Advertisement
The next day at work Annalise sat down at her desk and waited for her coffee, "Villa!" She heard Slade shout from his office, she pulled herself out of her chair and made her way to his office, "yes slade?" Slade talked to her about what happened with Marcos and she suddenly realised it was a huge mistake to let him go, "Villa, I have to take your badge and gun, you are no longer a detective here".
Villa headed out of his office, trying to keep her emotions inside, she just wanted to break down, this job was her life! She emptied her desk, grabbed her stuff and headed to the only place she wanted to go, to Rosie.
"Annalise? What are you doing here? I didn't get a body?" Rosie asked her confused, but soon he realised that wasn't why she was here when she broke down and ran into his arms, he rubbed her hair to comfort her while holding her tightly, Annalise always felt safe in his arms. "Rosie, they took my badge" she manage to get out in between sobs. He didn't say anything, he just held her tighter.
Annalise came down the hall of Rosies apartment after her shower when she found him in the kitchen talking on the phone, "really? That's great! Thank you, I will see you next week!" Said Rosie in excitement. Annalise went up behind him and wrapped her hands around him, "what was that about?" She asked when he had hung up the phone. He picked her up, "put me down!!" She screamed while giggling. He threw her down on the sofa and sat down beside him, "Annalise, I'm opening a new lab..." "that's great!" Annalise said, "...in Seattle" "oh okay I heard Seattle is nice! Do you have someone in mind to run it?" She asked "Annalise..." "yes Rosie?" "Me...I'm running it..." Annalise stared at him blankly, "you what?" "Annalise come with me, come to seattle" Annalise just looked at him then looked at the floor, she didn't know what to say. "Rosie, I don't know, my life is here...I need to think about it.." she got up, grabbed her stuff and went home.

"Mom! I'm home" she shouted. "Hi mija, how are you?" "Rosies moving to Seattle" she said abruptly, "oh Lisa, I'm so sorry" she said holding her daughter in her embrace, "he wants me to go with him", "Ira told me you were fired, you should go!" "But Mami, it's new, how do I know it will last" Daisy put her hand on her heart, "you know here" she explained. That night Annalise sat in her room researching detective jobs in Seattle, when she remembered a childhood friend who lives in Seattle, "Vic? Hi it's Annalise" "Annie! Long time!!" Said Vic through the phone, "Your still in Seattle right? My bo-my um friend, is moving there and I might move with him" "ooo you have a boyfriend! You should definitely move but what happened to your job? I thought you were a big shot detective in Miami, "I was fired, it's a long story, i can't find any detective jobs in Seattle that's the problem" Annalise said disappointed, "you should become a firefighter!! That's what I do!!" "Thanks Vic, I will think about it, talk soon!" She hung up the phone.
"Rosie I will come with you!" Annalise said with glee
