Demented and Deranged

Summary:

Clare Edwards is an inmate at a Women's Correctional Facility in Toronto. She has caught the eye of a raven haired, new jail guard, Eli Goldsworthy. Little does Eli know is that tiny, blue eyed Clare Edwards is in jail for murder and attempted murder. Clare has a mission in life, not to impress the cute jail guard or to kill, but to make a difference and make a statement.


"Okay Mr. Goldsworthy, please stand right there and smile." Eli Goldsworthy was at Toronto's Women's Correctional Facility's front office, getting his picture taken. Why was he taking a picture at a women's jail you may ask. Well, Eli is officially a new jail guard for building b8 level 4, where all the young women were. His dream was to become a police officer, but he wanted to work with his friend Adam and he wanted to experience what it was like to work with criminals.

Adam was his best-friend since high school. Adam was an FTM, when Eli first found out, he was really cool about it. Eli was the pure definition of the three C's. The three C's were Calm, Cool, and Collected. Besides that, Adam and Eli were there for each other.

"Hey man!" Eli turned his head to see his best friend come through the double doors, walking into the building, towards him in his uniform. Navy blue short sleeved button down, bullet proof vest on the inside that made him look bulky, navy blue pants, black belt, black shoes, a light gray lanyard with the level and building Adam works in on a card, and a I.D. with his information and not to mention his belt that had a gun, pepper spray, a pocket knife, flashlight, and a taser.

"Sup man." Eli and Adam did their 'Man hug'. "Adam and Eli! come here quick!" said Fiona Coyne from the break room. Eli and Adam looked at each other and shrugged at Fiona's sudden outburst. Fiona worked at the information desk where the inmates loved ones would come in and pay for the inmates and bail them out. Fiona loved her job and had the biggest crush on Adam. Adam liked her too, but was too shy to admit anything. Adam, Eli, and Fiona have known each other since high school. All three of them went to Bardell High School together. But only got involved with each other when Adam and Fiona started flirting without noticing.

When the two young men walked into the break room, there sat three other jail guards sitting on the couch leaning on their knees and eyes set on the T.V. watching the news. Fiona was sitting on the arm rest with her legs crossed and watching the television also. Fiona was in a black pencil skirt, a dark blue blouse and was wearing black high heels, her hair was in her natural beach curls.

"Guys! guys! come look at this!" Fiona beckoned, her eyes not leaving the television. Adam and Eli grabbed two chairs and placed them in front of the T.V. Fiona then grabbed the remote and made the television louder.

"I am Lisa Chung with channel eight news with the latest story. A young woman tonight, has killed two of her sisters, and attempted to kill her step mother. Here's Michelle Williams live on the scene. Michelle."

The anchor woman then turned her gaze towards the screen on her right where they will be showing where the live reporter was. Adam and Eli looked at each other in shock and continued to watch the news. The area looked a little familiar to Eli, but he couldn't exactly remember it, so he put that aside.

"Thanks, Lisa. I am Michelle Williams and I am here LIVE at the Edwards home in Toronto Canada."

She then gestured towards the Edwards home. It was a modern house, made out of red bricks, it also had the number 28 on the front door. The entire house was blocked with yellow, DO NOT CROSS tape. It was kind of shocking for the six workers at the jail, to see such a welcoming home surrounded with cop cars, ambulance, and news reporters everywhere. Also, nosy neighbors trying to see what had happened.

The news reporter was in a wind storm in front of the normal looking house, holding her microphone with the number 8 in red. Michelle Williams was dressed in a dark blue coat, she had matching gloves and had on white pants. She looked to be in her early 30s.

"It was said, that at around 3:30 this morning, neighbors heard a gun shot come towards the Edwards home. The only people in the home at the time were, three teenage girls, and their mother. Identification has not been found. Here is Bethany King, she heard the gun shot go off. Here is her take on the events."

The camera man then turned his attention towards a girl that had black hair that was up in a messy bun, while wearing grey sweatpants, tan ugg boots, a TU sweatshirt on, and black framed glasses. She shivered as the wind hit her.

"Me and my boyfriend, Steve just got settled in, because we came back from a visit from Vancouver, and we got home later than intended and just when I was about to close my eyes and sleep, I heard a gun go off. So, I told my boyfriend to call the cops.

The girl looked a little scared. She kept on looking back at the house where the crime was committed. Everyone in the break room was quite, eyes set on the t.v

"While he called the cops, I saw a blonde woman holding her shoulder - I think, through the window. I also saw another female just standing there. I got scared and I ran to my boyfriend and that's all that happened, that I witnessed."

The camera man then turned the attention back to Michelle as the girl walked back to her home. Adam, Eli, Fiona and the three other jail guards were all stunned. A girl shot someone? Eli wondered if the woman died, or if that girl that fired the gun got sent to jail.

"There you have it folks, It was said the two other females in the house have been announced dead with a slit in the throat and a carving on their abdomens of a heart. The older woman, that has been identified as the mother in the house, has been shot in her left shoulder. She is in critical condition while the other female is going to the county jail to be questioned. I am Michelle Williams from channel eight news, back to you Lisa."

The screen then went back to the studio where Lisa Chung was at. Fiona then turned the t.v. off and everyone was silent. "So, how many days do you guys think until this 'Edwards' chick comes here?" said Joe. Joe was a jail guard also. He worked in building c9 level 2, where all of the crazy inmates lived. He was also one of those jail guards where he gives inmates a shot with a needle to make them sleep if they ever attacked another jail guard or inmate.

"I'm guessing two to three weeks from now. They have to question her. But if they prove her guilty early, or she confesses up, I would say…one week tops!" said Carl. Carl was a field guard. He worked in section A, outside. He worked with the inmates that would go out and do yard duty. He would keep watch on the criminals, he would make sure they didn't attack each other.

Eli got a little excited, he starts work on monday. It was now friday, maybe he would be able to see this 'Edwards' girl. He wondered what this girl looked like. Maybe she was big, with tattoos and battle scars all over. Maybe she was bigger than him. Eli wouldn't know until she actually got checked in to Toronto's Women's Correctional Facility.

Eli's entire life, he wanted to be a police officer. Or at least something close to it. He also liked to get into peoples heads. He always wanted to know what was in others minds, he would ask questions, make statements and took mental notes about everyone.

Eli always wore black. Black was one of his few favorite colors. He was always marked as Emo, Goth, or death loving freak. He drove a 1963 Miller Meteor-bodied Cadillac hearse from Newfoundland named Morty. Eli's uncle gave it to him when he turned 17 years old. Eli always got questioning looks from strangers, they always thought someone had passed away or something.

Throughout Eli's entire life, he was known as the odd ball. He was bullied in the 4th grade when he was 9 years old by a boy named Mike. Mike was a year older than Eli, and he wasn't to fond of him. Everyday at recess, Mike would chase Eli and tackle,punch and kick him. The teachers on yard duty never noticed Mike chasing Eli.

Eli would hide in the cheese box or him and his friends would stay close to the teacher, because if he stayed by the teacher, Mike wouldn't hurt him. Mike made Eli stronger - in a way. After Mike graduated from the 6th grade and moved to the states for middle school, Eli made a pact on himself, to never let anyone take advantage of him.

In his junior year of high school, Eli and a boy named Mark Fitzgerald also known as Fitz, declared War on each other, after Fitz broke Morty's hood ornament. Eli, - being the stubborn person he is, made sure he had the last word. Eli got Fitz arrested for fake I.D. possession. In return, Fitz brought a knife to a school dance and threatened to stab Eli, but at the last minute stabbing a wall instead of Eli.

After that night, Fitz got sent to Juvie and got expelled from Bardell High School and ended up going to Degrassi Community School. He also "Found god" while in juvie. Eli didn't believe one word Fitz told him. It was all an act to get Eli to forgive him. But when Fitz got to Degrassi, he wasn't all that into god, he was just a nicer person in general and made friends with a certain murderer of two step sisters…

Eli had a girlfriend at the time named Julia Groome. She had straight, black hair, with bangs. She was into the same things Eli was into, but wasn't too fond of Morty. She was sarcastic, very blunt and was very nice. Her and Eli met in the 8th grade but didn't start dating until the middle of freshmen year.

Julia had a hard time at home. Her step mother always pushed her around and told her negative things. That was the only thing Eli never liked about Julia. Sometimes she would let others push her and make her a push over. Of course Eli was always there for her, its just, he wanted his girlfriend to be proud and sure of herself. It was a major turn on for him.

Since Julia always had a hard time at home, Eli recommended to his parents - Cece and Bullfrog, that she stay with them is she ever needed space from her step mom. They said it was a great idea. Julia practically lived at the Goldsworthy home than her actual home.

Eli found out more about Julia since they were living with each other. Eli found Julia to be a bit of a slob. Not by a lot, but just a little. Whenever she made food in the kitchen, she never cleaned up after her self. She was also very lazy. Whenever they had to do chores on saturday, she always let Eli do the work while she just sat and watched t.v.

When Julia first moved in, she helped out with chores and helped Cece make dinner. But as time progressed and she lived there longer, her enthusiasm to help out dropped massively.

Also, living together made Eli and Julia's relationship more distant. Eli and Julia would always argue about the smallest things, but would eventually make up with each other. Eli and Julia also started losing interest in each other. Eli thought, maybe if he tried hard enough, he and Julia could look past all of their hard times. Julia, on the other hand, had a totally different idea.

Julia started cheating on Eli with a boy that had the same study hall she had. At first, it was just fooling around. While Eli was out with Adam, he thought she was with her friend Maggie, but was over at the boys house having sex. At first, Julia and the boy were only fooling around, but the boy ended up growing feelings for her. And her for him.

Eli eventually caught Julia in the act. He got a text from the boy. He explained to Eli that he and Julia have been fooling around for three months, and that he deserved to know. Apparently, the boy told Julia, if she was going to continue to fool around, she had to break up with Eli.

Julia didn't want to break up with Eli, but she wanted to be with the boy at the same time. She told the boy that they should just continue to fool around, because it was a lot of fun. In anger, the boy texted Eli when Julia left his house to return to Eli's house.

The second Julia returned, Eli was waiting for her on the couch, in the dark. He asked her where she was earlier that night. He wanted to test her, see if she was even worth keeping. If she would confess to Eli that she had been fooling around. She lied. She told Eli that she was watching a move and her friend Maggie's house with her other friends Rachel and Hannah.

Eli blew up in her face. Telling her she was lying and that he hated her. She tried to deny it but failed, Eli had shown her the text he got from the boy she was fooling around with. For over an hour Eli and Julia fought in the living room.

He yelled at her, she yelled at him, it was not a pretty picture. In results Eli ended up calling her a no-good, lazy ass, cheating, disgusting slut. He told her he never wanted to see her ever again and that he hated her with every being inside of him.

In tears, Julia ran out the door on her bike. She rode all the way to the boys house and he surprisingly accepted her with open arms. Eli ran upstairs, packed all of her belongings in her back pack and dropped it off at Julia's new boyfriends lawn.

Eli decided he didn't want to be in long term relationships like he was with Julia. He only went on dates and dated a girl for a couple of months, then broke it off before they got too serious and too attached. In his senior year of high school, he studied all things about jail. He learned how people would smuggle in things to the inmates. He learned how inmates would make their own homemade weapons out of normal, everyday things. He learned about racial disagreements on the court yards. He learned a lot of things about Jail.

He didn't want to work in a jail where Males were. He was not mentally or physically fit to work there. If he did decide to work at a jail where males stayed, he would most defiantly get murdered there, or be scared for life. And working with women gave an idea in his mind. What did these women do to end up in such a terrible place? How bad are they? What is going on in their heads? All of these questioned lingered in Eli's mind.

One of the many reasons Eli was excited about meeting this Edwards girl is because he wanted to know the How's, the What's, the Who's, the Why's of this girl. She obviously did something bad to go to jail and to be on the news. So why not get some answers from her?


Monday

Eli got out of Morty along with Adam. Eli was dressed in his uniform, the same as Adam's. Navy blue short sleeved button down, bullet proof vest on the inside that made him look bulky, navy blue pants, black belt, black shoes, a light gray lanyard with the level and building he worked in on a card, and a I.D. with his information and his belt that had a gun, pepper spray, a pocket knife, flashlight, and a taser.

Eli was more than ready and excited. Eli and Adam walked into the air conditioned building where they had to punch in their times when they arrived at work. After they punched in, they went straight to the members lounge, and put their things in the medium sized, blue locker.

"Hey dude, you excited?" Adam asked as he took a bite out of his breakfast burrito. Eli sat down next to his best friend and took a sip of his hot coffee and a bite from his glazed doughnut wholes. "More than excited! Do you think i'm going to do good?" Eli was fidgeting with his black thumb ring. Eli was truly nervous.

"Eli, calm down, today your'e just going to be observing what we do all day. And besides you get building b8 level 4. Do you have any idea how less of a hassle that building is? Sure they have quick mouths, but it's better than my building." Adam then took Eli's coffee and drank from it. Eli then watched as three other guards sat on the same table Eli and Adam sat at.

At around noon Eli was at the check in, where all the inmates came in and had their information collected. Eli sat down at one of the the few separated chairs and watched as Michael - the juail guard Eli followed the entire day looked at an inmates file on the computer.

Eli experienced a lot in the few hours he started working. He got many cat calls from inmates saying he had a cute butt, or his hair was emo and that they would love to ravish him. They even told him he could advantage of them if he ever wanted to. Eli shivered at the vile women.

Non of the women were attractive. They were all big, dirty and intimidating. It was not what he expected. Sure he expected to have a few nasty inmates he had to encounter, but he thought he would at least have ONE inmate that would give him answers. He was sadly mistaken.

The door from the outside opened and in walked two female guards leading a new inmate. Eli tried to see who had come in, maybe he should move, but Eli's feet hurt, a lot. He closed his eyes resting them a little. He trusted his fellow co-workers to not let the inmate attack him. He heard one of the guards tell the inmate to sit down for a while, he then felt the presence of someone sit on the sit a few inches away a couple seconds later.

He opened his eyes and gasped a little. He saw a innocent young female sitting cross legged with her arms rested in her lap looking at her surroundings. She had light brown hair with red tints, which were curled and cut to her shoulders. She had snow white skin that looked really soft, she also had a small body frame. She wore a floral dress that stopped at about three inches above her knees and was wearing black flats with a white bow on the top.

What in the sane hell was this innocent girl doing in a nasty place like this? Maybe she was bailing someone out? No, she couldn't be this was the building where the inmates checked in. No, Eli thought. This girl couldn't possibly be a inmate, she was too innocent looking.

Feeling Eli's gaze on her, the girl turned her head and looked at Eli. Eli's lips parted a little and his eyebrows rose a little in awe. She had the most beautiful blue eyes he has ever seen. He had this feeling in his stomach. Butterflies? This girl made Eli nervous? The girl gave Eli a polite smile with her lips and that alone made Eli feel as if this girl had complete control.

Eli was completely attracted to her. She also had this confident glow around her presence. From the moment she looked at him, she kept eye contact. She looked at him straight in the eyes and didn't look away. Eli opened his mouth and said, "You have pretty eyes." without thinking. The girl smiled a toothy smile and said, "Thank you." in a soft, angelic voice.

Eli then smiled back and looked down and blushed a little. He asked, "What's your name?" Eli wanted so badly to hear her soft voice again. Before the girl could reply, one of the female guards said, "Clare Edwards. Your'e needed sweetie" The girl then smirked at Eli and stood up and walked to the female guard. Before turning into the room where she would be given clothing, info, the rules in the jail and get checked in, she turned a little and gave Eli a look. She cocked one of her eyebrows and shrugged her tiny shoulder a little and gave a mysterious tiny smile.

Eli sat there in confusion. Edwards? He heard that name before. Then all memory of friday afternoon came rushing back to him. Wait, Eli thought, No, she can't be the same Edwards that killed her sisters and tried to kill her step mother.

He walked to one of the guards and asked in a hushed tone, "Hey, is that the same Edwards that killed her sisters?" He really hoped it wasn't true. Maybe this girl was arrested for shop lifting clothes from the mall? The male guard grinned wickedly at Eli and said, "Yupp, couldn't believe it myself either. "

Eli's eyebrows lifted up and his eyes widen with shock. Oh crap, Eli thought I'm falling for a deranged angel.
