I watched as Mateo came out with the two officers who had him in handcuffs and took him to the chair beside me

"All rise for the honorable judge Thomas" the security guy said

Me as well as everyone else had risen while the judge discussed what the case was about and then we all took a seat. I looked to my right seeing jade and her lawyer

"Don't worry I'm gonna get you out of this hopefully" I said whispering to Mateo

"Okay" he said smiling at me

"Alright. Ms. Yln you may speak for your defendant" judge Thomas said

I stood up and started speaking

"Your honor my client Mr.Bowles is accused of having sex with a minor which in this case isn't true. You see he was unaware that she was a minor because she lied about her age he wanted to break up with her but she threatened his career so he had no other choice but to date her" I said

"Alright now what about this wedding that was canceled by Mr.Bowles previously" judge Thomas said

"Yes your honor Mr.Bowles thought that if he married her then she wouldn't try to ruin his career" I said

"Alright. Mr.Bowles I'd like to hear from your side of what happened from the beginning" judge Thomas said

I watched as Mateo stood up and started speaking

"Well I had broken up with jade for the simple fact that I was moving away and I wouldn't be able to see her anymore at that time she told me that she was being home schooled but would end up going to a regular school in the next year or so. After a year has passed I thought she had changed her mind until I saw her at my school and I had tried to avoid her. After a couple of days she had threatened my relationship and said that she'd tell my girlfriend and ruin my career if I didn't agree to go out with her so that's what I did I went out with her because I wanted to protect my career more than anything because it was just starting to take off" Mateo said

"Alright. Well I've heard enough. Mateo Bowles I sentence you to 6 months probation without making any music or featuring in any videos. Jade Chesters I sentence you to 4 years in prison and 1 life term for the false accusations made upon Mr.Bowles in this case you will also have to do 2 years of community service in a juvenile detention center under the circumstances that you will not be able to use any electronics and you will not try to contact Mr.Bowles. Mr.Bowles if she fails to maintain any of these laws please make note that her sentences will increase and a restraining order will be added. Court dismissed" judge Thomas said banging the gavel

Once they took the handcuffs off of Mateo he followed me outside the court room where I let my hair out of my bun as he hugged me

"Thank you Yn" Mateo said

"No problem. Now I have to go" I said stepping away from him

"Where are you going?" Mateo asked

"Back to school, I skipped nearly two days because I had to come out here and save your ass because summer said you didn't have a lawyer your lucky I'm minoring in being a lawyer or else they would've gave you some shitty ass lawyer" I said

"I'm sorry Yn. Please don't go back to school. I love you" Mateo said grabbing my hand

"You wouldn't have left me in the first place if you loved me Mateo. Gosh what don't you understand that you chose her, you didn't choose me and I know now that the day you let me walk out that door and you didn't run after me let's me know where we" I said being cut off by Mateo kissing me

"Please stay here with me. If I have to come out there to be with you then I'll do it. Your worth fighting for Yn and I'll prove it to you because I don't ever want you to feel like I'm casting you aside. I love my career and I know I won't be able to do that for another six months but I'm just glad that you saved me" Mateo said making me smile

"Fine Mateo, but we can start off as friends and you do know you'll have to apply to the university right" I said

"I already applied and I got my acceptance letter two days ago. I just never got the chance to pack because of this court situation" Mateo said

"Alright well let's get to your house so you can pack because my next flight leaves in nearly two hours" I said

Mateo's POV

Once we got to my house I took a quick shower and then changed into some sweats and a T-shirt heading to my room so I could pack. After I was done I took my bags downstairs and called Ayleo telling him to take me and Yn to the airport. As soon as Ayleo came we ran out to his car with my bags

"So you and Yn are together" Ayleo said once we got into his car

"No Ayleo, were just friends" Yn said

"Well Alright. What's the destination?" Ayleo said

"Airport" Yn said

"Why" Ayleo said

"Just get us to the airport nigga damn asking all them damn questions" I said

"Well Alrighty then" Ayleo said pulling off towards the airport

Once we got to the airport Yn helped me with my bags and we walked inside the airport with Ayleo following behind me

"Alright your my little brother and I'm gonna miss ya" Ayleo said rubbing my Afro

"I'm gonna miss ya too. Also I can't perform or anything for 6 months" I said

"Damn. I'm gonna miss ya Yn" Ayleo said hugging her

"I'm gonna miss ya too" Yn said hugging him back
