Addison's POV

It has now been a couple of months, a couple of months since I last saw Stefan, I keep looking at the picture I took of our first date on the hill, how I wish I could go back there with him.

Today is the day, the day of the trial, the decision on whether Stefan is found guilty and sentenced, or found not guilty and released so we can be together. Dad has been working hard on getting Stefan found guilty, apparently with him pleading not guilty, if he gets found guilty then he'll face 15 years in prison, and never allowed to ever be near me again, that's my worst nightmare.

But I guess whatever happens today, I'll be able to see Stefan again, even if it does turn out to be the last time I see him.

I'm so scared that he'll be sent down, but I haven't been able to change Dads mind, he literally hates Stefan and won't listen to anything I say. He's still convinced that we slept together, or rather in his mind, that Stefan raped me.

"Addison sweetheart, are you nearly ready?" Dad calls from outside my bedroom door.

"Yeah I'm pretty much ready" I answer. I'm wearing smart clothes for the trial, not like a black and white outfit, but along the lines of what I'd wear for school, just smart clothes.

"Good, we need to get going in a minute" He says entering my room as I take a quick look in the mirror. I see Dads reflection as he's sorting his tie out, he is wearing a black and white suit, you know how it goes for the men. I look over and the framed photo of Mum.

"I miss Mum, I could really do with a hug from her right now" I say quietly.

"I miss her too, come on, we really need to go otherwise we'll be late" He says ushering me. I quickly put my shoes on and follow him downstairs, where he grabs his keys and phone, which reminds me to check that my phone is on me, which it is.

"I hope today goes well" I say.

"Well, with all the work I have put into this case, it can only go well" He says. I don't respond as I might just yell at him. That is not at all what I meant, but he won't hear it.

He ushers me out of the house and he follows behind, we get in the car and he drives us to the court.

Please god, let Stefan and I be together, don't let him be found guilty, we only want to be happy together.

"You don't need to be scared of him, he won't get to you" Dad says breaking the silence. I look from the window to him in disbelief.

"I'm not scared of him Dad, I love him" I say.

"Maybe once this is over, you'll feel better about all this" He says. He just won't listen.

"Mhmm" I respond, pretty much ignoring him.

Once we get there, we are surrounded by news reporters hounding me with questions about the relationship and taking pictures.

"What was it like being kidnapped by your teacher?" One asks.

"What outcome would you like today?" Another asks.

"How do you feel about what has happened?" Another one asks.
