« Diamond's Pov »

"So all of them are in jail..." Hannah repeats what I just told her and I nod, bringing my hand up and running it through my hair. I sniffle and Hannah passes me a box of tissues. "I feel like we are missing some people, aside from our friends."

Both of us look around the room and I shrug, shaking my head. "I don't think we are missing anybody. You are the only one who didn't go to jail and Crystal and Aiden are in the guest bedrooms."

Her eyes widen slightly. "The guys' kids, where are they at?!" My eyes widen too and both of us stand up from the stools and we grab our jackets and things.

"Mom where are you guys going?" We look up to see Valerie and Crystal.

"We are gonna go get your Uncle and Aunts kids, can you call one of them and ask where they are at?" I asked and Crystald takes out her phone. She hands it to me and I go through her contact list. I press on Hailey's name and she answers after the third ring. "Hailey! Where are you guys?"

"Diamond my parents went to jail!" She exclaims through the phone. "My brother and I are not capable of living alone just yet!"

"Hailey, listen to me. Where are you and the other kids, we are coming to get you guys." I told her. She tells us where they are at, they were still at the airport.

Hannah and I get in our cars and drive all the way back to the airport. When we got there, a few of the girls looked like they have been crying.

"Okay, half of you guys ride with Hannah and the other half you will ride with me," I tell the kids and they all get inside our cars quickly.

"So basically this is all your fault that my parents are in jail?" Dylan, Ashton and Patricia's son, asked me with an angry look on his face.

I nod slowly, feeling really guilty about it. This is all my fault, well my mom and John's fault.

"Hey, it's not entirely Diamond's fault, Dylan. So just be quiet and stop blaming her for this." Yasmin, Dylan's sister, says and she gives him a glare. I thank Yasmin and she nods, smiling at me. "But, are our parents going to get out of jail soon?"

"Hopefully, Hannah is working on a plan." I said and I look over at Hannah, she does the same. She gives me a confused look and I give her a sign saying to play along.

"O-Oh right, I am. I'm trying my best
to get all your parents out of jail, I just need some time." Hannah says and all of them nod. "For the meantime, you guys will be staying with me."

Connor, Chris and Eve's son, raises his hand up. I nod at him to speak.

"Um, we left our things at the hotel we were staying at, can you we go get them or not?" Connor asked.

"A few of you will come with me to get everybody's things, the rest stay here with Hannah." I said, standing up from the stool I was sitting on. I grabbed my car keys and head out the door, Hailey, Yasmin, Dylan, and Connor come with me.

When we get to the hotel, the kids run upstairs with the hotel cards in their hands and begin to go inside all the rooms and grabbing/ packing everybody's things. Soon the kids come back with loads of luggage. How are we going to fit all of that in my car?
