A/N: Sorry it took me over a month to post I've been relaxing spending quality time with my family in Hawaii. I've been reading other FanFictions months worth that I missed out on because of school and my daughter. So I was just catching up and took a break on writing for a while. But now that I'm all caught up here's another chapter for you guys hope you enjoy! [Warning Strong Language]
Chapter 33 Depression
Few Minutes Earlier...
Apples P.O.V
Another boring fucking day of school was finally over and I just couldn't couldn't wait to get home. My brain can't take anymore of knowledge and needs time to relax. My mom bought a new month of Netflix so the rest of the day I can watch Naruto. Lilly and I watch it together actually, it's more fun when she's around. We enjoy watching it together so much that it became our thing we do. There was a huge crowd as everyone emerged from their classrooms to the courtyard. At the most usual the halls were clustered and as a freshman; I know it's going to be tough going through this bullshit every year. I narrowly squeezed through the crowd to put my books in my locker, and there Lilly were. Making out with her beloved boyfriend Lee all over both mine and her locker. A smile drew across my face my best friend found love. I knew it was going to happen sooner than later she's a very pretty, sweet, and caring wolf. When I walked up to them they didn't bother to stop. It's almost like they ignored I was in their presents.
"Ummm hey guys" I said awkwardly at the couple. They didn't acknowledge me at all and kept going at it.
"Helloooooo" I called again to no response. Lilly slightly moaned when Lee grabbed her ass whilst french kissing him. The position they were in was so hot turning me on a bit.
"I wish I had a boyfriend so bad" I said pouting jealous, then Lee pulled away quickly when he heard that. Lilly whined turning her head to me pouting I ruined their moment.
"Oh hey, Apple how long have you been there" Lee said chuckling nervously.
"Long enough, can I open my locker please you're kinda in the way" I said politely.
"Oh sorry" Lee said moving aside with Lilly as I started to put my combination in. Lee turned to Lilly and leaned on the lockers holding both her hands
"So Lillypad you want to hangout later on?" Lee asked with a crooked smile delicately rubbing her hands.
"Sure babe what time what place?" Lilly said with her signature smirk moving her bang behind her ear.
"But Lillyyy we were supposed to hang out today" I whined childishly feeling left out.
"Apple I'm so sorry but maybe some other time I promise I'll make it up to you" Lilly said with a hand on my shoulder.
"But we do this every Monday it's kinda our thing" I said sadly she's ditching me.
"I told you I'll make it up to you I promise" Lilly said convincingly with a sadden face herself.
"You'll have a lot of making up to do" I said upset putting my books in my locker.
"I don't want to come between you guys friendship so we'll just hang out some other time Lillypad" Lee said.
"NO!...I mean...I want to spend time with you more I'll make it up to her uhh right Apple?" Lilly said in last approval wrapping her arms around Lee's neck pecking his cheek with a wet kiss.
"Yeah whatever" I said rolling my eyes closing my locker walking away.
"Apple wait" Lilly called out taking steps chasing after me but I was long gone in the crowd. It feels so harsh being rejected by your own best friend to hang out with a boy. We made a promise when we were younger to never let boys become between our friendship. Nice to know promises are made to be fucking broken. My mind was so immerse on Lilly and Lee that I didn't notice the wolves in front of me and bumped into them.
"Oh well well well, look who we have here girls the biggest bitch in the whole school" Jillian said smirking while the cheerleading sluts giggled at her stupid rant.
"Not now Jillian I'm not in the mood" I said trying to walk past them but she forcefully pushed me against the lockers. She cuffed her hand on my muzzle and turned my head taking a closer look.
"Are those tears?" Jillian asked with a really face. I sniffed and ignored eye contact pushing her hand away.
"No" I said looking down embarrassed.
"Awwww the little puppy has been crying do you want your bottle or do you prefer your mother's tits?" Jaillan teased. A deep growl escaped my muzzle and I was ready to rip out her throat. Humphrey ran in between us just in time before I did any damages to her pretty slutty face.
"Hey what's going on here?" Humphrey asked holding onto my arm looking at Jillian.
"Oh hey cutie, mmm you're so sexy up close I can take you home and eat you right up" Jillian said seductively licking her lips; while the other cheerleaders just started drooling and winking at him.
"Leave him alone you're not doing anything with him you fucking slut" I said glaring at her to try me.
"And who are you to say?..step aside little pup the adults are taking" Jillian said sounding absolutely disgusted with my outburst. Another growl escaped my muzzle and it startled her a bit from the deeper growl.
"Jillian" Humphrey called and she faced him bright faced and wagging tailed.
"Yes cutie" Jillian replied smirking.
"First off stop calling me that...second off leave her alone and we're not going have any problems okay" Humphrey said putting his arm around my neck.
"Just for you fine whatever but why are you defending this loser?...she's a nobody" Jillian said cold hearted and I frowned in response.
"Well this loser is a somebody...she's my sister and I'm proud of the girl she truly is so if you don't like it you can fuck off or better yet fuck yourself" Humphrey said smirking at me forcing a smile on my face
"Ew okay now you became so unattractive just now...let's go girls" Jillian said walking away along with her cheerleading ducklings.
"Thanks" I said looking up at him with a bright smile.
"Don't mention it I hate her and her fucking cousin Jane" Humphrey said upset.
"What did Jane do to you?" I asked curious to why he would hate her.
"Uhhh, that's a long story for some other time" Humphrey said ignoring my question.
"Well, sorry about this morning I was being stupid...just so much was on my mind at the time and I took it out on you I didnt mean it I swear" I said guilty for yelling at Humphrey for only caring.
"I wish you told me earlier actually, how long has this been going on?" Humphrey asked.
"Quite sometime" I said softly, Humphrey gently moved up my sleeves showing the dark bruises.
"Did they do this to you?" Humphrey asked, then I nodded saddened. Humphrey wiped away my tears and stared into my eyes and said.
"It's okay I won't let it happen again if it does let me know...it might seems like I'm babying you but I just want to protect you...you're all the family I have left and I'll die if anything happens to you" Humphrey said putting his arm around me.
"Yeah I know and you're the best big brother a girl can ask for" I said kissing his cheek lightly.
"I have to be the best for the perfect sister" Humphrey said making me blush.
"Hey can I ask you something?" I asked as we started to walk down the less crowded halls.
"Sure" Humphrey said smiling.
"Can you take me to back to our parents abandoned house you fixed up?" I asked with a pleading face. Humphrey paused for a second unsure what to say.
"Humphrey please I really want to look around pleaseeee" I begged with big puppy eyes.
"Okay okay but don't touch anything in the house" Humphrey said giving in. I placed him in a big hug and said.
"Thank you so much" I said smiling widely before breaking away.
"Isn't today Monday?" Humphrey asked taking his phone out his pocket checking the day.
"Yeah it is, I thought you and Lilly have that amine stuff you guys watch" Humphrey explained and my smile instantly disappeared.
"She didn't want to hang out with me today she chose Lee instead" I said mocking her dreamy voice whenever she mention his name.
"If it helps I'll watch whatever you guys do" Humphrey requested.
"But Humphrey you hate what we watch you would do that for me?" I asked with a small smirk.
"After all that happened to you what kind of brother would I be to not be there for you" Humphrey said smiling.
"What about Kate?...you guys hang out every day and she's always referring you as Hubby it's so disgusting" I said somewhat annoyed and Humphrey just laughed.
"Really?..everyone else says it's cute when she calls me that" Humphrey said chuckling opening the main door for us to exit.
"I don't think so it's gross she needs to stop it" I said folding my arms stopping by the steps.
"I think someone's just jellyyy" Humphrey teased poking me playfully.
"Pshh no it's just gross" I said denying my jealousy. Humphrey put his phone back in his pocket and said.
"Kate might be the girl of my dreams...but you're the girl of my life...taking care of you and watching you grow has taught me a lot about us you know" Humphrey said and I couldn't help but smile. Before I could say anything a police officer slammed him against the wall and cuffed him. His nose was slightly bleeding and this ticked me off.
"Hey what the fuck are you doing leave my brother alone he didn't do anything!" I yelled trying to fight him off.
"Stand back child he's going away for a long time" The other officer said pulling me aside.
"Don't touch me you asswhole let me go!" I said trying to wiggle out his tight grasp. Humphrey looked to seem so wretched as the officer lead him to their cruiser.
"You like bringing guns to school huh?...you're going to be such a coward and not fight with your fist." The officer asked him.
"You don't know a damn thing about me Ricky...I didn't bring a gun to school fuck you" Humphrey said in hatred reading his name tag.
"What the hell you just say boy?" Ricky asked slamming him against the police cruiser hood.
"You heard me" Humphrey said unphased breathing heavily from getting the wind knocked out of him.
"I'll make you regret that coward...but first let's check and see if you don't have anything else on you" Ricky said checking his pockets taking out his belongings. He took out his phone, earbuds, wallet, and a case for jewelry.
"GIVE ME THAT BACK!" Humphrey yelled trying to break free causing a huge crowd to run over. The other officer ran over to help pin him against the car so he can finish searching him. Within seconds a stampede of wolves were watching Humphrey be harassed by officers. I was going to run out and help my brother but someone held onto me.
Present Time….
After the police car drove Humphrey away I ran all the way home and informed my parents what happened. They were completely shocked Humphrey could get in this much trouble. I knew for a fact Humphrey would never take a gun to school nor even try to shoot one. Mom and dad suited up and rushed to the station he was told to be taken to. I wanted to go with them but they advised me to stay home because of my age to enter. When they told me that I stormed up to my room and cried my eyes out on my pillow. Humphrey doesn't deserve to go through something like this. What kind of asswhole would do such a thing and frame him? This is so unfair and I feel so wretched to watch him go through that after what he told me. Seconds turned into minutes and minutes turned into hours before I cried myself to sleep.
Kate's P.O.V.
I was in my room worried and tortured about Humphrey getting taken away from me. There's no clue in my mind to where they took him and it's almost like I can hear him begging for me to help. Even though that was a few hours ago it felt like he's been gone for years. Humphrey is far away from being a criminal, this is so stupid to take away his freedom for this. I tried calling everyone to know where he was located but no one answered. My eyes were burning red and my makeup was washed by my irritating tears. Mom and dad tried to cheer me up but nothing in the world can cheer me up but my Hubby. My mind started to drift off to his dreamy eyes, and perfect smile. The sound of his voice always soothes me and makes me all gooey inside. Unfortunately, thinking of him made things worse. It took me to a level of crying a river before I had the reasoning to get up. All this crying and thinking of him made me want to put matters in my own hands. I jumped out my bed, washed my face, then fixed my hair, and headed straight out the garage door.
3 Hours Later...
My red Porsche took me to station to station and everywhere I went they were no files on Humphrey Johnson. It felt I went to every station in the country but not one of them have a recent file on the correct Humphrey Johnson. My eyes started to water as tears flowed down my pale cheeks. The tears became a pest as it was hard to drive so I pulled over and balled my eyes out next to a traffic red light. The radio was playing Stuck On Stupid by Chris Brown the same song that was playing when Humphrey dropped me off home drunk. A few minutes of crying a loud roaring car stopped by the red light next to me and it looked quite familiar. When I squinted my eyes to get a closer look, the face appeared to be Garth just as thought. The light turned green and he drove off but not before I started my engine following him.
The route he was taking was quite familiar but I drove close behind at a small distance. Minutes past of driving following him then I finally caught onto where he was going. He was driving to my home, but why would he do that 10:00 pm at night. A slight relief engaged me knowing the security cameras mom and dad installed would pick up whatever he does. He parked his car a great distance across the street from my home so I did the same. Garth waited in his car for a while gathering something before getting out walking to my home. I couldn't really make out what he had because it was night; but it looked like a tape.
"Garth, what the hell are you up to?" I whispered to myself getting out my car gently closing the door. I followed him quietly hiding behind a neighbor's car getting a clear view of what he's doing.
My parents car wasn't in the driveway putting fear in my heart knowing Lilly is probably home herself. Garth looked around to see if it was clear then climbed my house up to the camera by my window. He replaced the tape with a new one and came down shortly after replacing several more cameras. When he finished the last one he calmly walked back over to his car roaring away past me. What the hell is he doing with our security footage? Why would he even want that? This has to mean something big with this fucking asshole. I can't believe I dated that jerk just for his chunky muscles and looks last year. It goes on to tell you looks aren't always everything. I walked back to car and got in to see my phone lit up with 3 missed calls from a unknown number. At first I was hesitant but from curiosity I called back. It rung a few times before a raspy voice answered.
Humphrey P.O.V.
I was in a single jail cell by myself for hours thinking nothing other than my family. All that flashed through my head is Kate's caring tears escaping her gorgeous big amber eyes. I never wanted my sister to see me go out the way I did. My parents are going to be so upset and take me for granted. Now everyone is probably going to think I'm trigger happy and avoid me. Not only my fellow classmates would but my bosses or job opportunities would also. This is so fucked up being framed for some bullshit I didn't do. I swear when I spot Garth I'm going to prison this time because I'm killing that asshole. There's no other explanation to had done this but him. No wonder no one seen him at school he was plotting shit. Just thinking about it made my bruised head hurt.
Flashback Earlier…
We arrived at (SJPC) Southern Jasper Police Center that's almost 90 miles from my home. The officer drove through a lot of security gates into an underground road. It was slightly dark but every now and so a red and blue light would flash from the cruiser. When the officers parked the car he opened my door roughly and threw me out on the ground. Kicking me a few times in the face battering me. The officer picked me up by my cuffs and held onto me so officer Ricky can talk to me.
"You think you a tough ass boy where's your gun now you not shit without your gang huh?" Ricky said taking out his batan.
"Jasper is built on gangs and still running on gangs…police departments, FBI, the CIA those are gangs too so you're no different" I said before spitting blood on his face.
"Fuck you" I said barely able to keep my balance from my eye swelling. The officer chuckled and wiped the blood off his face with his arm sleeve.
"That's what I like about you kid...you got a lot of balls" Ricky said before pounding my nut sack with his baton. I yelped in pain with my head down as the blood leaked onto the ground. The officer let me go and I fell to my knees recovering with my head still down. Officer Ricky kneeled down to my level and said.
"No look here, you're in my lockup, from now on you say no sir yes sir to me and don't make eye contact with me without my say so you understand?" Ricky asked in a rough whispers.
"I can't make anymore promise I can't keep" I said spitting out more blood on the ground.
"There's no promise to keep son, it's a goddamn demand!" Ricky said angrily yelling in my ear hitting me in my swollen face with his baton. I groaned in pain with tears forming in my eyes.
"Do you understand me?" Ricky asked demanding.
"Yes" I said raspily, then he hit me once more in the same spot.
"Yes what?" Ricky asked.
"Yes sir" I said in defeat.
After I went through the process for fingerprinting and mug shooting I went back in the line with the other recent inmates. As we walked in a straight line to our cells I passed officer Ricky without noticing. He slammed me against the wall and waited from everyone to leave a few seconds later.
"Didn't I say not to give me eye contact boy?" Ricky said pinning me against the wall.
"But I didn't-"
I was interrupted when be briefly beat me and slammed my head against the wall repeatedly. It knocked the wind out of me and it angered me to fight back but I couldn't in cuffs. I curled up in a ball on the floor and just accepted the beating.
End Of Flashback…
An officer opened the cell and my head shot over to him. My heart raced a million miles per second I was finally getting out of this boring dump. It's been hours since look up and I'm more than ready to get back at Garth. The officer walked in and forced me out without even saying a word to me. As we walked past other cell inmates all of them shot me angry looks. Others even threatened to hurt or kill me. I came to wonder what I even do for them to say things like that to me. It's only been a few hours since I been locked up and I'm already gaining hatred somehow. The officer put me in the independent visitor custody. My mom and dad we sitting at a visitor's table with worried facial expressions. It haunt me everyday of my life seeing my mom with tears in her eyes with me in cuffs. This is not the wolf I am and never will be. He forced me to sit down at their table and uncuffed me. I glared at him angrily as he walked away then returned my vision to my parents.
"Oh my god what have they done to my baby" Mom said touching my face and I wincing in pain moving her hands.
"Umm I'm so sorry ma'am but there's a no touching rule in when visiting the custody" Officer Ricky said with a small smile moving back to the wall staring at me.
"It's okay mom I'll be fine, it's just a little bruise" I said rubbing her hands.
"They have no right to put their furry hands on my baby like this you look brutality beaten" Mom said with tears in her eyes.
"I've been through worse I can handle it" I said bring my eyes on dad.
"I don't even know where to start son" Dad said truly lost for words looking at my battered face.
"Dad I promise you I didn't do this I was framed, you know I would take a gun to school" I said seriously.
"You know I've known you for 14 years...I watched you grow into the mature young man you are now...I believe you son...but I don't think they will" Dad said referring to the cops.
"I don't give a damn what they believe or not I just don't want you guys to think I'm some sort of criminal" I said somewhat embarrassed.
"We know you're no criminal baby...you're our Humphrey and we're trying everything as possible to get you out of here" Mom said in a mother like tone.
"Visiting time is over" Officer Ricky said harshly putting the cuffs back on me.
"Whoa wait he just sat here only for 3 minutes" Mom said.
"It's late ma'am inmates are in their cells tucked in going night night" Ricky said forcing me up.
"Can we at least say goodbye sir?" Dad said stopping him, and he thought about if for a second before letting me go. Mom gave me a giant hug squeezing me tightly like I'm going off to the military.
"I'm going to get you out of here if it's the last thing I'll do" Mom whispered in my ear. When mom pulled away my dad hugged me next which was surprising. He never really hugged me before since I was little and I was happy to see him.
"I want you to know I'm not disappointed at all with you son...I'm proud of the man you have become and I uhh...I love you" Dad said forming a smile on my bruised face.
"I love you too dad" I said smirking but it was wiped away when Ricky forced me back inside. I looked back at my parents until I couldn't see them anymore. Ricky brought me into a solo phone booth and pushed me in.
"You get to call one family member for the whole week so choose wisely" Ricky said walking out the room locking me in. I dialed a number and hoped she picks up and isn't sleep because this is my only chance. The phone rung rung and rung but it still wasn't a answer. I was about to give up until the phone rung itself. It caught me off guard at first but I answered it anyway.
"Hello" I answered raspily.
"Humphrey?" Kate asked sounding worried and almost like she's been crying.
"Yeah, it's me" I said softly.
"Oh my god Hubby please tell me where you are I've never been worried or cried so much in my life I miss you so fucking much" Kate sounding like she's tearing up.
"I'm at SJPC if you want to visit but I'm going to be fine" I said calmly.
"No you're not...t-this is all my fault for being such a s-slut I brought this onto you" Kate said lightly sobbing.
"Kate please don't-...wait what you say?" I asked not sure I heard her correctly.
"This is my fault...if I haven't pressured you to fuck me this would've never happened I'm so sorry Hubby" Kate said still crying softly.
"Kate no that's not why I'm in here" I said and she scuffled a few times before saying.
"What?" Kate asked confused.
"I'm not in here because I smashed you in the girls restroom...I'm in here because I think Garth framed me" I said upset.
"Garth framed you?...but how?" Kate asked.
"He put a gun in my school locker and the janitors found it with my prints on it" I explained.
"That red furred bastard...he was just at my house a minute ago" Kate said pissed.
"He was as your house?...what was he doing?" I asked curious about her safety.
"I don't know but he was switching out our security cameras footage" Kate explained softly.
"Hmmm weird, keep an eye out on him if he comes back call the police doubting they'll do anything I hate these assholes" I said and Ricky knocked in the glass.
"30 seconds to finish up!" Ricky said yelled bluntly to all the inmates.
"Hey Kate I have to go we'll discuss more tomorrow" I said quietly.
"Okay, I'll come by tomorrow to get you out I promise...I lov-"
"Hello?...Hello?...Kate?" I called out.
"I cut the phone line dumbass let's go" Ricky said putting the phone back on the hook forcing me up.
"I can walk on my own you don't always have to harass me damn" I said and he pushed me.
"Shut the fuck up and get to steppin' boy" Officer Ricky said forcing me back to my sell. Once again as I past inmates they threatened me some more but they put no fear in my heart. Officer Ricky past up my original sell and forced me into a different one.
"What you doing you're passing my sell?" I said informing him.
"Didn't I tell you not to talk boy?" Officer Ricky asked headbutting me.
"You not shit without that gun, badge, and cuffs I want to see you fight like a real wolf and uncuff me pussy" I said purposely angering him.
He pinned me against the wall and was about to give me a huge punch to the face until the the inmates erupted in cheers as one of them were fighting in their cells. "The hell is wrong with these wolves?" I thought. Ricky held in his punch and just pushed in my new jail cell closing the bars behind me. Running to the noise of destruction. I looked out my cell to see what going on but I still couldn't see much. A group of officers ran past my cell to subdue the inmates. After a while I heard all the cheering stop when gunshots went off. I shook my head and sat on the bed in the back.
"Hey kid, that's mine you got top bunk" He said taking a shit on the toilet. He was a slightly aged wolf with fur and hair color just like mine. This wolf also had the same color eyes as me but just with a few scars in his face.
"Oh my bad" I said climbing up to the top wanting no more problems.
"What you in for?" He asked.
"I don't think that's any of your business" I said staring at the ceiling.
"Ehh that's fair…" He said.
"Did Ricky do that to you?" He asked moving his hand around his face.
"Yeah, why do you care?" I asked annoyed.
"Because, I liked they way you stood up to him...most of these wolves coward in fear" He said.
"I was taught die than to live like a coward" I said wisely.
"Good saying" He said getting off the toilet flushing it.
"I made the biggest mistake of my life and been stuck in here ever since because I choose to be a coward...I wish I was more like you when I was your age or close...I had a family...I had a son I wanted to raise like a soldier...all I can think about is what he's doing now" He said walking to the bars handing his arms out.
"Damn, what you do so bad?" I asked really beginning to become curious.
"I uhhh, used to have a little anger issues so sometimes I get out of control" He said and I leaned up looking at him.
"Do you know a wolf named Eve?" I asked and he was quiet for a second then nodded his head.
"She was my wife's best friend...Eve is the reason why I'm rotting in here...how you know her?" He asked looking back at me.
"Because she's my girlfriends mom" I informed him.
"Quite the irony huh...I bet she hasn't changed one bit" He said.
"It's beyond the irony because you're my dad" I said in complete shock.
"Humphrey?" He called in shock himself.
