo hung up. danielle started her car as she ran her hand along the gun that rested in it's holster and perpaired to drive to jakes house. meanwhile jake walker stood outside of an apartment on the second floor of a pricey building. he had been to this apartment before and he knocked as he waited for an anwser. cassie pulled the door of her apartment open only to see the blonde man known as jake walker standing there before her. "oh jake hey." cassie said obviously surprised to see jake at her door. "hey, um i was wondering if i could talk to you?" jake asked as he looked down the hall and fidgeted with the bandages on his arm. cassie looked taken aback but she gave jake a small smile. "um sure jake, come on inside." cassie said as she moved aside and let jake into her apartment. ************************************** why did jake attack himself and lexi? is josiah really innocent? did jake kill danny? and what does he want with cassie? find out next time! ~red~
