Take Me to The Races

Prisoners

I took a seat across from Sheriff Keller, for some reason I was one of the students being questioned about Midge. "When was the last time you talk to Midge?" He got right to it.

I bite my lip, thinking about it. I didn't talk to her a lot lately. I haven't talked to much Northsiders since it came out that I was dating a Ghoulie. Now that I thought about it, I wasn't sure if that was on their part or mine. If it was because, I got busy doing my part for the Ghoulie or if they don't want to talk to a criminal's girlfriend. "When I visited Moose in the hospital after they were attacked," I answer.

"Is it true that you tutored Moose?" He asks after look down at his notes.

"Yes, what does that have to do with anything?" I narrow my eyes.

"Maybe you gain feelings for him. You acted out of jealousy." He stares at my face waiting for a reaction.

I bite the inside of my cheek to stop from snapping, "You can ask my parents or Chic, I didn't leave my seat for the whole play."

"Chic, Alice's son?" He raises his eyebrows, not aware that we had a friendship.

"Yeah, he was sitting next to me." I shrug, trying to come off as us being acquaintance. Chic isn't someone who had the best reputation.

"That irrelevant, considering the connections you have." He leaned back in his chair.

"What? What does that mean?" I sneer.

"Can you tell me where all the Ghoulies were that night?" He asks.

"You think that my boyfriend's friend killed a girl, so that I would have a shot with her boyfriend?" I let out a bitter laugh at the ridiculousness of that theory.

"Maybe you spin them a different story to get them to do it? You didn't answer my question." He shrugs.

"No, I don't know where all the Ghoulies were that night. Why are you treating me like the prime suspect? You saw who signed that death note." I grip the arms of the wooden chair I was sitting on.

"The Black Hood is gone." He told me.

"How do you know that?" I cocked my head to the side.

"Svenson was the Black Hood. I caught him trying to bury your brother. I shot him." He said it slowly like I was stupid.

"Exactly, you never got to question him. How do you know that he wasn't working with someone else?" I point out the flaws in the actions that happened that day.

"Because, I know," He gave that shitty come back that all adults use when they have no reason. They use their age and authority to overrule you.

"I'm done with this. So unless you're going to arrest me, I'm going." I stood up from the chair. When he didn't stop me, I walk over to the door and open it. "You're one of those people who have great intentions, but you're just shitty at your job." I slam it.

I ran out of the station with Jughead, Archie, Veronica, and Betty chasing after me. "What's wrong?" Archie grab me, to stop me from getting into the Red Hot Mama.

"He thinks I killed Midge!" I cried.

"What?" Their jaw drops in shock.

"He thinks I gain feelings for Moose while tutoring him and got a Ghoulie to kill her out of jealousy, which is flawed on some many levels. If he wants to use the jealousy theory he should look at his son. BECAUSE KEVIN FUCKED MOOSE, NOT ME! BEING THE DIRECTOR, HE HAD ACCESS TO HER..." I shout at the police station. I wish I would have thought about that when I was in there. But, I was so over well at the thought of going to jail for a murder I didn't commit.
