I sat in the back of a police car as the drove me towards the police station, 
"you have the right to remain silent" the police officer in the front seat began saying

"anything you say can be used against you in the court of law" I pressed my head onto the cold glass window, tears slowly and silently streaming down my face. 
"I alright t-told you.. I wasn't trying to kill anyone.." I muttered quietly from the backseat.  
"Ma'am we have wit-" 
"yes but she only saw a snipped of what was going on he was going to ki-"
"I said, you have the right to remain silent and I think it would be better if you chose to be quiet, thankyou"

I bit down onto my lip in anger and disappointment, so hard that I began to taste blood trickle from where my teeth were digging into my lip. The car came to a stop and the police officer came around and opened the door, grabbing my arm and pulling me out rather roughly
"could you please be a little more gentle?" I asked politely but the officer just growled and kept his grip. 
"You're friendly huh?" I looked up at him as he dragged me towards the police station.
"being rude to a police officer is considered an offence ma'am" He growled once more, I just rolled my eyes and followed him.. it's not like i had a choice anyways. 

After alot of questioning and paperwork, they put me in a temporary jail cell, I was to stay here until they work out whether i was innocent or guilty. I sat in the corner of the room, I was almost certain I didn't have a cell mate as I was the only one sitting in the dark small room.  

I pressed my head against the brick wall, staring off into space, what if Jason wakes up to see i'm not there? what if he doesn't wake up at all? what if Reckless got a moment alone with him and... I can't even think about what he would do if reckless got alone with Jason. 

I shut my eyes lightly until a heard a loud bang of the cell door opening and a girl screaming, I looked up to see two officers holding onto a girl, the officers were lifting her near her shoulders so that her feet were inches from the floor. She was screaming and kicking her legs until they threw her in the cell with me, I grew afraid. 

"you can't keep me in here forever!" she screamed, spitting in the direction of the officers. silly girl. I pulled my legs closer to my chest, her head shot in my direction
"oh.. you're my new cell mate.."  I nodded slowly 
"I'm Alex" she stood up and walked towards me slowly, extending her hand towards me. 
"I'm Dest-"
"Destiny Willows?!" she interrupted.
"uh.. yes..?" she had a tone in her voice like she knew me. 

"NO WAY!" I screwed up my face
"It's me! the one that cheated off your test in maths three  years in a row!" that's when it hit me, the beautiful girl with hair up to her belly button infront of me was infact Alex, the female badass of the school.
"I never thought i'd be sharing a cell with you!" she sat down next to me and made herself comfortable.
"oh.. this is only temporary.."  
"you mean you aren't staying? I was happy to finally get some company.." she pouted.

"This is a mistake.. I'm innocent.."
"sure you are.. that's what i was saying the first time i was in here" First time? so she's been in here more than once!
"no i mean.. my boyfriend got shot and I'm getting blamed for it.." she nodded slowly,
"are they taking you to court..?" she asked me placing a hand on my shoulder gently. 
"I guess so.. I mean they do think i tried to kill  two people and before  you ask me what happened and stuff, i was threatening to kill one of them but he knew i wasn't going to do it.." she sighed.

"okay well.. court is scary.. and hectic.. and just.. blah but i'll give you some pointers" I nodded slowly and unsurly 
"when you walk into that court room, don't make eye contact with anyone but your lawyer, the judge and the people who you're going up against"  I nodded unsurely once more, 
"you have a lawyer right..?" she asked, i shook my head slowly
"don't worry, they'll get you a good one.. anyways! when you get in there sit down, don't act nervous and do not act guilty!"

that conversation went on and on and on until she got to the last one
"and if someone's lying, don't yell at them, it'll make your case worse" I nodded one more time and brought my head back down to my knees.
"what are you here for..?" I mumbled to alex
"right now i'm in here for throwing an apple at the police officer.."
"smart.." I said sarcastically.

She got up and layed down onto the bed, her long hair draping over the side of the bed, I was always jealous of her hair, well I was always jealous of her in general. she was beautiful, although she skipped every second day of school and would fail every test, I still envied her.

"so tell me about this boyfriend of yours.. the one that you apparently tried to kill" she chuckled as she closed her eyes lightly 
"oh he's something.. special"  I laughed slightly
"what's his name? I might know him, has he ever been in jail? because then i'd know him"
"he's probably been in jail" I laughed slightly "and he's name's Jas- Trouble" she opened her eyes and looked at me confused, rolling onto her stomach. 
"Trouble? nickname?"
"uh.. no.."
"what kind of parents call their kid Trouble...?" She laughed and began plaiting her hair.

"he defiantly lives up to his name.." I laughed once more, my mind flashing back to him in the hospital bed, lifeless. I frowned slightly,
"what's wrong?" alex asked, noticing my sudden frown
"oh nothing.. he's just in hospital.. i wanted ot be there when he woke up" she sighed
"he'll understand.." I nodded slowly.

there was a moment of silence before she opened her mouth once more,
"so how'd you guys get together..?" she asked
"oh just the usual romance story, he climbed through my window a few times, peer pressured me into drinking.. called my named constantly" I shrugged playfully, she laughed
"wait, he climbed through your window? i wouldn't call that normal.." I giggled at the memory of him scaring me that night i watched scream. what a fun night that was! 

"is he cute?" 
"extremely"  
"Funny?"
"extremely"
"sweet?" I laughed slightly
"you could say that.." she smiled at me
"is there anything i've missed?"
"he's..."
"he's..?"
"Dangerous.."  her smile grew larger. 

"Dangerous you say?" she got on the edge of the bed "how so?" 
"like...he could kill you in 50 ways and make it looked like he slipped.."  She laughed loudly,
"this guy! i need to meet him!" I giggled as I heard the cell door open slowly,

"Ms.Willows?" a man in a suit said, he has two guards standing next to him because I'm just 'so dangerous' note the sarcasm.
"I'm your lawyer, will you come with me..?" I nodded and stood up slowly.

if Reckless didn't threaten to kill Jason then I wouldn't be in the situation, but I promised myself that I would win in the court room, in any way possible.
