::Latimore's P.O.V::


So I'm supposed to be discharged today, and I really don't want to leave Jasleen, or the comfort of the hospital.

But Ellanae and Jacob need me.

And they need to know the truth.

"Can't believe you're leaving already." Jasleen sighed as she paced back and forth with Charmaine in her arms.

"I know." I sighed.  "You'll have to come visit me though."

"Of course I will, and Charmaine of course."

"Her too." I chuckled.

"What time is the court date?" She asked.

"Another two hours from now."

"You guys have all your evidence?"

"Yup."

"Too bad you don't have a witness to anything Daniel's done."

I swallowed hard.

I'm going to confess everything in front the court today and get what's coming to me.

I can't continue living like this.

"Do you want to come with me?"

She turned back and looked at me.

"Huh?"

"To the court? I need someone to be there with me."

"Are you okay?" She asked.

I nodded my head as I propped myself up with the crutches.

"Peachy."

::Ellanae's P.O.V::


So, Jacob and I are going before the judge today.

Maybe we'll FINALLY be able to sort this whole mess out.

I've been in this cell by myself for the past two days since someone came and got Luna out.

She promised she'd come today to see what would happen though.

"Come on." The guard said as he unlocked the cell.

I turned around and they handcuffed me, then led me down the hall.

As I was walked out, I caught a glimpse of Jacob being carried to another car.

He smiled at me, and I managed to read his lips.

"I love you." He mouthed.

I smiled as I was pushed into the car.

All I could imagine running through my mind was getting out of these handcuffs, and being able to hug my family again.

Especially Xavier.

We pulled up to the courthouse and my mind wavered.

It wasn't till I sat down among the people sitting in the stands that I finally snapped out of it.

"Hey." Jacob said whispering at me.

I blinked a couple times to see I was sitting down at a table, next to Jacob, and our lawyer was at the very end.
