Chapter 11: Police Station
Austin's POV:
Are you ready? I asked Ally as she stared nervously at the door of the police station. She shifted uncomfortably as she leaned against my arm.
She nodded her head "Will you hold my hand?" She asked with the cutest voice ever looking up at me.
"Of course." I smiled intertwining our hands.
I lead her into the police building slowly; knowing we were both doing the right thing. As embarrassing as it was for me, and scary for her, it needed to be done. I know she'll be there for me throughout the process, and I'll be there for her. Were a team.
We walked into the building and saw aloft of busy people making their way around the hectic building. I walked Ally and I over to the front desk.
"Hi, excuse me. We're here to report a crime."
"Both of you?" The dark haired woman asked as she typed rapidly on her keyboard.
"Yes."
"What are the charges?"
"Assault and battery, and Sexual assault" I said quickly.
Ally glared at me.
"I looked the charges up online" I whispered in her ear.
The officer glared between the both of us; looking somewhat shocked by our testimonies.
"We were in different situations" I said quickly not wanting the women to get any ideas. I would never hurt Ally. You don't hurt the people you love.
The women nodded then wrote and something down on a blank yellow note pad.
"Alright, what are your names?"
"Austin Moon."
"Ally Dawson."
"Moon... " She repeated quietly to herself.
"Cc-can you repeat that sir?" She stuttered suddenly very much interested in my name. Her face focused on me waiting for my reply.
"Austin Moon" I repeated slowly and suspiciously.
"Okay, I'll send an officer over to talk to you guys soon." She yanked her head down and began writing frantically on her notepad. "You two can have a seat over there." She said pointing to the waiting room.
"Thanks" I said.
She nodded and continued with her panic-stricken task.
Ally and I took our seats in the semi-vacant waiting room. We chose two seats near the back of the room. Ally looked relieved as she rested her shoulders on the blue diamond printed seats.
"See Ally, you had nothing to worry about. You're the smartest girl I know. Any plan of yours, is bound to succeed. Well..Most plans." I finished placing a soft kiss on her cheek.
She smiled tightly realizing my reference to her last suggestion that ended badly. She released a small chuckle settling her arms on the arms rests.
"I'm just glad you're here with me." She let out a sigh.
"And I'm glad you're with me" I replied pecking her lips.
"Are you going to kiss me every second" Ally laughed as she drew her lips from mine.
"Yes, because I loooove kissing you" I smiled as I connected our lips once more.
"And I looooove your kisses" She chuckled between each kiss.
Our heads whipped to the right as we saw three men dressed in dark blue; decorated with gold badges heading towards us. They walked with such urgency and purpose.
They must have somewhere very important to be.
"What kind of questions do you think they'll ask us?" Ally asked.
"Probably questions like-"
"Excuse me sir. Austin Moon is it?" A large man dressed in the dark blue police uniform interrupted me.
"Yes."
"Can you stand up for me?"
I rose from my seat as the officer had instructed intimidated by his size.
"Austin Moon, you are under arrest for assault and battery" The man cuffed my wrists while reciting to me my miranda rights; making my eyes widen in alarm.
"What!" I yelled in utter confusion and fear.
"Officer, there must be some mistake. We've come here to report a crime. Austin hasn't done anything wrong." Ally reasoned with the cop.
"Little miss, this boy has done a lot wrong. There was a report delivered two days ago about a young man of the name Austin Moon who assaulted a girl named Janey Rivers. There was a notice delivered to his house yesterday. He was supposed to have already been arrested."
"No no no! You've got it all wrong! She assaulted me!" I yelled as the large man dragged me carelessly through the police station down the halls.
"Sure, tell that to the judge. When you see him tomorrow"
"Ally! Call my mom!" I yelled before I was stuffed in a small room.
Ally's POV:
Oh no! This is terrible. Austin can't go to jail, it wasn't even his fault. I don't know for sure who gave that report, but I have a pretty good theory. I'm pretty sure it was Janey. And I hope for everyone's sake that I'm wrong.
Because of Janey, everyone at school hates Austin. Everyday we would sit in the back of every classroom just to avoid disturbing comments, shoving of books and slamming of backpacks. Lunch is no better. As soon as we would get our lunch, we would rush to his car to eat in peace; after we cleaned the garbage off first. I regretted every second I couldn't be with him, because when I wasn't with him, things would get worse. The bullying would get physical. Nobody seemed to even come close to touching him when I was around, but they were all over him the second I left. He would call me after school saying he got jumped again by the wrestling team or the football team or any other sports team in this school. This was all while he was on his crutches.
Austin would call me late at night crying about how life was overwhelming and pleading for my help. I suggested we talk to the principle, but just like I was afraid of, he's as cricked and messed up as his son. The principle refused to listen to any report that involved his son doing something wrong. He was in complete denial. And because of that. Austin was suffering.
What lie could Janey have told to cause everyone at school to despise him? He is the nicest, sweetest guy I've ever known.
His dad kicked him out of the house for loving me, and now he was about to go to jail for something she did. To him.
I was going to get to the bottom of all this.
