Better The Second Time Around

The Consequence

"Emily?..Emily,...Emily wake up"

I woke up to the sound of Drake's voice. My eyesight was blurry and seemed to be moving. I blinked my eyes a couple of times to improve my eyesights blurry state.

A few moments later my eyesight seem to be normal again. But head hurts like hell as if it was about to crack my skull open.

"Where are we?" I asked as I observed my surroundings. I noticed a few other cubicle cells just like the one I'm in with a dozen of long black steels by the front. What the f*ck we're in a prison cell.

I sat up and massaged my temples with my fingers.

"What are we doing in a prison cell?! We have to get out of here!" I said with a frantic tone. "Oh my god, my parents will be so mad at me"

"Hey, don't worry my lawyer will take care of this we'll be out in a couple of minutes, I promise" he stared at me with a reassuring look. I heaved out a sigh of relief by Drake's reassurance

"Are you okay?" Drake gave a me a concerning look as he ran his hands in a up down motion on my back

"I would be ok if it wasn't for my splitting headache" I said with a little smile

"That really tends to happen when you drink a lot of alcoholic beverages, but don't worry I know just the thing" he winked

I asked Drake a few questions about what happened at last nights party since I only remember a few due to drunkness. Talking to Drake also seemed to make me feel better since my mind keeps of running scenarios and theories of me getting scolded by my parents etc. good thing Drake was there to keep me preoccupied.

"Mr. Drake Thompson and Ms. Emily Anderson" a buff police guy said with a deep tone. Drake and I stood up and approached the police guy who was behind the bars. "You're free to go" he said with a solemly. Uggh! Thank God!!

Drake and I approached his lawyer who was signing a few papers for our release. Once he was finished he went to our direction with a broad smile on his face.

"Good to see you Mr. Romerro" Drake said as he reached out his hands to greet Mr. Romerro.

"Well, it's been a while since the last time you got involved into trouble Mr. Thompson" he said and shooked Drake's hands. "I already took care of everything Mr. Thompson" he smiled
"Good" Drake said with a firm tone. "Oh, and one more thing Mr. Romerro, I don't want our parents to know about this understood?" He expalined solemnly

"Don't worry Mr. Thompson I will make sure none of this will get both your parents ears"

Drake gave him a firm nod and dismissed his lawyer.

"How many times exactly have you been in this kind of trouble?" I flashed him a playful frown.

"Nah, to many to count,..Anyways We better leave right now, your parents will probably soon find out that you ran away if we don't get moving" he reminded

"Good idea"

As soon as I stepped outside, the bright sun kissed my skin with a warm sensation that made me feel better, although the sun was shining so bright that I had to squint my eyes to reduce its brightness, and it only made my headache worse. Kind of like a vampire seeing daylight for the first time with an axe splitting it's skull open, that was what I felt. Shity right?

Drake fetched his car from the parking lot while I waited outside the police station. I was very cautious of the people that pass me by. You never know whenever someone takes a picture of you standing outside a police station and starts to post it out in social media, tv's, or newspaper. But With just one wrong move,..boom my name would be buzzing around social media. So I have to be really careful
