"Mel wake up! Today's the day!" my mother yelled from the first floor.

"Uh, do we have to see him?" I groaned.

"Yes! now get dressed Melanie!" my mom shouted. I rolled out of bed and threw on some blue jeans and a black muscle tank, I wasn't getting dressed up for this shit.

"Now let's go see that son of a bitch!" my mom said.

"Mom you just called yourself a bitch." I giggled.

"Oh yeah I guess I did" my mom laughed along. We had to go visit my older brother Jack in juvenile prison for robbery. He had been a kleptomaniac since he was about twelve but it got worse as he grew older and he took it too far.

We arrived at the prison and we were led into the area where we could talk to Jack through the glass. I picked up the phone and started talking.

"Uh hi Jack" even though he was my brother he always felt like a stranger and I never knew what to say.

"Hi Mel" he quietly replied.

"How are you?" I asked.

"I mean I am in juvy, it's not the royal treatment" Jack sighed.

"Well, hang in there" I whispered then hung up the phone to let my mom talk. I had only visited a few times before so I had never really seen the place. My curiosity got the best of me and I walked down the halls where the other prisoners were. They didn't scare me though because I knew they were all just teenagers like me. Some girls some boys but none the less they were probably pretty normal. I was about halfway down the hall when I heard a voice.

"Who are you?" the low voice said. I slowly turned around to see who was talking.

"Me?" I questioned, walking back a few cells.

"Mhm, I've never seen you here before" said the voice. I looked in to see who I was talking to. He had sandy brown hair and bright hazel eyes. I stepped closer, suddenly intrigued.

"I'm Melanie" I answered, not breaking my gaze from his eyes.

His mouth curved into a small smile.

"I'm Ashton"
