My Christmas Boyfriend

That Night Was A Fairytale But With A Twist

I stood patiently outside the interigation room waiting for Nathan to come out. A tall, broad-shouldered police officer stood outside the door next to me. We kept having awkward eye contact. I was so nervous seeing as it was my turn next to go in there and answer questions. What if i said the wrong thing? What if something i say could backfire? What if i said something that could affect Nathans situation? What if-

Suddenly my thoughts were cut of by the clanking sounds of bolts being unlocked from the door and it revealed a grinning Nathan. What? Why's he grinning? I gave him a puzzled expression before hearing someone call for me to come in. Nathan gave me an encouraging smile and i flashed him a little smile back before entering a small room with a table and two chairs. I slowly took my seat at the empty seat and sat silently. Holly had already gave her side of the story and was waiting for me in the waiting room.

"Hello, Miss Mullan. Whatever you say starting from now and when this session ends, will be recorded" This hench-looking man said, pressing a button on this recording thing and i nodded.

"Ok, tell me from the beginning what happened" The man said.

What does he mean "the beginning"? Does that mean i need to tell him how Danny, 3 years ago raped me and beat me? Surely not. We're talking about this situation that has just happened.

 "You can go now.." The man said a little impatient.

I swallowed hard, took a deep breath and prepared myself for some long speech that was going to escape my lips any second now.

"On christmas day me and Holly was walking in the park when Danny comes up to me trying to pull me away saying he wanted me-" I began before getting interrupted.

"What do you mean wanted you?" The man asked raising his eyebrows.

"Well...I don't know exactly, but i assumed he wanted me for...well...you know..." I trailed off awkwardly.

"You mean..?" the man asked knowing what i meant and i nodded.

"Anyway, he pulled me off and tried forcing himself on me kissing me while Holly screamed at him to let me go but his gang crowded her and i slapped Danny away from me and he looked really angry. I closed my eyes waiting for him to pounce on me but when i opened them again Nathan and his mates were all fighting Danny and his gangs. There was blood everywhere and-" I explained before getting interrupted again.

"So, you knew this guy Danny before all of this?" The man asked confused.

I bit my lip anxiously. What am i supposed to say? Yes or no? If i say yes it could lead to so much but if i say no i will either get out of it or it'll backfire on me for not telling the truth...

"Yes" I whispered.

"How?" The man asked looking interested and stern.

"W-well...U-u-umm.." I stuttered not knowing what to say.

"Miss Mullan, i would appreciate it if you told us everything and the truth please. It will help with the investigation" The man replied, seriousness written all over his face.

I tried not to make eye contact and fiddled with my sleeve as i could feel my face burning knowing he was staring at me for an explanation. Come on maddy! This could solve everything and send Danny to jail for good! A voice in my head commented. But what if he doesn't change and comes looking for me to kill me when he gets out? I replied to my thought.

"Miss Mullan?" I heard the man ask a bit annoyed.

I was so caught up in my thoughts i forgot i was sitting in a small police room with a man sat opposite me waiting for answers.
