Secrets (LiAngelo Ball)

First Flight Home

*Salem's POV*

I sat down in the room as we were all talking with the Chinese government about what is going to happen. LiAngelo, Cody, and Jalen were all there as well. I have been in the detention center for about 2 days and it has been terrible. It was so scary, everyone in there was sooo scary and mean. I really didn't belong there. "Oh thank you," my dad sighed in relief as they agreed to let us go.
"Thank you, I'm so sorry," I told them, sighing. Our translator told them what we were saying and they nodded as us. I stood up and followed one of the police officers back to where I would change and regain my things. I changed out of the jump suit and handed it to the lady. I got dressed and I got my phone out. I saw I had a ton of messages from Cole. Apparently we are making the news. I walked back out to my dad and hugged him tight. "Oh my god thank you so much," I let tears fall, sighing, "I'm so so so so sorry."
"It's okay," He held me close. I pulled away and sighed a little bit. I got on my phone to tell Cole the whole story.

Me-
Everyone was taking things, we just followed what they were doing which was stupid af. I had to go to a detention center because I'm 17 and it was terrible!! I'm out now, first flight home.

I put my phone away and went over to LiAngelo. "I'm sorry I got you wrapped up in this," he sighed.
"No you didn't," I shook my head, giving him a hug, "How'd jail treat you?"
"Alright," He laughed, "We didn't understand anyone and we are 100x bigger than all the men there so it wasn't that bad." He hugged back and rubbed on the small of my back, "You?"
"Terrible," I laughed, "The girls in there are so scary I thought I was going to get murdered."
"Oh god," he laughed and pulled away, "Let's go and just chill in our hotel, not leave."
"Yes," I laughed, "Stay till our flight home."
"Agreed," He laughed.

Cole-
Wow that's crazy. I cant believe you would do something like that...

Me-
I don't know what got into me.

Cole-
I don't know either...

Me-
Don't be mad at meeeee

Cole-
Nah just a little surprised to be honest.

Me-
I know. Everyone is.

Cole-
So are all of you out?

Me-
Yes. We have to stay in this hotel though till our flight back home.

Cole-
Damn.

Me-
Yeah but I'm going to sleep now. I'll see you soon!

I put my phone away and covered up with the blankets I had. I looked over at the bed where LiAngelo laid. "Are you awake?" I whispered.
"Yeah," he whispered back. I got out of the bed and walked over to where he was. I laid down in the bed next to him and curled up into his chest. He wrapped his arms around me and held me closer to him. "Damn I missed you," I whispered, sighing.
"I know, I missed you too," he held me closer. I cuddled into his chest, falling asleep not long after.

Once we got back to US everyone was asking us questions as we got off the plane. They were asking us why we did it, calling us thieves. Saying we should've stayed in jail. It was really overwhelming to be honest. We got escorted to our cars by the security at the airport. We got in and my dad drove us home. "Tomorrow we are going to talk to someone about the incident okay? You're going to explain what really happened," my dad glanced at me.
"Okay," I nodded. Courtney hasn't talked to me since this all happened. She has barely even looked at me. "And you have to go in front of everyone and apologize to everyone okay?" he told me.
"I got it," I nodded. He nodded as well and drove us back to the house.

I got my stuff out of the trunk and followed them inside. "Cou-"I was cut off by her walking into her room, shutting the door behind her. I sighed a little bit and went to my room as well. I sat my suitcase down and got my phone out.

Me-
Courtney wont even talk to me.

LiAngelo-
I'm sorry.. she will eventually. She's your sister. Also she has to interview you for the show

Me-
True.

I put my phone away and sighed a bit. I started to unpack my things and I heard my phone go off, I figured it was LiAngelo or Cole but it wasn't. It was Izzy.

Izzy-
So I just watched an episode of Ball In The Family...

Me-
Okay?

Izzy-
What the hell is going on between you and my boyfriend?

Me-
Nothing? Lmfao

Izzy-
Doesn't seem like "nothing" to me.

Me-
Chill Izzy. We just friends

Izzy-
Whatever, I catch anything else and I wont hesitate to beat your ass.

Me-
I thought that you two were going to be just friends??

Izzy-
Well I changed my mind, so back off he was never yours for the taking anyways.

Me-
K
