say.

 

 

As soon as I was about to ignore him and leave, police cars and NYPD showed up.

 

"Put your hands on your head and get down on the ground." A big guy said.

 

"What?" I say.

 

"You heard him, get on the ground." the Craig guy said.

 

"What is happening." I whispered.

  

"You're under arrest get down on the ground." the police said again.

 

 

"I don't understand." I said now concerned.

 

Mom and dad came out from nowhere and I looked back at them.

 

"Elle what's going on?" mom asked, trying to approach me.

 

"We watched you from a far, making sure you got to your car safely." she exclaims.

 

 

One officer got i nfront of mom trying to pull her away from me.

 

I want to protest, don't touch my mother.

 

Just then, Sara got out of a cop car with a signature P.I. coat on.

 

 

"I got it from here boys." she said, to the officer.

 

 

The officer nodded as she approached me.

 

"Elle Woods, i've been keeping an eye on you for too long. But now the day's come. Right on time exactly." she said.

 

 

As I looked at my watch, I saw it was twelve o'clock. It was time for my blog media meeting.

 

Everyone is waiting for my appearance.

 

 

"This can't be happening." I said, looking at the many guns pointed at me ready to shoot.

 

"This is happening alright, you're under arrest for the charges of muder and disappearance for Herny Woods." Sara said.

 

Coming up to me and cuffing my hands, she does it quickly.

 

I hear gasps from across the street.

 

 

"What! No, I can't be going to jail. How can anyone do this?" I said.

 

"I tracked down your life from 2 years ago. Your killed your father, then you left him to die." Sara said, as she pushed me to the car.

 

 

I tried to look back to my mom.

 

"Sara what are you doing?" I heard someone say.

 

I looked up and it was Kyle.

 

 

Sara paused then, said something.

 

"Doing my job. I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier, but i'm a Private Investigator. And Elle's under arrest for killing her father."

 

"What?" he questioned.

 

Sara kept trying to get me in the car, but Kyle kept talking.

 

"Look Kyle, what we have, it's over. My job is done. I don't need you. You were just someone I needed, to cover me until I could finally arrest Elle." Sara said, extra heartless into her feelings.

 

"You befriended Elle, only to arrest her."

 

"She's a known killer. She killed her dad, didn't you hear me?" Sara yells.

 

Kyle looked stunned and hurt. 

 

"But I love you.." she said.

 

 

Sara sat me down inside the car, before closing the door.

 

"I never did love you truly, like how you wanted me to. And I never will. Let's put this behind us. We can always be friends." she said, before slamming the door on me.

 

 

I sat in silence, before Sara and the officer got inside the car and drove me off.

 

Mom was the last sight I saw, as she tried to approach the car.

 

 

As Sara announced the other officers to scatter, I heard one last thing from my mom.

 

"I still love you Elle, no matter what. I forgive you." she said.

 

 

Before even saying anything back, she was pulled away from the scene and the car window.

 

I watched as the flashing light from the police cars blinked obnoxiously.

 

 

I looked at Sara, sitting in the passenger seat smiling at the rear view mirror.

 

Her feet on the dash/

 

"Today's my lucky day, locking up my old boss and getting back on the scene again. Life is so good." she said, snearing.

 

 

I looked out the window, as cars passed by and the siren wirred from the car.

 

Jacob was gonna come to see me, now he's gonna be devastated to no see me there.

 

And Marybella is gonna wanna see me soon. Now I can't promise her that.

 

 

What's gonna happen now? It's because of the big stupid mistake I made in my life.

 

If only, if only I had listened. To him.

 

 

It was for a good reason.

 

I was protecting myself.

 

But I wish I can go back in time and rewind, so that I can leave without hurting him.

 

 

Why, why do all the bad things happen to me.

 

I shut my eyes in preparation for what's to come next.

 

And when I opened my eyes again, we were at the hospital.

 

 

"Wait, why are we here?" I asked sitting up.

 

"To visit your friend Marybella, before you head off to jail. You'll be uncuffed, but I have my eyes on you. When we reach the station, you'll have your last goodbye before you're sent to the cells." Sara said.

 

 

She pulled me out and uncuffed me.

 

"I'm watching you." she said, following beside me.

 

 

Even in the midst of me going to jail, she still cared about how much I was there for Bella.

 

As I entered into Marybella's room, Sara stood by the door outside. Not to be seen.

 

Marybella was smiling, then turned to me.

 

 

"Elle, I have my voice back and i'm engaged." she said squealing.

 

With every passing second, I tried my best no to seem nervous.

 

 

Perking up the best smile I could, I had to put up a front.

 

I was really dying inside.

 

She's engaged now. Mark must have asked her to marry him, like he said.

 

 

Like how he told me yesterday.

 

 

I walked over to her, looking to Sara. Then back to Bella.

 

"Aww, your ring is so beautiful." I said touching it.

 

She extends her hand to me.

 

 

"It fits your finger perfectly." I say.

 

"And that's not all.." she said.

 

 

She paused to breathe in, then looked to me.

 

"I've been waiting to tell you both this, for so long. I hope it doesn't ruin the moment, but I want to say it now." she said.

 

"For 9 months I had lung cancer. And I never told anyone, because I was afriad about people worrying about me, especially Mark. I didn't want to end up like my mom, when she had lung cancer. So I decided to get treatment here at this hospital. After the big fight with my dad, during christmas, I planned to keep the secret for a little longer. Unil at least I got the surgery done." Bella says.

 

 

I looked into her eyes and knew that she was telling the truth.

 

"I'm sorry for lying to you guys and tellling you that it's fine. But now it's okay. I'm done with surgery for now and I plan on living my life perfecty. Now that i'm engaged, i'm looking forward to a wedding. A brighter future." she said smiling, as she cried.

 

A tear fell from her eye.

 

I bursted into tears and hugged her.

 

As we hugged, Mark turned up the news and they heard about me going in jail and arrested.

 

 

Marybella looked up.

 

"Elle, are you being arrested?" she said, her smile now downwards.

 

I couldn't deny it.

 

"Yes, and i'm sorry to tell you this. But remember..."

 

I paused and started crying again, this time uncontrollably.

 

 

"What?" Marybella said, starting to cry too.

 

"Remember when I told you about finding my real dad, and about my step dad?"

 

"Yeah.." Marybella said.

 

 

She was trying to hold my hand, but I pull away.

 

She's gonna leave me.

 

I leaned down, with my head up far away from Bella.

 

"I killed my step dad." I said, trying to hold back the tears.

 

"No." Marybella said silently.

 

 

She laid back on her bed, her eyes wet with tears and her face turning from white to a blushed red.

 

"Elle....tell me...this isn't true." she said, sobbing between each words.

 

 

I nodded my head, unable to look up.

 

My voice would shake with fear, if I spoke.

 

Marybella fell back on her bed, again sobbing louder this time.

 

 

Just as the moment got emotional, someone pulled me back. Holding my hands and putting them together.

 

When I realized I was being pulled, I knew it was Sara. She had enough and needed to take me to the station.

 

 

"Let's go, slow poke." she said.

 

Pulling me back and finally cuffing me.

 

 

Marybella yelled, screaming as Sara pulled me away.

 

"Marybella I promise i'll get out of jail soon, somehow....just pleaese don't hate me!!" I said lastly.

 

 

I was pulled out of her room and down the hall.

 

My tears ran again, as the officers took me out of the hospital and to the police car.

 

 

 

Marybella's P.O.V

 

 

Mark tried to calm me down, but I woldn't budge.

 

My body was going in all different directions. but my mind kept picturing Elle being taken away over and over again.

 

I screamed and cried again.

 

Why Elle, why does this has to happen to my one and only good friend.

 

 

The nurses came in, trying to keep from jumping off the bed. I cried and cried, trying to control my feelings.

 

But tears kept falling down my cheeks.

 

 

I wrestled the nurses, trying to fight back and run out of the hospital. So I can chase Elle.

 

The nurses finally grabbed a hold of me and stuck a shot into my arm.

 

I flinched, because it hurts as much as the pain i'm feeling for Elle right now.

 

 

They put back on my breathing mask, due to my sobbing and told me to calm down.

 

As I powered down and felt weak again. I layed there on the hospital bed, weeping and sobbing.

 

Mark finally spoke.

 

 

"I don't know what to say, is Elle really going to jail?" 

 

"Elle's gone, she's really gone now. I don't even hate her for this." I said, looking up at the lights.

 

 

I breathed in and out slowly, as my eyelids closed and open.

 

--

 

Elle's P.O.V

 

 

I was pushed around by other people, who have done somethime terrible too, like me.

 

I stared at bad guys, bad girls. People who broke the law and then there was me.

 

 

The girl who murdered her step-father and ran away.

 

"Alright, you'll take it from here, make sure she's locked up. She's serving for 1 year." I heard Sara say.

 

 

As I sat down in a seat with 2 other empty ones to my left and right, I couldn't bare the thought.

 

"Good luck." Sara said, as she left to the door.

 

 

"Wait!" I said finally looking up.

 

"Why would you go through all this trouble, finding your way in life, working at FARELLE, spying on me. Betraying me, setting me up in situations that weren't worth it and all just to catch me and put me in jail? Why is this your prized possesion?" I said, putting thought into my answer.

 

 

She picked on a pen than looked up to me.

 

"Because it's my job, because i'm a private investigator. Because it's what I do, and all of it is worth it, because now i'm back at it again after not working for so long. It means so much to lock people up, for their crimes. So there's your answer." Sara said.

 

With Sara finally walking through the station's exit doors, I never felt that mad since.

 

  

I looked around and thought, how did I got here.

 

And all it took, was but one simple thing in life.

 

Getting what I want.

 

 

It was for Paris. 

 

 

What do I do now?

 

I looked around at the other people, who were just as bad as me.

 

One guy turned his head to me staring into my eyes.

 

"Welcome..."

 

 

I was scared for my own life, I didn't know what people were capable of in jail.

 

I looked up at the sign built in over the cell entrance, it read.

 

In-mates

 

 

"Now i'm a part of it." I say, scared.
