The New Girl

Chapter 60 - Interrogation

Aurora Jones.

"You can't just do that to him! He gets one phone call! I would know, my father is a detective for god's sake!" I shouted, slamming my hand on the front desk.

The lady at the desk and I have been arguing for almost thirty minutes. The vein practically popping out of her head and irritable scoffs only angered me more and thus lead to me screaming in her face.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but I cannot allow you to see him. He's being interrogated-"

"Interrogated for what?! He has done nothing wrong! He's been in school all day and I was with him-"

"I can't just hand out confidential information, young lady! I'm going to ask you to sit down or you'll be escorted out of the police station." She snapped.

I could feel my body want to shake in anger. I can't believe she won't tell me anything! I wanted to continue arguing with her until she allowed to at least see Harry, but I knew I shouldn't push any further. With a glared, I gave in. Harry couldn't afford his only witness to get kicked out of the police station.

As I made my way back to where everyone was seated, I could feel the stares of other police officers passing by. I'm positive one of them even rolled his eyes at me when I locked eyes with him. Man, why are they acting like I'm the bad guy here? How else am I suppose to react when a cop shows up to my school and arrests someone I care deeply about? It's not something I can just stay calm about.

Sabrina stood up and shook her head, "How could they do this? They won't even tell you what he's being charged with?" Sabrina asked, as I made my way back towards them.

 Whenever Sabrina is worried about something, she does this thing where she runs her hands through her hair. The uneven sides made it clear that she couldn't stand not knowing what was going on as much as everyone else.

I shook my head, "They won't tell me anything. I called my father and he said he's out of town at the moment and will do his best to come home as soon as possible."

"Have you tried ringing Harry's father?" Niall asked.

I nodded, "He's on a business trip as well, but Gemma is on the first flight here. Until she gets here, Harry will most likely have to spend the night in jail."

The thought of Harry having to sleep inside a jail sell with other criminals made my stomach churn. I just hope someone gets here on time to help him, I still have to thank him for what he did today at school.

Harry Styles.

"We have all the proof we need, why do we still need to interrogate him?!" Detective Morgan snapped at his partner.

Officer Macey rolled her eyes, "Because its protocol, Morgan. We need a confession and you know I'm right. If you don't want to follow the rules, I'll gladly interrogate him myself."

Officer Macey was not to be messed with. I haven't gotten in trouble lately, but I met her after my mother's accident. She helped me with my insurance and even let me talk to her, which I did little of but the help was appreciated. This was her department and she intended on keeping it that way. If that means getting on a big-shot Detective's bad side, then so be it. It's not like she cares if Morgan throws a tantrum, she's here to do her job the right way and no one could ever get between that.

"This isn't needed! I'm going to speak with your chief!" He snapped, before storming out of the room.

Officer Macey reached over to the camera and turned it off, "Look, Harry, I'm not trying to play favoritism or anything like that, but you aren't exactly known to buy drugs, at least we don't have a record of it. What's really going on?"
