CHAPTER 12

I waited in the front office of the Las Angeles jail along with Beck. We sat on a hard bench waiting to be called into the room. Beck was taken into the room first, and when he came out, his handcuffs had been removed and he walked out. What the fuck? They just let him go?

"Jade, come with me." Tori's dad lead me into the room. "What were you doing with this?" I told him about what Beck has done and that I grabbed it out of his pocket at Tori's house. "There's no proof here Jade. You were holding the powder, you will be charged for a misdemeanor since it was less than 20 oz. You're bail is $100, please come to court on May 26th." He opened the door to let me go, but I didn't move. "Um, Jade you can leave now."

"So, you just let Beck go?" I yelled.

"No, he will go to court as well."

"That's it? He could've killed my fucking girlfriend!" I yelled in rage. Two men came in and escorted me out as I kicked and screamed.


It was May 26th, and I drove with Cat and Tori to my court appearance. Before I walked into the court room, my lawyer came to talk to me. "Now Jade, you may end up being charged a fine for possession. The severity of drug possession penalties depends on quantity, type of drug, intent, age of the offender, and location of the crime. Since you're underaged, and it was 10 ounces of cocaine, you may be charged a large amount of money. Cocaine is a serious drug to be caught with and the penalties are more severe than possession of marijuana and other drugs. However, there is no intent and no crime to go along with the drugs. If we can prove you not guilty and show that it was Beck's bag, he would be thrown in jail for at least 5 years because he had the intent to threaten someone while using the drugs. You already got your drug test, and now Beck is inside getting his right now, and once they do that, court will begin. But if his tests turn out positive, they'll arrest him and you can go home." He explained a lot more to me before the called everyone to enter the court room.

I walked up to my stand and Cat and Tori sat behind me. My lawyer stood beside me as the Judge sat in front of us. After we all swore on the bible and everything was ready, my lawyer began to talk. "If you'll look at my client, you'll see a badass. You may think she causes a lot of trouble and has a record on her. However, her appearance does not reflect what is inside. Now, I've gotten to know my client this past week while disguising this situation, and let me assure you, she is not trouble. When she was caught with the cocaine, she was at Tori Vega's house, but Beck was there too. Shall we look at Beck's drug tests?" I didn't understand why they hadn't looked at the drug tests before hand. Maybe then we wouldn't even have to worry about doing this and they could arrest him right away.

"Very well. Are the drug tests ready?" The judge turned and asked an officer. He nodded and walked to a back room. A few minutes later, he came back with some papers. "Here you are your honor." The officer said as he handed the papers to the judge. She examined the tests for about 10 minutes and then began to speak again. "Jade West is not guilty. Her drug tests are clean, however Beck's are not. Now, Jade, I understand you're also suing for a death threat? Since there is no evidence that it is Beck, the best I can give is a restraining order."

Beck had to stay away from Cat, Tori, and I for 6 months, but in those six months, all I did was worry about what was going to happen after the six months was over...
