"So... You're just admitting to it? No... No coaxing at all? No interrogation?"
The officer was in a state of disbelief.
"I mean... Yeah. I did it."
Nathan shrugged.
"...Why?"
"Simply out of self-defense. I'm here to prove it. I killed Kristen out of self-defense."
------------------------
14 days. 2 weeks. That's how long Nate had to wait for the state to process his case. 2 weeks until the trial that would determine the rest of his life. 2 weeks can pass in the blink of an eye. But for Nate? Those were the longest 14 days of his life.

One Minute To Midnight- Not going to be finished
“She died at seven last night, she was murdered. Knife to the chest, she struggled and it was made to look like an accident.” The woman’s memories played through my mind. Lifting my now bloody hand off of her chest, I nodded at the LAPD officials and took the sketchpad. I quickly sketched the man from her memory, and handed it back. “His name is Marcus.” With that, I left the crime scene. You can't run away from your death, it's inevitable. But what if someone could see your death, prolong your end until another time. How much would you pay, to avoid Death's clutches? How many dollars would you fork over to one woman, to extend the ticking clock of your life? Decide soon, because you're running out of time. Tick, Tock. *This story will not be finished. I don't like it, and it doesn't make any sense. I'm going to leave it up, and it may be re-written one day. Thanks for your patience.Complete
Unstable | E.D (Book 2)
"We're breaking him out." Grayson announced to the rest of the gang. His eyes darted to me as my eyes almost popped out of my head. We? "We? As in, including me?" I asked profoundly. I can't break Ethan out of prison, that's impossible. How would that even work. He's in a maximum security unit, guarded by hundred of guards, we'll never be able to get in. That's a suicidal mission, we'll be killed. "Yes we, including you Jas." Jason nods, standing next to Grayson. My jaw was on the floor. "I can't do something like that, I can barely shoot a gun." I told them, shaking my head. "It's either we break him out, or he will probably die. You think Ethan can last seven years without you Jas? He can barely last two hours! He's a criminal, the most wanted one in the US. Someone will get to him eventually. " Grayson expressed. "He'll be dead within a month." My stomach churns at the though of Ethan's dead body lying face down on his prison cell. I feel a lump in my throat just by the feeling of him being away from me. These months has been hell. He's probably being treated horribly. Hearing Grayson say the truth out loud makes me feel sick. I know he's right. I know I have to do whatever it takes to get him back. My life doesn't matter without him. Without him, I can't be happy. I'll do anything it takes to get him back. Even if it costs me my life. "I'm in."

Let You Down (Criminal Minds)
Audrey Denali was a beautiful Native American girl. She was wise beyond her years. She was actually quite smart; graduating high school by the age of fifteen. One thing about Audrey that everyone should know, was that she had secrets. The secrets were kept between her and her mother, Odina. When Audrey was eighteen years old, she was attacked by a man while out with her friends. The man was later captured, after he had apparently attacked three other girls. Unlike the other girls, Audrey fell pregnant. The pregnancy wasn't easy, nor was it easy to hide from anyone else on the reservation, but she and her mother were able to keep the secret. When the pregnancy was no longer able to be hidden, Odina decided it was time for Audrey to branch out on her own. Instead of staying on the reservation, Audrey decided to find herself a home in the city. She figured if she got away from the reservation, she could find herself a boyfriend and be able to hide what happened to her. Everyone on the reservation would've accepted her son, but she felt ashamed of herself, so she couldn't make herself stay. Mateo Ezra Denali was born right after Audrey's nineteenth birthday. Audrey loved Mateo more than anything, even though she had to leave her home to raise him. He was her whole world, even at times when her world seemed to be crashing around her. A year later, when Audrey and Mateo were on their way home from the park, they were grabbed by a man who had been kidnapping women and their babies. The BAU had to work together fast to save Mateo and Audrey before the unsub had a chance to kill them. During the time they were trying to find the unsub and the people he captured, Garcia uncovers secrets the team never seen coming...Complete
Lies - Criminal Minds || Spencer Reid Fanfiction
{Book Two} COMPLETED - SPOILERS PRIOR TO SEASON 12 It's been two and a half years since Melanie Hotchner last stepped foot inside the BAU in Quantico, Virginia. During that time almost everything has changed, including the new BAU in Albany, New York. "You have to heal, Reid." He nodded his head and smiled. "I have. In my own way. I'm with Dylan now." "I know that. But just because you've moved on and you're with someone else, doesn't mean you've forgotten or gotten over what you and Melanie had." They say time is a healer, but not everybody can be healed. The endless respect everyone once held for Melanie is now shrinking, running tension and emotions high. "Profilers. We're logical, observant, fast. We're not sneaky or suspicious or sly or liars, Spence. We shouldn't be doing this. This isn't who we are. And if you're even a shred of the man I fell in love with, you'll realise just how mad this is." But as usual, Melanie's past finds a way of catching up with her, and begs the question; has too much water gone under the bridge for her and Spencer? Old ghosts come back to haunt her and have her running back to what she's always known.
