Chapter 1
Everyone always used to say that I would be the one to end up in jail, but I bet they didn't expect murder to be the reason behind it. Of course, it was self defense. If I didn't kill him, then I would be dead.
"Lucy, I really don't think we should go this way. You know what people say about this alleyway." James, my twin brother, was shaking with fear.
"Don't be such a wuss, J. We'll be fine." He didn't look convinced, but had no choice but to follow me down the dark path.
We got half way down the alleyway before we heard it. The loud bang that we had both been dreading as soon as we begin walking home. I looked to my left just in time to see James falling to the ground holding his stomach. I wanted to catch him, but all I could see was the blood.
I turned to face the shooter, and immediately wished I hadn't. There was onnly one face that I had sworn to myself that I would never think about again, and that was my cousin, Sean. He was a prick, and was always getting into trouble with the law. He had been shunned out of the family after he was first arrested for beating up a girl on her way home from school.
Sean's shaky, drunken hands dropped the gun as he began to turn and run off. James was going to die soon if I didn't do something quick. So I did the only logical thing. I picked up the gun, and pulled the trigger.
They didn't give me any grieving time before sending me off to Litchfield. I knew that, at some point, I would probably collapse in a flood of tears when everything finally suck in.
As a police officer led me to my new bunk room, I had the chance to sneak a look at some of the inmates. To my surprise, not all of them looked like they'd just completed genocide. In fact, most looked quite friendly. Once we made it to my new room, I was introduced my roommates for the foreseeable future. The first, Nikki, had big, notty, dirty blonde hair, and was sporting a sexy smirk as she shook my hand. The second, Alex, had very dark hair and amazing, blue eyes. Then finally, Delilah. As soon as I looked into her gorgeous, green eyes I couldn't look away. I felt an immense pull towards her.
"Finally, someone my age." Delilah exclaimed, grinning at me. I smiled back, blushing slightly.
"Well then I guess I'll leave you ladies to it." Officer Bennett, I found out his name was, said awkwardly as he left the room.
"Great, well Junior, this is your bed." Nikki said, pointing to the bunk beneath hers.
"Junior?" I raised my eyebrows in confusion.
"Oh, we can't call you Lucy, that's way too girly, and since your badge doesn't have your last name on it, I'm going with Junior."
