Chapter 13 ~ Justice and Lack of Clothing
Max woke up to bright sun in her eyes. She stretched and rolled over closer to Iggy. He groaned.
"Morning." she said sleepily. He just groaned. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. "We have to get up. It's my parents already left for their business trip. We have the whole house to ourselves." she said while playing with his hair. He rolled over and faced her. She smiled. "Get your butt up." Max got out of bed and stretched. She walked over to her TV And turned it on.
"What time is it?" Iggy asked.
"Ten. We slept pretty late." she said brushing her hair. "We can go into town if you want. It's boring in here." then something came on the news.
"A fire behind Brown street completely destroyed a house late last night. The house was deep in the forest making it hard for the fire department to reach it. Police have no idea how it started, but are investing. A man was in the house at the time, but had no injuries." the news reporter said. A picture of the man flashed on the screen and Max froze.
Oh shit. Iggy thought. Max turned to him.
"That's your father's house." she said. "Why do I have this awful feeling? Please tell me you had no part of this in anyway." she said and closed her eyes. Iggy got off the bed and walked over to her.
"Max he was going to hurt you." he whispered.
"Holy shit you did that!" she yelled.
"Shh! Max I-I was mad and I wasn't thinking. I just- I panicked!" he said.
"So you set his house on freaking fire!" Max exclaimed in terror. "Iggy! You can get arrested for this!" Max's head ached. This was bad, this was so bad.
"I know I just I freaked!" Iggy yelled. He screwed up. "I did it out of anger okay."
"But that's no reason to burn his house down!" she shouted over him.
"Max listen to me he threatened to kill you. Let's focus on that." Iggy said to her.
"W-What?" she whispered.
"He said accidents happen all the time, like my mom's accident. So her 'accident' was her death. I had to stop him." Iggy said softly. Max sat down on the bed.
"What are we going to do?" she whispered. Iggy sat next to her. "I mean us Iggy. Not you. I'm serious this time."
"I know. I know. I'm sorry. I just wanted to protect you." he said played with her hair. "Do you forgive me?" she nodded.
"Yes. I can't stay mad at you. Especially when you're, you know shirtless." she smiled at him only in his boxers.
"Oh crap." he said and searched for some clothes.
"It's not a bad thing." she said, staring at his lightly toned abs.
"Stop staring!" he shouted and threw a shirt at her. The doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" Max yelled and ran down stairs. She unlocked the door and opened it up to see two police officers. "Uh hello." she answered nervously.
"Hello miss. Are you Maxine Martinez?" he asked.
"Yes I am." she said holding onto the door.
"Well we were told-" he looked down at a paper. "Iggy Griffiths was currently staying with you." she nodded.
"Yeah he's um upstairs. Is everything already sir?" she asked. She was scared that they wanted to arrest him for the fire.
"His father is downtown at our station. He's being arrested." he said.
"What!" Max yelled.
"We have been searching for him for a awhile now. He owes some people money. And he hasn't been sending his son to school so he's in trouble for that." the officer said.
"What about his mom?" Max asked, the realized what she said.
"Excuse me?" he asked.
"Oh well um, I'm sure Iggy can tell you about that." she said.
"Well we have some to tell you about his court date. You two may attend and speak on his or your behalf." the officer said.
"Oh okay. We'll be there." Max said.
"It's this coming Friday." he said. "Well good day miss." he said and walked away. She closed the door.
"Iggy!" she screamed and he came running down.
"Should I be worried?" he asked buttoning his shirt.
"Your father's getting arrested!" she exclaimed.
"What! Really? Do they know what he did to my mom?" he asked sounding happy.
"No, but we're going to his court day and you can tell them what he did!" she said.
"Do you think they'll believe me?" he asked.
"Of course! How can they not! Iggy he's finally getting what he deserves!" she said and hugged him. He kissed her head.
"I know. Finally." he said relieved. He looked at Max and laughed. "Um were those police officers giving you strange looks?" he asked smirking.
"Yeah they kinda were?" she said. "It was weird." Iggy laughed.
"Max you might want to put some pants on." he whispered to her. She looked down at her pink glittery panties.
"Shit!" she yelled and ran up to her room.
This was a cute one I think. Both sleep in their underwear. That actually happened to me once. I totally forgot I had no pants on and someone was at the door and I answered it. I think I scarred that UPS lady for life. TMI right? Back to what I was saying, sorry if this isn't realistic I'm trying! I've never been arrested before so I don't know how that works!
