Faded (Minishaw)

Ch. 28

Simon's POV

I'm ruined after talking to Harry, he is having such a rough time, but I am as well, I explained everything to him, but he does not care that he is in danger because off me, but I care, I don't want him to get hurt, but he did get hurt, he was worse off than I thought he would be. Lucy then comes as she knows that I'm very upset.

"I just want to go back"

"I know" she tells me as she hugs me

"there is so much that I want to tell him, I just can't bare to think what he has been going trough"

"hey, don't do this to yourself, you've been trough just as much, don't play your pain like it's no big deal, you are just hurting just as much as he is, he still has his friends and family around, you had to start over with no one, that's not easy, no one should be put trough that" she tells me and I know she is right.

"thank you for being here for me"

"anytime" she tells me as she hugs me tight, then she goes and buys us ice-cream and we just watch a stupid rom-com to forget what is going on, it does not really work as I keep thinking about Harry, he was so broken, all because off me, I broke him. 

-month later –

It's the final day off the trial, I'm sitting in the back room as always and the jury are just about to read out the verdict, they are about to say guilty or not guilty, I know what is at stake for me, If they are guilty then I'm free, They can't come after me if they are in jail, then I can go home, I can be with Harry again and all my friends, I will take Lucy with me that is for sure. But if they say not guilty then I can never see any off them again. Because they can't find me, my life is in the jury's hands.

I'm so nervous, I feel like I'm about to explode from the inside, I can't wait any longer. I feel like shit, I'm so nauseous, I might throw up, I so want them to be guilty, but what if there are not enough evidence to convict them, what if they get off

"stop Simon, you can't think like that" I whisper to myself as I stare at the screen that is in the room, just waiting for the jury to come back inside and tell us what they have decided. Lucy is texting me if I've heard anything yet, but I just can't respond right now, I'm to nervous

Then they finally come back in and take there seats, I've never been so nervous in my hole life, this is so awful. What if I can't go back. I don't want to brake Harry's heart again, but this would not only be braking his, it would be braking mine as well.

"Have the jury reached a verdict"

"we have your honor" the head of jury says and then hands the judge a peace off paper that will tell me my fate

"did everyone agree?" the judge asked

"yes" the head off jury tells her

"I here my judge you....."
