young and stupid [sequel to bad boy next door]

Chapter Nine

Song: What Now by Beyonce

~Sierra Sparks~

After that everything was a blur. I was taken into custody for basically admitting to the crime I didn’t even do. I did it for love. I’m so stupid. I admitted to doing something to protect the boy who didn’t even love me.

I sit in my cell, fiddling with my fingers. My parents are going to kill me. Hard.

My cell door opens and a man I’ve never seen before comes in. He sits down in front of me in a chair as he stares at me.

“We know you didn’t do it,” he says as he looks at me. I stay quiet, as I stare back at the man. I don’t show any emotion. I’m not going to give in. I don’t plan on it. I’d do it for Austin because I know what he’s been through. Even though he turned his back on me I wouldn’t on him.

“I did do it,” I say as I stare back at the guy. I don’t falter. I wouldn’t risk The Crew ending up here.

“We found Alex Constancio’s finger prints at the scene. Not yours,” the man says. No… Not Alex.

“Because Danny took me… And they came after me. But I’m the one who killed Danny. They just took the fall for me,” I speak as I look at him. The man goes silent as I say it. He just shakes his head at me.

“You’re parents are here to pick you up,” he says as he looks at me. I look back at the man, shaking my head. He knows I’m lying to protect them because everyone knows their trouble.

“They didn’t do it,” I say as I look at the guy. “I promise you,” I continue, but I was lying straight through my teeth. The man nods his head as I say it. I could tell he believed me too. I guess the crew made me a better liar.

I soon get up and the man leads me out. I follow behind him, not daring to speak. My eyes scan the white walls of the prison I was going to be stuck in. I can feel the depression reek through this place. I couldn’t stand it here.

I soon see Austin and the Crew sitting in chairs, some officers near them.

“They didn’t do it, let them go,” the man says as I look at Austin. Austin’s eyes are already on me. I can’t show emotion as I stare at him. He doesn’t deserve that. As much as I wanna run over and hug him I can’t. He doesn’t love me anymore. Before I even know it he decides to speak up.

“Sierra… we should talk…” Austin starts as the man walks away. I just shake my head at Austin as the boys push him forward to me. I didn't want this. I didn’t want an apology or for him to tell me to move on. I didn’t need sympathy.

“No, Sierra, I need to explain…” Austin says, but I just shake my head once again.

“I think we should just leave each other alone now…” I whisper to Austin, before making my way over to my parents. Boy was I in a heap of trouble.
