Max/Sadie imagines

Arrested part 5

"We find the defendant guilty of first degree murder."

Your eyes widen and tear up.

"N-no... no no. No please." You beg.

"You will be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole." The judge states.

Tears spill down your face. You turn behind you. Sadie, Millie, Noah, Gaten, Caleb, Finn, Maya and Natalia are all sat in shock. Pure shock. Sadie's eyes are full of tears. They're streaming down her face. She's devastated.

The officers stand you up. But your knees buckle from underneath you.

"Okay. C'mon. We got you."

They help you back to your feet and carry you off to your cell. You're never gunna see the outside world again.

You kinda just sit on your bed. Shock still running through your system. You're absolutely devastated.

Your cellmate walks into the cell and sees you.

"Oh god Y/n.... please dont tell me you got life."

You look at her, tears in your eyes. She knows. She stands in front of you and opens her arms. You stand up and she pulls you into a hug. You hug back and just cry. All the tears you possibly can. She just rubs your back until you manage to stop yourself.

"You should get some sleep. No doubt you're exhausted." She says.

You sniffle and nod. You pull back from the hug and just lay on your bed. You roll to face the wall and drift off to sleep.

Then you jolt awake. You sit up. Your cellmate is looking at you.

"Bad dream?" She asks.

You look at her and shrug.

"Yeah i guess." You say.

"Well, c'mon, you gotta get up. Your court hearing is in like an hour. You gotta look good for the judge and the jury."

You frown.

"That already happened. I got life with no parole. You walked in and asked. You knew." You say.

"Y/n i dunno what you're talking about. You were probably dreaming it cos you're a weirdo like that. Now c'mon. Get up. They even left you your clothes to change into. Get your ass ready. And if you get out, write to me. And leave your address on the letter so i know where to send back."

"That's so weird. I could've sworn it had already happened."

"Well it hasn't. And you haven't got life. Not yet and hopefully not at all. Now hurry up cos then guards to like to be kept waiting y'know."

"Yeah... yeah. Right okay." You say.

You stand up and get dressed. Your cellmate looks away while you change. Then you brush your teeth and sort out the mess on top of your head that's known as your hair.

"Okay. Do i look okay?" You ask.

She looks at you. She pulls a weird face and stands in front of you. The messes about with your hair and turns you too the mini mirror thing.

"Better?"

"Yeah actually. Thank you." You say.

"Not a problem. Now you just gotta sit and wait."

So you do. You wait about 4 hours and then the guard shows up.

"C'mon you. Lets get you, hopefully, freed."

This guard is on your side. Has been since you stepped through the doors here. He cuffs you and takes you away.

"If i get freed, is there any chance i can go back and give her a hug before i go?" You ask.

"You're gunna want to? Dont you have a girlfriend and a big group of friends to see?"

"Yeah i know but she's been on my side since i got here."

"Yeah i can do that then. I best get a hug too. I been on your side too."

You smile.

"I'll give you a hug too."

"Should think so too."

You chuckle and so does he. He gets you to the court room and walks you in. You look to where Sadie is. She's sat with Millie, Noah, Gaten, Caleb, Finn, Maya, Natalia and Joe. Joe wasn't in the dream. This could be a sign.

You sit down at your defense desk.

"All rise for the honourable judge Anderson."

Everyone stands. You've heard stories about this guy. You might not get so lucky today.

He walks in and takes a seat. You all then take a seat.

"Okay. Lets get this started."

Hours upon hours upon hours pass. It's literally been almost 9 hours. Around 8 and a half hours in the same room with the same faces. It's exhausting. The jury are taking their time.

"Y/n i heard about a little in prison incident a few weeks ago. You were injured am i correct?"

You nod.

"Yes sir."

"Are you feeling any better? I heard you were hospitalised."

"I'm better now. Just bruised in certain places." You say.

"Well I'm happy to hear you're okay."

"Yeah so am i." You say.

35 minutes pass and the jury walk out.

"Your honour we have made our verdict."

You get anxious. You put your head in your hands and start bouncing your legs.

"Your honour given the evidence we've been handed we find the defendant..."

You look up.

"Not guilty."

You feel a wave of relief rush over you.

"Y/n you've been given the not guilty verdict. You're free to go home. Court dismissed."

"We believe we know who did it."

Everyone in the room freezes and looks up.

"Who?" Judge Anderson asks.

"Given the current evidence and fingerprint DNA we have, we believe that the killer is the victims boyfriend of 4 years. Steven Anderson."

That's... the judge?

"Me?"

"Yes. Your fingerprints are on the criminal database from a petty crime you committed in your mid to late teens. We asked for the prints to be run and they came back as yours."

"Oh my god." Someone says.

The guards stand and arrest the judge. They take him away.

Eventually, you're free. You went back to your cell and gave your cellmate a hug. Then the guard and then you left. When out of the building, you see them all stood waiting for you.

Sadie is the first to spot you. You smile. She runs and jumps into your arms. You catch her and spin her a little. Then the others hug you.

"I'm so relieved that you didn't get life." Joe says.

"You should've felt the wave of relief that rushed me when they said not guilty." You say.

"I'm not surprised. Finding out it was the judge was like such a shocking twist. It was like that scene in like a horror/thriller movie when something happens that nobody was expecting." Gaten says.

"That caught me well off guard." You say.

Eventually, you all go to yours and Sadie's house. You all just chill on the sofa and watch movies. Sadie cuddled up into your side. She doesnt leave your side once. She's got you back and she will be damned if she's letting you go again.

HAPPY ENDINGS BITCHES! Finally! It's done. I couldnt actually have you get life in prison. The twist tho... zayum. Am i bringing back my seriously shocking twists? Maybe. Maybe not. Haven't really decided yet.

Either way, hope yall enjoyed. Thank you for your patience. Adios bitches!
