Rich to Ghetto?

Briley I'm in love with you

Walking into first period my nerves are on a rampage, i dont know how bad the fight was between Malik and Thomas, i cant help but feel bad that Thomas got hurt because of me.. but he did kiss me first. Once the bell rings i look to my left, and Thomas isnt in class. I swallow hard feeling as if it may be my fault hes not here, but just then the door flys open, and Mrs.T eyes show shock "Uh Thomas please take your seat, and try to be on time to my class tomorrow" I look at Thomas noticing a Black eye and cut lip, i flinch knowing  my boyfriend caused the pain. Thomas looks over and smiles "Briley, its just a bruise and busted lip, I'll be fine" i nod chocked for words. As the class ends, i get up and begin walking away, right before i exit the door Thomas grabs me by the hand and turns me around "Briley wait" i tuck my hair behind my ear, "Thomas i got-" he cuts me off "Briley i love you" i look down at my feet "Thomas i really got" he cuts me off, but this time by kissing me i step backwards as his lips connect with mine "Thomas i got to go to class" i start walking away fastly and he catches up pulling me by the shoulder so i can face him "Briley did you not hear me I LOVE YOU" i look down the hallway "Thomas leave me alone" i faintly whisper "please" he grabs me harder "I said-" then malik grabs thomas by the neck "She told you to leave her alone" i look at my feet, as thomas lets go locking eyes with Malik "Nobody asked you Malik, so why dont you just find another ass to toy with" malik raises a hand to punch Thomas but i jump in the middle "Please Malik don't.." Mallik looks down knowing if he gets in another fight his bond will be revoked and he will be back in jail. I look at him, then back at Thomas "Yeah Malik listen to Briley don't, you caught me off guard last time but this time you wont be walking away from the fight" Malik tries pushing pass me, but i scream "MALIK STOP" Malik grabs my hand and walks away pushing Thomas shoulder with his. I grab his hand tightly then look up barley speaking over a whisper "Mallik..we are at school" he smiles down and squeezes my hand a little harder "I know" 

*later that afternoon**

"Briley Collins may you please come down to the court house?" i look at my phone confused, figuring i have to make a statement since i witnessed the fight between Mallik and Thomas. Realizing i havent answered the lawyer i clear my throat "sure thing, what time would you like me to be there?" the lawyer answers quickly "Can you be here within the hour Briley theres not much time we were working with" this caught me off guard but i guess they need my statement 24 hours before Maliks trial. "i can be there in about 35 minutes depending on traffic" the lawyer says monotone "See you then Ms.Collins" then the line runs dead i call em "hey will you go to the court house with me, a lawyer just called and need me to come down" i wait a moment for Emilys response "You know any other time i would  but im feeling really sick today" i smile remembering that shes pregnant and not always gonna feel the best. "It's okay Em, Feel better love you" Em quickly responds "I'm sorry chica i love you to" i then hang up the phone and grab my keys

Traffic on the way to the court house is abnormally slow today, when i get there i see a lawyer standing out of court room 301 he walks towards me "Ms.Collins" i smile shyly "Thats me" he extends his hand "Im James Bankum, but please call me james" i smile and nod. "Ms.Collins please take a seat i need to explain something to you" worry starts to overcome me and i take a seat "is everything okay" he smiles but i can tell in his eye its not a real smile "Ms.Collins" "Briley" i interrupt. "Yes, Briley, i regret to inform you this, but we can finally explain why you haven't been allowed in your parents custody for the past few months" i open my mouth to interrupt but no words come out and the lawyer continues "Your father has just been found guilty of a felony credit card scam, as well as a capital murder charge" my heart falls and i shake my head in denial "what about my mom"  the lawyer takes a seat next to me "The man your father killed was your mothers boss and your mom was the one who came up with the plan" my heart sinks "there has to be some confusion here, my parents they would never do this" the lawyers places a hand on my shoulder "Ms. Collins...i mean Briley, i am so sorry to inform you but we have been investigating the case for months and your parents trial was today, they were both found guilty, we called you here today for one last supervised visit" i begin to cry "there has to be a mistake please tell me this is a prank please" the lawyer stands up as my parents are escorted out of the court room in cuffs i look at both my parents in disbelief. My mother looks at me and begins crying, then my father looks at me with a blank expression "Briley i am so sorry" i stand up and run over to my mom and hug her the officers asks to please step away. i look down at my feet, when the lawyer walks up next to me. "please take ms.collins and her family into conference room 209 for a 30 minute visit" the officers compiles with the lawyers orders and i quickly follow behind.
