Ally POV
That son of a bitch! Thinking he could just have sex with me and then arrest me. Well he has another thing coming. I'm not going anywhere until I figure out this story. And if I have to do it by myself, fine.
I pulled up to the tattoo place. 'Blue Ink', it looked even sketchier than I imagined it. I opened up the door and walked in.
I walked up to the counter and saw a young girl sitting there and she was covered in tattoos and piercings, I was a bit shocked as the only tattoo I have is Austin's name on my ass. True story.
"Hi" I said sweetly, smiling. She looked me up and down.
"The beauty salon is across the street" She said looking back down at her phone.
"Um. No, actually I'm here for a tattoo" I lied.
"You want a cute little butterfly on your shoulder or something?"
I was a bit offended as she was being hugely stereotypical. I was about to answer her when a big, burly man walked out.
"Dina where is my 8 o'clock appointment?" He looked me up and down, "what do you want?"
I suddenly got a boost of confidence, "I want a panther" he looked shocked so I continued, "I want the paws, to be about here" I cupped my breasts, "I want the mouth and teeth, to be about here" pointing to my hip, "and I want the tail..." I slowly ran my hand down my leg, "I'll let you figure that out" I winked at him.
He looked at me surprised, "cancel my appointments" he said to Dina, the receptionist. "Follow me"
"Dina" I nodded at her, smirking at her shocked face.
We walked into his studio and I decided now was a good time to find some clues.
"So where's Earl?" I asked
"Earls not here" he said sitting down, "now give me a look at the canvass" he said leaning back, smirking.
"I need to use the bathroom" I said quickly
He sighed, "make it quick"
I walked out and started looking around. I find what looks to be Earl's office. I start looking around and I notice a picture in a frame on his desk. I look at it and gasp.
It's a picture of him and Bobby smiling at the country club playing golf.
"Oh my god" I whispered to myself. I decided to bring it with me. I was about to leave when I heard a whine from the closet. I open the door and gasp at what I saw before me.
"Jimmy!" I exclaimed
There Jimmy was, sitting in the dark closet, tied up with duct tape over his mouth. He started jumping up and down in his seat. I pulled the tape of his mouth. "Are you ok?"
"Not really no" he said as I untied the ropes.
"We have to get out of here" I said as I grabbed his arm and pulled him with me out the back door.
"Bobby is working for him, Ally" Jimmy said as we ran to the car.
"Shit!" That's why he signed off on the report. Shit.
We sat into the car and just as I was about to start it I heard a gun behind me in the backseat. I froze and turned around to see two men pointing guns at our heads.
"Why are you guys in Austin Moon's car?" The skinnier one asked us.
"I'm his ex wife"
"And you are?" He asked Jimmy
"I'm a nobody!" Jimmy exclaimed
"Well then I suggest you get out and forget you ever saw anything" he nodded rapidly and looked at me with a sorrowful look in his eyes.
"No. No. Jimmy don't do this" I hissed at him as he ran out the door.
I just looked at the two and smiled at them hoping this would help my situation.
"Now how about we go for a drink and we can tell you all the kinds of fun your hubby has been getting up to"

Austin POV
I swear to god when I get my hands on that little shit, I'll kill her myself. After taking a strangers car, I followed her. I pulled up to the place I knew she'd be. Blue ink.
I saw my car and walked up to it. Not surprised when I saw no keys or people in it. I noticed the car beside it looked very familiar and then I realised it's those bastards that I borrowed money off of. Estelle's little helpers.
I saw their trunk was open so I did some snooping. I opened it and saw a bag full of money inside. Like thousands of dollars.
I pulled out my phone and rang Ally. She picked up on the second ring.
"I am going to kill you" was the first thing she said when she picked up.
"Not before I kill you first baby"
"I am currently sat here in a strip club with your two money loaning friends and they're telling me about how much of an idiot you are"
"Uh were not actually friends" I heard one of the guys say in the background.
"Give one of the guys the phone" I said to her.
"Hello?" I heard a male voice say. Defiantly the dopey, fat one.
"Ok you let her go or else"
"Or else what?"
"Guess you'll just have to wait and see" I said as I walked into the club they were in with their big bag of money. "Put Lee back on"
"What?" I heard Ally say aggressively.
"Tell them you need to pee. I'll be in the bathroom, waiting" I could see her looking around, moving in her seat. The two idiots not noticing. "Stop looking around, just do it"
On my way to the bathroom I started throwing the money from the bag everywhere. On tables, on the floor, hell even on the strippers. I then saw the two guys notice me doing so.
"That's Estelle's money!" I heard one of them yell.
"And that's Austin Moon!" I heard the other one.
That's my cue.
I run to the women's bathroom and find Ally sitting down beside the sink.
"Come on Lee, we got to go!" I said picking up her stuff.
"See? Why can't you be like this guy all the time?" She said sounding desperate.
"What?"
"The normal Austin. Not the one wanting to arrest me! Even though he wanted to have sex with me!"
"You heard that? Lee what was I supposed to say to Dez that I couldn't do my job because I'm falling for my girl again?"
"Yes! Yes! If that's what you feel, then say it!"
I looked at her, really wanting to kiss her. We were soon pulled out of that moment when there was a loud crash outside.
"We have to go. Now." I said as I pulled her out the door and to the car.
We both got in and took off down the street.

Ally POV
"Bobby is working for Earl" I said as I looked out the window. I could feel Austin looking at me, ready to ask a thousand questions. "Don't ask me why. I just know that Earl thew this guy off a building and for whatever reason Bobby is helping him"
"Shit..." I heard Austin breathe out, for once he was lost for words.
We sat in silence for a few moments when I spoke up again, "what are we going to do?"
"We're just going to have to ask Bobby to tell us the truth" he sighed.
XXXXXXXXXX
In the morning, we arrived in front of the detective department and we asked if we could speak with Bobby.
"Hey guys!" We heard from behind us, "god never though I'd see the days when you two would be in the same room again. Wait are you guys ok?"
"We're fine, Bobby. We just wanted to talk to you" I said awkwardly smiling at him.
"Sure, come into my office"
We followed him into his office and sat down across from him.
"So, what's up guys?"
"Bobby... I know it was you that filled out the 'suicide' report. I know that you lied" his smile dropped.
"That was confidential information Ally"
"I know and I'm sorry for invading privacy but I need to know why you lied"
He stayed quiet and looked down at the table, "answer her Bobby" I heard Austin threaten beside me.
"I know you're working with Earl too. Why?"
"He was gonna kill me, Ally. He was gonna kill me, my wife, my kids when he found out I was gonna be the one who would write the report! I knew straight away it wasn't a suicide, he just kept threatening me. I had to agree to his terms"
"So he made you lie on the report?"
"He told me to make it look like a suicide" he sighed in defeat.
"So you're not helping Earl in some evil plan"
"No! Jesus, I'm just protecting my family"
Me and Austin couldn't help but smile at each other. He was innocent.
"Wait So you two thought I was some sort of criminal?"
"I knew you were innocent but her..." Austin said, laughing.
"Ally?! I walked you down the fucking aisle" he exclaimed in mock hurt.
"Come on you have to admit, it was very suspicious"
"What about you huh? I heard you're wanted" the two boys laughed.
"Oh Just Shut up ok?"
We all laughed and I felt Austin grab my hand and smile at me.
We'll be ok.
Only one more chapter and the epilogue! Xxx
