Warped Love

Shelby's POV

"Don't I get a phone call? Or at least some damn food! I've got the munchies!" I yell at the officers who are literally just pacing by my holding cell. It was 5, I should be at a signing right now. Not here. But I couldn't let my band know that I was here since they confiscated all my stuff.

Finally my cell door opened and I was allowed to one phone call. Even though I knew I would get my head ripped off by calling Parker, I did so.

"WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU" is the first thing I hear yelling at my ear. The officers probably thought I was talking to my mom, not my best friend. Although, Parker was like a mom. "Um.. jail." I mumble. Silence. "ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS! WE WERE WORRIED SICK ABOUT YOU, YOU JUST DISAPPEARED AND NO ONE HAD HEARD FROM YOU. I HATE YOU SO MUCH YOU SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME BUT I'M ON MY WAY TO GET YOU" She hung up after that. I shrug my shoulders and hang up. Typical Parker, do something wrong and you just get yelled at but it's fine after that.

15 minutes later I see Parker walk into the front lobby. She asks to see me then walks over. She crosses her arms over her chest and tilts her head. My best friend. My best friend that has always been there for me. Who has bailed me out of jail multiple times before this. With her bright red dyed hair and sparkling eyes, I always said she was Leda Bunny's twin. "So, what was it for this time?" Is always the first thing she says to me. I lean on the bars and look up at her. "Oh, nevermind. I figured it out." I chuckled and smiled. She sighs then smiles, "I'm glad you're okay." I nod. She walks over to the officers and talks to them. I see her using that look that always gets what she wants. I see her smile and walks over to me. "You're free." They unlock my cell and we walk out.

"You're such an idiot." Parker says to me as we walk back to the venue. "I know, I know. It's just been hard for me. So much stuff is going on and I don't know how to handle it. I miss Michael. And I know that may sound stupid since we haven't known each other for that long, but I love him. There. I said it. I finally fucking said it out loud. I love him." Parker stops walking and stares at me. I keep my head down. "You really love him?" I nod. She comes over to me and hugs me. "I know how hard it is to finally open up to someone after what you went through, but just know that I'm here for you. He seems to treat you really well and make you happy." She says into my ear. I hug her back, holding back the tears, "Thank you Park. For everything. I love you." She hugs me tighter, "Love you too, Shel."
