I felt happy. I was out of the hospital healing. Of course I couldn't dance which killed me. I had unwilling moved back home Lexi kinda begged me to. I lasted a week before I was back at the Voight recidence. Dad gave up caring where I lived unlike my mother. All dad cared about was that I was safe.
Lexi ran over hugging me. Despite being worlds apart we were close, thick as thieves. "What's going on" I asks confused "how's your boyfriend" she gives me a confused "fine why" "wanted to ask" "I do need your help with something else" "he had me holding stuff for him" "is that why dad asked if I had any pot" she nods "Lex your the golden child he asks you to you give it to me" she just stares at me "well he told everyone dad went crazy" "so what do you want me to do" I ask "well you aren't exactly everyone's biggest fan" "Lex what do you want me to do" "I don't know I really don't your always the target" "you want to know how to handle it" she shrugs "well one have something away from it I have dance just something away from all the drama also have someone who will listen to anything" "you have Justin" I sigh nodding "yep" I said popping the p. "Do kinda wish it was me but I knew you guys have some kinds extraordinary bond from when I was six" she said shrugging "how do you do it" "lots of Justin snuggles" I said laughing making she let out a chuckle. "I miss you" "I'm always around lex" I shrug "I know it's just your not at home" "mum put you up to this" "what no" she actually seemed insulted I said that "I have never consistently lived at home i was three when you got sick from then on it just....i remember when you got better and got home I cried so much because I didn't understand why Justin and Hank and Camille weren't there. It got to stressful for mum she was fussing over you and I didn't get why. In my mind you came home and you were better so I didn't get it. Mum sent me back to Camille who had an eleven year old Justin. She didn't mind claimed I kept her company while he was at school. Think he got a bit bullied well sort of just because of how excited he got to see me but he put them in their place" she looks at me in disbelief "that's a lot to unpack" she takes a breath "do I even want to know what he did" "oh he got suspended more than once only got worse as we got older...every time the phone rang and it was the school Camille wanted to strangle him. It wasn't until Hank practically interrogated him they realised it was because me they let up a bit. Pretty sure they wanted to strangle us on the days he was suspended" she laughs "mum just passed you off to Camille" "she couldn't handle me don't blame her I was pretty intense and that only got worse after I was around Hank and Justin...I was hanks favourite girl before you say anything he always said Camille was his wonderful perfect woman. Hank indulged me much to Camille's displeasure. Justin well he was up for anything and he included me in everything. His probably one of the main reason I grew up so quick i was already doing a lot of the things the big kids did" I shrug "dad use to stop past and pick me up there was a bet of who I would go to first sometimes it was dad sometimes it was Hank" she laughs "I was always so jealous of how close you are with them" I shrug smiling.
"Jay right" he looks stunned. We were in a cafe. We didn't come together obviously. "I'm good with faces" I add "oh uh" "Allison" "yeah...there's a case around the corner" I nod "bartellis" he looks at me "the Italian place I don't know that's what it looks like to me" he smiles "what are you doing here" "oh dance studio is around the corner I always sit in here for an hour or so doing school work if I can't focus on it at the studio" he nods that's when I see his order. "Coffees for everyone" I said as he tries to juggle it. I pick my one coffee before taking the tray on top causing him look at me confused. "I have an hour" I shrug and begging to walk away "what are you waiting for" I ask causing him to rush after me. "So is this you snooping on the case or are you just avoiding schoolwork" "hmm a bit of both" I shrug
"Coffees" "Allie" Dad said confused "yeah Jay invaded my coffee shop" I shrug handing the coffees out. "So what happened is Dianne dead" I ask making them all look at me "the studio is a street away of course I know things" I add rolling my eyes "did you tell her it was here" dad demanded angrily stepping towards Jay. "He didn't have to the signs right there...I was just my kind polite self and offered to help" "sorry but you aren't kind Allie" Erin said "well today I am" I shrug smiling innocently.
Dad walks over wrapping his arm around me "dad why are we walking away" "oh you thought I was going to let you into the sense" he laughs out making me sigh and roll my eyes. It was pretty far fetched. "Don't you have places to be" "nope so was it a murder robbery both" I ask he just shakes his head laughing "your persistent" "ohh who do I get that from I wonder you Hank or Justin maybe Camille" I list making him smile "so who did it" "would be investigating if we knew" "right who do you think did it" he shrugs "something off about it" "something is always off daddy" he pulls me closer kissing my head the whole time leading me away.
