Cruel Love (Gotham/Oswald CobblepotFanFic)

Cobblepot's Enemy: 54- Jail

Ching Ching Ching sounded as a inmate fan a cup along the jail bars of the tiny cell next to my own. I watched GCPD officers work and Harvey finally brought a meal to me. It was day old chicken soup and coffee ...perfect.

He set it down beside me on the metal bed and looked down at me "I'm sorry." I became even more silent "Not for Cobblepot. For you, who would habe thought you guys woukd go from hating to pregnancy?" He tried to joke. I wasnt in the mood for joking today.

Apparently, Gordon had stabbed and brought down a criminal called the Pyg. He was being praised by everyone, Harvey gave in his badge and wasn't a cop anymore, he only went to arrest me so I would go willingly.

Harvey gave up and left, as he closed the cell back I said "Its a sad day when your close friend has to arrest you" in a cracked voice, he stopped and looked at me through the bars. I could tell he was sorry, and he could tell I probably couldn't trust him anymore if he thinks I killed a cop.

He left and I played with the soup setting the coffee to the side, I put a hand to my stomach and imagined a little baby in there. I gave a sad smile "I think we are both up shit creek without a paddle, kiddo" I told it.

I finished the soup and put the bowl down, I curled up on the metal bed and watched as Gordon walked towards me, I glared at him as he opened the cell door.

"Come on."

I didnt budge. "Where are you taking me now? Blackgate?" I asked, he shook his head and walked in the cell.

"No. Arkham."

I sat strqight up on the metal bed "What?!" I said and put a hand to my stomach "Why that place?"

"The judge found your ...psychiatrist papers from a old trial case of yours in Star City. Apparently, split personality was the decision."

I stared at him "You had the trial shit ..without me? I couldnt even defend myself?"

"Face it Nessita. You no longer have Sal to defend you and Carmine cannot come up here to defend you. You are on your own." He grabbed my hand and slapped a cuff on it. I let him grab my other and I closed my eyes.

"I have never been to Arkham."

"Then I welcome you to hell."

Everything was happening so fast. Ina blink of a eye I was with Oswald telling him about the pregnancy test and the next thing I know I am being arrested and sent to Aekham the very next day.

I should've just stayed in Star.

After changing into the inmate uniform shit, I was brought to a huge thing in a cage. Where a lot of inmates were. The cuffs were taken off and I went to sit down in the back of the room.

I brought me knees up to my chest as I stared at all the insane people.

Someone slid into the chair across from me and reached their hand out to me "I dont think we have officially met yet. I am Jerome."

His face was ...stitched up. He looked like a mad man, I just stared at him for a moment before shaking his hand "Nessita Maroni."

He laughed "Oh. I know who you are. You left quite the mark in Star City" he leaned forward and whispered "Inmate talk, you know. You drove one man crazy with electricity and you killed a man by slicing his throat with your fingernails" he whistled "Nice work if I do say so myself."

"Star City inamtes come here too?"

He shook his head "Not all of them. Just one, he knows about you and looks scared to even mention you" he said as he checked his nails "I also know you are Oswald Cobblepots little lover" a grin stretched aceoss his face.

"We are not lovers."

"Then you are single? 'Cause I feel like we could ...get to know each other better" he said and touched my arm. I pulled my arm away from him.

"Touch me again and I will have you begging me to not kill you."

He made a purring sound "Ooh. Feisty. Tell me, Ms. Maroni, do you think you can survive Arkham?" he said and grinned "We are as rough and tough as can be. Shall we turn that frown upside down?"

"I would rather stick my foot up your ass."

He pouted "Is that anyway to treat a new friend?"

"We are not friends. We will never be friends."

"Lovers?" He chuckled and kicked his feet up onto the table "Cobblepot ...he sounds like a such a little ...bird man" he said with a chuckle "Tell me, is he insane?"

"Better to be a little bird man than a lunatic."

He put a hand to his heart "Are we at the compliment stage of our relationship? My turn. Hmm" he scanned my face and what he could see of my body "Let's see, I like how that shirt fits your body, tight and-"

I grabbed the nearest object -a tiny full of crayons- and dumped everything in it out before holding the sharp part of the tin to his neck.

"Listen here. Nobody talks about my body" I said in a deep dark tone and tightened my grip on his shoulder "Only Penguin. Me and him are not lovers. We are so much more. Nobody can compete with him."

He grinned "Just give me a shot. I betcha I'm a better man, with a lower kill count" He laughed as I pushed the tin further into his neck and as two make guards grabbed me I noticed blood running down from his neck.

"You are just as crazy as I am Ms. Maroni! We would make quite a team!" He shouted as a guard pushed him down and told him to shut up.

I was shaking as the guards toted me back to my room. Jerome Valeska has just opened war. He doesn't even know what all had happened in Star City. But, he will.

I know it is a little short/fast paced-ish but I was eager to get to this chapter because of the next chapter. Nessita might be pregnant but she can kick ass.
