The Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team Series Chapter 265
Alisa"Why the long face?" Glancing up, I notice Stella's taken a seat across from me. She puts her feet up, sighing deeply. "I don't know how to keep my heart safe from Archer," I admit, sighing right back at her. She giggles, smirking. "Girl, why are you even trying? Those guys on the police force are the best ones I've ever known. All fucking hot as hell, especially my baby daddy." "I haven't had the best luck when it comes to putting my faith in others. The fact of the matter is, I've been disappointed more than I've been surprised. At some point in the last few years, I started protecting myself and not letting anyone get too close. I was fine with that until I moved here. Archer and you have started to get under my skin. I haven't even allowed myself to have friends in forever." "And here I am, coming in with leftovers for you and an iced coffee. How dare I?" My eyes roll heavenward. "It sounds stupid, I know. It's just…" I st

ArcherThere's a crowd in the squad room when I get to the station. I left my patrol SUV last night to get the oil changed, instead of going straight out on the streets, and I have to stop in to get my keys. "What's happening in here?""Dad's decided he's going to have a cookout and he's invited anyone who wants to come," Cruise says, standing next to me and crossing his arms. "Me? I'm wondering what my mom had to say about this." "She realizes since I'm Chief now, we'll be expected to do things like this. You leave your mom to me." Judging by the heat in Mason's eyes, he knows exactly how to handle his wife. I've always been scared to get married after what my parents put me through and I don't plan to. But if I could, his is the type of marriage I'd aspire to have. That's what I want. The kind of relationship where I know we'll be together for the rest of our lives. We'll have inside jokes and secret looks. We'll love our kids all the way through their lives,

AlisaThe dishes in my sink won't wait one more minute. Not only because I can't stand to look at them any longer, but I don't have more than four plates and they're all dirty. Since I talked to Stella about the life I grew up in, I've been avoiding being an adult. Normally, I don't tend to put off what I can get done. My parents did that a lot as a child and the amount of anxiety I have to cover up today because of it used to be debilitating. As I'm about to start my dishwater, my phone rings. Looking at the clock, I realize it's probably not Archer. He worked a double shift and, if he's awake now, he's in for a long day. Not only that but he's tired as fuck. Glancing down, my stomach drops as I see Mom on the screen. It's never good when she calls me. I learned a long time ago she's not one to call and chat. She's more the type who calls to see what she can get. I can't remember the last time she asked how I was doing. Just checked in, wanting to

Archer I haven't slept this good in what feels like years. Not even when I break down and take the Melatonin I sometimes dose myself with. It's part of the issue with working the way I do and never having a set schedule. Every once in a while, I can seem to catch up slightly, but then something happens and I have to go with a night of around four hours. It screws me up all the time. But last night, I slept better curled up next to Lis than I have in a long time. Her scent invading all of my senses. Her arms wrapped around me. It was a balm to my soul. One I didn't even know I needed. I'm still halfway angry at her family. With tears and a tight voice, she'd told me the entire story of what they've done to her for her whole life. If I ever get to meet those people, I'll let them know that the Bank of Alisa is closed. How anyone could hurt such a giving person is beyond me. "Morning." She rouses, turning over to smile sleepily at me. It

AlisaI'm having the absolute worst day. Maybe it's residual annoyance because of the phone call with my mom, perhaps it's because I'm ending the second half of a double shift that would have anyone ready to go, or maybe it's because I just don't want to be here. I had such a great time with Archer at the cookout yesterday, anything else seems to be not as exciting or completely underwhelming. Either way, anything that could've gone wrong has. I'd like nothing more than to go back to bed and start this day over again. However, glancing at my watch, I realize I only have four more hours to work. I can do this. I can do this. It's a chant inside my brain when the doors to the emergency room open and a woman with a very distended abdomen comes in breathing heavily. Looking over at Stella, I raise an eyebrow. "Want me to take this one?" She's been super emotional when pregnant people come in lately. More than likely because of wha

ArcherThe knock at my door is unexpected. I'm in the middle of taking my uniform off, having just gotten home from an almost double shift. There was an escape in Birmingham and Rambo had been called to help search. Someone had to take his place and I can always use the money so I'd volunteered. Now, as my eyes are heavy and I'm ready for bed, I don't know that it was such a good idea. The knock, though, warns me that this is going to be a much longer night than I expected it to be. Glancing through the peephole, I see Alisa staring back at me. Instead of her smiling face, it's splotchy and red. "Lis, baby, what's wrong? Is it your parents again? Do you want me to talk to them? I can't stand to see you this upset when there's a simple way for you to take care of this. Stop taking their phone calls." I know I'm preaching to the choir. It would be better for me if I'd stop taking my own parent's calls. "No." She sniffles as she comes in, wrapping her arm

AlisaThe next day, I sit at the nurse's station, wondering what I've done. What the fuck I've set into motion and wondering how in the hell I'm going to deal with it. Now that I've given voice to what's been happening, what I've been running from, I'm more nervous than ever. Actually fucking scared. I've always been the person who never wanted to rock the boat, who was willing to let things slide when they hurt me. Which is why I've let my parents get away with so much over the years. But this? I can't let it slide. Not anymore. I can't let people continue to be hurt when I know it's going on. It's not fair to anyone, especially myself. "Did you and pretty boy break up?" Stella asks as she has a seat beside me. "You look like you're involved in some heavy duty thinking. I laugh. "We didn't break up." Looking over at her, I do a double take. Overnight, her stomach has popped out. She went from a little roundness to a full on belly bump. "Holy

Archer "Look guy." I hope me using that term pisses him off. "This isn't even your jurisdiction. What the fuck right did you have to pull her over?" "It's Officer Fugate," he corrects me, before continuing on. "She failed to signal a turn." I'm real annoyed. "You got that on your dash cam?" I point to where his camera is mounted on the dash. "It wasn't on." He shrugs. "How fucking convenient for you." I smirk, shaking my head. "It's something the garage knows about, but the budget is lean over in Calvert County." He eyes me. My gaze is on Alisa who's sitting in her car with her hands locked around her steering wheel. She's white-knuckling as he and I stand out here, yelling at one another. "I'm not allowing you to ticket her without proof. Did you radio it in?" His cheeks go red, which tells me all I need to know. "You son of a bitch. You think you can intimidate her? Officers like you give the rest of us a bad name." Going in

MenacePresent TimeIt's been a hell of a day. One where I got here late in the afternoon because I had meetings. Something I've learned since taking this position a few months ago is that it's mostly meetings. It's keeping people happy and kissing a lot of ass. My legs ache to get back out on the street, to do a couple laps around downtown, or to drive a car fast. To chase a speeder with the lights bright and the siren blaring. I miss it more than I thought I would. It's close to midnight and I know Rina will be wondering where the hell I am, but I wanted to get a look at what went on today by reading the reports of the officers. This is something I do everyday so I can try to gauge how my officers are doing. It's important for me to know if there's an issue in town. If someone is a nuisance, do we need to step up patrols in certain areas? Community policing is the name of my game and I take it seriously. Reading the last report, submitted by Caleb

ArcherA Year And A Half LaterNerves make circles in my stomach as I stand outside of Laurel Springs Medical waiting for Alisa to come out. She doesn't know I'm here and, the truth is, I didn't know I was going to be either. I've been carrying this ring around in my pocket for the last year and a half of the two years we've been together. Waiting. For what, I'm not sure. The right time? The perfect moment? We live together. I could've done it a million times, but there's something different about these stars against the inky blackness of the sky. They aren't crazy bright, but they aren't muted either. They're sparkling. The perfect backdrop to the plan I have. Tonight, as I helped a woman leave a dangerous domestic violence situation, I realized I'm wasting precious and valuable time. Even after dealing with Calvert County, it didn't hit me that seconds are to be treated with the same reverence as the big events in life. Lo

Alisa"Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?" "Yes." I nod as I sit before the grand jury to give my testimony about what happened with Officer Fugate. "Please tell us when you first met him," the attorney instructs. Archer is sitting in the back row, all hot in his uniform. I don't know how he managed to be here, but he has and it's one of the sweetest things he's done for me. I'm not sure I could be doing this without his dark eyes staring back at me. "I met him when he brought a suspect into the ER. It was obvious that man had been beaten badly and it didn't happen only once. After that day, it happened on a regular basis…"ArcherUshering Lis into the station is like sending a babe into the belly of the beast. She's never been here before, doesn't know how things work, and could honestly be scared, given everything she's dealt with. I'd like to kill Officer Fugate with my own two hands.

ArcherIt's a gully washer tonight, as my instructor at the Academy always said when it rained hard. Visibility fucking sucks and I've worked more accidents tonight than I have in the previous three months. It's as if when it rains, no one can remember how to drive. It's hard to even see out of my windshield but, as I pass one of the abandoned gas stations on the outskirts of town, I see another cop stopped.They're an eyesore and, at the next city planning meeting, there's going to be a vote on demolishing them. They're a breeding ground for drug use and criminals. We've put up cameras to show what happens at night when there aren't patrols going back and forth. Since it's raining and dark, I figure I'll hit them, just to make sure nothing's going on that shouldn't be.As I round the corner. I'm surprised as fuck to see Alisa's car parked next to a Calvert County patrol SUV. She's kneeling in front of a cop who has a taser pointed at her. My heart gallops in my chest as I wonder

Archer"Chief Harrison wants to see you," Tank tells me as I make my way into the squad room. I have no idea what I've done and am immediately questioning what the hell is going on. I try to do everything by the book and I can't remember anything I might've done that was untoward. My stomach rolls as I head toward his office. I've never been called before him before and, truth be told, I never wanted to be. When I reach the door, I knock with a double tap. "C'mon in." Opening it enough so that I can sneak my head in, I glance at the Chief. "You wanted to see me, Sir?" "Yeah, come in and have a seat. There's a few things we need to discuss." I don't like the sound of this shit at all. Going in, I have a seat in the chair facing his desk and prepare to get my ass handed to me. "Officer Fugate has made a complaint and I'm bound by state laws to investigate those complaints." "I told you what happened," I defend myself. "He'

Alisa"Thank you for coming tonight," he says as we enter my apartment. "You don't have to thank me. You've saved me more times than I can count." I grin, taking my jacket off. "Come sit over here on the couch with me. You look a little stressed." "They do that to me." He waves his hand toward the street where his parents have just left. "They always make me feel like I'm not good enough, as if I should've done something different with my life." "I know how that feels." I beckon him over with a crook of my finger. "Let me take care of this tension for you, Archie. Let me show you what the fuck your parents are missing." Something about the way they don't appreciate their son has me wanting to show him just how much I do. How important he is to my life. One of the ways I can think of showing him is with my body. Fuck if that isn't exciting. Reaching for my shirt, I pull it over my head, motioning for him to do the same. In a lazy game o

ArcherI'm heading into the squad room at the station to pick up some supplies when the phone in my pocket rings loudly. There aren't many people I have set ringtones for, but this one? I hate when it rings. It's my parents. Not wanting to make whichever one this is wait, I hurriedly answer. It's always struck me as odd. They were so quick to get me out of their lives, yet they do everything together, including share a fucking cell phone. That's right, they share this phone, which means I never know who I'm going to talk to when I put it to my ear. Talk about a surprise every time I answer. "Hello?" I wait for the response. It's always delayed as if they're on some far away phone line. "Archer, it's Dad." No fucking shit. "Hey Dad," I answer, wondering if he'll continue on or if I'll have to pull the words from him like teeth. "What's going on?" "Your mom and I will be in Laurel Springs tonight. We'd like to have dinner w

AlisaHis body over mine is equal parts hot and hard in all the right places. Our naked skin slides together as he leans down to take the tight bud of my nipple in his mouth. "Yes." I tilt my head back against the pillows, allowing him full reign over my body. "Please don't stop," I beg as I rake my hands over his strong back before digging my fingers into the hair on his head. "Never gonna stop," he promises as he sucks at the prominent tip, before letting it go and moving further down. I'm still unsure of how we got our clothes off. All I know is they're in a pile next to the bed. He moves down my body, kissing my stomach before he drops onto his knees and pulls me to the edge. Separating my thighs, he props them up on his shoulders, gazing up at me with those dark eyes before he dips down. His warm mouth covers my pussy, going straight for my clit and lapping against the trembling flesh. "Archer," I moan, lifting my hips to meet his mouth. "It's been so fucki
