Complicated Love
Chapter 9: U.C. Life
Waking up the morning with a splitting headache, she reached over to the nightstand and slapped the annoying sound of the alarm clock that flashed 9:21 Am largely. Which meant she was late, in all the chaos of the night before did she think to set it appropriately.
Still leant over to the other side of his bed and her arm still lay heavily on the nightstand she picked up the glass of liquor to the right. Not caring what the contents of it possessed she swished it into her mouth quickly and let out a sigh of having had her thirst quenched. She looked down to the body that lie under her questioningly. Not as more of a question as to how he got here, but whether on why she kept doing this night after night, guy after guy.
Once this late night creeping was called for, but now it became more than business and a figment of pleasure for her youthful body. She teased them, taunted then, and seduced them to do her bidding at whim.
Getting off of the man that lay sleeping soundly she rolled off his bed and onto her side once more to a sitting position. Reaching over to obtain her bra that seemed to be badly wrinkled as it hung over the headboard. Next grabbing her boots, pants, and top she exited the bedroom with no second thoughts nor regrets.
Going to the bathroom she eyed her reflection in misery. Loathing at how her eyes dragged all the way to her red nose. The stained lipstick of red shade from the night before that still appeared lightly on her lips. Eyeballs dancing with red flames and she looked down to the sink bowl having finally getting disgusted with what she saw.
Turning on the hot and cold water she quickly splashed some on her face to wake her up further. Then grabbing a face towel to dry off the last remaining drops of water and quickly dressing in the clothes she wore the night before. Once finished she left the bathroom in a rush, grabbed her purse and keys then left the apartment without as so much as a goodbye or any last comments. No, "I had a goodtime last night, maybe we should do it again sometime", or any "I'd love to do this again sometime soon, how about I give you my number and we can hook up later, okay?" There were never words said in these moments of the day afterwards.
Walking out to her car in the parking lot she quickly spotted the midnight blue Honda Accent. Hopping into and pulling out to what was now a thing of the past.

Jason walked into the station cheerier than usual which had the boss a little bit more than curious for the sudden change.
"Welles! Get your ass over here, son, I need to speak with you for a moment."
Jason stopped whistling as he floated across the room to where his boss stood in front of his desk. He was too happy to even care why he had been over there in the first place. Chloe had spent the night at his house, agreed to a date with him tonight and Sarah would join them as well, she had also agreed to let him into her life a little bit. Giving him the perfect chance to let her get a look into other possibilities of happiness since she only had her daughter to seek some from before, but now she would have him.
"Yeah boss?" Jason said warmly and placing a smug grin on his face.
Quirking his eye in suspicion he played dumb to why his once dull officer seemed so cheery, he already knew. 'He finally got him some' is what the chief thought. But not allowing his mind to travel that path he went to what he had been about to ask Jason before, "Have you spoken with Officer Thomas? I haven't received any phone call from her saying she would be in late. Do you have any idea where she could be?"
"Uhhhh, no but um I'm sure she'll be here. It's normal for her to be late, she's a woman for goodness sakes, what more can you expect. She moves like a turtle when she is here anyways" Jason concluded mater of factly.
Stepping up the young woman said, "Now what was that Sparky. I move like a turtle, huh?" Smiling she patted him on the back from behind and moving past him to see the chief. Placing an apologetic smile on her face she whimpered out an amusing, "Sorry, boss but if it means anything, I showered unlike some other people I know." Looking to Jason who played goofy and began to sniff his under arms to make sure he was 'Sure'.
Laughing lightly the chief spoke up, "Well Thomas just don't let it happen again. Now you two, both back to work, I need to finish reviewing a few cases. So I'll talk with you both later about this special assignment I need you two to work on." Walking off the chief smiled and continued walking from the two.
Turning around to her, Jason said, "So why are you REALLY late, huh?"
Blushing and somewhat feeling overly guilty she looked down to say, "Finding something to wear is a bitch. I mean you can only wear certain things to work. I mean I just couldn't very well show up in any old thing. So I had to put back the hooker boots and save the leather skirt for another time."
Now throwing his own suspicios glare he replied, "Riiiiight. Well you have quite a few messages and I was told to pass that on. So if I were you I would stop by my desk to see what the urgency was of whoever it was trying to reach you so badly. You sure do know how to whip them up real good, huh" Jason said sarcastically.
Coming back with her own venom she replied, "Right, that's why your still here inhaling the air I breath because that's as close to me you'll ever get, Sparky. Now go lapping to your desk, your doggy breath is giving me a headache."
Laughing and patting her on her back as he walked off he said, "Aw you really need to do something about your upper lip if it gives you such a pain in the head. They do have procedures for your type of problem. Bye" Jason smirked walking off before she could make any further comment.
'You sly dog' she smiled as she watched Jason walk off. Rushing over to her desk to see who it was that called she sat down in her seat as she pressed the blinking light.
"Rella. It's me, look I know you don't want to talk to me but I finally found you after searching for you, for what seems like forever. Please call me. You have my number. I'll be coming to see you soon, don't push me away. I love you, Rella. I love you"
*Beep*
"Rella, hey look I gotta go, I'll call you back with what I have to tell you. I love you."
*Beep*
*Beep*

There had only been 2 messages and plenty of other written on note pads about the caller. In only a short period of 2 days had so many messages piled high on her desk from him.
Looking at one note harshly that had been written by him. Which meant he was in town and had stopped by earlier or so. Since it was the one on top which read:
Rell, I know I am the last person you want to speak to
But I do love you and please don't ever forget what we
Shared, I need to speak with you ASAP. I'll call you later
Please be expecting me because I love you.
Always and Forever Yours,
Shawn D.
Letting only a tear escape her eye she balled up the piece of paper.
"No more will you ever hurt me, Shawn, no more. I don't care how much you still love me….or how very much I'm still in love with you" she said with a balled fist in power.
Going into some paper work to engage her mind into, no longer had it been 5 minutes before she heard a secretary say, "Your looking for Ariel Thomas? I believe officer Thomas is here, can you wait just a sec?"
