Not What I Expected (Dinah/You)

Chapter 63

Dinah's POV

"Where is she?" I say as I bounce my knee up and down as I look around the court room. I feel a hand being placed on my knee. "She's going to show Dinah. I know she would want to see these assholes be put in jail just as much as the both of us." Melanie says as she gives me a slight smile. "They're about to start." Yonni says as she's in her pants suit and rests her brief cast on the table. Yonni is Y/N's lawyer and she has been the lawyer for Cheylise's case. "Where's Y/N?" "She went to Texas last night. She was supposed to be back by this morning." "Have you called her? She is one of the main people in this case. If she doesn't come he mi-" "I'm here. I'm here." Y/N says as she rushes in with her mother and sister.

She walks in and takes a seat next to Yonni. "Hey babe. Hey Mel and Yonni. Hey princess." "Mama your back." "Of course baby girl." Cheylise hops down from Melanie's lap and walks to her other mother. Y/N pulls her onto her lap and kisses her cheek. "Don't 'hey Yonni' me! Where the hell were you?" Yonni whisper yells. "The plane got delayed last night I had to find another flight and this one was having trouble starting. Plus traffic. I'm still wearing the same outfit from yesterday. If you haven't noticed." Y/N says as she motions towards her outfit. "All rise...."

"The hell you mean he's only getting 10 years and no probation!?" Y/N says as she stands up enraged. "Do you not understand what he did? He abducted my child, went around the fucking country with her, raped her, and left her unconscious at the doorstep of a hotel room!" Yonni starts to pull on her wrist as the judge bangs his gavel. "Order! Order! Ms. Y/LN you yell like that again in this court room you will have to be escorted out." She sits down and slouches in her seat. "Your honor, my client does have a reason to be upset about the punishment that you gave him." Yonni says as she gets up and walks in front of the table.

"With the accounts of crimes that Mr. Y/LN did during this one time period he should get more than just 10 years. Rape alone is about 2-5 years, abduction is up to 20 years. And for 1st degree attempt of murder is 5-15 years. Then on plus for the other counts of 4 kidnappings that this case is fighting. And not only this a criminal case this is a federal case so he shouldn't just get 10 years." I look over and see her fathers lawyer talking to the officer. Yonni looks back at us and I point over to what I was looking at. "Mr. Roberts would like to make your point out loud instead of into the officers ear?" "No." "Mr. Roberts I'm curious what are you saying to the officer. Please come to the stand."

He huffs and places his hand on the Bible and then takes the stand. "I was asking the officer if he could talk you into getting him less time. I was going to pay him to change the report." "Ahh the report" Yonni starts as she points to him. "The report that you claim to have is very different than the original ones. The police report that Ms. Miraj had given was altered. The one you have states that she was left at the door in which you claim Cheylise had knocked on, but her hand prints aren't on the door. As the mother of a toddler and knowing Ms. Cheylise I know that when she knocks on the door with her hand open."

Yonni then turns to us and winks. I smile and look to my left and see Y/N smiling too. "In the original police report Ms. Miraj clearly states that she did not know that Cheylise was left in front of the door in which she was leaving her room but almost tripped over the toddlers body. She didn't report any knocks on her door. Also there is a video that shows Mr. Y/LN leaving the toddlers body on the floor in front of the door then quickly leaving the scene." Yonni then points to the small tv, in which it shows everything she just stated.

"Alright, alright, alright I get it. Michael Y/LN you are sentence to be in federal prison for life. Gabriel Y/LN you are sentenced to be in federal prison for 15 years with parole and 10 year of probation. Court dismissed." The judge says as he stands up. Y/N gets up and runs to him and engulfs him into a hug. "Thank you, thank you, thank you." "You are most welcome. Take care of her, she's going to need you." He says and Y/N nods her head and lets go. She runs to Yonni and engulfs her into a hug as well. "I know you love me. There's nothing I wouldn't do for you and munchkin." Yonni laughs and so does the rest of us. "Come on lets go out, on me." Y/N says.

"Mama we done?" "Yes baby girl we're all done." "No more scary men?" "No baby girl. You don't have to see them anymore." "Mama can we go get ice cream?" "Whatever you want baby girl."

"I hope you know when I get out I'm going to finish what my father finished." A voice with vengeance says. We turn around and see her brother looking straight at us. Y/N laughs. "Aight bro I'll see you in 15 years."

Y/N POV

"Girl I know, this is kinda scary. Falling way back deep in love.... so involuntary. All you needed was my trust... shit." I say as I fiercely scribble out that line. "Girl I know, this is kinda scary. Falling way back deep in love so involuntary. All you need was my trust, now you got it baby. Now that I got it, I'm gone prov- nah. Now I got it, I ain't gonna lose it. Yeah." "Writing a song?" I turn around and see her standing at the door. "Yeah. It's hard when you don't feel that emotion anymore." "Well what if I said that I can help?" "I'd say that you'd be really helpful. Why what's going on?" "Ever since we've been public about our relationship I've been getting backlash because of it. I knew being with him was going to cause something but I didn't think that it would be this bad."

"Well you two are from two totally different worlds. You grew up knowing how it feels to be loved from the ones around you where as he had to fight off everyone around him. Everyone sees you as this perfect little human and everyone sees him as just another artist trying to change something in the world." "I know but it's not like our worlds couldn't meet because it did."

I look down then back at her. "I know. But everyone else doesn't think that. But I know that you don't care about what others think about you either. It's just your worlds weren't made to be met. And now that it has, nobody knows how to react to it." She nods her head. "I understand, but does this mean we aren't meant to be?" I shrug and shake my head. "I don't know Ally. That's for you guys to determine." "Aye babyeh we gotta- Y/N..uh what's up?" "Nothing just writing. She's all yours." "Thanks Y/N/N." I nod my head and go back to looking at my notepad. I hear the sounds of wheels and I hear the door open and I look up to see my girlfriend and daughter pushing the baby stroller. "Baby you've been here all day." "I know but this is the only place where I can actually right a song in peace. I'm almost done babe." She nods her head and sits down on the couch across from me and Cheylise sits beside her. "Was that August and Ally?" "Yeah Ally came here asking for advice. I don't know why she was here in the first place. Maybe it was because of August, who knows."

"Did you talk to him?" Dinah asks. "Not really. He asked what was up and I gave him an answer after that Ally said bye and they left." I hear Dinah sigh and I look up from my notepad. "What?" "Why don't you just talk to him? I know you miss him?" "Dinah can we not? I don't want to talk about this. Plus it's not my fault our friendship ended, should've never said what he said." I said while flipping my notepad cover over and putting the pen in between the loops. I gather my stuff and get up. Dinah and Cheylise does the same. "But babe at some point y'all have to talk." Dinah says as we make our way out of the studio and make our way towards the doors. I wave at the receptionist and tell her that she could leave.

"We did. Before he left when he said what's up. Look Dinah there's nothing for us to talk about. Nothing is going to change how I feel about the situation and about what he said. It's a done deal and that's how it's going to end." I say as I get the keys from Dinah and unlock the door to the car. I open the door and grab Kaleo's car seat and connecting him to his base and I then help Cheylise buckle herself in and then grab the carriage folding it up and putting it in the trunk. I go to the drivers seat and sit in the car. Dinah comes in afterwards and I start the car and reverse out of the parking spot. "But can't-" "No." "Why-" "Cause I said so." "But-" "Just no Dinah. No more talking about it either. Don't try and force something that doesn't need to be forced." She huffs and sits back.
