Sam and I

Chapter 5

"Could I be her guardian angel?" Sam asks.

My mouth dropped, he could go to heaven! He doesn't have to protect me and be by my side anymore, he doesn't have to be apart of this fallen world. He could finally be with the Holy Trinity.

"Are you sure you do not want to go to heaven?" The angel asks.

"Juliani needs me," Sam responds firmly.

"I do not see why you can not, 'Samuel Meadow from this date till the death date of Juliani Youngblood your mission is to be her guardian angel.'" The angel said with authority.

He left as everyone was waiting, the fire department came.

"I don't have to leave!" Sam said happily.

"Why didn't you want to finally go to heaven?" I asked highly confused.

"My job isn't done, I also knew you would need someone."

"For what?"

"To help you tell the police."

"No one will believe me though."

"But think about it, if you come forward more girls will come forward."

"How many girls has he really sexually touched?"

"I don't know, but we have both watched 'Criminal Minds' and 'Law and Order'. There are more girls or will be more girls. Do you really want that on your mind?"

I nod my head no. I am completely terrified.

"After school, we are going to the police station. " Sam says wrapping his arm around me.

"Juliani Youngblood! I knew you were behind this!" The principal says next to Mr. Wheeler.

Seeing him made my stomach twist, I get on my knees unwillingly in fear. The principal grabs my wrist and drags me to the police officers.

"Here is your troublemaker." She states letting go.

"Juliani Youngblood, you have the right to remain silent, anything you say or do will be used in the court of law. If you can not afford a lawyer one will be provided for you." They turned me around and put handcuffs on me.

"Isn't this a little much for a pull of a fire alarm?" Sam asks me.

I kept silent, it's better to just be quiet. I try my best to silently cry, this is not okay. Not okay, I am not okay.

"We will get through this together Juli." He whispers as he wipes away my tear.

I suddenly felt a little less terrified.

"Mom is going to flip," I whisper to him.

"What did you say?" The police officer in the passenger asked.

"My mom is going to flip," I tell him.

"You shouldn't have pulled it then." He states.

"Mr. Wheeler was inappropriately touching me and I was scared. Pulling the alarm was the only thing that I could think of." I state.

"I need someone at Polk High school to get Tom Wheeler into custody under suspicion of sexual assault of a minor." He spoke into his radio.

"Thank you, officer," I tell him in tears.

"You are not off the hook yet."

"I know sir, I am just relieved that I was taken seriously for once in my life."

"No problem kid."

It was silent the rest of the way. When we stop they took me inside and then took my picture than my prints. They made me give them my phone and take off my chains on my skirt. I was kept in a cell with two other teenagers both obviously high.

"You look familiar one states, do you go to Polk high? " One asks.

"Yeah."

"Dude she is the crazy chick with the imaginary friend!" The other one shouts.

They both started laughing. I laid down on the bench hoping to just get out soon. Sam looked at me frustrated and I gave him the same look. He just stood against the wall and I ended up falling asleep.

When I woke up and the other two teenagers were gone. I looked around as I saw my mother talking to an officer. I swear I put her through hell and back. She then looked at my cell like she knew I was innocent.

"Juliani Youngblood." A different officer stated.

"Yes, sir?"

He handed me an orange jumpsuit to put on, I did so and I was taken to my mother and a lawyer.

"You will state what happened, but wait at least three seconds before answering questions. Understand?" The lawyer tells me.

"Yes, sir."
