And after countless hours of standing in front of his friends and family pleading his innocence a video was brought forword of Thayer at a gas station at the time of the murder. Thayer then left Emma, Sutton, Laurel and Mads and left for California his anger with him. 6 months pasted and Thayer was back in town...

Thayers POV

My palms were sweating. I was so nervous I could barely sit up straight. Whats she going to think? Was she going to hate me? Interrupting my thought I saw my sister quickly walking threw the familiar set wooden doors. She looked around until I caught her sparkling eyes. She smiled and came running towards me. She quickly wrapped her arms around mine and hugged me as if she hadn't seen me in years. She let go.

"I missed you."

I couldn't help but smile. Someone actually missed my presence.

"Well things have gotten crazy around here." She said as if anything had actually changed.

"Aren't they always?" I said.

She looked at me and shrugged.

"Listen..." I had suddenly forgotten everything that I had meant to say even though I had rehearsed it all in my head a thousand times.

"Well I... I just wanted to say that I'm really sorry for everything that I put you through. It was selfish and i'm really sorry. I'm better now I promise." Saying it out loud was a lot harder than I thought. I had to admit that I had a problem and that was something I didn't feel conformable doing.

She suddenly looked sad. "I never thought you did it. "

"Yeah well everyone else did." I let out a deep breath.

"Have you talked to Emma?" She suddenly blurted out.

I paused. I had forgotten about Emma. I know it sounds dumb but I was so worried about Mads I didn't even think about having to face Emma.

"No. I can't...talk to her I can't, I just can't." I put my hands on the back of my head and slid back into my chair.

Mads with both eyes on my slipped into a chair right across from me.

"She'll forgive you ya know. Just apologize. Emma's a very forgiving person." She looked as though a million thoughts were going through her mind. I couldn't read her.

I let out another deep breath. (I was told to do that whenever I felt stress to my surprise it actually works!)

"You don't get it Mads I hurt her! I did things that..." I put my hands over my face. "Lets not talk about Emma." I looked up at her. "Hows school?" I continued.

"Seriously?" She gave my a dramatic look.

I chuckled. "Fine."

"So whats the weather like in California?" She asked reaching over and taking my glass of water.

"Its beautiful! You need to come over sometime. You'd love surfing." I really hope she would come over.

We then talked for a few hours until finally I left and went back to my hotel and Mads went back home. She actually had a place where she belonged.
