Love ISN'T real (A Valeska Story) *UNDERGOING EDITING*

Oops~!

    I was banging on the front door of Harvey's apartment. Then I lifted both arms and starting banging louder. He opened the door.

      "Jesus Christ- What-" then he froze and stared at me. "Laura...why are you-" he started.

    "Let me in." I said quickly. He looked out into both ends of the hall. Then he stepped back.

"Nah. You can tell me right here."

    "What's going on?" He asked. He took forever to close the door.

    "They're going to attack the precinct." I stammered. His eyebrows furrowed.

     "What-?" He asked all confused. I didn't pay attention to his lazy outfit. (Being only a sweat-stained gray t-shirt and blue stripy shorts...)

   "The Arkham escapists...or, what's left of them- They're going to attack, just listen to me!" He rolled his eyes.

   "Alright, how much have you had to drink? I can smell the whiskey off of your hair." Damn you, Jerome..

    "I'm not drunk! I just...ran into someone. Please, Dad. I know everything, including who broke them out of Arkham. His name is Th-" I tried to finish, but then Oswald appeared out of nowhere.

    "Detective Bullock. I'm so sorry for my friend's.....unexpected appearance, but she is extremely drunk and under the influence. I'd say she's starting to pick up on your bad habits." He said, smiling softly.

    Harvey stared at him and then glanced at me.

    "Yeah. Whatever. You two get the hell out of here before I turn you both in, its too damn late for this." Harvey muttered, slowly wobbling back into his apartment and closing the door behind him. I turned to Oswald.

    "What the hell are you doing?" I asked, shoving him by the shoulder. He smiled sweetly at me.

   "I can help you." He said.

  "Why would you want to help me after-"

    "Uh, uh, uh." He tuts. I gasped, jaw to the floor. "I have a plan. We need to get out of here though." He said. I rolled my eyes.

   "Whatever, but I need to be back soon, no one knows I'm gone. I had to knock someone out and when he wakes up and sees that I'm gone, he'll know."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We were sitting in Oswald's new club, in a booth. "Get her some scotch." He said to one of his employees.

  "Wine. I want wine." I said.

   "Very well then."

    "So what's the plan?" I asked.

      "I've seen the news, Laura. You're friend has his interests set on you, and you only. He doesn't want money, power, or whatever it is. He wants you. That being said, you're the only thing that can distract him from what he's doing." He said, putting his hands together and resting them on the table. I tilted my head.

   "But they're going to bring me with them when they go to the GCPD." I started. He exclaimed.

"Ah!" Then he pointed at me.

"THAT'S where you come in. Your beauty will distract everything in Mr.Valeska. He'll see right through that uniform, assuming you will wear one so no one suspects it's you."

    "Okay...what do I do?" I was honestly interested in his plan.

    "My guess is he's going for the new commissioner. You should be able to drag him into the locker rooms for a few moments. Then I'll have my henchmen jump in there and stop their doing." Then I smiled mischievously.

   "You smart Penguin." He smiled back a bit flustered.

"Well-"

    "Wait, why would you want to stop them from raiding the GCPD?" I asked. He stared for a second and then leaned forward.

   "I want Galavan. Victor told me he's not the best when it comes to treating women. You, specifically. I don't appreciate my friends being hurt. I'll paint the walls red with his blood." He said lowly but in a shaky voice. I could see the anger in his eyes.

   "Well," I started, then gently held his hand.

      "Mr. Cobblepot. I certainly appreciate your loyalty." I smiled. He calmed down and sat up with a cocky smile.

    "I am a genius, after all."

    "I need to get back. It's getting late." I said. He nodded and had one of his workers walk me out.

Later, I snuck back into my room, only to be staring down at a revolver. "Do you think I'm stupid?" Theo asked. Tabitha was standing right next to him, holding her whip.

Aw, fuck.

    "Theo, I-" I started but then he cut me off.

    "Just how many people did you open that slutty little mouth of yours to?" He asked.

    Ooh, Jerome AND Victor would be mad.

    I shook my head. "I didn't tell anyone! Even if I did, they wouldn't believe me." I claimed.

    "And why not? Aren't you the lover of their most wanted fugitive? Start talking sense, or I'll beat it into you." He said in a low, threatening voice. I sighed and sat down.

    "No. I'm not. But I have a history with lying. I'd only lie to Jim to get out of his bullshit system." Then he smirked and lowered his gun, walking up to me and leaning down. His face inches away from mine.

    "And how do I know that you aren't lying to me?" He asked. I stayed quiet and looked away. Before I knew it, Tabitha left the room, locking the door behind her.

    Theo grabbed me by my hair and took his tie off.

   "Ow! What the-?!" I started to yell but then he tied his tie around my head, covering my mouth. I could only mumble. He took his blazer off and threw me to the ground.

   "I am your boss. Your master." He said, then he kneeled down and pulled a zip tie out of his pocket, locking my wrists together.

     "I saved you. Took you in like a child. And this is how you repay me?" He continued. The zip tie was so tight around my wrist, I could start bleeding.

    Where the hell is Victor?! I screamed into the tie, but my words still came out muffled and quiet.

    "VICTOR!! VICTOR!!!!" I cried. Theo smirked and took his belt off.

    "Now, you'll know to respect me, Pet." Then his arm swung and the belt flew at me.

    Everything went black.
