Arrested

J- I kind of have a theory
S- What do you mean?
J- I might have an idea of who it is
T- Who!?
J- Who hates Erika?
T+S- Alissa!
J- Exactly!
S- Wait, when me and Tessa went up to Erika, I did see her running like she had came from her
J- We need to inform the police
T- Lets go!

We left the hospital and speeded to the police station. We ran in and saw a few officers.

J- Excuse me?
Po- Yes?
J- Um, have you heard about Erika Costell recently?
Po- Yes we have actually
J- Well we think we know who stabbed her
Po- Come with me

We followed the officer into a room and told him everything. He said we have to follow him in his car so that's what we did. He drove to Alissas house and he knocked on the door. When she opened it, her eyes went wide and she tried to shut the door but the officer stopped her and put her in a pair of cuffs.

Al- Ugh!
Po- Clam down Alissa
Al- Bullshit!
Po- Did you or did you not stab Erika Costell
Al- Yeah I did, so what!?
Po- Ok lets go, thank you guys
J- No problem

The officer took Alissa away and me, Sunny and Tessa went back to the hospital. We walked into the waiting room and waited for Erika's name to be called.

Dr- Family of Erika Costell?

We all stood up and walked towards the doctor.

Dr- Jake you should come first seen as your her boyfriend
J- Ok

The doctor took me to Erika's room and when I walked in, there was wires attached to her arms, her legs and her stomach. I teared up as I walked over and I sat down next to her. She was awake but she was told not to move.

J- Hey beautiful
E- Bubba?
J- I'm right here, don't worry, I'm not leaving anytime soon
E- I love you
J- *tears up* I love you too

I held Erika's hand tight and I squeezed her hand, then she squeezed my hand back. I looked up to see her with a smile on her face. I got up and bent down and planted a soft kiss on her lips.

J- I love you
E- *giggles* We've said that already
J- But I really do, so so much, you don't understand
E- Well, I love you too

We talked for a while and then Sunny and Tessa came in, they talked to her and now we are going to tell her the news.

J- Beautiful?
E- Mhm?
T- We have some news for you
E- Good or bad
S- Both, we found out who stabbed you
E- ...
J- We told the police and they arrested Alissa
S- So you don't need to worry about her any longer
E- I love you guys
J+S+T- We love you too

We all talked for a while and then the girls left. I drove back to mine and I got a change of clothes and some pjs and I drove back to the hospital. I promised Erika I would stay the night with her, when I got back to her room, she was moving about.

J- Baby stop moving
E- The Doctors said I can now
J- Does it hurt?
E- Yeah a little, a stinging pain though
J- Ok, I'll get changed
E- Ok

I walked into the little bathroom and took off my shirt and put on some joggers. I walked back out and I saw Erika on my phone.

J- *chuckles* What are you doing?
E- I was bored so I wanted to see what games you have
J- Download some if you want, I'll keep them for you
E- Yes!

I went over and lay down on the sofa and I just thought about life, until my thoughts were interrupted by Erika.

E- Bubba?
J- Yes beautiful?
E- Can you some sleep up here with me?
J- Are you sure?
E- 100%
J- Ok

I got up and Erika moved over. I got into bed with her and she lay her head on my bare chest.

E- Goodnight bubba
J- Goodnight beautiful

I kissed her head and we cuddled up close and fell asleep.
