Loving Annabelle

Chapter 16

Simone rushed in to find that Colins was standing by Annabelle's door. 

"Colins we have a problem. Immaculata, arrested Annabelle for murder. I need your help to prove that she is innocent." Simone pleaded.

"How can we prove that she's innocent?" Colins asked.

"They said the gun is Annabelle's which is true but if Cat got a hold of the gun we need the proof. Cameras from the robbery. To show that it wasn't Annabelle then also we need to figure out where Annabelle was at the time of Sandra Lockhart's murder." Simone said.

"That's easy Annabelle was with me. She got the message from Sandra that she was leaving the country. She was upset. I never seen her smile since then until you came around." Colins said.

"Well we need to get Annabelle out of jail." Simone said. 

"Let's go." Colins said.

Colins followed Simone out into the parking lot and got into her car. Driving to the police station Colins sighed. "What if they don't believe me?"

"Your going to have to try." Simone said. "I can't let Annabelle go to jail for something she didn't do."

"I will do my best." Colins said as she pulled into a parking spot. "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to make sure that Immaculata didn't know it was me that was there with Annabelle." Simone said.

Simone sat in the car as she waiting for Colins to go inside. She figured she would wait for a few before she headed in. Simone lit a cigarette up. Standing outside she walked back and forth smoking it. She was scared to find out that Immaculata knew it was her with Annabelle.

Putting the cigarette out she headed inside. Her heart was thumping fast. Walking towards Immaculata's office she knocked on the door. 

"Come in." Immaculata said from the other side.

Simone walked in. "Hey. I heard Annabelle was arrested."

"Yes but now apparently we got a friend of hers saying that they were together the night of the murder." Immaculata said.

"What if she is innocent?" Simone said.

"There's no way she can be." Immaculata said.

"Look I don't want to argue with you." Simone said.

"Then tell me what you think?" Immaculata said.

"I think it was Cat. Cat was the one that did it. There's no way." Simone stopped.

"You think Annabelle is innocent?" Immaculata said.

"Yes I think that she is." Simone said.

"Look I have no choice but to let her go. So do us a favor and continue to be with her. Find out if she's hiding anything." Immaculata said.

"I will do my best." Simone said.

Simone walked out of Immaculata's  office. Colins was walking out with Annabelle. Simone stood her distance until they got outside. Then she headed to Colins car. She got into the backseat. 

"Colins, take us to my house." Simone said.

"What about my clothes?" Annabelle said. 

"Have Colins bring some by. I want you to stay with me at my place. You know they are going to have your place bugged looking for any reason to arrest you again." Simone said.

"True. Colins can you do that?" Annabelle asked.

"I sure can." Colins smiled.

Colins drove to Annabelle's house. Once there she dropped them off as they headed inside.  Annabelle pulled Simone into a kiss. Moaning Simone felt as Annabelle lifted her shirt off. Smiling she was soon naked and Annabelle pulled her onto the floor. They made love again. Deep passionate love making. Simone felt as Annabelle was between her legs. The licking was amazing and again Simone gave in. Just then was when the door opened and there stood Immaculata.

"Simone!" Immaculata shouted.

Annabelle scooted away and pulled a sheet up around her. Simone stood up quickly getting dressed. 

"How could you do this?" Immaculata raised her eyebrows.

"I love her." Simone blurted out.

"How can you love a criminal?" Immaculata asked.

"She's not a criminal. I love Annabelle Tillman." Simone said.

"I love you too Simone." Annabelle spoke up.

Immaculata sighed. "Your off the case! Your no longer an officer. I can't have someone working for me that's going to go sleeping with the enemy."

"She's not the enemy. She was honest with you. She's been honest with me." Simone smiled.

"I don't know why you have to be this way Simone. I took you in. I took care of you." Immaculata said.

"You don't like the fact I'm gay. I find happiness with Annabelle and just because you think she's a criminal means I can't love her. I don't want to work for you anyway. So just get the fuck out of my house." Simone spoke with anger. 

Immaculata turned on her heels and stormed out. Simone winced as the door slammed shut.
