Todd was temporarily lost for words and didn't know what to say. Should he tell Helen that Lou was right and he had fantasised about playing with Lou's fantastic tits and sliding his cock between those two gorgeous mounds? No, that was probably the very worst thing he could do. The silence was only broken by Helen as she avoided looking at him with red-rimmed eyes,

'I’m sorry, Todd. I can understand if you don’t want to have anything to do with an emotional mess like me.'

All his own pent-up emotion came out, his voice almost cracking as he replied.

"Helen sweetheart, you don't get rid of me that easily, it's my fault for talking you into doing something you obviously didn't want to do, I'm here to help and support you so I'm staying even if it's only as a friend and nothing else. I'll never stop loving you, your past is in the past and can't be undone. As far as Lou goes, you heard what she said, nothing will ever happen between us, anyway, if it came to a choice between the two of you you'd win hands down."

He sat down beside her and tilted her face up to his and kissed her gently on the lips, his hands began to unbutton the front of her blouse,

"Tell me if you want me to stop" His voice husky and full of emotion.

 

[Opensesame54321]

She couldn’t believe that he still wanted her. Blinking, she listened to him. His answer touched her.

And then he kissed her. Soft and gentle and she almost started crying again. His fingers shook as he started to unbutton her blouse and his voice was shaky as he whispered to her.

Tell me if you want me to stop

Taking a shaky breath, she whispered back. “Oh, Todd, I don’t want you to stop. I’m crazy about you. Why do you think that I got so jealous of the way that you looked at Lou. I want you all to myself. I was so afraid that once you heard about all the stuff that I had done, that had been done to me, that you would be disgusted and disappointed in me. How I had been fooled and tricked and used. I wanted you to be proud of me. I love you so much that it hurts.”

 

[cumnchat]

With shaking fumbling fingers Todd managed to open Helen's blouse he was still nervous about saying the wrong thing, Helen was in such a fragile state of mind but her words encouraged him to bare her breasts and kiss her swelling rosebud nipples.

'Oh, Todd, I don’t want you to stop. I’m crazy about you. Why do you think that I got so jealous of the way that you looked at Lou? I want you all to myself. I was so afraid that once you heard about all the stuff that I had done, that had been done to me, that you would be disgusted and disappointed in me. How I had been fooled and tricked and used. I wanted you to be proud of me. I love you so much that it hurts.'

He was tempted to admonish her for being so silly and not telling him what was on her mind but instead, he took it upon himself to take the blame.

"Helen dearest, I am the cause of all this, I want to make it plain that any thoughts of leaving you to go through this on your own have never entered my head. I am so proud of you for having the courage to tell your story, it's not a pretty one I grant you but it needed to be told. We have all been fooled and tricked at some point in our lives and there is no reason why you should be any different."

He flicked his tongue over a hard engorged nipple and slid his hand underneath her skirt and between her legs and under her panties, and flattened the palm of his hand on her mound as he lay her back on the couch and rubbed slowly and gently on her mons, and kissed her again and again,

"Let's do as Lou suggested and show each other how sorry we are, in the bedroom,"

He grinned and pulled her to her feet,

"Well, what are you waiting for? A written invitation?"

He went to the door of the suite and hung the 'DO NOT DISTURB' sign on the door and took her hand and led her into the bedroom kicking the door closed behind them.

Helen dearest, I am the cause of all this, I want to make it plain that any thoughts of leaving you to go through this on your own have never entered my head. I am so proud of you for having the courage to tell your story, it's not a pretty one I grant you but it needed to be told. We have all been fooled and tricked at some point in our lives and there is no reason why you should be any different.

Her back arched as if trying to follow his tongue as it teased her nipple. But his words touched her even more. He was not ashamed of her. He still found her desirable. His hand searched and found the gateway to her sex, rubbing his flattened palm against where the hair usually grew. That area, shaven and soft, felt even more exposed to his attention as he laid her back on the couch, kissing her while his hand teased her.

Let's do as Lou suggested and show each other how sorry we are, in the bedroom,

There was a pause and then he pulled her to her feet.

Well, what are you waiting for? A written invitation?

She watched him hang the ‘DO NOT DISTURB’ sign out before leading her to the bedroom and kicking the door closed.

Alone with him, she easily slipped into his arms. His kiss was passionate and deep and when he finally broke it, she felt a bit dizzy. Resting her hands in his chest, the natural progression was to start unbuttoning his shirt. She could feel him unzipping her dress as she unbuckled his pants. It soon became a tit for tat thing until they quickly undressed each other.

She looked at him, both of them nude and for once, she was hiding nothing. He still wanted her. She couldn’t believe that finally she had picked the right one. Or maybe it was that the right one had picked her.

“Todd,” she whispered in his ear, “I love you. I really do.”

 

[cumnchat]

Helen didn't resist as he led her into the bedroom and Todd kicked the door closed, they were now together and the rest of the world didn't exist as Helen melted into his welcoming arms and in a matter of just a few seconds they were both naked, their clothes scattered all over the floor. They looked at each other and Todd saw the love in Helen's eyes and they closed the gap between them their bodies hot with passion,

'Todd, I love you. I really do.'

She nibbled on his earlobe and he returned the gesture with the one that she loved so much.

"I love you too Helen sweetheart, but it's taken us this long to say it to each other and know that we really mean it. We've said it before but there was always a hint of doubt as to whether we were in love or lust. I couldn't understand why you were so prickly at times and lambasting me for something minor but now I realise why you were wary of me, thinking that I might be using you as you were easy. Well, I have never thought of you as easy, in fact, at times you were damned hard work."

Todd laughed and pressed his stiff cock against her belly,

"Now it's time you got a taste of what being hard really means."

He gave Helen a gentle push and she fell back on the bed her legs splayed open.

"Is that for me Helen?"

He got down on his knees and leaned forward holding her legs apart as he kissed and sucked his way up the inside of her thighs until his lips closed on her juicy pink folds and he sucked the soft wet fleshy lips into his mouth with his tongue caressing the sensitive entrance.

There was so much he wanted to say but the only sounds he could manage were a contented,

"MMMMMMM," and the soft wet sound of him sucking and drinking her flowing juices.

He kept going until Helen had her first orgasm then he lay on top of her and caressed her, his manhood slid easily into her juicy wetness and they moved slowly against each other, sliding smoothly in and out, in and out.

"This is my heaven, darling." he murmured.

 

[Opensesame54321]

I love you too Helen sweetheart, but it's taken us this long to say it to each other and know that we really mean it. We've said it before but there was always a hint of doubt as to whether we were in love or lust. I couldn't understand why you were so prickly at times and lambasting me for something minor but now I realise why you were wary of me, thinking that I might be using you as you were easy. Well, I have never thought of you as easy, in fact, at times you were damned hard work.

She laughed with him but at the same time, she could see the love in his eyes. She could also feel his hard cock pressing against her stomach and knew what was coming next.

Now it's time you got a taste of what being hard really means.

And with a press of his hand, she was suddenly on her back on the bed. Without a second thought, her legs fell open, hiding nothing from her lover.

Is that for me Helen?

“Nobody else.”

To her delight, Todd knelt down and began to lick and suck and nibble his way up the inside of her thighs until at last her found her very wet and needy sex. This was something that Claudio never did for her. She had always been expected to do it for him but never the other way around.

He made happy sucking sounds and she couldn’t help herself as his eager mouth and tongue worked her towards her first climax.

As she was coming down, he lifted his face, grinning at her with his chin wet with her fluids. He worked his way up her body so that he could sink his cock deep inside her, sliding in and out. Without a second thought, her hips met his.

This is my heaven, darling.

She kissed him, tasting herself on his lips. “This is better than I ever thought heaven could be. A man that finally accepts me for who I am. I love you.”

 

[cumnchat]

Their lovemaking began as just that, soft gentle lovemaking, Todd rocking in and out of Helen's hot wet pussy and sucking on her nipples when she arched her back during her several orgasms. As time passed the lovemaking developed into raw hard fucking with each of them voicing their pleasure or need, Todd's jaw ached from the amount of time he spent with his head between Helen's wet slippery thighs with her heels hammering on his back spurring him on. They finally slipped into an exhausted sleep just as dawn was breaking, but before they did Todd murmured cheekily to Helen,"

You won't mind too much if I don't have a woody when we wake up will you?"

He chuckled and spooned into Helen's back holding her tight in his arms. It only seemed a few minutes later when Todd was woken by the sound of his cell phone going off he looked at the bedside clock, 11 A.M... He forced himself awake and reached for his phone, it was then that he felt the scratches down his back and he grinned at the memory of Helen raking her nails down his back, god, it had hurt but was worth all the pain and he remembered with a wry smile that he had got his own back by paddling her delectable round butt.

"Todd Bennett," he mumbled into the phone.

"You had better tell that slut next to you to have a memory lapse or she could meet with a nasty accident, could even be fatal."

There was no need to ask who it was it, there was no mistaking that sneering voice.

"You stay well away from us, you're going down for certain," he replied angrily.

"Not without her testimony I ain't, you might get the cops but I'm untouchable, she could end up in the river like that young guy she claims I disposed of." Claudio sneered down the phone.

"We'll see about that you fucking slimeball." Todd fumed helplessly, he now knew that Helen was in even more danger.

He rang Pete at the THREE ARCHES precinct and told him about the phone call,

"Okay, here's what you do, stay put until I send someone for you, don't try to be clever let us handle it, Claudio has just made his first mistake we've had his phone calls monitored for the past twelve hours so we'll know exactly what he said and what threats he made, we have the three cops in custody and it'd be good if Helen could attend an ID parade at say three o' clock this afternoon. We're moving fast on this one so no one decides to take some leave and disappears, can you manage that?"

"Sure Pete and thanks again for believing Helen, she really needed someone to believe her."

"No problem Todd, everyone in that room yesterday believed her, you've got a real good 'un there."

"That's good to know Pete, thanks again see you later."

He snapped the phone off and saw Helen looking at him enquiringly.

"That was Pete at the station you've got an ID parade at three." He didn't mention the call from Claudio.

 

[Opensesame54321]

Helen woke up feeling very thankful for Todd and their night of lovemaking. It was nice to finally have someone think more of her than a place to dump their cum.

He was talking on the phone at the moment but she was not sure exactly what was going on. He looked somewhat perturbed. However, he finished his call and answered her unspoken question.

That was Pete at the station you've got an ID parade at three.

“An ID parade? So, what am I going to do? Are they planning on standing there naked while I look at their dicks? I mean, the two that interviewed me at first, I saw their faces and their dicks. But one guy, I never saw his face. I only saw his dick. Up close. So what, these guys gonna stand there with a bag over their heads, their pants around their ankles?”

She was nervous. This whole idea scared her.

“Will they be able to see me? Will they know that I’m there? I mean, they won’t... I mean, you’ll be there with me. You won’t leave me, will you?”

She held a hand out to him.

 

[cumnchat]

Todd saw how scared she was and decided to keep his mouth shut about the call from Claudio and hoped that Pete wouldn't mention it either, if he did, Helen would want to know why he hadn't told her and he would be in her bad books yet again.

She looked so innocent and vulnerable as she knelt on the bed, her breasts quivering with her nervousness.

'Will they be able to see me? Will they know that I’m there? I mean, they won’t... I mean, you’ll be there with me. You won’t leave me, will you?'

He held one of her delicate little hands clasped between his two hands as she stretched her arm out for reassurance.

"Don't worry baby, everything's going to be fine, All they know is that they are part of an ID parade, they have no idea that they are the ones in the firing line. You'll be behind a one-way mirror so they won't see you. As for leaving you,,,,, no way,,,,,,, wild horses won't drag me away from you."

He could tell how nervous she was as he had to fasten her bra for her and button her blouse her hands were shaking so much. Finally, she was ready and he gave her a reassuring hug and a kiss. He explained that they would have to wait for someone from the precinct to fetch them as Pete was just being careful, with Claudio an everpresent threat while he was still on the loose.

A knock finally came on the door,

"Who's there?" he challenged through the closed door

"Serjeant Trevor Maguire from Three Arches Precinct." came the reply in a heavy Irish brogue.

"Wait a moment Serjeant," Todd called Pete on his mobile and spoke for a couple of minutes then hung up and called out,

"Where are you from Serjeant?"

"From the Emerald Isle soorrr, Londonderry, to be exact, so oi am."

"Now what is your password?"

"From the other side of the door, they heard a muttered but distinct,

"Holy Mother Of God!" spoken as if in exasperation.

Todd grinned broadly and opened the door to a bulky policeman in his blues,

"Thanks for being so patient Serjeant, we can't be too careful."

"It's a pleasure Mr Bennett, and you my pretty young lady." He nodded his head towards Helen.

Trevor proved to be excellent at his job, taking them a circuitous route out of the hotel to a waiting unmarked car a block down from the hotel. Once in the car Todd relaxed a little but kept a reassuring hold on Helen's hand. They didn't have to find a parking spot as they were driven into a small courtyard with fifteen foot high walls all round except for the entrance. They were ushered inside by Trevor and left in a small bare room, much like an interrogation room. Helen looked scared and ready to burst into tears when Pete came in followed by none other than Lou, still flaunting her cleavage. Todd tried to look away but her boobs were like magnets, Lou smiled and gave her customary heft under her boobs and said all businesslike,

"Ok what are we waiting for let's get on with it and get these scumbags locked up and charged."

The party made its way to an even smaller room with one wall a large floor to ceiling window. A door opened and twelve men were led in one by one. Todd held Helen's hand and felt her grip tighten as if in fear as two of the men took their place. He now knew who they were and he vowed silently that if they escaped the law they wouldn't escape him.

 

[Opensesame54321]

She left everything to Todd, letting him do his job of checking sexy, making sure that the police officer was who he said that he was. She conceding the ID. That was her job. Though she was thankful for him for otherwise she would be greeting the officer half dressed.

She really didn’t pay attention to the car or the route that they took to the station. Though she gripped Todd’s hand so tight that she halfway expected to have him cry out in pain.

It looked like they were being escorted in through a secret way, which was perfectly fine with her. She and Todd sat in a relatively bare room before that Pete and Lou joined them. She ignored Lou and just clung onto Todd’s hand.

Ok what are we waiting for let's get on with it and get these scumbags locked up and charged.

The group next went into a small little room where she was assured that she was behind a one way mirror and she watched as a door opened and twelve men filed in. Right away she recognized the two detectives that had interviewed her. Number Five and Number Eight. Five and Eight. Five. Eight.

She did not even wait to be asked. “Number Five was the first one that I talked to. Then he went and got the other officer, which was Number Eight. Numbers Five and Number Eight. It was Five and Eight!”

 

[cumnchat]

There was such certainty in Helen's quavering voice that everyone in the viewing room knew that there was no mistake, numbers five and eight were pulled from the lineup and taken for interrogation, not only was she so certain but she had said previously that her molesters were cops and she had picked out the only two cops in the lineup.

Pete Hudson came to them about an hour later beaming all over his face,

"We got'em, when they saw all the evidence we have they folded like a deck of cards, Morris and Minns and they implicated the third guy that Helen couldn't describe apart from his dick, as I thought, it was Maguire, we'll be bringing him in within the hour."

Helen began to tear up and Todd put a comforting arm around her and asked the question that he knew Helen was afraid to ask,

"What about Claudio? Have you got anything on him yet?"

"As yet, NO, but we're working on that, there's one thing I want to ask you though Helen, this alleged robbery that you went to report, do you know if it actually took place? This is important, you see it could be that the guys who did the robbery knew there was no chance of them being caught. You see where I'm going with this, can you tell me as much as you can remember what you heard Claudio say while you were su....... " He stopped realising what he was about to say, "While you were in the room?"

He knew he was asking a lot after all that Helen had gone through but he'd sooner do it now rather than have her come in again tomorrow. Todd, as protective as ever tried to dissuade him from asking any more questions but the decision lay with Helen and no one else.

 

[Opensesame54321]

When Pete told them that the two cops had admitted it and named the third cop, she felt relief. Maybe there would soon be an end in sight. But then Todd asked about Claudio and she wasn’t as happy with that answer.

As yet, NO, but we're working on that, there's one thing I want to ask you though Helen, this alleged robbery that you went to report, do you know if it actually took place? This is important, you see it could be that the guys who did the robbery knew there was no chance of them being caught. You see where I'm going with this, can you tell me as much as you can remember what you heard Claudio say while you were su.......While you were in the room?

She flushed bright red and ducked her head, embarrassed. With Todd’s arms still around her, she closed her eyes, trying to remember.

“It was a bank called South Federation Bank or Southern Federation Bank. I remember the word “federation” was in it. They hit it on a Monday. They called it ‘money Monday’ cause the next day was the first of the month so the bank would have lots of extra money for people cashing their paychecks. I think that they did the robbery cause for a couple of days afterwards, they all joked about ‘money Monday’ and Claudio beat the crap out of me for trying to spoil his deal.”

She turned and excused herself, needing to go to the bathroom. Once in there, she locked the stall door and proceeded to throw up in the toilet.

After she was through, she flushed and turned to unlock the door. There was something on the floor and she automatically picked it up. Turning it over as she stepped out, she saw it was a playing card - the Queen of Hearts. Scrawled across the face was DEAD MEAT.

Screaming, she backed herself into a corner of the bathroom, crouching on the floor and clutching the card in her hand.

 

[cumnchat]

Pete Hudson took notes while Helen was trying to remember what she had heard and when she had finished he grinned to try and reassure her,

"Thanks, Helen that helps a lot, we'll check on that robbery and see who was supposed to be on patrol in that area on that day, it'll be no surprise if it was the three musketeers on patrol and they were somewhere else."

Todd waited for Helen to go to the bathroom and while he was waiting, Pete played the police recording of Claudio's call to him earlier, hearing it for the second time got his blood boiling but he knew it was damming evidence if they ever got Claudio to trial.

They were discussing it when there was a blood-curdling scream from the direction of the bathroom. They raced anxiously to the bathroom where they found Helen, white-faced, crouched in the corner of the bathroom.

"What's up, baby?" asked Todd anxiously looking for any sign of injury, seeing none, he sat on the cold marble floor beside her and put his arm around her. It was then that he saw the crumpled playing card in her hand, gently he took it from her and gave it to Pete Hudson,

"How the fucking hell did this happen, Pete? This is supposed to be a fucking police station."

Pete was as shocked as the rest of them and ordered an immediate lockdown on the whole station, no-one allowed in or out.

"Whoever it was can't have got far, we'll check that everyone in the station has a legitimate reason for being here and I want to see the security tapes for the last hour, especially people coming in and going out."

Pete was really pissed off that this had happened in his station, he was the one ultimately responsible and his superiors would take a very serious view of it, his only hope of escaping relatively unscathed meant they had to find whoever had dropped that card off and find them fast.

"Helen, I'm sorry but for your own safety we're gonna have to put you in protective custody, I'll have an armed officer with you at all times, and before you ask Todd, you can go with her."

It was a despondent and confused couple that were led down below to the cells and locked in. Helen was still frightened and shivering so Todd lay her on the single bunk and squeezed himself on beside her, he wrapped his arms protectively around her saying nothing and letting her sleep.

 

[Opensesame54321]

Suddenly, being put in protective custody by Pete was a lot like being in prison. She was thankful when Todd curled up with her on the bunk and wrapped himself around her. As she shivered and cried herself to sleep, Todd was there holding her and trying to comfort her until she finally drifted off the sleep.

Meanwhile, while the building was on lockdown, Pete and Lou and the rest of the team crowded around the screen and watched the playback. There was not a CC camera in the ladies room but there was one just outside the door and looking down the hall. They backed it up to about 10 minutes before Helen went in the bathroom. There seemed to be the standard foot traffic. A woman going in. A woman coming out. Nothing looked suspicious.

Suddenly, the screen came alive and Todd, Pete and Lou went tearing in and were seen bringing a very upset Helen out.

“Stop stop! Let’s go backwards slowly.” Rewinding slowly, they watched the figures go backwards across the screen until Lou called out.

“Stop! See this woman, she come out of the bathroom about 30 seconds before Helen screams.” They watched the figure run backwards and forwards repeatedly in the screen. Lou shook her head. “She doesn’t look right.”

“What’s wrong with her?”

Lou shook her head. “I don’t know. She doesn’t move right.” The woman was a dark figure. Long dark hair, big dark sunglasses, floppy hat, dark pantsuit.

Pete was immediately on the phone to security with a description of the woman. Meanwhile, Lou looked at the card. It was the Queen of Hearts with a red line drawn across the neck of the Queen. The words ‘DEAD MEAT’ were written on top of that.

“You know, this can certainly be used in court. Too bad Helen and Todd and practically everyone else has handled it.”

“I know. I know!” Pete was getting frustrated and the only thing that stopped him was the phone ringing.

Lou watched as he answered and she felt hopeful when she saw his grin. As he hung up, he told Lou, “we got ‘em!”

Fifteen minutes later, they were in the interrogation room and the woman sat across from them. Pete and Lou lit into her and an hour later, they had the story. “She” was a “He” and one of Claudio’s men that had been sent to teach “the Bitch” a lesson. The man had drawn the short straw and had been sent in drag to get the message to Helen. The guy was arrested and Lou headed down to let Todd know the good news.

Todd was curled up with Helen on the bunk but when he heard her outside the bars, he came over to get the news while the cop unlocked the cell. Poor Helen was still curled up on the cot sound asleep as Lou gave him the news.

 

[cumnchat]

Relief washed over Todd as Lou gave him the news, her magnificent breasts jiggling with emotion. Helen was no longer in any immediate danger but that danger still existed outside the walls of the station so long as Claudio was still running loose.

"What about Claudio?" he felt compelled to ask, "Are they going to arrest him? You know Helen won't be safe until he's safely behind bars."

"Maybe not even then, Helen is the only real witness we have and you can bet your bottom dollar that Claudio will have left instructions for the only witness to be got rid of before or even during the trial."

"Well, we can't stay here. I'm going stir crazy even after only a couple of hours and I haven't even done anything wrong, you can see that Helen is scared out of her wits, she'll never cope." Todd pleaded and Lou promised to speak with Pete and see what could be done.

"Thanks, Lou, I know you'll do your best, meanwhile let Helen sleep on and you had better lock me in with her, she's gonna need me when she wakes up."

Lou patted Todd's hand and gave him a big hug squashing her tits against his chest,

"You know what Lou? Pete's a damn lucky man." He laughed,

Lou looked down at her chest where her tits were threatening to burst out of her blouse, she laughed too,

"Damn right he is, good job he knows it too, he takes really good care of my girls."

On that note, Todd went back into the cell and lay down beside Helen who slept through it all, snoring lightly. Lou went to find Pete to see if he could find a safe house and an armed guard for them both.

 

[Opensesame54321]

At first, she couldn’t remember just where she was. She was very aware of Todd snuggled up behind her, with his body literally pressed so that she could practically feel his heartbeat on her back. His arms were wrapped around her, but she wasn’t sure if it was to act as protection for her, sort of like a barrier between her and any flying bullets. Or maybe he was just trying to keep from falling off the bed that was not made for two. Of course, he might just be tired and since it was the only bed in the cell, then...

Whatever the reason, she was glad that he was there. And it didn’t feel like he was there because it was his job, but more like he was there because he wanted to be there.

She took a deep sigh and spoke softly.

“Todd, are you awake? Todd, can you hear me?” She snuggled back against him, carefully. After all, she didn’t want to knock him off the bed.

 

[cumnchat]

Todd decided against grabbing a blanket and sleeping on the floor, instead, he spooned behind Helen with his arms around her, holding her fairly tight for two reasons, one, it was so nice cuddled up with her and two, it stopped him falling off the bed. With Helen asleep and no one else to talk to he dozed off. How long for he had no idea but when he woke the light coming through the bars of the cell was fading so it had to be early evening.

Helen stirred and sighed,

'Todd, are you awake? Todd, can you hear me?'

"Yes, baby, I'm here, I've had a word with Lou and she's having a word with Pete about finding us somewhere more comfortable as we can't go back to the hotel."

Helen snuggled back into him and he had to make a grab for her to stop being pushed off the bed, resulting in him grabbing her breasts, thus causing a chain reaction and his cock, although still in his pants was pushed firmly between her ass cheeks.

Just a few minutes later Pete arrived with Lou,

"Good news. I've managed to find a safe house and two armed detectives to look after you, it's nothing fancy but it's comfortable, we don't know how long you'll be there so we'll collect all your clothes and personal belongings from the hotel. You leave in an hour when it's dark."

"Are the guards really necessary, we'd like some privacy you know?"

Lou laughed throatily, "Don't worry there's a separate bedroom with a big double bed. you can bonk as much as you like but keep the noise down."

She sidled up to Todd and whispered, "The bed squeaks a bit but it's as solid as a rock, Pete and I can swear to that."

Just an hour later Serjeant Maguire who had taken them to the station was behind the wheel of the unmarked car with blacked out windows. It seemed to take forever before they arrived at a rundown looking street and even more rundown houses.

Trevor took them round the back way before letting them in,

"The two detectives will be here shortly until they arrive you're in my care," he announced cheerfully, he nodded to Helen, "The kitchen is through there, can you rustle up some coffee while I explain the rules to Todd."

"There's no need, the Captain explained before we left, now don't take offence but Helen is not our goddamned maid, so in future, you treat her properly."

Looking suitably embarrassed Trevor apologized,

Oi'm terribly sorry Helen I meant nothing by it, it just seemed right, you being a woman an'all."

Todd groaned inwardly, 'Now you've gone and done it, that was entirely the wrong thing to say' he thought to himself.

 

[Opensesame54321]

Helen left Todd to take care of the arrangements. Though she had managed to fall asleep, when she woke up it felt as if she had slept on a bag of rocks and she ached all over. She sure did miss the bed at the fancy hotel cause it was for sure that this bunk wasn’t made for two.

Todd had a quick word with Lou and came over to her, telling her that they were being moved to a safe house. It was for damn sure that it wouldn’t be a 4 star hotel either. She had seen enough movies to know the answer to that.

After a while, the big Irish galoot turned up to take them to their safe house. Galoot! She had heard that word used once in some old movie made a long time ago and thought that it was a funny word. One of those movies where all the men wore suits and hats and talked out of the side of their mouths. And all the women were called “dames” and had on hose with a seam up the back.

She and Todd sat in the back of the dark car with darken windows until finally they wound up in front of a worn down house and were quickly escorted inside.

The two detectives will be here shortly until they arrive you're in my care. The kitchen is through there, can you rustle up some coffee while I explain the rules to Todd.

She stood there staring at the man. What was he telling her that for? Todd quickly spoke up.

There's no need, the Captain explained before we left, now don't take offence but Helen is not our goddamned maid, so in future, you treat her properly.

She was proud of the way that Todd setting the officer right. But the next words out of the officer’s mouth were the wrong thing to say.

Oi'm terribly sorry Helen I meant nothing by it, it just seemed right, you being a woman an'all.

“Me being a woman and all? Is that how you treat women where you come from? Because if it is, then I want nothing to do with that place. Just stick a woman in the kitchen. That should make her happy. You want coffee, go make it your fucking self.”

By the time that she finished her tirade, her voice volume had risen quite a bit. Definitely angry, she headed for the bedroom and slammed the door. Once on the bed, her tears easily started. She was scared, upset and had no idea what was going on. All stability in her life was gone save Todd. She had been threatened, abused and attempts had been made on her life. She wasn’t angry at Todd, she was angry with life.

The angry exchange of words between Officer Maguire and Helen came as no real surprise to Todd, Helen's nerves were as taut as a bowstring and the slightest thing would spark her off and Maguire, apparently making the slur that women belonged in the kitchen had ignited that spark. He thought it best to let Helen be by herself for a while, have a good cry and then he would take her some coffee.

Maguire was beside himself having upset Helen so much, he had come to like the young couple and wanted to be a good friend to them both but he had started disastrously.

"Oi'm real sorry Todd, oi didn't mean anything by it, just come out sorta natural like, ya think she'll forgive me?"

"Think nothing of it, Trevor, she'll come round in her own time, her nerves are shot, take it from me her bark is a lot worse than her bite, I should know, we've fallen out so many times over silly misunderstandings and yet here we are still together."

"You're a really lucky guy Todd, she's beautiful but fiery, must be that red hair. Pity my missus ain't like her."

"Things not good at home then Trevor? What about your family, kids and so on?"

"Let me ask you a question Todd, don't answer unless you want to."

"Sure, fire away," Todd replied, curious to know what sort of question it would be.

"Look, Todd, I know you and Helen haven't been together that long but how many times do you reckon you've ,,,, er,,, you know what I mean?"

Todd hadn't been expecting that and at first, he was angry, thinking that somehow Trevor was getting off with knowing how many times he'd fucked Helen but Trevor's eyes had a strange pained look in them and he decided to give some sort of answer,

"I don't rightly know but at a very rough guess somewhere between thirty and fifty times, why do you want to know?"

"You wanna know how many times I've fucked my missus? Well, I'll tell you, we've been married thirteen years and I've fucked her eleven times."

"Surely not, that's about once a year, and how the hell can you be so sure?"

"Your maths are pretty spot on but as to the rest," He paused, then it all came out in a rush,

"I've got eleven kids Todd, eleven, every time I fuck my missus she falls and I can't get near her until at least three months after the kid's born."

"Christ almighty, Trevor, can't you do something about it?"

"If you're suggesting what I think you're suggesting then no, she'd divorce me if I did owt like that."

Todd was speechless and decided not to pry any further so he made some coffee and took a mug into Helen wondering if she had heard anything of what was said.

Why were men such pricks sometimes? She’s a woman so let’s put her in the kitchen! She a woman so let’s make her suck my cock.

She cried until her tears tapered off and she had the hiccups. Her makeup had run and the pillow was all wet and now her nose was all stopped up. She could hear Todd talking to the policeman in the other room but she couldn’t make out the words that were said. Eventually the guys grew quiet and she laid there on her side, curled up in a ball.

The sound of the doorknob rattling brought her out of her contemplation. She recognized Todd’s footsteps and heard the door close. The odor of hot coffee wafted across the room.

“Does he hate me? Though I can’t say that I would blame him.”

She rolled over to look at him. “Hell, why don’t you just take me out and shoot me. It would probably put all of us out of our misery.”

Taking the coffee that he offered, she took a sip. “At lease there’s room for both of us here.” She was quiet for a moment, thinking. “Todd, am I gonna spend the rest of my life running? Trying to stay one step ahead of Claudio? Always looking over my back, afraid to answer the door, or go out by myself? Will this ever end? Or does it end only with my death? Will we ever have a normal day? Or is it hopeless?” She put the mug on the bedside table and leaned into him, slipping her arms around his body, holding on tightly. Her voice was small as she spoke, burying her face in his chest.

“I don’t think that I could make it without you.”

When Todd took the coffee to Helen he saw straight away that she was a mess not just physically but mentally, even as she sat sipping her coffee she asked, mostly to herself

'At least there’s room for both of us here. Todd, am I gonna spend the rest of my life running? Trying to stay one step ahead of Claudio? Always looking over my back, afraid to answer the door, or go out by myself? Will this ever end? Or does it end only with my death? Will we ever have a normal day? Or is it hopeless?'

He put his arm around her in an attempt to comfort her,

"Helen sweetheart, the end is in sight you can't give up now, you have everyone in your corner fighting for you."

Helen turned into him holding him as though he was a liferaft in her life, she buried her head in his chest and in an almost childlike voice she told him,

'I don’t think that I could make it without you.'

"You don't have to Helen, I'm here with you every step of the way, I know this started out as just another babysitting job but now it's a whole lot more than that, how many times do I have to say it, honey, I L-O-V-E Y-O-U" Todd spelt it out for her on her lips, keeping her tears from running down her face.

"Look I know Trevor upset you but he's apologised and believe me compared to his problems we're in clover. Come on out and talk to us, talk about anything you like except,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, oh damn I've forgotten his name." he laughed trying to lighten the mood,

"Or we could just stay here on the bed and maybe find a topic that interests us both, remember what Lou said, the bed's very solid but squeaks."

You don't have to Helen, I'm here with you every step of the way, I know this started out as just another babysitting job but now it's a whole lot more than that, how many times do I have to say it, honey, I L-O-V-E Y-O-U

She couldn’t help but smile just knowing that he was in her corner. That made all the difference in the world.

“And I love you.”

She looked up at him and kissed him on the lips before giving out a very big sigh. He continued on.

Look I know Trevor upset you but he's apologised and believe me compared to his problems we're in clover. Come on out and talk to us, talk about anything you like except,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, oh damn I've forgotten his name. Or we could just stay here on the bed and maybe find a topic that interests us both, remember what Lou said, the bed's very solid but squeaks.

She raised an eyebrow at his words. “Squeaks, eh? So that means that old Trevor will know what we’re up to?” She nuzzled against his neck before placing little kisses along where that artery flowed. She almost thought that she could feel his heart start to beat faster. “What exactly did you have in mind? Hmmmmm?” Out of the corner of her eye she thought that she could see his pants starting to tent. A smile played around her lips. “Oh my, I do believe that that you do have something in mind. Should we see just how solid the bed is?”

 

[cumnchat]

As they lay wrapped in each other's arms, nuzzling and kissing each other, Todd saw the amused, teasing smile in her eyes, her next words confirmed his suspicions,

'Oh my, I do believe that that you do have something in mind. Should we see just how solid the bed is?'

Helen was coming out of her period of depression and anxiety and the only thing on both their minds was PLAYTIME. He hugged her tighter and kissed that spot behind her right ear that would send her wild, his hand slid down to the hem of her skirt and inched it up her smooth silky thighs, his fingertips lightly teasing her cool skin. When his fingers came into contact with her panties they were already damp and Todd lost no time in sliding his hand under the lacy material and found the tiny button that was already beginning to swell and throb,

"Helen, you are a dirty naughty girl and I love you for it," he chuckled as he rolled the little nub under his fingers.

With his free hand, he reached behind her and began sliding the zipper down, once fully down he sat her up and pulled the front of her dress down and exposed her lacy bra.

"Are you cold or something, wearing so many clothes?" he joked,

Reaching round to unsnap her bra and allowing her beautiful breasts to tumble out, her nipples tight, hard quivering nubs. He lowered his head and sucked one pink nipple into his mouth, his tongue licking the very tip. He heard Helen giggle and then sigh and she wriggled out of her dress making sure his hands and mouth stayed where they were.

"Let's just take it nice and slow baby, the bed won't squeak so loud and Trevor won't hear a thing, besides which I think you want some TLC rather than a hard fucking, If I'm wrong just let me know."

Helen's panties were off in seconds and he lay on top her and his cock was half way in her soaking pussy, gently pumping his meat into her. They made love slowly for several minutes before Todd unconsciously increased the pace and the bed springs began to protest but neither of them cared, they were together.

 

[Opensesame54321]

The fact that Todd was starting to understand her moods made her feel so special. After so long of being forced to think about others and basically being ignored, it was wonderful to have found someone that thought of her. Someone that cared about her. Someone that loved her. Someone that worried over her and wanted to protect her. She almost wanted to cry at having finally found someone that seemed to actually be that special someone. Someone that didn’t just fuck her but that instead made love to her.

So when after a few minutes of tease and play they both wound up naked and she was on her back with him pumping slowly into her, she felt as if she were in heaven. His kisses were addicting and they even spent some time having a tongue duel of sorts.

But he was correct. She did need TLC. The day had been grueling and then finding the card with the threat in it in the bathroom, and spending time under lockup crowded on that rock-hard bunk in the jail cell had all pushed her almost to the breaking point.

Thank God she had Todd to lean on. If something ever happened to him, she thought that she would lose it.

As she felt herself heading towards a climax, tears suddenly filled her eyes as she looked at him with total love. Her voice was soft yet pure and true as she whispered to him.

“Todd, I love you.” And with those words she came.

 

[cumnchat]

Todd found that making love to Helen was more than satisfying his needs he was satisfying her need to feel wanted, she wanted to be loved and to love someone herself, he thrust gently but firmly inside her, feeling her tight channel gripping his shaft and pushing her hips up to meet each thrust pulling him in with her legs wrapped around his waist and the soft SLAP, SLAP, SLAP of flesh on flesh. She shuddered as she climaxed and he followed suit shortly after, injecting his creamy sperm into her as they embraced the euphoria of love for each other,

' Todd, I love you.'

She had told him that many times before and yet the way she spoke made him truly believe her and he knew then that no matter what the future held for them both they would face it together.

"Ditto sweetheart," he replied as he lowered his lips to Helen's for yet another kiss.

Several minutes later Todd got up and pulled on his pants and shirt,

"Let's see what's in the fridge, I'm famished"

He opened the door and just outside he found Trevor reading some magazine he had found, nothing odd in that but Todd laughed when he saw wads of cotton wool stuffed in both of his ears. Trevor started as Todd tapped him on the shoulder and hastily pulled the cotton wool from his ears.

"Hi Todd, how's Helen? I'll apologise to her again if I need to, I was gonna bring you something to eat but you sounded kinda busy, and I couldn't bear it so I,,,,,,,,,,,,,," He sheepishly indicated the cotton wool.

Todd laughed again,

"No need to apologise, Trevor, Helen's cool about it, sorry about the noise, we were warned."

Within fifteen minutes the three of them were sat at the table playing cribbage like a normal family except for Trevor's police issue revolver laying on the table as a reminder.
