Halston's POV
"Our bus got pulled over. Bryce good had like 2 ounces of Mary Jane on him. It's a misdemeanor... I didn't get so lucky," he sighed.
"What do you mean you didn't get so lucky?" I asked, my heart racing a million miles per hour.
"I had 2 ounces of Mary Jane too... but also 400gs of crushed up Psylocybin (this part is fictional,this was just one of the drugs listed under the penalty group 2 that he was charged with)."
"The magic mushroom? Are you kidding me Jaden?!" I gasped. " I cannot believe you! Doesn't a penalty group 2 mean possible jail time? "
My dad was a public defender for the state of Los Angeles until '09, so I know a couple of things about the law...
"2-10 years..."
I gasped again and covered my mouth.
"Are you serious?"
"That's only worst case scenerio, " he sighed, but even he didn't sound convinced.
"Well do you have someone to bail you out?" I asked.
"Hals, it's like 3 in the morning over here. They just finished booking Bryce like twenty minutes ago. The boys were able to bail him out because his bail was lower but my mine is a lot more because of the magic mushrooms so I might spend the night-"
"Shut up!" I said.
"Huh?"
"Shut up and put me on the phone with a guard. I'll bail you out," I sighed, reached for my phone to check my account.
"Halston, no, i-"
"Jaden, shut up, please. I'm really tired and don't have the energy to argue with you right now," I mumbled.
"Halston, it's $10,000," he said quietly.
"Okay," I nodded even though he couldn't here me. Money wasn't really an issue since I made most of my money from TikTok and YouTube. "Put me through to the clerk Jaden."
"Okay, hold on," Jaden said and the call was transferred to a police clerk. The whole process took about an hour and a half, but they finally released Jaden.
About twenty mintues after I had finalized the bail, Jaden FaceTimed me from his phone.
"Hey," I rubbed my eyes, getting up to stretch since I had been hunched over the phone for a while.
"Hey, thanks," he said.
"It's no problem," I said.
"Hals..." he whispered, he entered the bathroom and closed the door. Then he looked at the camera and said, "this... this has been the worst year of my life Halston."
"Jaden, I-I told you not to do that stuff," I sighed, standing up and getting out of the frame. "And you could do actual time for this."
"I know," Jaden whisper-shouted, there was silence. Then, a sob. And another. And another. Running back to my phone, I saw Jaden with his hand over his mouth sobbing. I stayed silent to let his cries run their course. It made me emotional as usual.
Jaden's POV
I was having a panic attack in the jail cell. Bryce was gone and it was just me. All alone. When my time came to make a phone call, my brain fogged up. The only phone number that came to my mind was hers.
"Hello?" I heard a yawn on the other line.
"Hals..." I snapped out of whatever was causing me to panic and focused on the sound of her voice.
