Emma's pov

Today I was in court and it started at half 9 I only had an hour to get ready as it was. 8: 30. I really didn't want to wake up but I fouced myself out of bed and went and grabbed some pale blue denim short shorts, I put a pair of thin black tights on and my blue vans, I put in a top which said 'it's my life' and my denim wasit coat. I then brushed my hair and put it into a fish plait. And then put a pale blue bow clip into my hair and then went down stairs and saw mum down there already, she was wearing black loose pants, except around the ankles it was tight, with a white shirt and a black blazer with her black LouBouitons. Her hair was normal, brown with a few blonde highlights in and loose waves.

"Morning mum" I say walking over to her and stand by her

"Morning Emma" mum says to my and pulls me into a hug. 'As much as I love your outfit, you can't wear that to court'

'Why?'

'Its got to look smart, you know when you're going to school and you see all those people in black, you gotta look like them'

'Oh' I said 'well what am I supposed to wear?'

'Lets go have a look' she said and took me back to my room. 'What about this?' She said pulling out my black disco pants, a black and white leopard print t-shirt with frilly arms and a black blazer.

'Okay' I said and she left me to get changed. When I was changed I kept my fish plait but put a different bow in, it was black with black net around it.

@EmmaScherzy: court today #shesgoingdown

I quickly tweeted and then went downstairs after changing my vans to black ones instead of blue. Me and mum got into the car and then she drove to the court.

'Mum, what if they ask what happened? I don't know what happened?' I asked

'Well then say that, say you don't know. You'll be fine, come on' she said after parking the car, we got out and there were hundreds of paps around. We dodged past them and then went inside. We went do the front desk and waited for the receptionist to come of the phone.

"We've got a court case in half an hour, could you possibly tell us where we have to go" mum asks the receptionist.

"Name" the receptionist asks us

"Emma" mum says and then the receptionist looks at the computer screen and then back to us "right up the stairs to the third floor, third door on the left" she tells us and we both nod

'thank you" mum says and then we walk towards the stairs and we walk up them and then down the corridor. I was becoming more scared with every step we made. I had butterflies in my stomach.

'Mum?' I whispered worryingly

'Yeah?'

'Will she be there?'

'Who?'

'Veronica' I gulped

'I don't know baby, but if she is, you won't see her, you'll be fine sweetie, promise' she said and rubbed my back. We sat on the chairs and I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket.
