Chapter
2
Here is my story...
Faith had killed man.
Cold
blooded murder. I think I was still in the land of denial. I just
wanted to wake up from this horrid nightmare and I would be safe in
bed with no murderess in my house. Of course it never happens like
that does it?
Faith had helped my stunned self into the
apartment. She knew I wasn't taking this well.
I loved Faith, I
really do. Ever since we were in high school we were best friends. I
had had a boyfriend and he was hurting me and Faith "rescued" me.
She was my protector and I was the responsible one. We never felt
like we could survive without each other.
A year ago, I again was
in another abusive relationship. Nothing bad just he would slap me
once in a while. (I always seemed to go for the bad boys.)
Once he
had made a huge mistake he had hit me in front of Faith. Faith had
ended up wailing on him until he was unconscious and in a coma.
She's
still on probation for that.
Faith helped me into my room. She
knew that I couldn't handle this so she did all she could do to
help.
She sat me down on my bed. I wasn't moving at all as the
images ran through my mind.
She reached over and too k the bun out
of my hair. Then helped me undress and helped me into bed.
She did
this. She murdered someone. I couldn't believe that.
She was now
pulling the comforter over me and turned off the light leaving.
I
drifted off to sleep as the nightmares filled my head.
I woke
with a jolt the ending of a nightmare had woke me.
I was sitting
up straight in my bed but I was so exhausted I fell back onto the
soft material and just stared at the ceiling.
Not so shocked
anymore I could fully think about what was happening.
I hope
Faith was right when she said she'd take care of everything.
Murders happened all the time in L.A. How was this any different?
Then I realized something was different. It was happened to us.
You
always hear about these things but you never realize that it can
happen to you till it does.
Just then Faith came rushing into my
room.
"It's on TV"
My eyes widened as I rushed into the
living room. The TV was on the local news station
"Cops
found the body of John Jamison in the alley behind a bar in L.A. Cops
believes they have found the killer due to anonymous witness. No
further information will be released at this time."
The
TV had just told me they have found out who killed the guy. I started
to panic there was a knock at the door.
I felt like I could of
fell over that ever second. I walked over to the door then opened
it.
"Hello?" I asked the woman at the door behind her stood
two men.
"Hello are you Buffy Anne Summers?"
I felt like I
was about to be killed. "Yes." I stuttered out.
"Miss.
Summers I have a warrant for your arrest. Please come with
me."
"What!" I asked, they thought it was me. They thought I
killed this man I didn't have the heart to tell them it was
Faith.
"What!" I heard Faith from the background.
"Witnesses
have placed you at the crime scene last night. Please come with
me."
"No!" Faith yelled. "You can't she didn...." I
interrupted her.
"Faith calm down." She came up to me and
whispered.
"You didn't do it."
I whispered back to her
just out of the range of the police. "Faith let me take this you
could get in a lot more trouble for this instead of me. They don't
have evidence that I did it. Just a witness. Just someone's word. You
actually have evidence against you. Physcical evidence. Plus you're
still on probation"
Faith hung her head down knowing she
couldn't fight with me and nodded.
"I love you B." She told
me. I looked up to face her.
"Love ya too." I said giving her
a hug. I finally released and the female officer took my hands and
cuffed them. I could see the pain in Faiths eyes as she did that. I
wasn't sure if Faith would break down crying or attack the officer.
Fortunately I was pulled out of there before we had a chance to find
out.
My hands hurt so much the officer, that the others called
Lilah had held of my hands really tightly and it stung.
Lilah
shoved me into the car back seat. I felt like I was trash. It was
weird how people could make you feel like that.
