Waterloo

 

Eddie C and his wife,Lt. Sissy Van Buren stood in the hallway enjoying a sweet kiss...It was early ,none of the other detectives had arrived yet...

He had brought her a tumbler of coffee and a blueberry muffin.

"Baby,I'm so sorry about last night."said Sissy...

''Siss, you're a cop..I knew that when I met you... Just arrest this mope soon so that I can get some more of that good stuff and not be interrupted .."he whispered....

His voice made Sissy moist and extremely turned on....

"You most certainly can baby..all night..." she said seductively.

"Well alright"he said and pulled her to him and kissed her passionately....

After about five minutes they both broke their embrace...

"We'd better stop this before we get too excited..."she said breathlessly and smiling weakly..She was already excited....

"I'm already too damn excited...."he said.

"Thanks for the coffee and the muffin.." she said..

He kissed her again...

"You're welcome babes...Please hurry up and bust this mope.."he said and laughed...

 

"I will baby...But whether I do or not...I'm giving you something un-interrupted tonight.." she said and smiled that sexy smile of hers...

"Damn girl that's what I like to hear...Let me get out of here and get to work before I can't leave."he said and kissed her again and left...

Sissy walked into her office, closed the door and leaned against the wall...She took several deep breaths ,Trying to get herself together....and sighed...

II-

 Detective Angie Belton sat in the conference room that morning...Officer Johnny Little walked in and passed her a tumbler of coffee...

"Gee Thank You Johnny....You know that I like Hazelnut Cream and four sugars...My you are observant." she said.

"Yeah,I am..."he said.

Angie said nothing else..She sipped her coffee...

"I uh heard you've been uh on the street working the case huh?" he said...

"Yes,I have....Looks like our killer may have slipped up...Made  a mistake...The mistake I was waiting for." she said.

"Ohhh? and what was that?" he asked..

"The Port Street Bath house...The manager there...The night manager said that after we left...He found a watch near the shower..." He called us yesterday..

"A watch?" said Officer Little..

"Yeah..A wrist watch...By the way..Where is yours? Didn't you wear a wrist watch? See? I notice things about you too."she said smiling sweetly...

"Uh who needs a watch? My phone gives me the time." he said.

"Yeah you're right...Anyway..I told him to put the watch in a plastic baggy and hold it and that somebody would be coming to get it.." she said.

"Well let's me and you go and get it" he said.

"No need for that...The other detectives will be in in just a few hours...They can go get it...It's not like he's going anywhere...I'm tired Johnny..I've been working around the clock, non-stop on this case...It's starting to eat away at me again...I didn't want that to happen...I'm going back to Internal Affairs..This is their headache now.." she said ,all the while staring at him...

He looked a bit disappointed..

She continued...

"Carlotta is very smart, so is Rico,my husband,Jimmy , Duke,Sirena, Hazel and Hop...They've caught many many criminals...They'll eventually catch this guy...The manager said that the watch looks like it has a fingerprint smudge on it...If that's so..They'll have their man..." she said.

"Oh really?  Well you know..Anybody might have dropped a watch...A lot of people take baths in that place." he said.

"How do you know?" she asked ,looking at him hard....

"I-I-I don't..I mean..I'm not gay.....I just figure... A lot of people come through there..."he said.

"Well whether or not...If that fingerprint doesn't belong to any of the people we cleared and we interviewed everybody who bathed there that day..Then more than likely...That's our killer."said Angie..

"Think so huh?" he said.

"I don't care one way or the other...I'm done after this week..I'm going back to IA."she said.

"Oh...Sorry to hear that." he said and left....

Sissy and I entered the room just then...

"You think he went for it?" she asked..

"Oh yeah...He went for it...I'm bettin he's headed for his car now.." she said.

 "That GPS Tracking device Sharon put on his car will track him....I'm betting he heads right for the Port Street Bathhouse." I said...

"Well..Let's give him a few minutes and head over..."said Sissy...

III-

 The Port Street Bathhouse was empty....Surprisingly...No one was bathing today....The sound of footsteps could be heard entering into the shower area....There was quiet, then the footsteps headed to the managers office...

The door quietly opened....and the hulking figure quietly walked over to the drawer...Jimmied the lock and opened the drawer up....

Suddenly the light came on....

"Looking for something Officer Little?" came the voice of Detective Tony Hopkins...

 He was startled....

"I'll bet you were looking for this" said Dr.Hazel Hunter -Baylor who tossed the watch to him..

He looked stunned...

My wife, Detective Carlotta Rodriguez-Wallace walked up just then...

"It's okay...It got wet...There was no fingerprints on it...Angie pulled your leg..but the fact that you're here, proves you are guilty and that you had something to hide.." she said.

"No it doesn't..It doesn't prove anything." he said..

"Oh but it does my man...See..We got your prints off of some torn latex that was on two of the victims....We couldn't find you because we were busy looking for criminals...We started looking at civil servants and you came right up both times...Positive match."said Tyriq...

"Here is where it gets cute...We got you on film at every crime scene...Every single one...Including last night....And the ones from 2010...No other cop we interviewed was at every single one..Just you.You made it your business to be at every one to take a look at your work, to see what the detectives found." said Sirena..

"It gets better Johnny...You notice you haven't seen me and my wife around for a few days? That's because we were in San-Francisco...We had a nice long talk with the Chief of Detectives out there...Seems like you failed to mention to anybody here that before you became a cop you were in fact a suspect in three murders in California that were never solved...Three people who could identify you refused because they didn't want to out themselves as gay..That was then...They were more than willing to point you out while Angie and I were there..." said Jimmy....

"Oh yeah....and we got you on tape at a bar,a gay bar just four blocks from the scene of our last murder last night in the bar, trying to buy sex from our latest victim..You followed him and you strangled him...Plus we got a couple of people who drew composite sketches that all strangely look like you Johnny..."said Duke, who calmly disarmed him of his service revolver and his back up piece.."I never pictured you for gay."he said.

"I'm not Gay...I'm...I'm not...I-I just experimented a little, that's all...I'm not Gay." he said.

"We talked to several of your ex-girlfriends and that's not what they say.They told us you had intimacy problems and all of them strongly suspected that yo were more attracted to men than women..You've been fighting it for a long time haven't you."said Duke almost sympathetically...

"No...No....I'm not Gay...I'm not Gay...I'm...I'm not...I-I just experimented a little, that's all...I'm not Gay. I-I-I- like women.." he said.

"Can I tell him?" asked Carlotta...

"You're the primary Top."laughed Tyriq..

"We caught you on the traffic cam in that same rental car ,coming to and leaving the scene of three of the murders...We got the plate number and got a positive ID of you.." she said..

Angie walked in then....

"And last but certainly not least....We got a positive handwriting match from each of the letters you sent me and the detective you sent letters to in San-Francisco...We got the match from your detectives exam too..The one you failed....I remember now..Lt. Lockwood was one of the detectives who administered the test...I was his girlfriend then...I remembered..  You made the mistake that so many people like you make...You over-played your hand...You should've quit while you were ahead."laughed Angie as Carlotta passed her the handcuffs and she placed them on him...

"John Little aka Big Bob Johnson, Big Dick Brown....You are under arrest for multiple murders..You have the right to remain silent..Anything you say can and will be used against you...You have a right to an attorney..If you can't afford one..one will be provided for you....Do you understand these rights ?Sure you do...You were a cop once!" she said.

Sissy, Sharon and I clapped ...Everybody else clapped... Carlotta hugged Angie...

"You got him mami...you got him!" said Carlotta...

"No Baby Sis...We got him...All of us!  " she said and we all smiled..

John Little looked at her...

"You got nothin..Nothin..It's all circumstantial...."he said.

"Maybe..but by the time the jury hears this...They'll have heard all they need to hear. Officers!" I said.

Three uniformed officers escorted John Little to the paddy wagon outside and took him to the detention center.

"No...No....I'm not Gay...I'm not Gay...I'm...I'm not...I-I just experimented a little, that's all...I'm not Gay. I-I-I- like women.." he kept mumbling....

"Da Nile is more than just a river in Egypt"  I remarked as everyone laughed....He had probably repressed his feelings for years and killed gay men as a way of killing his own urges I suspected...

The career of the "Scribbler" was in effect, over!

EPILOUGE-

News of John Little's arrest brought relief and calm to the city of Philadelphia...Especially the Gay community...

I tried him for all eight murders.....and got convictions...He was sentenced to die by Lethal Injection...

California tried him in abstentia...and got convictions on all three counts..He was sentenced to die by lethal injection there too...Screwed both ways...

He sits in a Maximum Security Prison in protective custody...He is an ex-cop....

"So mami...now that that weight is off your shoulders are you ready to return to homicide?" asked Carlotta..

"I'm thinking about it.."said Angie,smiling weakly...

"Take your time sweetie..I have two positions open....and one of them will always be for you...You always have a home here."said Sissy..

I hugged Angie..

"Always good to know...and in between now and then...If you guys ever need an extra hand , extra set of eyes...I'm just a phone call and two floors away.." she said..

 ''Come on babes..let's go home"said Jimmy as the two walked out and headed off to their home.

 Eddie C. showed up just then....

''I heard you guys made an arrest.."he said smiling...

''We did...and this girl is all yours." said Sissy ,smiling.."Good Night you two...Lock up Chica." said Sissy as she and Eddie C. walked out..

I closed Sissy's door...Her shades were already drawn...Everybody had already left for the day...I pulled Carlotta to me and began kissing her passionately...She surprisingly returned my passion and opened up my trousers..she was massaging my erection with her soft and dainty little hands and I was going crazy....Still kissing her...

I put my hands up her dress and was about to ease her panties down and then I stopped...

"What's the matter?" she asked...Looking at me in amazement...

"I can't!!! ...I can't do this in Sissy's office!!!.."I said.

Carlotta smiled..She took her hands out of my pants and I zippered them up..She fixed her clothes..

''Ahhh,and I was going to let you this time." she said.

"YOU WERE?" I asked...Getting aroused all over again....

She took my hand and led me out...and locked Sissy's door..

"Let's go home and make love all night long in our own room." she said and ran her index finger across my lips..

''Sounds like a good plan to me."I said.

"I know.." she said and smiled...I pulled her back into Sissy's office and closed the door...Locked it!!! She giggled as I kissed her passionately and unzippered her dress..

And meanwhile at Penns Landing...

Lieutenant Tragg's phone rang...

"Tragg Here.. Oh yes...Deputy of Operations...I've been waiting to hear from you....Well thank you sir...Yes..I've got this unit straightened out...SHip shape as they say...Yes sir sirrrrrrrr..What is that sir?   Lieutenant  Gatsby has retired? What? You want me to run the Marine Unit permanantly?? What??

He put his Iphone away and kicked over a trash can...

"DAMNNN..,.DAMNNN...DAMN...DAMNNNNNNNNNN!" he screamed in anger!
