Chapter 44
I'm back, had a great time in Oz and I am sad to be back home. Hope you like this chapter ;-)
Charlie and I arrived at the station at the same time as Chief Inspector Tyler did, Charlie asked who had called him, he told her Sam did and, she had admitted to what she had done and, he was there to sort things out for her.
He asked Charlie if he could sit in on the interview with Sam, which Charlie agreed providing he said nothing because he was in compromising position being that Sam was his wife, Constable Watson pointed out that so was Charlie because I was her girlfriend so therefore she would have to conduct the interview, which Charlie reluctantly agreed to, I told Charlie we could see and hear the interview from the room next door, but we couldn't be seen because it had a one way glass partition.
Constable Watson put a tape in the recorder to record the interview and then proceeded with the interview, she introduced herself as Constable Georgina Watson, she said that also present was Chief Inspector Tony Tyler and Senior Constable Sam Tyler, both acknowledged their attendance. Constable Watson told Sam that she was under arrest for sexual assault on me and asked Sam if she understood, Sam said she did.
Constable Watson asked Sam to tell her what exactly happened. Sam explained that, she did break into our house, that she looked around to see where we both slept and went through our wardrobes to see the kind of clothes we wore and through the draws, she was about to leave, but then she heard us come back because I was unwell, so she hid under our bed, but she hadn't realised I was going to be throwing up for ages, so she had no chance of escape because Charlie was just in the living room and would have heard her leave, then Ruby came home which made it even more impossible, but then Ruby asked Charlie if they could have takeaway and Charlie agreed saying that she wasn't sure I would be eating anyway because was ill, then Ruby said that it was hardly surprising after all we had to put up with recently, because of Sam. Sam went on to say she heard Charlie tell Ruby how everything was hopefully going to be fine, because she had spoken to the Chief Inspector and he was going to come and sort things out with her, then hopefully she would leave us alone, Sam said Ruby said she hoped so for our sakes.
She then heard Charlie say to Ruby why didn't, they eat out because the smell of food would have made me more ill, and then they both left because she checked. I was sleeping soundly and Sam was watching me, she said I was obviously dreaming about Charlie because I was telling her that I loved her and would be fine. Then I started breathing erratically and then jumped, she couldn't resist the chance to pretend she was Charlie. Charlie took hold of my hand whilst we were still listening. Sam continued to say she got on the bed beside me and started stroking my face whispering there, there everything was fine which seemed to help, but then I was moaning so she thought I was enjoying what she was doing and decided to take things further, firstly she undid my blouse and whispered how beautiful I looked, then she panicked because I nearly opened my eyes, but she told me not to that I was to just enjoy what she was doing.
I asked Charlie if she was okay listening to Sam and Charlie said she wanted to hear Sam say everything she did to me.
Sam said she started kissing me on around my breasts and moved me to undo my bra so she had better access, I went to open my eyes again, Sam said she warned me not to unless I wanted to be punished, I didn't remember her saying that, then she jumped up and found something to blindfold me with and decided to handcuff me to the bed, she said she hadn't planned on trying to seduce me, it was just an opportunity that she couldn't resist. I was really uncomfortable listening to what Sam was saying, but I too, wanted to hear what she had to say.
Constable Watson asked her what happened then, Sam said she started kissing my breasts and caressing them, she said she could tell I wasn't responding to her and that I had asked her to stop, but she carried on because she wanted to prove to Charlie, that she meant what she had said previously, Constable Watson asked what that was and Sam said that she would have me one way or another. Constable Watson asked Sam to continue. Sam said she then kissed her way down my body, to the waistband of my trousers, she said she undid my trousers and put her hand inside trying to caress me, but I moving around too much, asking her to stop saying I didn't like it.
Constable Watson asked what happened next, Sam said Charlie and Ruby came back and Charlie was furious because she thought I had consented to it and, Sam confirmed I didn't it was all her. Constable Watson asked if she would have gone any further if Charlie and Ruby hadn't come back when they did, Sam said yes she would have, Constable Watson asked her if she understood that if she had gone any further she would have been facing charges for serious sexual assault, Sam said she did but she wasn't thinking irrationally, she just wanted to prove how easy it was to have me if she wanted. Constable Watson asked why me why not someone else who wasn't already in a relationship, Sam said because I was nice to her and showed her attention, that it was just friendship though, that I had never suggested I was interested in her that she knew I still loved Charlie although she didn't know it was Charlie until that night she saw us in the city when some youths were hassling us, Constable Watson asked if she didn't get enough attention at home and, Sam said no, her husband was always working and she was always on her own, the Chief Inspector looked at the floor when she said that. Sam asked if Constable Watson would pass on a message to us, Constable Watson asked what, Sam said to say she was really sorry and to tell Charlie that she was a lucky lady to have me because I was very special.
I didn't look at Charlie but I could tell she was looking at me and she squeezed my hand tighter, she then said she was sorry again for the way she reacted, I then looked at her and said she should have trusted me, I then got up to leave, Charlie asked me to stay, I told her I had a statement to write, I didn't want to reject Charlie, but it was true she should have trusted me, I mean how could I have been consenting to what Sam was doing when I was blindfolded and handcuffed to the bed, we had never done that so why would I with Sam, I was hurt and I just needed time on my own because I had just had a traumatic experience something that could have caused me problems and Charlie needed to let me deal with it, just as I was leaving the room, I saw Charlie struggling not to cry and I wanted to go to her and comfort her, but I couldn't I needed for her to understand what I was going through, I had been assaulted, which could have been a lot worse than it was, but it was still very traumatic, just the same.
I went to our office and tried to write my statement, but I couldn't all I kept thinking about was Charlie's face when she thought I had cheated on her and how she just stood there doing nothing when I asked her to help me and, it took Ruby to shout at her before she did anything.
I banged my hands on the desk in frustration when Charlie walked in and shut the door asking if she could talk to me, she sat on the chair that was next to me and was about to speak, when Chief Inspector Tyler knocked and walked in asking if he could talk to us. Charlie told him we were busy and he acknowledged that we probably had lots of stuff to talk about, that he wouldn't be long.
He sat in Charlie's chair, he asked if I had written my statement yet and I told him I had been trying to do that when Charlie walked in, because it wasn't easy, but I would do it, he said, he could imagine it being very hard, but that wasn't really what he wanted to talk about.
I asked what he wanted to talk about then, he said that obviously I heard Sam admitting to what she did today and although she has said she was sorry, he wanted to sincerely apologise also on her behalf as this was partly his fault, Charlie asked him how, he said because she was right he was hardly ever around and Sam was left alone for most of the time, Charlie said that was not an excuse to assault her girlfriend, he said he knew that but wanted to ask if I would consider not pressing charges and, he would get Sam transferred back to the city say she was home sick or something and he would make sure she never bothered us again, he said he knew he was asking a lot, but was sure that I really didn't want to write my statement that truthfully I just wanted to forget it ever happened, Charlie asked if he was serious that Sam had hurt me, and committed a very serious crime, I told Charlie this was not her call it was mine, I know she was hurt when I said it but it was true, it wasn't her call, I asked what would happen if Sam tried this again to someone else and, he said then she would have to face the consequences of her actions, but he doubted she would try anything like that again, that usually the other party was more than willing to accept Sam's advances towards them, but I wasn't and Sam knew she had taken things too far, for which she hoped I understood how sorry she was.
I asked the Chief Inspector when he wanted my answer and he said the next day if possible, I said fine and said I needed to go and think about this, Charlie said she would come with me, but I said no I needed to do this on my own. I then shut my computer down got my things together and left, I never even told Charlie I would see her at home, I just said to the Chief Inspector that he would have my decision first thing, I asked what happens to Sam in the mean time, he said she was being released into his custody, they would go back to the house she rented but with strict supervision, so that she does not come anywhere near Charlie and me, or Ruby.
