Truth Or Dare

Chapter 19

Ethan's POV

That was rude of Harry, it wasn't my fault! He never told me he didn't tell Katie already.

I do feel bad believe me. But there is a slight resolve to the situation at hand. Katie now knows the truth!

One problem dealt with.

Why does Harry dislike me? I mean it's obvious he hates me, I haven't actually done anything to make him have ill feelings towards me. Nobodys perfect.

I had other things on my mind anyway. Like just this morning I had a phone call from the police station something about charges which didn't sound good.

My mum seemed angry so I guess Josh will be pressing charges.

All of a sudden an unwelcome feeling of panic flooded through me. I could go to jail for this and pay an almighty fine.

I'm screwed, bloody fucking screwed.

As if to torment me more the phone rang letting the shrill noise to echo off the surrounding walls. I gulped as I picked up the receiver.

"Hello?"

"Hello, is this Ethan Cartwick speaking?"

"Yes..." I answered wearily.

"This is Marcus Centford from your local Police Station. We would like you to attend a formal meeting with a few of our corresponding officers and a parental guardian of yours."

I felt strange as if my whole life was making a joke out of my existence. Maybe it was or maybe it was just how my life was going to be like.

I told him I would attend with my mother and I was to get to the police station for 6pm.

...

"Joshua Devine has contacted us in regards to the charges due to physical assault,"

"And what did he say?" My mother was on the edge of her seat (quite literally) with nervousness.

"He said that he will be dropping the previous charges," Officer Centford explained, "You will not be attending a court date or paying compensation towards to supposed victim.

I stared in disbelief at the man while my mum squealed next to me.

"Thank you very much!" She exclaimed shaking his hand and I did the same and gave my thank to the other standing officers.

"I'm free," I muttered as we walked out of the station.

Harry's POV

"Will you be staying the night again?" Clara asked while folding some clean laundry.

"If that would be okay?" I helped her fold the rest of the clothes that waiting on the kitchen table.

"Of course, you have been very kind," She paused for a moment and just looked at me with a quizzical expression.

"There is something more to what she is telling us,"

I frown,

"What do you mean?"

"She is facing bigger problems and I just don't know what they are, for once I don't think you even know," Even though Katie told me everything there was something that she was hiding from me, something big and I needed to find out what. I needed to save her from whatever was haunting her.

...

"Truth or dare?" I asked her while she giggled,

"Truth,"

"Oh safe, um how many guys have you kissed?" Why did I ask that!?

"What?! Um... Four," She rocked back and forth on the rocking chair that rested in the corner of the room.

"Truth or dare?"

"Truth," I laughed,

"How many girls have you kissed?" Was she mocking me?

"Three," That was an easy question, there were my two ex girlfriends and a random girl at a party.

"Liar," She took a sipped from her water before switching on the small lamp to give more light.

"Truth or dare?" I asked.

"Truth," Here eyes seemed to twinkle.

"Why do you always cover your arms?" Abruptly, she stood up and her eyes seemed to now twinkle with fresh tears. I said something wrong but what.

"You know what, it's late and I'm tired, it's time I went to bed!" Katie opened the door but before she left she weakly smiled at me,

"Night Harry," Then she was gone.

"SHIT!"
