Innocence

The True Story

Abigail's POV

Only one word went through my head as I saw Bones running towards AJ.

Shit.

I quickly stepped in front of AJ. "Bones. Calm down."

"No!! What did he say to you? Why the hell are you crying?!" He tried to get past me but every time he moved, I moved.

"He didn't do anything!! Now CALM DOWN!!!" I yelled. He took a step back in shock. They both did.

I took a deep breathe to calm myself down. "I'm sorry. There's just been a lot to take in. There is something I need to tell you. Both of you."

I walked back to the table AJ and I were sitting at earlier and sat down. I waited for them to do the same.

When they did, I took a deep breathe to prepare myself for what I was about to say.

"I didn't jump Mark. He jumped me." I looked up from my fingers to see two very shocked faces.

I was walking down the street with a coffee in my hand. Suddenly there was a tap on my shoulder. I turned to see a blonde Australian.

"Can I help you?" I asked annoyed.

"Yes you can," he said getting way too close to me. His breathe smelt like beer. Great. A drunken Aussie. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm leaving." I said letting my boredom show. I started to walk away but I was yanked back by my arm.

"No you aren't!" He sneered.

"Who the hell do you think you are?! Get away from me!" I tried to fight him but his grip tightened.

I was then pulled into a black alleyway. "Get off of me you asshole!" I screamed. He turned around and slapped me.

"You better respect me, American." he sneered.

"Why should I?!" I got right back into his face.

"I like them fiery." He said into my ear. He then started to leave kisses down my neck. I was officially grossed out. His hands got a little too touchy feely.

No matter how hard I tried to fight him, he pushed harder. His lips moved from my neck to my face. Soon he was putting his lips on mine. While he was distracted I kneed him in the nuts.

"You bitch!! Security!!"

Security?? What the....

Suddenly two very big men grabbed me.

Fan-freaking-tastic.

"Then I was tried for attacking him and he obviously won." I shrugged.

There was an awkward silence while we all processed when just happened.

"Wow..." AJ was the first to break the silence. "Your dad was right. You are innocent." I just nodded.

"That little......" Oh no.

"Bones....." I warned.

"Don't Bones me! That little piece of shit framed you for what you were the victim of!!!" He stood up and began to angrily pace back and forth.

"There is nothing we can do." I said bowing my head in defeat.

"Actually," both Bones and I spun our heads to look at AJ. "I already told you Chief, you have an entire team of lawyers trying to find a way to prove your innocence."

"What group of lawyers is dumb enough to try and go up against the Australian Government?" Asked Bones.

"Not everyone likes the Prime Minister. And they sure as hell don't like his son. There are a lot of people who want to take Mark down. Mark is a spoiled son of a bitch and everyone knows that. He's also the Prime Minister's son but we can use that to an advantage."

"How?" I asked feeling the hope come back.

"Embarrassment." I looked at Bones in confusion. He looked at me the same way. "When this incident first happened, Mark and his dad got a lot of supporters. People that didn't know the true story. Once the true story is out, Mark will loose his reputation."

"And so will his father." I said finally catching on.

"Which means, he'll punish Mark more than the media will." Bones began to laugh. "What goes around comes around."

I smirked. "You better sleep with one eye open Mark because everything is about to change."
