HEATHER'S POV
I sat in front of the mirror, thinking about how i should approach Jacob. I stared at my perfectly curly, shiny hair that framed my face that had a fair bit of make up on. I shook my head to bring myself back down to earth. I quickly put more blusher and checked my eye liner or mascara hadnt run. I took a deep breath and stood up from the stool. Everyone was downstairs. I shouldnt of kept it this long because everyone would see me come down the stairs. Let's hope Jacob wouldn't. I brushed down my blue short dress that fit to my body. I looked over my outfit and decided to change. I panicked and went to the back of the wardrobe. I then cam across a dress I bought the other day for fun. It was long and gold. I smiled at it and put it on carefully. Then found my gold sandals because I didn't want to wear heels. I wanted to enjoy the night without pain in my feet!
I stood at the top of the stairs and took a deep breath. I looked over the crowd and could see my parents, Justin's and then... With JJ, Tiana, Cody and Katy, I saw Justin. My heart fluttered and knew everything would be okay, with him by my side. I lifted up my dress and took the first 4 steps. As I took the 5th I looked up and saw that everyone within the hall had their eyes on me. Justin made his way through the crowd and then ran up the stairs to me. He stood there, on the sixth step. It took him a while for him to finally extend his hand then link arms with me as I took it. He helped me to the stairs and as I got to the bottom, Justin couldn't wait much longer. He grabbed my hip and pulled it to him. He bit his lip as he looked at me.
'You, Heather, are the most eautiful girl here.' He then kissed me tenderly for a while till it was interupted by a tap on my shoulder. I left Justin's lips and spun my head round behind me. Justin still held my waist as I saw Jeremey and Claire, my foster parents, behind me. I left Justin and hugged them both at the same time. 'Oh My God, I've missed you both!' I said. 'We know honey, we've missed you too.' Claire said as I let go of her. 'Well, We will catch up later tonight, yeah? Enjoy Justin.' Jeremey said. I nodded my head and turned back to Justin as they left.
'Have you seen Jacob?' I said straight away. 'Don't you wanna wait? Enjoy the party. Enjoy us.' Justin pulled my to him again and was going in for a kiss before I pushed him away. 'I can't rest knowing there is a murderer in this house. But I do need to find Tom before we do.' I looked around and looked over the crowd, trying to spot Tom. 'Find Selena and you'll find him.' Justin said with a bitter voice. I ignored him and then saw Tom push through the crowd to get to somewhere. I looked worried so I quickly followed behind him. After grabbing Justin's wrist and pulling him along with me. Justin Hey to everyone we passed while I just pushed past them.
We got to where the caterers were and saw Tom push someone. I looked closer at the guys face. Brown short hair, brown eyes, looked about 26. IT WAS JACOB. Justin pulled me closer to him when he realised. 'Why is he talking to him?!' I said angrily. 'i'm gonna find out.' Justin said trying to brush past me. 'Justin,' I said as grabed his hand. 'Together.' I said smiling at him. He leaned in and kissed me on the cheek then took me to Jacob. 'Tom,' He said as we stood behind him. 'Jacob Sterling.' Justin said coldly.
'How do you know him?' Tom said, looking angry and worried. 'I think we should ask YOU that question.' I said, stepping in. Tom looked at Jacob who looked really furious back at him. 'Look what you've done bro.' Jacob said to him. I took a step back after I realised what he said. 'Please tell me thats not a nickname... He's not your real brother is he?' I clinged onto Justin's arm. I couldnt believe what he was saying. 'TOM!' I shouted which made a few people turn round. 'YES. OK? HE'S MY FUCKING BROTHER!' Tom shouted back. You-You were the other guy. You were the other guy who was there when Jacob shot my parents...I WENT OUT WITH A MURDERER!'I cried. My eye liner and mascara ran and I couldn't stop crying. 'I didn't shoot them! I didn't know they were dead till 3 days after. When you told me! James threatened me... that if I told anyone I would join your parents.' Tom tried to take my hand so he could apologise. 'DONT you touch me.' I gave Justin a look that said 'Call the police' and he took out his phone and pressed one button and it was done.
The police came through the doors and took Jacob or James or whatever his name was, out of the house. Tom went with them so he could tell them what happened that night.

JUSTINS POV
I told everyone to stay. It was half an hour ago that James and Tom got taken away. I left Heather to have some time to think. But I couldnt stay away from her much longer. Jeremey and Claire had already spoken to her. So I went up to her room and found her staring at a picture of her parents. 'Heather,' I said as i slipped my arm around her and sat next to her on the bed. 'It's done. all our hard work is over with. You can relax now. I want you to know how proud I am of you,' I saw Heather's tear drop on the picture, 'and how I know that they would be too.' Heather dropped the picture and turned into me. She spent the next 10 minutes crying into my shoulder. I rubbed her back and sang 'Fall' to her, slowed down and quieter.
***********************************************************************************************************
Heather came down, still looking beautiful and just danced the night away. No one questioned anything about tonight but she knew she woukd have to sometime. We didn't stop partying till 4AM, when everyone decided to turn in. I let Heather sleep by herself. To let her have some space. I sure needed time to think.
