That year spent with each other was so full of up's and down's it was like getting to know each other all over again. We fought, defended each other against other students, fought some more, but one thing was apparent over all, we were blood and nothing would ever come between that. I graduated in 1991 and Heather refused to attend school in another state without me there. I decided if she was going back to Michigan that I would go too. I was 18 after all and didn't need permission to start my life. I moved in with my mom and her husband and things went ok for a while. Not sure where my life flipped but it was a complete upside down roller coaster of nothing but a hot damn mess. I got involved with the wrong crowd, My best friend was a druggie, and I dont think she has 1 sober day since I met her. My mother never believed me, but getting high never appealed to me and I just never did it. I never judged my friend for her behavior but it cost me in the end. I was out with my unruly gang one night and they decided to stop for a cigarette run, well That run ended up being a store theft of about 12 cartons of smokes and that landed me in jail for a shoplifting charge. My mom was going to leave my ass sit right there but Heather begged her not to, so she bailed me out. I got out of that incident only to find myself with the same group of people and in jail again 3 months later. We were out riding around and one of the girls said she needed to go to the mall to pick up some new sneakers. I decide to play it safe and stay in the car. 45 minutes later here she comes running with an arm load of clothes with security hot on her heels. She jumps in the car and screams to my friend to drive. That ended up in a major felony charge for all of us. Once again I had to call on my mom to hire me an attorney and after 14 days in jail and the girls testimony that I was innocen, I was released. During this time Heather, at the age of 15 became pregnant. My mother blamed me, saying my actions were rubbing off on my sister. She was made to have an abortion. I have never forgot it and my sister didn't either.
