"I'll tell you during lunch" I told Brayden and walked we walked down the hall in silence.

*************************************

"Okay, I moved here because I got arrested" I said. "You got arrested?" Brayden asked. "yes, I was arrested for drinking alcohol and doing drugs, I had been in the system before due to vandalism" I explained. "My mom got tired of me causing trouble so she sent me to live with my uncle, Antonio Dawson, he's a detective. my mom thought that if I went with him he would be able to straighten me out" I explained. "what about your dad?" Brayden asked. "he's in jail" I said. "why?" Brayden asked. "I don't know, my mom never told me" I said. "Wow, I thought you were just another girl that moved here" Brayden said. "No, I'm actually a delinquent" I said.

After lunch Brayden made the excuse that he had to use the bathroom. I knew that he was trying to decipher who I was. I sighed and picked up my bag and walked out.

"Hey how's you first day?" Zelda asked as I walked into Art. "pretty good" I said. "I saw you walking with a guy" Zelda winked. "oh Brayden, he's a friend, or he was, until now" I said. "Why?" Zelda asked. "I told him who I really was" I said. "what do you mean?" Zelda asked. "I moved here because I got arrested" I said. "arrested? But your uncle is a cop" Zelda said. "ironic isnt it" I said. "look that's a lot to take in, give him time" Zelda said. "yeah youre right" I said. "hey there's going to a small gathering at this abandon building," Zelda said. "sure, what time?" I asked. "ten" Zelda said. "I'll see if I can sneak out" I said.

After school I walked to my locker and saw Brayden waiting there. "hey" I said. "look I know I walked off on you, but you gotta understand you were in jail! I thought you were just another girl" Brayden said. "Well I'm not" I said. "I know" Brayden said. "I'm not the kind of girl that's going to beg for you to be my friend" I said and crossed my arms across my chest. "Give me time" Brayden said. "take all the time you need" I said and walked off.

I walked into the station and threw my backpack onto the floor of the break room. "woah what's wrong?" Erin asked. "so I made a friend his name is Brayden and we have every class together, in math these guys were harassing me and I stood up to them and he asked me who I really was so I explained everything and he walked off and he's all like "you've been in jail I need time" like boy take all the time you need I'm not begging you to be my friend" I explained. "Like why do you need to judge me on my past" I said. "I completely understand" Erin said. "you do?" I asked. "my dad is in jail and my mom was a druggie, I was going down the wrong path, Voigt found me and straightened me out, took me in and now I'm part of his unit" Erin said. "wow, basically like me" I said,"my mom doesn't want me and my dad is in jail" I said. "your dad is in jail?" Erin asked. "yes, but I don't know where, I know that Antonio knows and my mom knows but they don't want to tell me" I said. "It's gotta be something big for them to keep it a secret" Erin said. "Hey how was your day?" Antonio asked. "it was great" I lied. Erin looked over at me and I just smiled. "great" Antonio said. "well I should get going, ill leave you guys alone" Erin said and walked off.

I sat on Antonio's desk and did my homework while they talked about a new case.

Once he was done we got into the car and drove off.

After eating Antonio went to work out while I sat in my room.

I took a shower and sat in my bed in my pjs. I turned on my speakers and started blasting Citizen.

Luka:hey how was your day?

Me:it was okay

Luka:do you miss us?

Me:yeah

Luka:when are you moving back?

Me:I don't know, my mom hasn't said anything

Luka:maybe I can come over during break?

Me:yes!

Luka:what are you doing?

Me:I'm about to go to this abandon building, gathering thing.

Luka:some people never change cx

Me:hey I may have moved but I'm still the same.

Luka:never change love

Me:it's almost time, ill text you later.

Luka:bye.

Me:bye

I looked at the clock and saw that it was eight-thirty.

"Hey Alexa" Antonio said and knocked on the door. "yeah" I said and opened it. "I'm gonna head off to bed, tomorrow morning I'm visiting my kids, so I'll see you at the station after school" Antonio said. "Okay" I said. "good night" Antonio said. "good night" I said and Antonio walked off.

I locked the door and changed into a black long sleeve shirt with a pair of denim high waisted shorts and a pair of ripped black tights and a pair of red doc martens. I left my hair wavy and added mascara and eyeliner.

Zelda:are u coming?

Me:yeah,

Zelda:want me to pick you up?

Me:please

Zelda:I'll be there in ten

Me:okay I'll be waiting outside.

I stuffed my phone in my pocket and slipped on my black leather jacket. I opened the window and stepped onto the fire escape. I slowly climbed down the steps and onto the sidewalk.

"Hey" Zelda said as I saw her. "hey" I said. "ready to go?" Zelda asked. "yes" I said and we walked down the street.

"Here we are" Zelda said and we climbed into the fire escape of an abandon building.

"Hey guys I brought a friend" Zelda said to a group of three guys. "this is Alexa" Zelda said. "hey" I said. "Aron" a guy with pitch black spiked up hair and green eyes said. "Michael" a guy with blond hair dyed green said. "So she's new so I expect you guys to treat her nicely" Zelda said. "where'd you move from?" Aron asked. "San Diego" I said. "why'd you leave San Diego and move here?" Michael asked. "I got into trouble with the law so I was forced to move here" I explained. "oh we got ourselves a trouble maker" Aron winked. "ex trouble maker, I'm changing my habits" I said. "really?" Zelda asked. "no" I said. "well hey join the club" Michael said. "So how old are you guys?" I asked and took a seat on the floor next Zelda. "I'm sixteen" Aron said. "Same" Michael said,"what about you?" Michael asked. "sixteen" I said. "Are you going to Patterson?" Aron asked. "yes" I said. "she was gonna go to Cambridge but I told her she wouldn't fit in" Zelda said. "typical Zelda intervening with people's future" Michael said. "she said I would meet people who had the same music taste as me" I said. "what kind of music do you like?" Aron asked. "punk, alternative, metal, post-hardcore and indie" I said. "we're all about alternative and Punk" Zelda said. "Yes, the 1975 and Neck deep are our favorite" Michael said. "Me too" I said. "hey looks like we're gonna be great friends" Aron said. "Defiantly" I said. "you smoke?" Michael asked and offered me a cigarette. "yes" I said and took one. "Drink?" Aron asked and offered me a beer while Zelda handed me a lighter. "yeah" I said and took one. I blew out smoke and looked out into the dark Chicago night.

"I gotta go" I said as I looked at the time. "Where'd you live by?" Michael asked. "magnolia blvd" I said "wow the nice part of town" Aron said. "is it?" I asked. "want us to walk you home?" Michael asked. "no it's fine I can manage" I said. "are you sure?" Zelda asked. "yes" I said. "okay well we'll see you tomorrow at school" Aron said. "yeah bye" I said and walked out.

It was three am and I was a sixteen year old walking home alone, horrible combination.

I was walking down the street a few meters away from the apartment. "give me all your belongings and I give it all second thought when it comes to hurting you" A voice said behind me. "please don't hurt me" I said and took reached into my pocket. I elbowed him and made a run for it. I ran into the building and bumped into someone. "woah what's going on?" He asked. "help me please" I said. "sh" he said and we hid in the darkness.

"It's become a habit of you to roam the streets at night, hasn't it?" he asked and I looked up.
