its been 5months since Christian killed the rapist who we soon found out his name was Josh McKnightly. (random name) the court date is today and I'm with him every step of the way.I sighed as I walked into the courthouse. I saw him in an orange jumpsuit sitting on the bench. I walked over and sat next to him. He stared at my baby belly. I smiled as he put a hand on it and hugged me. "I love you and I've missed you so much." I cried into his shoulder.

"I know an it's all my fault Chels it was the biggest mistake I ever made and I don't even know what I was thinking." he said pulling me closer.

"the Beadles McKnightly Murder Trial will now begin all rise. Your Honor Judge Jack Galloway residing." the man who stood by the judges seat thingy said. Everyone stood as the judge entered. "please be seated" he said as everyone sat. "the Beadles McKnightly Murder Trial will now begin. Mrs. MicKnightly's (the rapists wife) attorney will now call people to the stand.

"thank you" the attorney said "ofense calls Mrs. McDonald to the stand." I got up and walked to the seat thingy beside the judge. "Mrs. McDonald where were you on the day in question?"

"at home"

"where you there when Mr. Beadles killed Mr. McKnightly?"

"yes I was."

"interesting... Where were you?"

"hiding from Mr. McKightly who, I might add, broke into my house and when I was 15 raped me."

"I see. And was he trying to rape you again?"

"I believe so."

"how are you so sure?"

"I'm not. I was hiding with my son in the closet when everything went down so I have no idea what happened."

"I see. What about the weapon."

"look I have no idea what happened out there. I was texting Mr. Beadles because I was scared then out of no where he came and shot Mr. McKnightly. I did hear a lot of banging and things falling before the gun shots though so I believe it was only self dedense."

"no more questions."

"Mrs. McDonald you may leave the stand." the judge said. I nodded and walked back to the bench and hugged Christian.

"Mr. Beadles to the stand." the snob of an attorney said. I was so freaking tired. I slowly started dozing. I fell asleep shortly after

***

I slowly woke up to Christian shaking me. My eyes shot open. "they're about to make the desision!" he whispered. I sat up. A man on the end of the Jury stood up. "the Jury finds Mr. Christian Beadles not guilty of murder based on the facts that it was self defense." I emeditally hugged him as tight as I could. "your not going to jail!" I screamed as he picked me up and spun me around and put me down. "god your heavy!" he said breathing heavily. I slapped his arm "I'm carrying your child so don't you pull that your heavy crap!" I said furiously.

"oh Chels I didn't mean it like... I'm sorry..." he sighed.

I laughed "I'm kidding." he slapped me in the arm and I slapped him back. He slapped me again. "This. Means. War." now he's scared. Yeah boiiiiii!!!!!
