This Is My Stop

I woke up to Frank's silent snoring. After what happened in the elevator we somehow managed to leave everything behind and just chill. We didn't really watch the film we rented, we spent the entire evening kissing and caressing each other until we fell asleep. I didn't quite understand what was going on, too many things seemed to coincide with my dream. I got out of bed, leaving him asleep, put jeans and a hoodie on and went for a walk.
It was still raining, Chicago's weather was really unpredictable. As I walked to a couple of stores I started feeling a little down because of Sophie. When I went to visit her she seemed to be so happy and bouncy but I knew she was having a hard time. I had struggled with that too. I had managed to fight cancer, my ovaries had to be removed but... I had surgery and several sessions of chemo when I was younger and managed to cure myself, I felt really healthy now but the threat is always there. I dreaded the fact I had to go to the doctor every 8 months, to get tested and see if my uterus is fine.
A strange feeling overcame me, I sensed something was wrong. I took a cab and went to Sophie's hospital.
As I got down and ran inside, I saw no one was guarding. I was way off visiting hours but had to see her, so I came into her room anyway.
I saw Gerard sitting next to her, she was asleep.
"Gerard?"
"Aubrey, hey, what are you doing here?"
"Oh... I had a bad feeling and came to see her"
"Well... She's fine, she was feeling really sick a few hours ago. The power out freaked her out, she's terrified of darkness"
"Oh... Yeah I got held up in an elevator for that..."
"How did things go with Frank?"
"He's... not that bad"
"I knew it", Sophie whispered.
"Sophie?"
"Hi Aubrey", she was half asleep, "Frankie likes you a lot I know he's a pain sometimes but he's really sweet"
"I know, Sophie, I like him too"
"Are you going to be my aunt?"
Gerard giggled and caressed her hair.
"It's too soon to tell, we have to wait for him not to mess things up. Right, Aubrey?"
"Yeah, we'll see how things go"
"Gee, our plan worked!"
"What? What plan, Sophie?"
Gerard looked at her, she covered her mouth with a blanket.
"Oh, nothing. Giraffes and elephants, right Sophie?"
She nodded, hugged Gerard's arm and laid on her pillow.
Gerard and I caressed her hair until she fell asleep.
We kissed her goodbye and left her hugging her stuffed giraffe.
"You'll have to tell me about this plan of yours" I said as I called the elevator.
"When the time comes I will, for now just enjoy what's going on with him.

Frank's P.O.V.:
I stretched my arm looking for her, she wasn't there. Where was she?
I put jeans on and walked around the room and asked in the lobby if anyone had seen her, she was nowhere to be found.
I didn't have her phone number saved, I was fucked. As I flicked on my phone to see the time I got a text from an unknown number, "She likes you."
I called Gerard, maybe she knew where she was...
"Hey, have you seen Aubrey?"
"Yeah, she was in the hospital with me and Sophie"
"What?"
"I don't know, she came for no reason. I was making her company and stayed late, she came in out of nowhere"
"Where is she now?"
"Well I just left her off at her hotel so she must be there"
"No she isn't, I'm in her room now"
"Hahahaha! That's why she was so happy then, maybe she got something to eat. Don't worry"
"Text me her number, okay?"
"Sure, I'll try calling her too"
"Anyway, got a drummer?"
"Yeah, he's great. Actually, I wanted to ask you something, can we meet for lunch tomorrow?"
"Sure, I was planning on taking Aubrey someplace nice but yeah"
"She can come too, let's meet at Sophie's and we'll see, okay?"
"Yeah, we should get some sleep, it's late"
"Say hi to Aubrey from me, see you tomorrow"
I hung up, something wasn't right. Who had just texted me? Where was she?
____________________________________
I fell asleep with my phone in my hands, I'd been trying to reach her but there wasn't any sign of her. No one had seen her.
I turned the TV on while I dialled her number one more time.
"Anthony Decker, the raging shooter and student of NYU had escaped prison last night and allegedly fled to Chicago, his location still remains unknown but apparently suffers from manic depression and schizophrenia. On screen you'll be able to see what this man looks like, if you see him call the police. He's very dangerous"
Could it be? I mean, she went to NYU... Maybe she knew the shooter.
My thoughts were interrupted by an incoming call, it was Sophie's dad.
"Hello?"
"Frank, son, could you go check on Sophie this morning? Kate is in New York right now and I have to fly to LA in a few hours. The kids are staying with their grandparents but we don't want Sophie to be by herself"
"Sure, I'm on my way"
"Thanks, I talked to your mother, she says she's going to Orlando until Christmas so you should probably call her in a few hours"
"Sure, thanks"
I hung up, got a shower, left a note in case Aubrey stopped by and left.
The entire cab ride I was worried about her, I had a bad feeling. Both Gerard and I had tried to reach her all night, she didn't answer.
As I made my way inside the hospital, I saw the man from the news been carried into a police car. Inside, it was madness. There was blood on the floor, a carton of cigarettes and a Black Flag CD.
"We need a blood transfusion for her, she's losing too much blood"
"Anyone know her name? Any relatives?"
"No, no relatives"
"Look in her pockets for an ID or something"
"Her name is Aubrey Saenz, she's 19 and is Chilean"
What? Aubrey? I turned around and saw her bleeding out, she had her phone in her hand, she had been shot on her chest. I ran towards the paramedic.
"I know her, I'm her boyfriend"
"Well, call her family up, she's probably not going to make it"
"What? What happened to her? Why is she like that? What's wrong with her" I was crying while I gripped on his arm, a police officer carried me to another room.
I saw her bleeding body got carried inside an operating room.
