Kylie looks at Mel. "How?" "Well, you two are not the first and only couple with an age gap. More specifically, Kylie is over 18 and Malia is still a minor. Now, all we have to do is prove that you've never had sex. It's not a crime to be dating someone a year younger than you." Mel points out. "That's true. But how are we gonna prove that? It's our word against the state." Malia asks as she holds Kylie's hand. "A lie detector test. We get both of you to take the test, we show up to court with the results, proving you've never slept together and Kylie will be in the clear." Mel smiles. "I don't know, that seems too easy." Kylie shakes her head.
"They'll also be asking the others about you two. The cast of Red and HSM the series, since the time that you guys were filming overlaps the time that you were on the show, Kylie. So they think that the cast might know something." Mel shrugs. "How? They've never even met Malia." Kylie asks. "But they know you, and the time that you were on the show, you were also filming Red. They think that maybe the cast might have seen or heard something." Malia sits in silence, trying to process everything. Her girlfriend was going to court, for statutory rape of all things. They never even did anything. Mel notices Malia spacing off and stops Kylie from talking. She nods towards Malia. Kylie glances over and nods. Mel nods before grabbing her hand. "You're gonna be fine. Both of you." She whispered. She kisses her on top of the head, purely out of affection. These two weren't just manager and client, they were best friends after all. Mel gives them some privacy as she follows up with the lawyer.
Kylie turns to Malia and gently caresses her hair. Malia's breathing starts to get heavy as she thinks of all the possible ways this could end. Only one ends well and the rest, not so well. Kylie quickly pulls Malia's knees up to her chest before hugging her tight. She's seen this before. The last time Malia had a panic attack was when she was worried no one would like the movie before it came out. After struggling to calm her down, Kylie took it upon herself to study up on anxiety, panic attacks and finding the best ways to calm her down for the next time it happens. "Shh baby, calm down. Calm down, your CRPS, remember? You gotta calm down." Kylie holds her close and tight. Malia tries to focus on her breathing and Kylie's heartbeat. After a minute, Kylie slowly lets go. "Look, all of our friends and family are gonna be there to support us and give their testimony. No one is gonna send me to jail. They can't. They don't have proof and they won't ever find proof. We haven't had sex yet." Malia looks at her and smirks. "Yet." Kylie blushes and smiles. "Yet." She nods. "And we won't until after you turn 18." "Ugh, can it be December already?" Malia frowns. "Malia!" "What? I'm just saying...." Kylie smiles as she shakes her head. "Damn it, boo."
Soon, maybe too soon, it was time for the trial. As they ride in the car together, holding hands. Kylie rubs her thumb on Malia's hand while Malia nearly breaks her hand, but Kylie doesn't mind. As they get closer to the building, they notice thousands of fans outside with signs. Love is Love! Kylie is innocent! Kylie & Malia ❤️🩵 "Damn, these fans don't play around." Kylie looks out the window at all the fans that showed up. "I told you when you signed that contract Ky, you are in for a wild ride." Mel smiles. "Come on, let's go say hi to everyone." "Everyone? Who else is here?" Kylie looks at her. "Are you kidding? More who isn't." They step out of the car and say hi to the fans, signing some posters and taking pictures. "I can't believe you have to go through this Kylie. You don't deserve this." Kylie smiles and brushes it off. "Well, thank you for your support and standing by me all this time regardless."
They notice a couple of familiar faces they haven't seen in a while. "Xochitl? Oh my god, Xochitl! How are you?!" Malia gives her old Babysitters co-star a hug. "I've been good, well, i was until i heard you got a girlfriend now?" She smirks. Malia blushes lightly. "Yeah, Kylie. I love that girl." "And then i heard said girlfriend got accused of statutory rape." Malia sighs. "Yeah, i promise we haven't done anything. Anyways, how was Dancing with the Stars?" Xochitl nods. "It was good, you should convince your girlfriend to do it next season, I've seen her dance videos, she'd kill it. Guarantee win." Malia glances back at Kylie who meets her eyes and smiles before going back to her conversation with her HSM the series co-stars. "I'll see what i can. But i gotta talk to her manager too, see how her schedule looks."
"She's beautiful." Matt tells her. Kylie turns back and smiles. "She is." She agrees. "Congrats." "Oh don't tell me that yet. Let's just see if i win this thing first." Kylie sighs. "Kylie, you can't think like that." Dara rubs her arm. "I can't help it. What if i lose this thing?" Sofia shakes her head. "You said they don't have proof, even if they did, you guys didn't do anything....did you?" She asks. Kylie shakes her head. "No, we didn't do anything." Dara raises her eyebrow. "Ok, maybe we did something but i never touched her! I swear!" Kylie smiles. "But you wanted to...." Ruby gives her a look. "Where the hell did you come from?" Kylie looks around to see the rest of the Red cast getting out of their cars. "Nevermind." "I'm everywhere Ky!" Ruby laughs. "So am i." Mel throws her arm around Kylie and Ruby. "Jesus fucking christ, Mel! Where did YOU come from?!" Ruby nearly has a heart attack. "My parents?" She jokes. "Very funny." Ruby rolls her eyes. "Love you too Rube." She smiles. "Anyways, we should get in that courtroom. All of us." They all nod and head inside. "So you're gonna sit here, Malia will be right behind you, ok? Now they're gonna ask some of your HSM co-stars some questions about your relationship with Malia, and they'll definitely ask the Red cast. Just be truthful, you didn't do anything. You'll be fine. Malia," Mel looks at her from behind Kylie, "if they call you up there, your mother has to be there with you, you're still a minor." "Don't remind me." Malia mumbles. "My point is, don't worry. They don't have proof that you slept together because you never did. We're gonna win this." Kylie nods as she holds Malia's hand from behind. "The court calls the state of California against Miss. Kylie Lorena Cantrell for statutory rape against a minor. Miss. Cantrell, how do you plead?" The lawyer that Mel hired stands. "Not guilty, your honor." "Then let's begin."
