Heather walked with Chris into a room, and Chris shut the door and pointed to the chair across from his desk meaning this was his office. It was most likely where he spent most of his time.
"So what exactly do you want from me?" Heather crossed her arms "I killed my boyfriend and you already know that"
"I do" Chris smirked at her leaning back in the chair and putting his feet on the desk "But only you know why you did it, the news can tell you the version of whatever they want but only you can tell me what happened in between and that's the story I want"
"What if I don't want to talk to you?" Heather asked "What if I don't even know what made me snap at him? Yeah, I got pissed at him but I never meant to kill the asshole"
"How long were you together?" Chris asked
"Two years" Heather told Chris "He was a worthless piece of garbage, I gave everything up for him, including my family! I got a part time job and juggled school so we could live together and all he ever did was sit around and watch TV and cheat on me!"
"Go on….." Chris told her "Continue?"
"Fine…." Heather sighed
"Alejandro! I'm home baby!" Heather walked in the front door of the apartment they shared and Saw Alejandro just sitting on the couch doing nothing at all, They went to school together and lived together even though they were only in high school, Heather took a job at a fast food place and Alejandro was supposed to be looking for work but that never happened and eventually Heather just dropped it, Alejandro told her he wanted to "Focus on schoolwork" more which he never did his homework anyway, Heather did that for him along with hers after she got home from work, Focusing on schoolwork for Alejandro just meant that he wanted a hot tutor to sleep with.
"Hey" Alejandro greeted her from the couch he was sitting "How was work?"
"Busy"Heather told him "Did you do the dishes?"
"I didn't get around to it" Alejandro told her "I was with my tutor who says I'm doing well! By the way could you do my history report for me it's due tomorrow!"
"I'll try" Heather told him sighing "That means I'll have to put aside the laundry and doing my English homework….."
"You would do that for me?" Alejandro got up and kissed her "I'm touched"
"I didn't exactly say I would do it….." Heather told him "I just got home and I have other things to do! I can't do everything myself!"
"Neither can I" Alejandro told her "The bills came today, You know we don't have enough"
"I know" Heather sighed "I could always quit school and work full time"
"We could always move in with my parents" Alejandro suggested "I know you guys don't get along but it's better then living here! At least then you'll have time for both of our reports and school work and you'll have your social life back!"
"Fine…." Heather agreed "Promise me things will get better then?"
A few weeks later they moved into Alejandro's parents house, The only one that actually tried to like her was Alejandro's mother, the rest of them pretty much ignored her, of course nothing changed in fact it got worse with Alejandro's cheating, he would be over a new girls house every night while Heather had to quit school to pay her way to live in his house, Now she was doing Jose's homework too! Thankfully he graduated in a few months so that would stop, lucky for her it stopped sooner then she thought when both brothers suddenly dropped out too! Then she never saw him at all and was stuck at home with his family who hated her, Alejandro was a charmer though and very good looking, regardless of how heartless and useless he was she couldn't say no to him.
"Where have you been?" Heather waited for him downstairs at 3am
"I was out with some friends" Alejandro told him
"You said you were going to help me clean" Heather told him "You told me and your mother that!"
"My mother knows very well by now that I won't" Alejandro told her "You should know that too!"
"I don't know why I deal with you" Heather sighed "You're going to drive me to drink one of these days….."
"Heather, you know I love you" Alejandro told her "Don't be like that"
"Don't be like what?" Heather asked "I do everything for YOU! I gave up my family and education for YOU and what do you give me?"
"I always come back to you" Alejandro told her "That should mean something"
"You shouldn't be cheating in the first place!" Heather told him
"They mean nothing to me" Alejandro told her "Do they live here with me?"
"No" Heather told him
"They don't live with me because they are whores" Alejandro told her "You're not a whore, you are my girlfriend who I love very much and some day plan to marry! I may not be the best and I may cheat sometimes but I always come back to you and that's all that should matter"
"You need to do better" Heather told him "Get a job! Please? Can you do that for me?"
"I will I promise" Alejandro kissed her "Let's go to bed, Tomorrow I'll make you breakfast and then you can help me find a job"
Of course Alejandro's cheating ways never stopped and he only "Changed" for a day or two! Nothing was ever permanent for Alejandro, Heather was the longest relationship he ever really had, He himself told Heather that he cheated and Heather cared for him that much that she stayed, it was really a bad case of one sided love.
"Eventually I couldn't take it anymore" Heather told Chris "I should have left but I was in too deep! I gave up everything and in return he gave me nothing not even love or consideration"
"So you killed him? Chris asked her "Do you think it makes you nuts? Do you think you're crazy?"
"I think I was a fool for ever believing him" Heather told Chris "I never should have dropped out of school or left my family"
"Are you crazy?" Chris asked "You didn't answer that"
"I don't think I am" Heather honestly told him "But isn't that the story? Crazy people never assume they're crazy"
"I don't think you're crazy" Chris told her "It's my opinion, the public has man versions of the story but if what you say it true then I would say you are not crazy"
"Does this mean I have to go to jail then?" Heather asked "Being as you say I'm not crazy?"
"No, you'll be staying here" Chris informed her "I don't think you're nuts I think pressure got to you, but it's my job to evaluate you, It's not my choice on who gets released and who doesn't when it comes to cases like these, meaning if your family admitted you or you didn't kill anyone then they can decide when you can go, however being as you did kill him it's completely up to the a judge which would take a very long time so for now you will be staying with us"
"That's it?" Heather asked "Telling you my story gets me nowhere?"
"Pretty much" Chris laughed "It made you feel better, I'll put you in anger classes and that's basically it"
"So, I'm pretty much spending my life in here to rot?" Heather asked Chris who then got up and opened the door to his office
"Pretty much" Chris told her "I don't know what else to tell you, but I need to go handle Zeke, in which he truly does belong here…I hope he didn't set fire to the toilet seat again"
Chris sighed and quickly ran down the hall to tend to whatever disaster Zeke caused this time, there was ALWAYS something that boy was doing.
Heather walked down the hall, it was quiet, so quiet it was almost creepy, Heather made it down the hall to find Noah talking to himself, Heather decided to listen to the boy, he was reading and making comments to himself, just sitting there on the floor, Heather was sure he wasn't even supposed to be there.
"So when using make sure you only use 3 at most if giving to patient otherwise side effects could be risky…." Heather heard Noah reading "Do not continue to give to patient if fever reaches over 100, if for any reason fever does reach over 100, stop the usage and call a doctor immediately!"
"That boy loves his medical books…." Heather said to herself as Noah kept reading to himself about whatever it was he was reading, she listened carefully as he stopped reading and was actually talking to himself.
"So, that's what went wrong with Cody….." Noah sighed to himself
Heather was shocked, Did she actually hear him say that? Maybe not but he sure as hell heard her when she tripped.
"What are you doing?" Noah asked helping her up
"Nothing…I…was….just…." Heather was surprised "So, you read medical books?"
"Yes, I do" Noah told her "Don't change the subject, Were you spying on me?"
Heather couldn't help but blurt it out to the boy.
"You Remember" Heather couldn't help but say to Noah, Noah's face remained emotionless and he just looked at her.
