Noas PoV

I have had a pretty great morning ... SO FAR. Woke up
With my hot girlfriend, shared some kisses and cuddles with said how girlfriend. Wanted her to absolutely rail me but couldn't because said girlfriend's sister was in the room so had to keep things PG13. Walked to school with my girlfriend and her sister, my girlfriend skated the whole way. Even my first class was ok. Today felt like a good day ... till my mom phoned saying she had a match for the dna. I called the girls to meet in the bathroom and that's where I am now. "Guys, my mom heard from the lab. She got the DNA results. There's a match" I look at tabby and Imogen. Tabby asks me "was it a football player?" As she clutches Imogen's arm. "No the match came from the blood on one of the cotton balls, not the locker room" I sadly reply because I know they thought it was a football player. "So our process of elimination worked?" Mouse asks me as I nod. "And now we know it wasn't a jock but some other creep at school" Faran says shocked as she leans against a stall. "These are all the names of the boys who donated blood. There are 66 of them, so one of these 66... is the person who did this to me ... and maybe tabby" Imogen stutters as she passes over the list. "So what happens now?" I ask wondering how they are feeling. "I'll take the list. My mom said she would talk to the DA, help us figure out next steps" tabby takes the list of Imogen sadly. Faran pushes herself off the wall "well, we have to retest those 66 boys...65 because it definitely wasn't Henry". "I don't think Hayden's on that list but obviously not her" I look at Imogen who looks slightly disgusted at the thought. "Or ash" mouse adds on as we all look at Imogen "or chip".

Hayden's PoV

As I'm heading to music I see Imogen come out of the library. "Sheriff Beasley any news?" She looks panicked and I can't hear what he's saying on the other end of the phone. "Wait for what?" Imogen asks giving me a shrug. Imogen then looks white, all the blood drained from her face when her phone drops. Then Imogen collapses to the floor "Imogen, Imogen" I scream dropping to hold my sister. "Somebody help me" I scream down the corridor holding my unconscious sister.

I left school early to check on my mom. I had study classes after lunch so technically I didn't need to be there anyway. Walking in the door I see my mom on the sofa with her drug dealer. "What the hell is he doing here?" I shout running back to grab the baseball bat beside the door. "Noa..." my mom starts but quickly stops when I lift the bat to his face "get the fuck out of my fucking house!". As he walks towards the door my mom's behind me "noa stop it!!". I point the bat closer to him "get the hell out of my house!!". My mom still coming behind me when we get to the front door "noa, listen to me... baby, listen to me. I called him. I needed the help". She leans me against the wall holding me "help? From him?" You don't need that kind of help mom! You had help! You had Hayden and grace helpline you" I shout. As he leaves my mom turns away from me leaving me crying against the wall.

Hayden's PoV

"You need to look after yourself better Imogen" I look at my sister laying on the nurses table. "Someone stole our mom's body Hayden" she doesn't even look at me and now I'm at breaking point. "You do realise we should have left this alone right? I mean the only reason this is happening is because you had to keep digging Imogen" I don't realise I'm shouting till I see Imogen's face, she looks scared of me. "I'm sorry Hayden" she whispers and I should have stopped there but I didn't. "Your sorry? Your sorry? Imogen did you ever stop and think about how I felt at us doing this to mom? Iv tried to be there and you continuously shut me out" I don't realise I'm crying to till I feel a tear running down my face. "I can't watch you obsess over this anymore. I can't look out for you when you aren't even slightly worried about your safety. Crazy Joe... A. Going to rosewood. Planning parties at our old house. Not once on any of these occasions have you thought about me" Imogen stands up cutting me off and she looks mad "that's because none of it is about you! It wasn't you that was harassed Hayden! It wasn't you that was chosen by A. It was me! You know what get out. Go if you're not going to help me then go". She's pointing to the door "I only want what's best for you and your safety ... even if you don't" I whisper walking to the door.
