I looked at her... said nothing and just stared at her and looked at at at her drink and played with the straw. She was back, back to the girl I met on the first day I was awakened, she was strong, yet empty. Her midnight blue eyes were like polished glass as the light shined because if the dimly light room.

"I understand if you want to leave us and just go back to someone that you have dear to you." She said clearly, without an emotion in sight.

I shook my head slightly and gave her a small smile, "I don't have anyone to go home too unless you count your little family back at the mansion." Taking her hand and giving it a gentle squeeze.

She looked up and gave me a weird look before I could say anything else she hugged me tightly. Nearly suffocating my from the strength she has packed in her small body.

"Thank you."

That was all she said. Letting me go and giving me a moonlight smile.

I grinned back, "so are you going to finish that?"

~'~

I hid behind the shadows and frowned, I didn't think that I would see this. Lyn and another man and from the looks of it, they seem to know each other for quite a while. I sighed slightly and turned away, making a turn around the corner and looked at the ground with a thoughtful look.

Why would Lyn come and sneak out the mansion to see someone? It's not like her.

Maybe it's a lover?! But Lyn would tell us if she was interested in someone.

I sighed slightly and kept walking. Everyone has all these secrets and they don't seem to be bothered by the thought of someone finding out about it.  I huffed slightly and smirked.

"Well, I wonder how long they will be able to keep these secrets under wraps for very long." And with that, I made my way over to the mansion, a sweet smile playing on my lips.

I entered the mansion with a bang, it must've wakened up Rinko cause he came at me like a crazy person holding a high heel. I would be laughing if i wasn't defending myself from his craziness.

"Why are you holding a heel?" I asked, holding him down, looking at him confused.

He grunted slightly and looked at me with narrowed eyes, "I didn't expect to be woken up by a loud bang."

I rolled my eyes and released him, helping him up, "Well I didn't expect to be greeted my heel in the air." crossing my arms and looking away.

Rinko pooled rough like he couldn't sleep over the past few nights, "hey, rinko are you alright you have bags under your eyes."

Rinko looked at me like he was looking for a secret, "oh! Well, I've been following a paper trail on the higher-ups and their business form the time they get coffee to the end of the deals they keep making and I'm coming up with nothing that looks suspicious." running his hand across his face.

I hummed slightly and just walked to my room.

~'~

I huffed slightly as they looked at me with suspicious looks, "ok look, I wasn't expecting that guy to come up to me and offer a drink alright. I thought he was going to rod me!" crossing my arms and looking away.

The police shook their heads and write and asked questions about what happened. On the upside, they got out of the bar just in time too. If Ash didn't drag him out them I would be dead meat by her hands.

"So let me get this straight, you were just having a drink then some guy comes up to and starts to flirt, instead of telling him to leave you decided to beat him to a pulp and start a bar fight... Is that right or am I missing something?" asked the detective, rubbing his face from lack of sleep.

I nodded and looked at the one-way mirror with a slight smirk on my face, "yeah that's right. It was my mistake I thought there was going to be a gang upon me afterward."

The detective just sighed and told me that I was staying overnight. I didn't complain, thinking that they might actually through me in jail for fighting one of them.

As I was sitting in the holding cell with just a thin stiff blanket, I started to think for a bit, starting to think that why Ash wanted me to look out for her, she does know how to take care of herself pretty well. I didn't get the room for myself for very long it was nearly two in the morning when they opened the door for some inmate to come in and keep me company.

She stayed in the farthest corner f the room with some clothes and leaned against it with a pissed of the look on her face, It wasn't till sometime around six when she was taken out of her and transferred to some other cell.

It wasn't until it was around eight in the morning that they let in three other inmates with me, from the looks of it they look friendly by the way they smiled.

"Hey girly! How are you doing?" the blonde one said, her warm brown eye and gentle smile, giving me the feeling of reassurance being in this place.

I gave her a small smile back, "I'm doing fine so far," covering myself with the blanket that i was laying on.

The black short woman with braids sat next to me and gave me hug, "Don't worry sweetie, everything will be fine."

I was startled by her hung, but I returned it anyway, "Thanks, but I think I can manage a little while longer."

The other chuckled and shook her head, "you don't need to be brave, we've all been there. Listen if your stuck here and taken with us, then you can bunk with one of us!" her blue eyes, shined with delight.

"My name is Rufus, the woman next to you is nicknamed Big momma, and this blue-eyed girl is lily, and we'll watch out for you in case you really are stuck here with us," Rufus said with a big smile on her face.

I smiled brightly as we talked about all sorts of things with each other, like the fact that we love to watch Castle and many other crime and reality t.v. shows. I never knew prison would be this much fun considering that we are just in a holding cell.

Unfortunately, It was time for me to go, Edward knew some very powerful people in the law department, so I was out of there just in time when the girls were going to see the judge about their sentence. I got to admit, I'm going to miss those girls even if we just met, it felt like I was leaving a small part of my family behind. I promised to visit them when I had the time.

"I see that you've made some friends, while you were in there, "Edward said, picking up his white suitcase and walking along with me, keeping his face hidden from the light and the looks we were getting from officers on the way out.

I gave him a slight nod and just continued to walk to the black car, "It was fun being in there, it felt like I was home for a moment."

I hope you like it! and the part when she was in the holding cell that part was a little truth with my experience! I hope this doesn't mean that you'll think something bad of me, I was just a stupid kid who made a wrong choice, anyways, I hope you liked it and that I'm sorry that I took this long to update. If you want more then stay tuned for the next chapter!

Ash out~
