I moved fast through the city. Back streets. Avoiding main roads. My legs burned but I did not stop. News alerts kept popping on the stolen phone. “Accused Killer Damien Escapes After Courtroom Drama.” They had my picture everywhere. I needed to see Alex. Had to. He owed me that much.

    Damien I moved fast through the city. Back streets. Avoiding main roads. My legs burned but I did not stop. News alerts kept popping on the stolen phone. “Accused Killer Damien Escapes After Courtroom Drama.” They had my picture everywhere. I needed to see Alex. Had to. He owed me that much.It was past midnight when I got to his place. The house was dark but I knew the back window lock was loose from old times. I jimmied it open quiet as I could and slipped inside. The kitchen smelled like whatever takeout he had eaten earlier. I waited in the living room shadows until I heard footsteps. Alex came down the hall rubbing his eyes like he could not sleep. He froze when he saw me.“Damien?” His voice cracked. He backed up a step but did not yell. Not right away.I stepped closer. My hands were shaking but I kept them at my sides. “Why Alex? Why did you say that up there? You know me. You know I did not kill anyone.”He crossed his arms tight over his chest and looked at the floor. “Beca

    Damien I sat there in the back of that van after the judge banged his hammer and sent everyone home for the night. My hands were still cuffed tight in front of me and the orange jumpsuit itched like crazy on my skin. The two guards up front were chatting about some football game like I was not even there. Maximum security my ass. Budget cuts they called it. Short route back to the jail.I kept replaying Alex’s words in my head. No matter how hard I tried to focus on something else, they kept coming back. Every few seconds I heard his voice again. Every few seconds I saw him standing there in that courtroom while everyone watched him. He looked nervous, almost sick, but that did not change what came out of his mouth.He said it was possible I killed Marcus.Possible.Such a small word, but it felt heavy enough to crush me.The worst part was not even what he said. It was the fact he could not look at me while saying it. His eyes stayed fixed somewhere else, like he could not stand see

    Alex I blinked hard as we walked into the courtroom because everything felt too loud already. People shuffling papers, lawyers whispering like they knew secrets, and that wood smell from the benches that made my stomach turn even more. Jax stayed right by my side the whole way in, bumping my shoulder on purpose every few steps. “You look like you’re about to puke on the judge’s shoes, Alex. Try not to. They charge extra for that shit.”“Shut up,” I muttered back, but I half smiled anyway because what else was I supposed to do. My hands kept wiping on my jeans like they would not stop sweating. Lila sat already in the front row, legs crossed tight, tapping her foot like she could not wait for her big moment. She gave me this little nod when she saw me, like we were on some team winning a game. I nodded back but my chest felt all twisted up. Jax leaned in close. “Breathe, man. You got this. Just stick to what we talked about.”Before I could say anything else, they brought Damien in. H

    Alex I blinked a few times and the world came back blurry, like someone had smeared everything with water. My head felt heavy, pounding right behind my eyes. I was on the ground, dirt and leaves stuck to my shirt. Jax sat right next to me, cross-legged, his phone still in his hand. He looked worried but also like he was trying not to smile, that half-smirk he always had when he thought he knew better than everyone.“You back with us?” he said, leaning closer. His voice was low but it had that edge, like he was poking fun even now. “You dropped like a sack. Scared the shit out of me for a second.”I pushed myself up on my elbows. Everything rushed back at once. The video. Damien’s face in it. What he did to me that night after the party. In my own house. My stomach twisted so hard I thought I might throw up. I had been falling for him. Like, really falling. Calling him in the middle of the night because I wanted to say I liked him more than friends. And he… he did that. I trusted him.

    Alex He let out a big breath and his shoulders dropped. “Thank you. You do not know how much that means. ” His eyes stayed on mine and it made my face warm. I remembered lying in bed calling him over and over that night. Wanting to confess I liked him more than friends. More than anyone.We talked over each other a bit then.“But how did you even get here so fast?” he asked.“I took the bus. Skipped class again. Econs can wait. This cannot.” I laughed a little but it sounded forced. “Lila told me what happened. She tried to scare me but whatever.”Damien’s face changed. “Lila? What did she say? Do not trust her too much Alex. She acts weird sometimes.”“Yeah tell me about it. She tried to use my nudes to blackmail me. Please don’t ask me past this stage.” I rolled my eyes and leaned back. “Like I would really let her control me. As if. I am here aren’t I?” My sarcasm came out sharp. “Oh sure Lila, blackmail me with my own naked ass on video. Great idea. That will make me listen.” I s

    Alex My heart pounded. I grabbed her wrist, not hard but enough to make her stop. “Do not. Okay? Just… give me time.” Inside I planned already. I would find a way to help Damien without her knowing. Tell the cops the truth. Delete those videos somehow. My feelings for him mixed with the guilt until I felt like throwing up. He ran after a guy who looked like me. That meant something. Maybe he felt the same. The idea made me sad and happy at once, like my chest might crack open.We argued more. Back and forth.“You owe me this,” she said.“I owe you nothing. You tried to rape me last night basically.”“Oh please. You liked it until you did not.”“I did not like it. I said no.” My voice got louder. A couple kids walking by looked over but I did not care. “You are sick.”She rolled her eyes. “Whatever. Just remember the videos.”I walked away from her after that, back towards class but my legs felt heavy. Econs waited but I could not focus. I sat in the back row staring at my phone. Trie
