Hanna
Aria, Spencer, and I take a seat on the Prosecution side. I look around and it's packed mostly on the Defense side.
"I haven't seen so many cops, since the move Police Academy" I whisper to Spencer, who moves over irritated.
I smell my breath it smells minty why would she move away from me? I turn to my right to Aria.
"Do you think Em is going to win, she seemed different yesterday"
"Yes, I did sense something off, from her, but it could just be the case in general" she says
I start tapping my feet, because I'm so nervous. I want Em to win this case badly, then we all can celebrate and move past all this.
The door opens and I see Paige wearing a grey pants suite which compliments her hips. I know Em is going to have a hard time concentrating with Paige wearing that.
"There is Paige" I whisper to Aria which she nods looking her up and down.
"She's pretty" Aria says taking out a piece of gum. I turn to Spencer and whisper
"That's Paige, Emily's soon to be future wife, she's over there"
"I'M WELL AWARE WHO SHE IS HANNA, SHE'S SITTING ON THE DEFENSE SIDE AT THE ATTORNEY'S DESK"
I slide down my seat "Damn Spencer you don't have to be rude"
"Relax Hanna, Spencer is just stressed" Aria reassures me which gets a glare from Spencer
"I'm not stressed, I just don't want Hanna's commentary, especially with us being close to Emily soon, that will stress her out"
"Everything stresses her out, she's freaking Emily Fields!" Paige and some police officers stare at me at talking so loud and I wave a Paige with a smile.
Emily told me they made up yesterday when she spoke with the judge. Paige looks around and awkwardly waves back.
"She looks confused" Spencer says
"Stop reading people's body language" Aria tease
"I just want to see what attracts Emily to Paige"
"It's her ass clearly"
"HANNA!"
"What, I'm being honest, look at it"
Spencer and Aria make a short glance "I mean Hanna does have a point" Aria says laughing
"Hmm I seen bigger" Aria and I both look at her in shocked
Spencer then panics "I'm a doctor, I see butts almost everyday!"
Paige
I'm putting my papers in order trying to get over why Hanna just waved at me. Was it a shady wave like, she knows that I went to Rosewood, or genuine. I'm sure Emily told her friends about my visit.
Calm down Paige, today is a big day all of New York City is rooting for you. The Mayor is rooting for you, heck I'm rooting for me.
I take a sip of water, when someone pats my back. "Hey Buddy, just wanted to wish you good luck" I turn around to the familiar voice
"Thanks Sean" I give him a hug
"When Emily gets here, I'm going to wish her luck too, but to let you know I'm not picking sides" he tease
"Me either" Shana says giving me a hug also
"Are you staying?" I ask surprised she came in without me noticing
She shakes her head "Sadly no, I have a court case of my own, minor not as big as this, but if I get out in time I might come in"
"I'm staying the whole time, I love drama" Sean tease
"There is no drama though" I say
"Ohhh please, I could smell the drama ever since my New Years party" I roll my eyes as he takes a seat on my side of the room.
Garret walk in and he looks nervous he makes his way towards me and I give him a warm smile.
"How are you doing?" I ask as I pull out a seat beside me
"Anxious" I rub his back
"Relax, remember what we went over" He nods
"I know I know" he says forming a smile
"That's my champ"
Hanna
"Why is she rubbing his back like a dog?" I ask
"I don't know, I'm wondering where Emily is" Aria says looking around as more people walk into the courtroom.
"I agree, she should have been in here already" Spencer says
"What if she's looking for Ali?" I ask
Spencer and Aria both glare " We all were wondering, it's expected for Ali to be late for her own court case!"
"Let's not think negative, Emily probably giving herself a prep talk in the bathroom or something"
Emily
"Awww Em"
I hunch over the toilet again throwing up everything but my soul.
"I'm going to get some paper towels" Ali says putting my hair in a bun
I get up from my knee and Ali hands me the towels and I wipe my mouth.
"Does this always happen before a case?" she asks I head toward the mirror
"Not usually, this only happened once" I run some water and try to wipe my face more.
"When was the the other time?"
I laugh to myself, thinking about such an embarrassing moment.
"When I had my first case, and the worst part is, it was in traffic court"
We both laugh I pull out some mints from my purse and pop a few.
I turn to face Ali "How do I look?"
"Hmm, for someone who just threw up pretty good"
"Why thank you sir" Ali hits my shoulder
"Hey, you know if I was throwing up, you would be attacking me with questions"
"Like what?"
"I don't know, you would probably ask me, if I was pregnant….wait are your pregnant Emily?"
"Shut Up!"
We walk out of the bathroom and the moment we step out there are people flooding the halls trying to get into the courtroom.
"I didn't know it was going to be this packed" Ali says while we walk
"Well when you're suing the NYPD, expect a parade"
"But it's not, Thanksgiving" she tease
I didn't tell any of my friends, Paige went to Rosewood or that there is apparently a witness she brought from there. I didn't want them to worry.
Yesturday
"Okay, Paige I see that you added another witness" Judge Montgomery says
I look over at Paige who doesn't look at me still.
"Yes, your Honor I did last minute"
Judge Montgomery reads over the paper "Why does it say Jane Doe?"
"You see your Honor, my witness prefers to be anonymous until the trial"
"Mccullers, that's ridiculous I need a name"
"I agree your Honor, how am I suppose to prep when I don't know the witness?" I ask surprised about this new information.
"How are you suppose to prep, when you don't know their testimony or my questions yet?" Paige asks
"She's right Fields" the judge says
"Well your Honor, this is our case"
"As of mines" Paige says
"Fields could you step out, for a second so Paige can tell me about her witness in private"
I don't know whether I want to debate or get up. I think getting up would be the smart choice.
Present
Ali and I walk into the courtroom and the conversations quiet down and they all watch us head to the front.
I see the girls and they all smile. Spencer has a concerned look on her face, I think she notices I'm not looking so well.
"Just take a seat" I tell Ali while I take out my folder and put everything in order.
"Psssh"
"Pssshh" I turn around and see Hanna waving
"I see you Hanna" she smiles while Spencer glares at her.
Sean makes his way over to me and pulls me into a hug.
"Wanted to wish you a good luck, I already gave Paige hers"
"Playing sides" I tease he laughs
"Not at all, but I am sitting on defense, only because I wanted an end seat" he kisses my cheek
"Break a leg"
"Ooohhh he's hot" Ali says
"Please, don't date my friend"
"Who said date, I'm thinking more of a one night…." I shush Ali as the bailiff walks in
"ALL RISE"
We all stand and I use that time to look over at Paige who pushes a stand of hair behind her ear. She doesn't look nervous.
The judge approaches the stand and holds her hand up and we all sit back down.
Expect me I approach the bench the judge looks over at Paige who sits down. Everyone knows you're suppose to approach the bench before a trial. I guess she's not so ready after all.
Paige eyes goes wide and hops up.
"I'm so sorry your Honor, was just testing the chairs" of couple jury members and people in the courtroom laugh.
Of course she would crack a joke, just to win over some jury members. The jury is very diverse a few young, old, men, woman, and so on.
Paige finally approaches the bench
"I want to say that I want you to keep your questions on track and good luck to both of you"
"Thank you" we both say at the same time
Paige offers her hand "Good look Emily"
I stare at it, everyone is watching so I shake it. I feel her thumb trace my hand. Something I didn't expect,and I feel a sensation in my hand. she's the first to pull away and we head back to our seat.
I'm the first one up so I get ready. The judge begins to speak
"May prosecution call their first witness" I stand up
"Your Honor we call Police Officer Garrett Reynolds"
Paige
I knew Emily was going to call him up first. Garrett gets up and stand in front of the seat.
"Mr. Reyfords do you solemnly affirm that the evidence that you shall give, shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth."
"Yes"
Garret sits down and the courtroom door opens and I turn around and see Toby and Sydney quietly taking a seat in the back. I roll my eye at them being so loud but a little proud they came.
Emily approach the bench in front of him. Let's see how she does her so called magic.
"Hello Officer" Emily says in a booming voice
"You can call me Garrett"
"Thank you for giving me permission" Emily tease while looking at the jury with a smile
Garrett shrugs
"Do you love your job?"
"Of course, I always wanted to be a police officer"
"Why?"
"I enjoy protecting, serving, and helping people out"
Emily nods and walks around
"Thank you for the background, now for the questions regrading why you're sitting here today"
Garrett coughs which he does when he's nervous
"Where were you November 4, 2015 around 5pm?"
Garrett looks around "I was on duty"
"Do you remember where?"
"Not really, that was months ago"
"Let me re frame, what day did you purposely harass my client?"
I get up to object
"Sustain your honor" Emily says before I get a chance
Can't believe she just did that! My blood starts to boil Garrett looks even more confused
"I didn't harass her, she was drunk how would she know?" Garrett says
Emily turns around facing Garrett "So you admit to harassing my client"
"No"
"Then how do you know, she was drunk"
"A call came in while I was patrolling talking about a woman harassing shoppers at a mall"
"Which mall?"
"Eastside River Plaza"
"Wait that's in uptown New York"
"Duhhh"
Emily laughs " Why is a New York City cop in uptown New York?" the room erupts with conversations
Emily scratches her head while the bailff tries to calm down the courtroom.
"It wasn't like that"
"Then tell me how was it like, were you just in the area?" Garrett looks at me and Emily steps in front of him
"I'm sorry I'm over here, Officer"
Garrett turns away " I was in the mall getting my Mother a birthday present that's why"
I scribble something on my notepad biting my tongue. I told Garrett not to lie and he's lying. Now I have to find a way to get him out of his lie.
"How sweet of you, your Mother must have expensive taste, but you said you were patrolling, and got a call how is that possible when you were in the mall?"
I look at the jury and they all have blank expressions
"I was in the right place at the right time I guess" he says calmly
"This is confusing, can you help me out here, you're telling me you were patrolling and getting your Mother's gift in Uptown New York which isn't in your district and got a call about…?"
"The drunk girl" Garrett then points at Ali the room gasps and I bring my hand to my head
Emily smiles in disbelief
"So my client name is drunk girl, wow tell me what happened when you met drunk girl"
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to say that, it's just she was so nasty to me" he says coughing again
"How, did he call you drunk man?"
"No she called me an Ass hole when I asked her if she been drinking, I then asked her to do a test which she declined, so I charged her with public intoxication"
"So you never tested to see if she was drunk?"
"Her eyes were blood shot red she was clearly drunk"
"But how do you know, I can say I'm a lawyer, but am I really a lawyer if I didn't take a test, would you be a police officer if you didn't have to take a test,
the only test I know is, you were testing to see how far you were willing to take to attack my client and you clearly went out of your way, to got all the way to uptown New York to patrol which wasn't in your district.
Seem to me all you saw was some drunk girl, and today months after the incident you still see a drunk girl, a drunk girl you have no record of proven that she was drunk. That is all your honor.
Emily gets to her seat and Alison has a smile on her face.
The jury clearly was buying Emily's argument and I don't blame her. Garrett should have never lied about buying a gift, this is the point I'm trying to make! If he would have stepped with the story we wouldn't be in this mess. Which I'm about to clean up.
Emily
Alison pats my back "That was amazing Em"
"Thanks, I want to see her get out of this one" I turn around and the girls gives me thumbs up.
I take a sip of water and Paige rubs her hands on her pants.
"Hello Garrett" Paige says
I roll my eyes at such a basic introduction
"Hi" he says looking down
"I'm going to have to agree with Attorney Fields"
My head shots up why would she say that?
"Your story is a bit shaky, so let's revisit what you said. Basically what you were telling us, is you were patrolling"
Garrett stares at Paige. Wait they're communicating without words. I think I'm the only one noticing
Garrett nods
"Yes"
"But we all know that's not true" Paige says
What is she doing, she's clearly proving my point!
"You took the car without, the NYPD permission"
Garret nods raising an eyebrow "Yes"
"Okay it start to make more sense, you taking the NYPD car to drive to uptown New York to get your mother a gift, why might an officer use the NYPD car instead of his or hers"
Garrett shrugs
"To be honest less traffic"
Paige smiles
"Less traffic I can take that, now that we got that out of the way, tell me how you heard about the call referring to Ms. Dilaurentis?"
"I got a call"
Paige puts her hand in the air and brings it to her ear
"From your cellphone, or was it the NYPD cellphone, we already know you took their car"
Garret and some jury members laugh I even hear Hanna I turn around and her face drops
"I got the call on my walkie talkie/radio we can pick up information depending on the location"
Shit I forgot about that.
Paige gasps "May I hold it?"
"Sure" Garrett hands it to Paige and she looks at it
"I thought, you could only get calls in the car" Paige looks at me and I find myself almost breaking the pencil
"Nope, we have a radio/walkie on at all time, and it allows us to get calls in the area, that's how I got the call about Ms. Dilaurentis"
"So you got the call and approached the matter like it was a situation in the New York City?" Paige asks
"Yes, that's what I did"
"To think about it, you were putting your life at risk doing your job! Prosecution made it seem like it was a bad thing you did your job. Turning it around on you like how dare you approach
an intoxicated woman harassing shoppers. That's like telling a fire truck they can't put out a fire because that truck isnt from the local station.
To think about it if you didn't approach Ms. Dilaurentis, who knows what she could have done. She could have drove and injured others or even herself.
Sounds like you were just doing your job, which was protect and serve and she was doing her duty which was... doing whatever she felt like doing"
I stand up "I object your.."
"I'm done" Paige says with a wink
Paige gets to her seat and some police officers high five her with smiles.
"She's good" I hear Spencer whisper
Paige
I sit down and I can breath again. Garrett sits beside me "Great job" I glare at him
"Don't you ever do that again to me. You nearly cost us the case"
"Relax, I watched the jury they loved you"
"I don't know, prosecution had some good points, and we still had some loop holes in our story"
I take another sip of water and I feel like there are eyes starring at me. I turn around and it's Hanna who looks at me with wide eyes.
What does she want from me!
Emily stands up again and I bet she's going to call Ali up.
"Your Honor, I would like to call Detective Wilden to the stands"
I smile and shake my head, such a foolish move. Having Alison be her last witness to testify is foolish.
Wilden gets up and approaches the stands. I have no worry for him as long as he sticks to the plan.
He told me prior that someone hacked into his laptop and got information. My guess it was someone on prosecution, either way. I doubt Emily is going to bring that to the court attention, If she doesn't want to face future charges.
Wilden takes the oath then sits down.
"How do you know my client Detective?" Emily asks
Wilden has a smug look on his face "No Hello first?"
"We know each other too well, to do greetings" Emily says
"Of course, I remember you since you were in high school, now you're a big time lawyer, Rosewood is proud too bad you dont visit"
I notice Emily squeezes he eyes at the word Rosewood. I don't think anyone else notices.
"Yes, we are from the same town,…you know what, so is Ms. Dilaurentis, in fact my client and I went to the same high school..a high school you visited frequently"
Why is Emily saying that, it gives Wilden a lot of chances to turn it back around on her. Wait why do I care?
"Yes, you girls were quite the trouble makers" he says fixing his tie
"How long have you been working with Rosewood police?" Emily asks
"I thought I was answering my involvment with New York not Rosewood" he says annoyed
"Trust me, I'm getting there please answer the question, in fact you were the one who brought up Rosewood first not me"
Wilden rolls his eyes " 15 years"
"That's amazing, you made rank quickly I remember my parents and I went to your celebration party"
"Yes, your folks are great people, I'm sure they're dispappionted"
"Ouch that really hurt me"
Wilden had no right to say that to Emily. Garrett looks at me
"You're going to break the glass" he says I let go of my water
Wilden shrugs "The truth hurts"
"Okay then get ready to hear some truth, weren't you about to get promoted to Head of your department?"
Wilden looks away
"Detective am I correct? Emily asks
I check my files and I don't remember Wilden telling me that. That's a very honorable position and for his age to receive that would be great!
"I'm not answering that" Wilden says
"Answer Attoney Fields" Judge Montgermy says
Wilden nods
"Yes, I was offered that postion"
"Why didn't you take it?" Emily asks
Even I want to know why he didn't take it
He doesn't say anything
"Was it because you couldn't do your job well?"
"NO!"
"Was it because you were taking the police's car for personal trips?"
"No"
"Was it because you couldn't solve a case, involving my client, a case so critical for your career that Department Head would be yours, something you wanted so badly"
"IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I COULDN'T SOLVE THAT CASE, ALISON DISSAPPERANCE CAUSED A SCARE TO THE WHOLE TOWN, WHAT KIND OF GIRL PRETENDS SHE IS DEAD, TO GET ATTENTION, YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MANY BODY I WATCHED BEING BURIED DUE TO HER, IF ANYTHING WE SHOULD BE CHARGING HER!"
The courtroom gets quiet and Wilden face is red and I look at Alison and she's looking to the side.
"But you did get a chance to charge her, am I correct?"
Wilden catches his breath "Yes"
"Did they find her guilty or not"
"Neither"
"What do you mean, there had to be one?"
"It was a mistrial due to evidence being tampered with"
"Okay so that's the reason why you came to New York, to go after the trouble maker in high school who costed you your job and made you a laughing stock of the town"
Wilden stands up
"I'M NOT A LAUGING STOCK, I CLEANED UP ALL THE MESS SHE LEFT BEHIND, SHE RUINS LIVES TO TRY AND GET WHAT SHE WANTS, LIKE SHE'S DOING NOW, SHE'S A SELFISH BRAT, THINKING SHE CAN SUE THE NYPD"
I look over at Alison and she doesn't even flinch at the words my client is yelling at her
"I can tell this is a sensitive topic for you"
He nods
"If this trouble making, life ruiner, and selfish brat caused you all this pain, why come to New York. It couldnt be, because you wanted her to go down for something could"?
Emily heads to her seat and I get up. I have two clients who had outburst and right now things arent looking too good.
Emily
"Are you okay?" I ask Ali while sitting down
"Yep, just enjoying the lovely words towards me, I'm just glad Wilden is the only one from Rosewood testifying" she says
I bite my tongue
Paige approaches the stand and you would think after my last statement she would look nervous but she doesn't.
"Why did you come to Rosewood, I'm sorry that Prosecution didn't give you a chance to answer" Paige looks over at me.
"To be with my now wife" Wilden says with a smile
"Awww is she here today?"
"Yes, she's the beatiuful woman in the back" he says while waving and a woman blushing ducks
"That's sweet, do you have kids?"
"No, but hopefully soon"
"Why wait?"
What is Paige doing, asking personal question that has nothing to do with the case.
"I'm nervous, being a detective you see a lot of sad and cruel things, and I'm not sure I want to bring a life into this crazy world yet"
"Can you tell me something you remember back in Rosewood that affected your judgement"
"There is just so many, but taking of the nature of the case I will suggest something involving "
I stand up "I object your Honor"
"On what grounds?" the judge says
"The relevance, he doesn't have to speak about my client, Defense asked a question in general once again he singled out my client "
"That's an opinion, Fields I don't think you know the difference taking in fact, your questions were all opionon based" Paige says to me
"That's so not true, Mccullers I have been doing this longer than you!"
"Clearly not, if you're causing a scene wasting my client's time and the jury with your outbursts"
"Like your clients, when they called my client names several times, maybe you should worry about that!"
The Judge bangs her gavel "Enough the both of you"
I'm heated Paige then turns to the judge
"Your Honor, may I contuine?"
"Yes, and Attorney Fields another outburst like that I might hold you in contempt of court"
My mouth opens and Alison pulls me down because I have some words for her.
"Emily, please sit down you proved your point" Ali says I'm heated
Hanna
"I can't belive Emily just did that" Aria whispers
"I know, Its so not like her" Spencer says I get excited
"I could just sense the sexual tension between them"
I feel eyes on me from Aria and Spencer but I don't care I'm being honest.
Both of them have solid points and from the look on the jury they look engaged but then again I'm dont do well reading people. This trial is better than any tv show I ever watched. Maybe I should have did jury duty after all.
Paige clears her throat.
"Please continue Wilden" he nods
"The worst case I saw was, of couple of years ago" I roll my eyes clearly it was years ago we arent still living in Rosewood!
"I got a call telling me there was a fire from a house on Rosewood drive involving a teenage girl"
My heart nearly stops "Do you think he's talking about?"
Aria shushes me and nods watching Widen speak
"Tell us about the scene" Paige says
"It was terrible, the fire ruined the girl's home and everything"
"Spencer why is he telling this story?"
"I don't know, shut up Hanna!" Spencer has the worried expression on her face also. We all know what happens, if anything we all could be underfire after this case. I remember that terrible day.
(Hanna's flashback)
"I can't stand that bitch Jenna, she kissed my boyfriend" Ailson says while pacing her bedroom floor.
These past few weeks she been acting strange. Almost paranoid lashing out at us for no reason.
"Hanna are you really going to eat that cookie?" I slowly put it down
"You can eat the cookie Hanna, you been working out all of this week, you need to treat yourself" Spencer says
"Wow Spencer, you want her to be fat, some friend you're"
"Hey don't call her fat, I loved Hanna before and after she been working out, if anything you arent being a good friend"
Alison looks in the window "Look at her dancing in her room, I heard she has this expensive carpet all the way from Russia"
"Who?" Aria asks while getting up
"Jenna, she thinks she's so cute, boyfriend stealing"
"I don't even think the rumors are true" I say
Alison glares at me"What do you know?" I shrug
"I'm just saying I knew her since middle school and she's kinda nice and a good artist"
"I agree with Hanna" Aria says
"What if, your boyfriend kissed her if they even did kiss?" Spencer asks
"Ugh you all are a bunch of sell outs, I did nothing but help you"
"Spencer who was it, that got you the answers to that exam you had to pass?"
"Aria who was it, that found you a cabin so you and Mr. Fitz could have a special night?"
"And Hanna…who was it that helped you lose all that weight?"
"Umm me?"
"Oh please, if it wasn't for my motivation, you would be eating by the minute "
"Alison if anything you're the bitch" I say
Ali turns around
"What did you call me" I get up and balled my fist and get in her face and for the first time I see fear in Ali's eye
"I'm tired of you talking to us like shit, Ali we're your friends" Aria steps between us and ALision laughs
"Courage I admire that Hanna, too bad your bff Emily couldn't see it"
"Sit with me Hanna" Aria says
"Emily's the only loyal one out of you all if she wasn't at swim practice, I bet she would be on my side"
"We're on your side Ali" Spencer says
"Then I need you all to prove it"
"How?" Aria asks
"Why are we out here, it's late" I whine
" Ali what's going on?"
We stand behind some bushes "Just watch, Spencer remember the formula you told me that caused could cause a volcano?"
"Umm baking soda and vinegar isnt, a formula but I guess" Spencer says
"Well lets just say, you're about to see something erupt"
"What do you mean?" Aria asks
"I made a volcano on her carpet, so when it erupts it's going to ruin her Russian carpet"
Spencer rolls her eyes "Dont you think that was too the extreme and childish, wait how is going to react without you being inside mixing it ? "
My feet is killing me so I sit on the ground and the moment I sit down. I hear a loud boom and a scream.
Everyone hits the ground.
"What happened" Spencer stands up
"The house is on fire someone call 911" Spencer orders
"We left our phone in the house" I say
Aria steps over the bushes "We need to help her" but Ali grabs her arm
"No, we can't we're going get in trouble"
"What did you put in the volcano, Alison!"
"This wasn't suppose to happen" Ali says
"What are you talking about, someone could be dying in there due to you" Spencer says while covering her mouth from the smoke
"No, I'm not going down for this, I have dirt on all of you, so what I say goes we need to leave, before the police gets here"
"No she needs our help" I say
"Then who's going to help us, when we go to jail I said LETS GO!"
We all turn around and head to Ali's house as we hear police sirens. I take one last look at the burning house. I hope she makes it out okay.
What did we just do?
End of flash back
I'm glad Emily was at home and wasn't a part of the fire because that would break her.
Paige nods
"Did anyone get hurt?"paige asks
"Sadly yes, a girl named Jenna"
"Did she die?"
"No she was blinded by the explosion, that girl caused" Wilden points at Alison and I'm waiting for Emily to object but she doesn't show any emotions
""till this day, I don't know how she made it out alive, not being able to see but still finding her way out"
I still wonder that also the explosion happened in her room, how did she get to the first floor?
Emily
I don't know what to do now I know who Paige is bringing to testify now. The moment Wilden brought up the fire I knew Who he was referring to and I know Ali knew also.
Out of all people the last person I thought was going to testify was Jenna.
"I guess we will have to ask her…can someone please bring in Jenna Marshall"
The room gasps as the door opens and Jenna walks in but what also catches my attention is Mona helping her. I should have known Mona would be apart of it.
Mona and I make eye contact and she looks into my soul while she helps Jenna ,walking with her cane. As Jenna approaches the stand she trips and Mona catches her.
"I'm sorry" Jenna says lowly
"It's okay take your time" The judge says with soft eyes
I look at Paige and she looks at me so this is what she knows.
The judge asks to see Paige and I
I approach the stand
"Now I took in consideration, that Fields didn't know who the the witness was , so I would allow you to call a recess to collect your thoughts after Mccullers come examines her witness, do you prefer that? The judge asks
All I can do is nod
"Great please precede Mccullers" I head back to my seat not looking at the other girls
I sit next to Ali and she pushes the hair off her face "It's over" she says
I just stare at Jenna like she stared at me when the explosion went off.
Next chapter we will find out Emily's side . Not to forget Jenna's and Alison's testimony all in one chapter you know that's going to be good. Maybe Emily having Ali talk last is a good thing….or maybe not.
Depending on how much feedback I get today, I might update on Monday.
Thoughts are appreciated ( I would review ;) hint hint
