Love is Precious!

Chapter 15

Mum spent alot of time with Kelly in the jail, i could only go as have as much as mum did cos mum is her lawyer. The day ater i made my public rant it was all over the papers, to be honest it was more funny than anything else.

Today was the court day and i am fucking shitting myself. She could go to prison if this doesnt go well and i dont think i could cope with that and im not sure how Kelly would hold up in prison.

After my shower i got dressed in some black skinny jeans and a white tank top and i put an oversized red and blue checked shirt on and my black beanie and purple converse. I made my way downstairs and sat in the lioving room,

"you not having breakfast?" mum asked and i shook my head "it'll just come back up!" i said and she smiled and sat next to me "whatever happens today dont worry about it, if Kelly is set free then thats good but dotn expect it to be easy okay, and if Kelly isnt set free then your both going to have to have a long chat about what you both want!" she said and i nodded,

"i know, its just nerves though!" i said and she smiled an dkissed my head "try an eat something though!" she said and i nodded. In the end i managed a slice of toast wihout feeling sick.

We all set of for court, there was no school today and that meant dad was free to. We parked in the car park and pushed through the press and entered the court and aain it was very quiet. There was no lawyer to greet us as mum was with us so we made our way to the court room and mum's character had changed into very buisness like and it was clear she kept her personal life and her work life seperate.

We went in the court room and i was very nervous. It was like the other one i wa sin but the judges chair was black and somehow this one seemed to be more light and we were sitting on the other side this time.

I sat besdie mum as dad and Hailey sat in the public area. I looked at the door i remembered Mr branson comming out of waiting for kelly to come out, ironic much.

The door suddenly opened and a police man came out who looked to be in his forties then behind him i saw kelly and she looekd tired. Our eyes locked and i smiled at her and she smiled back at me and her face lit up and she looked a bit more happier,

She was put in the 'dock' and she loooked nervous. I sent her a reasuring smile and she winked at me causing me to blush slightly. "all rise!"i suddenyl heard and i stood with everyone else and the judge came in and i was slightly disappointed it wasnt that lady from before,

This lady was much younger, possibly late thirties and not a grey hair on her, i think. She had a purple and black robe on and looked very stern "shit!" my mum mumbled and i looked at her "what?" i asked as we sat down,

"this is Margret Slown, she has a tendancy to favour the law!" she said and i gulped, shit!

"prosecution present your case!" she said stern and coldly. My mum stood up and tlaked alot of lawyer junk. I looekd my mum over as she spoke and she didnt seem my mum, the same persont hat swore like a trooper. This person was very direct and to the point and i want to say no life in her but it isnt the life im talking about, she belived in what she was doing and it was clear she did when she talked,

She sat down and the education boards judge stood and i dont even know what the hell he talked about at one point i thought we were having to cases at the same time with the way he's going.

as Kelly is in the wrong the education board went first and i was called up, i sighed and made my way over to the bench. I sat down and he smiled at me and i put on a fake smile for him. I looked him over and he looked to be in his mid fifties and he looked worn out if im honest.

"tell me how you kow Miss Hoppen?" he asked and his voice sounded worn out aswell "well she's my mums bestfriend!" i said and he nodded "and you didnt think it strange daiting someone as the same age as your mother?" he asked and i nodded,
