The next day in briefing
"Same pairs as yesterday. Sheelagh and Des your still in the area car but today your working not sight seeing. OK. Off you go" assigned Gina quickly clearly got better things to be doing. Everyone went soon it was nearly the end of a hard shift due to how warm it was and everyone was in the canteen. A lot of them including Sheelagh were suffering from sun burn. Which didn't help with the pain of the bruises she had. Sheelagh and Des had already arrested four shoplifters and a burglar.
"So Sheelagh what made you come to England?" asked Kerry "Me husband." Answered Sheelagh. Everyone laughed at this comment apart from Des. Which Sheelagh noticed but chose to ignore.
"Why he a control freak?" Laughed Honey.
"No, he just fancied moving. that's all." Stated Sheelagh trying to get away from the idea honey had said even though it was true.
"He sounds controlling to me" Des Said stoney face.
"Huh, what's that supposed to mean?" Questioned Sheelagh. Sheelagh was worried Des knew about Patrick's little business "Nothing. So where bout's do you live?" Des asked realising Sheelagh didn't want to talk about it.
"Near the Haper fields." Replied Sheelagh glad the conversation had moved on.
"Near that big hotel thing, with the swimming poll and the lake" gestured Honey.
"Its not a hotel it's a house" corrected Reg "You joking its massive. I bet the people who live there have a few quid" Speculated Honey.
"Yeah and some spare. Have you seen who lives there?" Kerry continued for Honey.
"Sort of" Hesitated Sheelagh. At that very moment Sheelaghs phone started ringing, she got up and answered it. It was Patrick.
"Hello" answered Sheelagh "What you doing?" question Patrick "Working. Why?" Sheelagh said "You sure" harassed Patrick "Yes" argued Sheelagh "Go shopping after work I want a bbq tonight. A few of me mates are coming." demanded Patrick.
"How many?" Sheelagh mumbled.
"30 at the moment. I tell you what why don't you bring your friends from work I can see who your with then cant I." insisted Patrick.
"You sure" claimed Sheelagh in shock.
"Yeah, Cya later bitch" Patrick laughed.
"Bye." Patrick put the phone down leaving Sheelagh feeling very confused. Sheelagh went back into the canteen and sat back down at the table.
"You alright you look a bit ..well.. Erm… scared?" informed Des concerned by her expression on her face.
"No im fine. Erm do you all wanna come for a bbq at mine tonight." dictated Sheelagh "Yeah" everyone cheered "Wont Patrick mind?" wondered Des.
"It was his idea. He wants to get to know you all" claimed Sheelagh "Where do you live?" Said Reg always thinking ahead.
"Boxly manor on Wright street. You wont miss it. Cya later I gotta go shopping." Smiled Sheelagh. Sheelagh left as the shift had now finished.
She went shopping and came home to the kids and Patrick setting stuff up.
"Hello" Smiled Patrick.
"Hey, will you give me a lift carrying the beer." trembled Sheelagh unsure of what he would do.
"Yes" Patrick sang jolly. Patrick then grabbed her and violently slammed her against the wall kissing her "Oww!" cringed Sheelagh.
"Sorry. Listen no messing tonight or you'll gat what you got last night. You wouldn't want that would you." said Patrick his face a picture of sarcasm. They continued getting ready and a hour and an half later they were done. Sheelagh had got changed and was sitting in the back garden with the children when the door bell rang.
"get that will you Siobhan" Organised Sheelagh. Siobhan went to the door and opened it to find a few adults with a lost look on their faces.
"Can I help you?" Helped Siobhan politely.
"Hi erm were looking for boxy manor. I don't suppose you know where it is do you?" Stammered Cameron a little embarrassed he had to be asking.
"This is it" Siobhan informed indicating at the house she was stood in.
"are you sure this is where Sheelagh said?" Gary asked Cameron confused by the size of the house.
"yeah I heard her too" Answered Kerry confused as well,
"You must work with my mum?" Siobhan stated catching on to what they were talking about. Sheelagh noticed that Siobhan had been a long time at the door so went to see what was wrong "everything alright love? Oh hi guys. Come in." Sheelagh laughed when she saw who was at the door.
"When you said you had sort of seen who lived here I get what you mean now." Cameron joked.
"Well I thought it would be a surprise. Shocked?" laughed Sheelagh "Just a bit." Gary answered breathlessly.
"Drink anyone?" interrupted Siobhan "A bear will do me if you got one." Enquired Cameron "Plenty" informed Siobhan "Same here" Said Gary "Me too" continued Honey and Kerry pretty much at the same time.
"Four beers coming right up" Siobhan cheerfully said. Siobhan went off into the kitchen followed by Declan.
"You never said you had kids" Honey commented "Yeah I got three. That was Siobhan, and that's Connor my eldest messing with the music"
"Ha ha you're locked in. ha ha ha" Shouted Declan from in the kitchen "And that's me youngest Declan fighting with the fridge door. Excuse me a minute." Sheelagh walked off yelling "Dec what've I told you about locking people in the fridge. Its dangerous"
"look at this place it's a palace" remarked Cameron spinning round looking at the high ceilings.
"I know I bet that chandelier cost more than my house" Kerry indicated copying Cameron.
"Impressive in it." Patrick shouted from the stairs. "You must be Sheelaghs colleagues. I'm Patrick. Come on through" They went into the backgarden.
"yeah I'm Cameron"
"Kerry"
"Honey"
"Gary"
"Nice to meet you all." Patrick said. They were all talking when Sheelagh came through with the beers. The guests were arriving now quickly, all of them getting beers and joining in the party, about three hours later about 70 people were there and more were still turning up. This was when des arrived, which Sheelagh was very pleased about cause she got on well with him.
"Sorry I'm late but I had a lot of paper work to do cause of your excellent detective skills." Des apoligised.
"Thanks. Its alright. Beer?" Reassured Sheelagh "err yeah go on then" spoke Des. They walked into the kitchen, Patrick was watching them closely.
"Nice place you got here and if you don't mind me saying you look fab." Continued Des blushing slightly.
"You don't look too bad yourself." Complemented Sheelagh.. Patrick came in and put his arms round Sheelagh's waist.
"Who are you?" Sneered Patrick "Oh im des, I work with sheelagh" Answered Des a bit taken back by his tone.
"Des what"
"Taviner. Why"
"just wondered." Patrick kissed sheelagh on the head then led her outside. Des could see how uncomfey Sheelagh was with him. He just wanted to grab hold of her and free her from Patrick but he knew Sheelagh would never want him. The party continued deep into the night then carried on further into the morning, but now everyone was extremely drunk and the music had gone considerably louder. Des and Sheelagh were stood in the corner near the pool talking.
"its boiling. Look at me im sweating" Belched Des. This was said extremely slurred "Well why don't you cool off in the pool" Suggested Sheelagh. This was even more slurred.
"only if you join me"
"Nah I think ill pass on that mate" Giggled Sheelagh "Don't care if you want to or not." With that des jumped into the pool dragging sheelagh in with him. But sheelagh pulled Gary who pulled Gabriel who pulled Amber and they all landed with a massive splash. The whole party erupted into laughter. Many people jumping in to join them. Everyone thought it was funny apart from Patrick. Who looked at sheelagh with his eyes ablaze which she had definitely noticed. Everyone went back to partying and sheelagh scrambled out of the pool. Her cotton white dress had gone see through and was revealing her sexy underwear and dark patches on her skin which could be only just made out as bruises in the light.
"Opps!" Des Laughed at the destruction he had caused. He splashed sheelagh more. Sheelagh laughed politely but couldn't get Patrick's face out of her sight. Patrick was slowly moving towards sheelagh.
"Go and get changed you Slut" Whispered Patrick spitting slightly. This comment was heard clearly by des making him feel so helpless. Sheelagh did exactly as she was told as she knew she was in enough trouble with him already. The party then continued happily till around 5:30 when the final guest were leaving. Patrick walked into the kitchen to where sheelagh was cleaning up. He stopped in front of her and slapped her till she fell to the floor.
"What did I tell you about making a show of yourself? Hey? Do you ever listen top me? I work hard to provide for this family and all you do is show me up on one of the biggest deals of my career." Blasted Patrick. Patrick kicked her. "What have you got to say for yourself"
"Im sorry" Whispered Sheelagh in floods of tears. Patrick threw a stack of plates at her.
"Well sorry aint good enough. By the way your sleeping with slumpy tonight he's staying in the spare bed with you. I promised him?" thundered Patrick "What?" screeched Sheelagh "You heard me! Now get upstairs." Demanded Patrick "Please Patrick, im really sorry don't make me do this." begged Sheelagh "I SAID GET UPSTAIRS NOW." Patrick picked her up and threw her across the room. Sheelagh stood up and then went to bed to be raped and hurt by her husbands mate.
