After our holiday I had a week off from work to fully focus and work on my school work. I had also been looking into getting into contact with child services and possibly finding out about Molly.

I was on the phone with one of my best friends Taylor, where there was a knock at the door.

"Hang on Tay." I told her as I made my way to the door as sat as I could. Whoever it was, was bound to be getting drenched, it was tipping it down with rain.

As I pulled the door open and saw who it was I gasped and nearly dropped my phone.

"Tay, I'm going to have to call you back." I told her through the phone and then I hung up and put my phone in my pocket.

"Can I help you?"

"Gabriella Montez?"

"Yes."

"I'm Officer Daniels and this is Officer Johnson, can we come in and have a word?"

"Of course yes, come in." I then led them into the house and shut the door behind them. I led them into the living room.

"Take a seat. Can I get you a drink?" I asked.

"No thank you." Officer Johnson told me.

"Miss Montez, does a Mr Troy Bolton live here as well?" Officer Daniels asked.

"Yes he does, he's my boyfriend."

"Could you call him and ask him to come home, we'd like a word with his as well."

"Of course." I then got my cell out my pocket and quickly dialled Troy, who luckily answered after the first ring.

"Baby is everything ok?" He asked as he answered.
"Troy you need to come home."
"Why? What's the problem?"
"The police are here Troy and they want to talk to us."
"Oh, ok, I'll be straight there. I'm getting into my car."
"Ok Troy, hurry."

I then hung up and faced the two gentlemen.

"He's on his way."

"Wonderful."

"Can I asked what this is about?" I asked them.

"We'll discuss this once Mr Bolton is here."

We sat in an awkward silence until Troy walked in and disturbed it.

"Babe? What's going on?" He asked as he saw me first and then his eyes followed mine to find the officers.

"Officers. What's going on?" Troy asked us.

"Take a seat Mr Bolton, while we ask you two a couple questions." Officer Daniels told him and Troy then sat down beside me.

"Right, do either of you know a Ms Jenni Alexson?" Daniels asked us and I looked at Troy.

"Um yes, she's the mother of the girl I nanny." I told him and he nodded as he wrote it down.

"So you obviously know Molly Alexson. Now how is she? Is she a good kid for you Miss Montez?" He asked.

"Yeah, she's wonderful, she's really well behaved." I told him with a smile on my face.

"Ok, how about you Mr Bolton? Do you know little Molly?" Officer Johnson asked him.

"Yes, I look after her when she stays the night and Gabriella is catching up on school work." He told them and the officers then looked at each other and then at me

"Miss Montez, do you sit in the room when Mr Bolton is left with Molly? Or are you somewhere else?" Johnson asked me.

"I'm normally at the library or in another room yes, why?"

"Have you ever witnessed Mr Bolton acting angry around Molly?" Johnson continued to question me.

"No, only if she has seriously misbehaved, like you would with any child."

The officers then got up and showed me and picture and it was of Molly and bruises on her arms and I gasped at the sight.

"What happened to her?" I asked them.

"According to Ms Alexson, her daughter was dropped of home with these all over her arms and after getting checked out they are from abuse. Little Molly is scared to talk to us but she told her mother that a boy who looked after her shouted and hit her." Daniels explained and then he faced Troy.

"And he fits your description Mr Bolton, I'm afraid we're going to have to take you down the station for questioning." Johnson then got up and put Troy into handcuffs.

"This is ridiculous, Troy would never harm a child." I told them as they started to lead him away.

"Gabi don't worry, I haven't done anything this is a misunderstanding." Troy tried to reassure me.

"Mr Bolton, it would be better for you if you didn't say anything." Daniels told him as they led him outside and I started to cry as I followed them.

"Please, he hasn't done anything." I begged them.

"I'm sorry Miss Montez, we have to do our job for the sake of the child." Johnson told me.

Once Troy was in the cop car they drove him away and I ran back inside to get my stuff and then drive to the police station.

This has to be a mistake Troy wouldn't harm anyone let alone a little girl.

Sorry it's short but it's really a filler chapter. HannahLR09
