Accidental Love (Short Story)

Life Or Death

Shawn POV: ***4 months later***

For the past four months I have been sleeping in the same dirt, uncomfortable holding cell since I first arrived here. The judge,  prosecution team and investigative team have post-poned my sentencing due to what they call "unfortunate circumstances". No one has even been in here to see me except my lawyer, who isn't doing much of a good job getting me out of here. The judge didn't even give me bail so I'm pretty much screwed until my sentencing, whenever that is. 

"Are you Shawn Carter"

I sat up facing the bars of the cell and starred at the lady that stood on the opposite side of them. She had dark brown hair with piercing black eyes, although I couldn't tell because it was dark and her skin looked as pale as porcelain. She looked familiar but I couldn't remember If I had seen her before. I shifted my position on the bed to get a better look at her, she didn't have a name tag on which, was weird because the people here always have on name tags. 

"Why do you want to know"

"I've been told to provide this to you"

She pulled out an envelope from her jacket and slid it through the bars and began looking around. I stood up walking towards her, I studied her for a second then grabbed the envelope from the bars and proceeded to walk back to my bed.

"What is in here"

"Everything you need to know on why you're still in here"

"Who are you"

"Just think of me as the person that helped you when nobody else gave a damn"

With that she simply walked away leaving me confused so I decided to open the envelope. Inside of it were documents of denied transfer files, denied bail request from my lawyer, and multiple sentencing options that were denied, all except for one. 

"10 years without the chance of parole"

Beyonce POV

I woke up due to an aching pain in my back that I have been getting a lot more now that I am just 2 months away from my due date. This pregnancy has been absolute hell and I wouldn't wish it upon my worse enemy. I have constant pain in my lower back which prevents me from sleeping a lot of times, I am still throwing up after I eat and I have to pee constantly every 5 minutes. Plus the stress I am going through just to Shawn out of jail is really taking a toll on my body.  

Yes, despite everything I did to ruin his life I am trying to get him out. Why? Well, I recently found out I have a mental illness which, the Doctor called Intermittent Explosive Disorder. It's an impulse-control disorder characterized by extreme fits of anger. This actually explains a lot because when I was younger my Mother used to take me to different mental institutions and they obviously failed at their job. Anyway, I have been going to anger management classes as the Doctor requested and they have been helping me tremendously. 

I decided that I wanted to see Shawn today which, will be the first time in four months so I'm a little nervous but I am praying that he'll be up to at least talk. I put my silver Audi A4 in park and turned the engine off. My nerves subconsciously took over my entire body and a wave of nausea flooded my body. I sat back, closed my eyes, and took deep breathes as I tried to calm myself down. Once I felt that I was okay, I got out of my car and walked towards the entrance of the jail. 

This book is coming to an end shortly. I feel the need to end it since it was just supposed to be a short story anyway. The next chapters will be centered around Shawn a little more than Beyonce due to his situation which that takes more time to develop than Beyonce having a baby. I hope all of you enjoyed this and like I said earlier I have a fleet of new books coming out soon so keep an eye out. COMMENT PLS AND VOTE.
