"So... what now?" I ask pulling their attention to me.
"We could drop Shane off, and go to see my parents." Karma answers cutting off Shane's impending answer.
"I really wanna go, but I don't wanna get a guitar shoved up m-"
I have to cut Shane off by covering his mouth with my hand, "... Did you just lick me?" I ask pulling my hand away from his face.
"Yes I did." He says as smug as possible and sits back in his seat, turning his head in the other direction.
"Karma, let's go." I say while wiping my hand off on my shirt and standing, immediately followed by Karma standing next to me, and Shane looking over at us and standing.
We all walk out and pile into my car, with me in the driver seat and Karma next to me. I pull out of the parking lot and make my way to Shane's house.
Thirty Four Minutes Later
As I pulled the car in the county jail parking lot, I grew incredibly nervous. Like, "About to meet the parents for the first time" nervous, but in a different way.
I grabbed my keys and left the car, making my way over to Karma's side to open the door for her. She slowly got out, she looked determined yet pissed. I didn't even have to see it to know I looked like a chihuahua, shaking in my boots at the mere sight of Karma's held in rage. We walked into the facility, and I realized I was gonna be strip searched which wasn't a problem for me, but I didn't know if I had anything illegal to carry in the building with me. I knew I had to keep my cool, because if I lost it I would have had to immediately leave.
After the strip search, I met up with Karma and we were allowed to visit her parents. Turns out they were put in different holding cells, and we had to watch them both be escorted in by officers. We were sat down at tables face to face but we weren't allowed to touch but more than two hugs. As soon as Karma saw them she instantly charged at them, pulling them into a group hug. I walked in behind her and sat down.
"Mom, Dad. I... Uh... Before we got in here we found out your bail could be up to 10,000 dollars... But the highest they can keep you in here for is two years and the lowest is a year and a half."
"Karma. I don't want to pressure you but, could you please find a way to get us out of here. Some girls in here get the wrong impression of me." My eyes widen as Karma's mother blushes. I turned my head and saw a girl seated a few seats away from us, in the process of winking at Molly.
"Mom, of course. We'll find a way to get your bail money and we'll get you out of here."
This is where I definitely had to intervene. "Karma." I nudged her, "Where are we gonna get 20,000 dollars from?" She doesn't say a word but rather gives me this look and I know exactly what she's thinking. Liam. "Fine." Looking her parents in the face I couldn't say no, not knowing the horrors that await them when they return to their cells.
"Yay. Hopefully we can get you out of here in a day or so." Once she says those words, she pops out of her seat and gives them another hug. Still excluded from the hug, I walk towards the exit to wait for Karma.
Once she finishes hugging them, she walks over to me and we leave... Not before getting searched again. "Uh... Not trying to be rude but what could we possibly be sneaking out of the building?" The guard just rolls his eyes and finishes searching me. I stand on the other side, until Karma finishes getting searched. We leave, and she looks so sad as we're getting in the car, I feel almost obligated to do something special.
*Karma's P.O.V.*
I lean myself on the car door, and stare out the window while Amy's driving. It's mainly just at the ground but I can still see around it. We haven't said much this whole car ride other than Amy saying, "You okay, babe?" And me telling her I'm fine. Eventually, we came to a stop and when we did I looked up to see a laser tag arena. It didn't look too busy either.
Amy got out of the car, and opened my door. I unbuckled my seat belt and she took my hand. She tugged slightly but I didn't budge. I whined, "Carry me?"
Amy, of course, had a cute remark, "You know, I always pictured me saying that to you but with an M at the beginning."
"Well, aren't you sweet? Now pick me up." She did as I asked and carried me inside, with my legs wrapped around her waist, and my arms wrapped around her neck.
The manager stared at us when Amy walked in. When Amy walked up to the counter to pay, she slid me over to one side and carried me like a toddler. When she did this, I could see some familiar faces in the distance sitting in the waiting lobby. I didn't wanna leave Amy's grasp, but she brought Shane, Liam, and Lauren. Shane waved while Lauren looks kinda pissed but not enough to yell, and Liam is staring off in the distance. I don't bother leaving Amy, as she's finished buying our entry bracelets, putting them on our wrists, and explaining why I'm on her hip to the cashier. Amy gets a better hold on me, then takes us over to the group. I hop off of her, before Liam sees me so it'll be easier to persuade him later. Amy starts off, "So guys, do you have your bracelets?" They all showed us their bracelets. "Alright, let's go."
