y/n's pov
Me and Xavier were just hanging out at the Wethervane, like we do every Wednesday night. Everything was good, we were drinking our coffees whilst talking about our lives.
'I'm just sick of no one believing me, Enid and Wednesday about the hyde. We all know it's Tyler, we just don't have the photographic evidence yet. We've seen him, in the woods doing what he does. I just feel like not one person is listening to what we are saying. We just want to keep people safe, including ourselves, you know?' I explain.
For weeks all 3 of us have been doing research and figuring out who this monster is. And we know, that it's Tyler. We just don't have the evidence. We'll get it, but it's taking way too long.
'I know baby, but I believe you, and I believe that all of you are gonna be able to do this. They'll realise some day soon that all along you were right okay? Promise' Xavier says, smiling and holding my hand from across the table.
All of a sudden, someone comes bursting through the door, the bell ringing. Xavier looks over to the door, and so do I, and see the sheriff walking over to our table.
'Hey sheriff, what's going on?' Xavier asks, a confused look on his face. 'Xavier Thorpe, you are under arrest for the suspicion of being the hyde. Anything you say or do can be used against you in the court of law' he says.
'Wh-What? Wait what the fuck?' Xavier stutters being pulled up by the policemen with the sheriff.
'Sheriff for weeks I've been telling you who the hyde is, if you came with me to see I could prove it, it's not Xavier, I know him, I know it's not him' I plead, tears welling in my eyes, along with his.
'Y/n I understand, but you will have to tell us this in your statement. For now, like I said, Xavier you're under arrest until further notice' the sheriff says.
'Please, sheriff I swear it's not me, you can ask everyone it's not fucking me please' a tear rolls down his cheek. 'Xavier, this is police orders. Again, people will need to state such things in their statement'.
They start to take Xavier out the café, me following behind lost for words.
'Xavier please I- fuck. Xavier I love you so much okay, I promise I'm gonna fix all this. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry' I break down in tears, my hands shaking. I walk out the building, following them out.
'Baby, I'm gonna be okay I promise, I love you so much okay? So much' he sobs looking back at me as he's shoved into the back of the police car.
Enid and Wednesday appear from round the corner, asking me what happened as the car drives away. I explain what happened, whilst sobbing into Enid's shoulder.
'Y/n, we're gonna fix this okay? It's gonna be okay' Enid says rubbing my back. Wednesday has her thinking face on, trying to decipher what we could do to get Xavier out of jail and put Tyler in.
I was heartbroken. Xavier was the one thing that kept me going, he wad my muse. And now I don't even know if I'll ever see him again.
'Guys. I had a vision this morning. Tyler's framed Xavier. I know it. We need to prove Tyler to be a lying monster, and get Xavier out of there. We'll do it. But it's gonna be hard. Understand?' Wednesday glares at us waiting for a response. Me and Enid both nod.
We head back to Nevermore, me still sobbing out of despair. My only goal now was to get Xavier back. I needed him, and I know he needed me. I cannot, and will not lose him.
