Sam's POV:

As I came back from the bathroom I realized Colby wasn't at his locker. I then panicked as I opened his locker. Luckily, his bag was still there. "Sam, what's up?" I turned to see Jake and Tara walking my way. "Colby's missing," I told them. Jake and Tara's eyes widened. "What do you mean missing?" Tara asked me. "I mean I know he's here since his bag is in his locker but I don't know where he is," I responded. "Let's go look for him," Tara said. We then looked inside the school but couldn't find him. We then went outside and saw that he wasn't by his tree either.

"Dude, try calling him to see where he's at," Jake suggested. "Good idea," I responded. I then took out my phone and called Colby. Our eyes widened as we heard a phone ring nearby. "That has to be Colby!" I exclaimed. We then ran in the direction the phone was ringing. The ringing brought us to the back of the school. "Colby!" I called as I saw Colby laying on the floor as he was terribly beaten. I then ran up to him and hugged him. "Baby, what happened?" I asked him.

"Nothing," Colby responded. "Baby, who did this?" I asked him. "I don't know I was dragged from behind," Colby added. I sigh as I knew that he was lying. I then picked him up and decided to go home. "I'll see you guys tomorrow," I told them. I then went to our lockers and picked up our bags and put Colby down as we walked home. All evening Colby was being cold and distant with me. I decided to ask him again about what happened. "Colby, what really happened?" I asked as we lay together in bed watching YouTube. Colby sighed as he looked at me. "Ok, ok, it was Sarah, she dragged me to the back of the school and beat me up," Colby explained. "That Bitch!" I snapped as I slammed my fist onto the bed.

"She threatened me with a pocket knife that if I don't break up with you, she'll kill me. I just don't know what to do," Colby sobbed into his hands. "I don't want to lose you, Sam, I love you so much." "I love you too baby and I promise that I won't let Sarah hurt you much less kill you," I assured him as I hugged him. "Really?" Colby asked me. "Really," I told him as I pecked his lips.

Third Person POV:

It was now the day Colby's innocence will finally be proven. Sam and Colby were at their lockers when Jake and Tara showed up. "Hey guys," Jake greeted. "Hey brother," Sam greeted back as Colby waved. "So what really happened to Colby yesterday?" Tara asked. Sam looked at Colby who nodded his head as he motioned for Sam to tell them. Sam explained everything that Colby told him yesterday. "That Bitch!" Tara snapped. "Don't worry Bubba, we'll protect you no matter what," Jake assured Colby.

Time Skip

It was now lunchtime and it was time for the meeting. "Samuel! Cole!" Sam and Colby turned to see Evangeline and Gabriel walking their way. Evangeline was dressed as a teacher while Gabriel was dressed as a janitor. "Gabriel! Evangeline! You made it!" Sam called. "Colbaby!" Colby turned to see Lesa walking toward him. "Momma, you made it!" Colby called as he hugged his mom.

Soon, they all walked to Principal Smith's office. Once there, everyone sat on the chairs provided by Principal Smith. "Principal Smith, I'm Evangeline Parker and I was a substitute teacher the day the answer sheets were stolen," Evangeline said. "Principal Smith, I'm Gabriel Peters and I was a janitor that same day," Gabriel added. "Principal Smith, my son is innocent and I believe he was framed," Lesa said. "Principal Smith, I too believe that Colby is innocent and I can prove it," Sam added.

"Principal Smith, don't all classrooms have surveillance cameras?" Evangeline asked. "Of course they do," Principal Smith replied. "Well let's check the surveillance footage and maybe we can see who actually stole the answer sheets," Lesa said. Principal Smith then called Sarah and once she arrived, she then checked the footage of that day, and sure enough, it showed Sarah entering the classroom and stealing the answer sheets. Sarah was also seen on another camera hugging Colby while also sneakily slipping the answer sheets into his locker. "I can't believe it," Principal Smith said. "Principal Smith, I saw Sarah that day leaving with some papers," Evangeline said. "I also saw Sarah place some papers on this young man's locker," Gabriel also added.

"Sarah Rogers, I'm very disappointed in you. I have no choice but to suspend you for a week. As for you Cole, I deeply apologize and I will let Ms. Rodriguez know as well," Principal Smith said. "You can all leave now." Everyone thanked Principal Smith and left the office. "Thank you all for proving my innocence," Colby thanked them. "No problem Cole, now you both run along to class," Evangeline said with a smile on her face. Sam grabbed Colby's hand and they both left for class.
