Chapter 12:
I can’t believe they would fucking do this to me; out of all people. My mind was filled with intense hatred as my hearing picked up the slam of the chain gate fence to our small ‘stretch area’ closing me into this…this space filled with guys who looked tougher and scarier than me or Grant even.
Speaking of Grant…my anger flared and my fist clenched as the memory flashed in my mind. It happened a day ago but the memory was still fresh in my mind. I remember being pinned down by the officer and his harsh words that made my hopes and dreams practically die.
“Let’s go,” he had said in a rough voice, clicking handcuffs on my wrist before pulling me up. I remembered trying to struggle against the cuffs, only to end up with my wrists all red and raw now.
My memory shifted to when the officer began to lead me towards his car. I could hear Elena shouting my name and I know she’s being held back by the other policeman. I turn to send her a look telling her to stop struggling and wait. If she didn’t, it’d only be worse for her. I know I could survive juvenile but Elena? I couldn’t even picture that image without crying.
The next memory was the worst; seeing Grant and Brittney side by side. Principal Erida stood only a few inches away, eyes sparkling in excitement at the sight of my arrest. The police officer had stopped walking as we approached the trio.
“What happened?” I snarled at them. I could tell right away this was all Brittney and Grant’s doing, those evil, sinister smiles never leaving their faces.
“You should know what happened?” Principal Erida screamed, pointing an accusing finger at me.
Ok, my mind has been officially fucked. I gave her a confused look which only resulted in a snort.
“Don’t play dumb with me Ms. Lian. We know you destroyed the lab. You almost blew up the whole building!”
WHAT?! “I did not do that! That’s totally untrue!”
“LIES!!!” Principal Erida screamed.
All the while, I noticed Grant and Brittney sending me smiles that even the Joker would be terrified of. The spark in their eyes made it well obvious that it was their doing. They destroyed the lab and blamed me. Now, I’m taking the fall.
“Maybe you’ll learn how to be good in juvenile,” Brittney said, a hinting, provocative tone in her voice.
“It’s for the best,” Grant added and it was obvious that they weren’t talking about the lab destruction. It was about my sexuality, going out with Elena. Basically, I was getting arrested for who I was.
And that’s how I ended up in this situation. Chained fences all around me, wearing that disgusting orange jumpsuit that blended me in with all the other delinquents who spent their lives here rotting. God I hated the two of them. They were like the devil incarnate. They were good for nothing traitors. When I get out, I’m going to torture so much that they beg for mercy. I didn’t care if I went to jail again; revenge would just be oh so sweet.
“Well hey there cute thing,” I turned around to see a group of guys approaching me, eyes lustful and glittering. Signals like that meant big trouble.
“What do you want?” I snarl teeth bearing like a wild animal would do.
Instead of scaring them though, they laughed. That only served to anger me even more.
