Okay so today is the day of the trial. I am so nervous that I brought up and old habit of mine- pacing back and fourth while biting my nails. I think Drew can sense it because he puts his hand on my cheek and reassures me that everything is going to be okay.
"Trust me everything with go just fine"
"How do you know that?"
"Babe, the guy almost killed me, and he hit you and threatened you. They have all the evidence they need, so they can send him back to whatever he'll hole he came from" I laugh at that
"Thanks but I can't help it. A guy that I have been afraid of for 2 years finally will be rightfully charged for jail- I hope"mutter to myself
"Don't worry Claire bear. We will all be there with you including your dad" Kayla says - wait my dad?!
"My dads coming?" I say excited because this will be the first time I have seen him since the funeral
"Yes, he said he won't get to miss tags bastard be put behind bars" Kayla said
--------
"Daddy!" I see my dad and go running up to him. He pulls me into a hug that could last forever until someone cleared their throat
"Excuse me, it's time" my lawyer aka aunt Mary said
"You ready?" Drew said
"As ready as I'll ever be" I say nervously
We sit down in our seats and a few minutes later the judge walks in so everyone stands up.
"You may be seated. Today's case is: Claire Summers against Chase Mitchell for assault and battery. Okay let's get started.
"The jury calls Brandon Scott to the stand"
"Mr Scott, can you tell me what happened the night of April 15?" Mary says
"Yes m'am. Okay so we were all hanging out at the abandoned park because that was our hangout place waiting for chase because Claire said that she just wanted to talk and then all of a sudden Chase comes up and starts yelling at Claire because she had her boyfriend with her"
"What were his exact words?"
"I'm not jealous, I can have any girl I want when I want"
"And then what happened?"
"Why don't we let the video explain Mrs. Holt"
She presses play on the video:
"I didn't think you would bring him with you" chase says anger clearly in his voice
"Oh what's the matter jealous?"
"Haha yeah right, I can have any girl I want but I want to have you"
"You will never have me after what you did!" I shout.
"Don't you dare yell at me after what I did for you!"
"What you did for me?! YOU KILLED MY BEST FRIEND PROBABLY THINKING IT WAS ME! Your a monster and that's all you'll ever be. And I pity the woman who ever wants to-
He slaps her flat across the face. Then Andrew goes lunging at him. They are in a. Full blown fight.
"Andrew"
Nothing he just keeps punching and so does Chase.
"Please Drew Stop!"
