BENNETT, HOWARD AND JENSON
After Halloween, Jules didn't go to school for a full week. And even though I sent her about fifty texts, she didn't respond.
I could tell something bad had happened. And that it had something to do with Nate. Tyler Clarkson was booked for assault. But this shit wasn't adding up. And I was putting together the pieces of the puzzle.
"Howard, Jenson, let's roll," Bennett said as she pushed the door of the main room, followed closely by her two detectives.
I wasn't gonna stop until I got the truth.
They walked through the entire precinct until the final door led them through East Highland's hallways, the trio now dressed in classical 90's tuxedos. Jenson dropped the cigarette she had in her mouth onto the dirty floor and swiftly crushed it with her foot on her way to a classroom filled with high schoolers.
"False accusations in today's world can cause serious long-term damage to one's career, reputation and well-being," was being broadcasted in the entire school.
The three detectives bursted in the classroom, keeping their eyes on Nate Jacobs, sitting in the front row with his alleged girlfriend, Madeleine Perez, next to him.
"We all owe Nate Jacobs a heartfelt apology, and are excited and thrilled to have him back at East Highland," the school's PA added.
"Why would Jules lie to help Nate?" Howard asked.
"I don't know."
"Well, have you asked her about it?"
"No."
"You haven't asked her?"
"No."
Keep looking, you mook. I'm Morgan fuckin' Freeman and this is the beginning of the third act.
"Well, doesn't that seem like the first logical step?"
"Honestly, Howard, this whole thing is beyond logic."
Scenery change, they were now in the bathrooms, Bennett lighting a cigarette with matches. She stroke three and was about to give up angrily when Jenson brought the match she had used to lit her own cigarette to Bennett's.
They blew out the smoke in sync.
"Unless... Jules is in love with Nate," Bennett said.
Howard and Jenson exchanged a confused glance, "Why would Jules be in love with Nate?"
Bennett pushed herself off the bathroom sinks and walked towards Howard, "Well, you should listen to me."
