Safe Place

Chapter Three

Aliyah's P.O.V

"Oh hell no send me to jail for the rest of my life I don't care it's better than this idea." I begged Voight, but he just turned to the detective who's name I finally learned to be Antonio. "Come on Aliyah let's get your bags from your apartment", Antonio said while uncuffing me.

"This is a joke right you both are playing me and he's actually just taking me back to the holding cells." I said trying to get out of this stupid arrangement. "Nope do I look like the type of person to joke around" Voight said with obvious amusement in his voice. "See you tomorrow", he said satisfied with what he's done.

Antonio led me to his car and then he took off to my apartment so I could get my things. I had been at the precinct all night it was about seven in the morning and I was fighting off sleep when I heard the drivers door slam signaling we were at my apartment. "Stay out here okay I'll be back in a few" I told Antonio while getting out of the car

"Oh im taking orders from you know" He said his voice full of sarcasm. "This was your dumb idea the least you can do is let me get a new pair of clothes on then grab my shit without you watching my every move!" I shot back. He looked at me amused and then said he'd wait in the car.

I then ran inside my apartment changed as quick as I could then packed all my shit then I walked outside and waited by an ice machine for a bit just to tick Antonio off. It worked because fifteen minutes later he got out of his car and looked about ready to fight someone.

"What the hell Aliyah!", Antonio yelled at me while grabbing me just below my shoulder and dragging me to the car. "I just needed to take in everything before I left it behind", I responded inocently getting into the car.

Antonio's P.O.V

I've only been in charge of Aliyah for about an hour and she's already testing my patients. You see my idea was I'll take Aliyah in, and she will also come to work with me everyday until she finds a job.

I asked Voight and he said that was a great idea he said Aliyah would be like my Lindsay. That she would be a great A pain in my ass but she would also grow on me right now it's the pain in my ass part.

"Okay were here" I said pulling into my drive way. "Come on you can't be serious just take me back to the precinct please." Aliyah begged not liking the arrangements one bit.

"Not happening." I said opening the door to my house letting Aliyah go in first. "I give up where's my room I guess!" she said glaring at me her voice filled with anger but all I could do was smirk.

"Right this way" I replied while walking up the stairs taking a right until coming to a stop in front of her door which so happens to be across from my room.

"Oh god really across from you" she said bluntly while looking like someone had just killed a puppy in front of her. "Yup" I said popping the p. I couldn't help the look of satisfaction that appeared on my face.

"House rules!" I exclaimed clapping my hands together. "It just keeps getting worse" Aliyah complained. "Rule #1. You can't be out past midnight. Rule #2. No more hanging out with your old gang, and finally Rule #3. Everything has its consequences.

"So no freedom is basically what your saying" she shot at me. I just rolled my eyes a left her to unpack. "What do you feel like eating!" I yelled trying to get a response the first time. "Hand tossed peperoni pizza", she yelled back at me.

A few hours had flown by while Aliyah was unpacking, the pizza had arrived a while back she came down to get two slices then went back upstairs not even a thank you, but of course I being the mature person I am didn't say anything.

I had watched one game and once that was over I headed off to bed but not before I checked to see what Aliyah was doing, she was reading which surprised me but whatever.

Aliyah's P.O.V

It was late when Antonio came to check on me I heard him coming up the stairs so I had to think fast and grabbed a book and started to "read" it acting like I didn't see Antonio.

I had already thought of a plan while unpacking my stuff. Once Antonio fell asleep I would sneak out through the window and walk quietly across the roof to the nearest tree then climb down that simple.

It didn't take long after Antonio checked on me for him to crash so I grabbed my duffel bag and let my plan unfold. Holy shit who knew that climbing down a tree trying to be as quite as possible is freaking hard. I thought while trying not to drop my duffel bag on the way down the tree.

I finally reached the bottom without making any noise, and I didn't wake Antonio thank god for that because I would be in deep shit if he caught me. I pulled out my phone and dialed Miranda's number on the second ring she picked up.

"Hey I need a place to lay low can't stay at my apartment anymore and need a place to crash for a few nights until I figure my next move out." I told miranda not giving her a chance to speak.

"Ok I got a place but where do u want to meet", Miranda responded without questioning anything. "Are old hang out place" I quickly replied before hanging up and taking off down the street to the meet point.

A/N: I'm not sure if it's improving or just getting worse but like I said before I'm trying.
