Chapter 23
Kristen’s P.O.V
We skated for hours. By the time we were leaving, Zayn could skate backwards and I could skate on my own. It was overall a fun day filled with falls, fails, laughs, smiles and kisses. Nothing could go wrong.
And of course, the something did go wrong.
We were just arriving at the house when we both noticed police cars surrounding the dead looking mansion. Zayn and I simultaneously stepped out the car.
“What’d happen?” I asked a police officer, only to be shoved againist a cop car.
“HEY!” Zayn exclaimed.
“You are under arrest,” A cop spat in my face. “for kidnapping One Direction.” The officer snapped the tight handcuffs on my wrists. “You have the right to remain silent.” The whole time I kept my eyes locked on Zayn. A police officer was talking to him calmly and Zayn was angrily gestured to me before being pushed into another car.
I ignored the police officer that was shouting things at me, and doing some sort of search, which was just patting in places that shouldn't be patted, and shouted “ZAYN!” once his hazel eyes meet mine, I said, “I LOVE YOU!”
“I LOVE YOU TOO!” Zayn shouted.
“NO YOU DON'T! YOU’VE BEEN BRAINWASHED!” One officer shouted at Zayn while another said “SHUT THE FUCK UP!” to me. The officer that was doing the search thing on me pushed me into the police car and drove me to jail.
My life is officially ruined.
I lost Zayn once again.
I’m going to jail...
Yup. I’m definitely going to be sent back home to Canada. I didnt bother trying to blink away my tears. I just let it all out... Including an unattractive sob. To my surprise, the officer said nothing. He seemed to be focused on the road... Really focused.
Once we arrived in the county jail, I was thrown in a cell which had 3 familiar faces in it.
Daniella, Lexi, and Cassie.
The three looked lost. Daniella sat in a corner curled up in a ball. Lexi sat on the floor with a blank look on her face. Cassie looked lost in thought.
“How’d this happen?” I asked quietly. Daniella popped her head up.
“It’s all my fault,” She said.
“Danny-” I started.
“No! It’s all my fault! If I had went to boarding school like my foster parents tried to make me do, I wouldn’t of became such a daredevil meaning the police wouldn’t know me,” She whimpered. Foster parents? Boarding school? What is she talking about?
“What are you talking about?” I asked
“I’m the reason why Harry got hit by a car. I’m the reason why he’s possibly not with us. I’m the reason why we’re in this mess. I’m a terrible excuse of a human. I should be executed. I don’t deserve to be alive,” Daniella continued.
“Great! You got her started again!” Cassie snapped, glaring at me.
“What is she even talking about?” I asked, wrapping my arms around myself. This place gave me the chills and Daniella wasn’t helping.
“To many people have died because of me. Waaay to many. It’s always the people I love the most. Always the people I love the most. I shouldn’t have friends. People shouldn’t care about me. I shouldn’t be alive. I’ve killed too many people. Way to many people,” Daniella muttered.
“Lexi,” I whimpered hoping she could explain Daniella’s odd behavior.
Lexi turned her head toward me slowly. I couldn’t help but notice how.... lifeless she looked. Her eyes weren’t full of life, and happiness. The where dark and unreadable. Her skin was unbelievably pale. Her hair even looked dull. Just... flat. Her fiery red hair color, now looked like a faded red. I could see her blonde roots... yet she didn’t look like this earlier?
“What Kristen? What?” She snapped. Anger filling her eyes.
“Nevermind,” I squeaked.
“ This is all my fault. I just had to go along with that stupid plan. Now Harry’s possibly dead. Niall’s probably alone and scared in a pottery shop. Louis and Cassie have no chance of being together like you and Zayn,” Lexi said darkly. She laughed humorlessly. “I was tased 17 times on the way here. 17!” She continued to laugh. “I have a high rate of staying in jail... for the rest of my life!” Her laughter became hysterical. “I punched a cop. I spit on a cop. And I kneed a cop in the balls! I’m stuck here! All because I decided to kidnap One Di-fucking-rection! And now all my friends have to pay for it!” Her laughter turned into sobs. “I fucked up all our futures. I fucked up our chances of being with the guys. I’ve fucked up our lives... I’ve fucked up everything.” Her sobs stopped. “I’m starting to agree with Daniella... Death should be my punishment.”
“Cassie,” I whimpered. “What happened to them?”
“Kristen. Daniella’s been here for 5 hours. Lexi’s been in here for 4. I’ve been in here for 2 hours. We’re just in here... Thinking about what we’ve done. After an hour of thinking, you’ll be in our state,” She said. “If you talk about something else... They tase you.”
“Oh,” I said quietly. And then it was silent. Just... Silence. The only sound was our heavy breathing. Minutes went by, possibly hours went by and no one moved. No one made a sound. Soon the sound of footsteps reached my ears. I jumped up in the direction of the noise and stared through the bars. When I saw him: My Zayn. His hair was messy and he had a black eye. I couldn’t help it notice... He looked totally sexy like that. He looked like a real Bradford bad boy which was a total turn on...
I gave him a confused look and he whispered, “No one touches you the way that cop did.” I opened my mouth to say something but he disappeared from my sight. I sat back down on the floor feeling warmth in my heart. Despite the situation we were in, I felt semi happy. Zayn Malik beat up a cop of touching me inappropriately.
I heard more footsteps and stood up once again, looking in the direction of the footsteps.
“Louis?” I asked.
“Sup Babe?” He said his eyes locked on Cassie’s. I couldn’t help but notice his bloody lip. Had he also gotten into a fight? I opened my mouth to ask but he winked at winked at her before disappeared from our sight.
I sat back on the floor, making sure I was as far away from the other girls as possible and wondered, what happened?
