Ella's POV

All I could think about was Iggy.

I wasn't paying attention and I bumped into someone who unfortunately had been carrying a tray of food and his spaghetti fell all over me.

My faced burned red from embarrassment as everyone in the cafeteria laughed at me. I took a deep breath and casually walked out of there to the bathrooms. I wasn't going to run, I wasn't going to cry, I wasn't going to give them the satisfaction.

I grabbed my bag from my locker and walked into the thankfully free bathroom and scrapped the food off my shirt. I always carried an extra shirt in my bag, things like this usually happened to me.

I changed my dark blue shirt over to my black shirt.

I wasn't exactly the most popular girl at school. I kept to myself, usually thinking about cases or off in my own little world. No one really liked me. They picked on me.

Just wait; one day when they're on trail for something, I'll bring all hell down on their asses.

I put my dirty shirt back in my bag and put my bag back in my locker. I headed back to the cafeteria, this time I watched where I was walking.

I sat down next to my older sister Max.

Max was a bit taller then me and had light blonde hair and brown eyes. She was smart, funny and bad ass. Max was pretty, but her attitude stopped her being popular. She was like a best friend to me.

She raised her eyebrow at me as I sat down and I knew she knew about the spaghetti incident. I just shook my head and she let it go.

Nudge, my other friend, bounced over to us and sat down. Nudge was tall and slender with mocha skin and dark frizzy hair that she has straightened this morning.

"Morning all. How was your first periods? Mine were awesome, there was this new teacher and he took us for english and he was like really funny and cool and didn't give us any homework..." she continued to ramble for a few minutes.

"And then she was like crying and stuff. And yeah" she finished and we just nodded, not even knowing what she was talking about. Nudge loved to talk.

Just then Fang silently slid in next to Max and wrapped his arms around her.

Fang was Max's cute as boyfriend. He was tall and had a great build with black hair that fell over one eye. He had tanned olive skin and dark eyes.

Fang didn't like to talk much and to people who didn't know him he seemed emotionless, but we knew better. Fang was so sweet and caring, especially when he was with Max.

The mood got a little awkward as Dylan sat down.

Dylan was tall and a little broader then Fang. His hair was dark blonde and his eyes were turquoise. Dylan and Fang are twin brother, not identical obviously, and they have known us for years.

They live on the same street as us and we practically grew up together.

So it was no surprise Max and Fang got together, we could all see it was going to happen.

The cute love story of two best friends who fell in love. But it wasn't always like that.

Fang went to live with his dad for a year and in that year Max and Dylan started dating. When Fang got back him and Max both realized how much they missed and loved each other and she broke up with Dylan gently and soon after Fang and her started dating. Dylan was heart broken, but he's doing ok now.

So this was my little group of friends.

"So mum said you went to jail with her last night" Max said taking a bite of Fang's apple and he shot her a dirty look.

"Yeah, new client" I shrugged.

"Who is it? Is it some bitch? Oh, is it a boy? Is he cute? What did he do?" Nudge fired at me.

"It's a boy about my age. He's in for rape" I said softly and Nudge sighed.

"Dam" she said.

"He's innocent though" I added.

"How do you know?" Max asked.

"I just know" I said.


I walked behind mum as we walked down the hall.

We were put in a conference room and were left alone.

"So. You really left Max and Fang home alone" I stated and mum gave me a dirty look and I knew she was regretting it and I grinned.

"Don't worry, Fang is...old fashioned. They wont do anything" I said and she relaxed.

"Much" I added and she shot another dirty look at me.

The door opened and two guards walked in and Iggy followed.

I looked at mum and she nodded and I went over to him and led him to our table. The guards nodded and left.

"Hi Iggy how are you doing?" Mum asked.

"First off. I have something to confess" he said
