FIXING : GD

Jennifer's POV

"Don't I get a call?" I say looking down at my hands.
"What?"
"Aren't you supposed to get a call while you're in jail?"
"Uh, yes."
"Then can I have my call?"

The cop at the desk shifts to my jail cell and walks me over to the phone.

'Okay, who can you call? Mom? No she just left for that conference. Liam? No, he's at college. Luke? He's a freshman. That leaves dad.' I think to myself.

I pick up the payphone and dial my dad's number.

"Hello?"
"Dad!"
"Jenny? What's up?"
"Can you come pick me up please?"
"Where are you? What's wrong?"
"I kinda got arrested."
"You what?!"
"They said my car was illegal or something. I don't know daddy, but I'm scared."
"Okay, don't respond to anything you don't need to. I'll be there as soon as I can."

"Times up miss." The cop says.
"Okay, one second please."

"I'm coming okay, don't worry."

"Sorry, times up." The cop hangs up the phone and pushes me back into cell. I sit down on a bench and look up at the clock, 10:28.

"Jennifer Parker?"
"Yes?" I look up from my hands.
"Can I ask you a few questions?"
"Uh, I guess I don't really have a choice!"

I stand up and follow a huge cop into a conference room.

"Can you tell me about your car?"
"Um. It's a black Cadillac Escalade."
"Yes, but where did you get it?"
"I don't think I have to answer that."
"I didn't mean to offend you miss, I'm just doing my job."
"Okay and I'm just executing my rights as a citizen."
"Alright, I'm not trying to upset you."
"I'd rather just wait for my dad to come please. He's a lawyer and I trust him more than I do you."
"Okay you're not in trouble Miss. Parker, I'm just trying to ask a few questions."
"And my answer is that I'm silent until my dad gets here."
"Alright fine."

The guy leaves and I lean back in my chair. 50 minutes later my dad shows up. He talks to the cop outside and comes in with him, 11:54.

"Hey honey."
"Hi dad." I hug him and he sits down next to me.
"Sweetie, where'd you get your car?"
"Um..." I look at the cop.
"It's okay, you can answer the question."
"Mom gave it to me as a birthday present."
"Where did your mom get the car?"
"I think her boyfriend got it."
"Can I have a name for him?" The cop says leaning over the table.
"Uh yeah. Derek Rodriguez."

My dad and the cop exchange a look.
"What? Dad what's going on?"
"Where's Emma now?"
"She's in Philly for a conference, and then she was gonna visit Derek."
"Do you have his address?"
"In my phone."
"I will go get your phone then."

The cop walks out and my dad rubs his hands on his legs.
"What is happening dad?"
"Derek Rodriguez is a wanted criminal."
"Oh my god! Mom's dating a criminal? I'm actually driving an illegal car?"
"Relax Jen. The police are going to find him and take care of him."
"Promise?"
"I promise, your mother will be fine."
"Thanks dad!" I put my head on his shoulder.

The cop comes back in and asks my dad to step out with him. They give me back my phone, and I tell them his address. I get all my stuff back and I wait in the lobby. My leg shakes up and down and I flip my phone in my hands. I take my hair out and look at my phone I have no connection on my phone, 1:06.

Grayson's POV

I keep looking down at my phone. Zero texts or calls from Jenny. I thought she was different than other girls, I thought she was one of the good ones, but I guess I was wrong. Where the hell is she? I have to go back to class soon, 1:02. I pay for my drink and start walking back to class. I decide to text Jenny and look at all the texts I've sent her.

'hey where r u?'
'r u still coming?'
'if ur ditching me u could tell me so i dont look like an idiot sitting here.'
'thought u were different, guess not.'
'thanks for blowing me off.'

When I get to the school I see Luke walking out. He walks faster and faster and I hear the bell ring. Where is he going? I shake him out of my thoughts and rush to my next class.
