Steph's POV
I have never been this upset in my entire life. I slammed the door and left Carlos in the interrogation room. Tank came flying through the door and headed straight for me.
"We have to let him out." He looked at me with pleading eyes.
"Hell no, we are not letting him out and nobody had better let him out before I come back."
"Where are you going?" Tank asked as he stepped in front of me.
I gave him a death glare, "Where the hell do you think I'm going?" I pushed past him. "I'm going to see the other party in this whole cluster fuck of a situation."
He grabbed my arm, "I can't let you do that."
I reached in my purse and slid my stun gun into my hand. I spun around and caught him on the arm. "I don't remember asking for your permission." I said as he fell to the floor.
The police in the room were rolling on the floor with laughter at what just transpired.
Bobby made his way over shaking his head at me while Les was trying to corner me.
"Back off, Les." I snarled. "I'm not in the mood."
He rolled his eyes. "I'll let you go but you have to take me with you."
I thought about it for a minute. "Just stay out of my way."
I've got a brand new attitude,
And I'm gonna wear it tonight
I'm gonna get in trouble
I wanna start a fight
Na na na na na na na na
I wanna start a fight
Na na na na na na na na
I wanna start a fight
I arrived at St. Francis a little while later with Lester in tow. We made our way to the ER Department.
I turned the corner and ran right into Grandma Bella, "YOU!!!!!" she snarled.
"Me, what did I do?"
"You drove my Joseph to do bad things. You are nothing but a two bit hussy. I'm going to put the eye on you."
"Take your Italian voo-doo and shove it up your ass." I flipped her off and she sucked in air. "You crazy old bat."
"Ungrateful little tramp. You do not deserve a man as good as Joseph. I'm getting a vision." She places her hand to her head and starts mumbling things about my eggs drying up.
"I don't have time for your visions and probably you'd prefer to have one of someone else at this point in time you crazy old cow. Just be thankful that my eggs won't be frolicking with the sperm in your family any longer," I spit at her before sidestepping her and continuing down the hall.
I snuck by the nurses and made my way into the Emergency room. It was easy to find Joe as Carl was standing outside his room. His eyes got big when he saw me approach.
"What are you doing here?" Carl looked nervous.
"I need to talk to Joe." I batted my eyes at him.
"Steph letting you go in there would be like Batman calling in The Penguin for back up. I don't think it's a good idea, no."
"I'm sure whatever transpires in that room will make someone rich down at the station." I winked at him.
"I am so going to get my ass chewed out for this." He sighed as he opened the door to Joe's room. "Keep your hands to yourself, understood?"
I nodded my head and Lester and Carl followed me into the room. Joe was mumbling in his sleep and his left arm was cuffed to the bed.
I kicked the bottom of the bed and he started to stir. He blinked his eyes then focused on me.
"Cupcake." He slurred.
"Joe." I tried to keep the menace out of my voice.
He tried to reach for me and realized that he was cuffed. "What the fuck? You don't do kinky so what are these for?"
"You don't remember?" I sneered
"I think I'd remember you handcuffing me to the bed. Now come take these off." He looked around the room and finally noticed Lester and Carl.
"What the hell is he doing here?" he pointed to Lester.
"He's here to make sure I don't kill your sorry ass." Joe's eyes snapped to mine.
He seemed to be coming out of his stupor. "Why would you do that?"
"Oh, I don't know. You're an asshole who treated me like shit, belittled me, and hit me. Then when I moved on with my life you tried to have my boyfriend killed."
He sucked in air and started backpedaling. "Steph, I didn't do that. You have to believe me. I've been set up."
I held up my hand to stop him. "I don't want to hear it, Joe. They arrested you for it. Carlos beat the shit out of you for it. I just wanted to tell you that I hate you." I had tears in my eyes but they were tears of anger not tears of sadness. "You are dead to me. After this moment you will never see me again. I will never forgive you for trying to ruin my happiness."
Then somebody's gonna die!
I'm going to get in trouble,
My ex will start a fight
Na na na na na na na na
He's gonna to start a fight
Na na na na na na na na
We're all gonna get in a fight
I turned and made my way to the door as I touched the handle I heard him mumble.
"I should have shot him myself."
I flung myself at Joe hitting every inch of him I could lay my hands on. His alarms started to go off as Lester tried to pull me off.
Lester finally grabbed me around the waist and pulled me back as the doctors and nurses came in and started working on Joe again. Lester let me go and we started walking towards the door when Grandma Bella started screeching.
"She assaulted my Grandson. I want her arrested. He was handcuffed to a bed and she hit him."
Lester swore under his breath then said, "Here we go again."
Carl walked towards us shaking his head. "I'm sorry."
I turned around placing my hands behind my back and a smug smile on my face.
"Stephanie Plum, you are under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. …"
Carl called another officer to Joe's room so he could transport me down town. Once we arrived at the station he took me straight to the interrogation room they had Carlos in.
Carl smirked as he opened the door, "Figured it be cheaper to house you two together."
Carlos stood up as I came into the room. "What the hell happened?" he yelled as he rushed towards me.
Carl reached down and removed my cuffs before leaving the room.
I looked at Carlos and shrugged my shoulders. "You didn't think you were the only one that wanted to kick his ass did you?" I wrapped my arms around his neck. "Besides I had them hold you because I figured if we were both going to be in here at least we should be in here together."
"BABE!!!!"
Ba da da da da da pffftt
