Chapter 80

Brandie's pov

I stayed outside and 2 detectives started making their way up the steps. They paid me no mind as they went inside, as Mrs. Cramer let them in. I followed slowly behind them.

Once they were in the living room thet shut Ryan and Becka up.

The woman held up her badge saying, "Brandie Wentz we need to speak with you."

Before Becka could say anything I stepped forward piping up, "I'm Brandie." They spun around and the dective sighed,

"We have your mother in custody for the shooting last week sometime. We would like to know the charges you wish to press against her, so we can schedule a court date."

Everyone was looking at me and my heart felt heavy.y

After a minute I took a deep breath replying, "I don't want to press any charges."

She looked at me asking, "Are you sure Miss Wentz?"

I nodded and Becka yelled, "Are you fucking crazy?! She tried to kill you!" She paused before turning to the dective saying, 

"She'll press charges." 

My eyes widened and I exclaimed, "No I'm  not! She's our mother! I don't give a shit about what she did to me because everyone makes mistakes okay! So what she made a big mistake! She's trying to get clean! For me and for dad! And I love her so much! I'm not gonna let her possibly rot in a fucking jail cell!" Then I walked out. I didn't want to be in the same room as Becka right now. Which is kinda funny, considering that earlier I would've done anything to be in the same room as her, and to have her alive. Now I just wanted to be away from her. 

With much difficulty I took out my phone and called Rian. 

He picked up on the second ring exclaiming, "Alex is trying to kill me!" 

I laughed before replying, "Okay. I'm coming over idiots." 

He said something else and I hung up to let Alex kill him. Wait. Maybe I shouldn't have done that. Cause then all the police shit. Oh well. 

-------------------------------------------------

I was at Rian's and he was still alive. Zack was trying to stop Alex and Rian, while me and Jack just randomly talked. It was fun. Especially when Jack was trying to prove he could do a hand stand, but wound up falling on Alex. Someone knocked and Zack went to get it since Rian was trying to help Jack up without getting killed by Alex. Ryan appeared and I looked at him. He gave me a small smile and then Becka appeared. 

My smile fell and she walked over and picked me up. My eyes widened and I screamed, 

"HELP I'M BEING KIDNAPPED!" Ryan looked at me with wide eyes and Becka yelled, 

"Not kidnapping if we share DNA!" 

I hit the back of her leg yelling, "IT IS! BECUASE YOU'RE TAKING ME SOMEPLACE I DO NOT WANT TO GO BY FORCE! KIDNAPPER!" Ryan took me out of Becka's arms and held me bridal style. I hated being held like this and he knows it. He kissed my forehead before putting me down. Becka sat next to me and I stared at the couch cushions. There were a few repaired tears, and some loose frayed strings that I started playing with. Anything was better then looking Becka in the eye and facing what was happening right now. It's better to hide, then to put myself out on the line and get hurt again.
