Aiden

They put me in a cell but Sebastian walked out scat free.

Gotta love this fucking town.

Since it wasn’t everyday that a fucking psycho shoot up a school around here, Ravenbridge PD was busy as ever, bustling with officers from our town but also from Lakestone. I half hoped to see Officer Brooks pass my cell, thinking maybe he might be able to get me out of here, but Southie bastards put me in the farthest cell they had. There was barely any traffic over here. The light fixture on top of my head was clearly broken, as was the heating. I was cold and starting to get hungry after having been there for hours. They didn’t even have the decency to give me a glass of water.

I closed my eyes and let my head fall back against the concrete wall behind me.

They took my phone and wouldn’t answer me no matter how much I called for them or paced around the small room. I ended up sitting on the hard, uncomfortable bench that was the cell’s only furniture and waited. The sun was setting outside and soon I’d be in the dark too.

Still, I didn’t regret a single thing. Defending Nova had been worth it.

Suddenly, the sound of keys jingling made me open my eyes and I watched as Sergeant McKenzie, another asshole, glared at me.

“Walker.” He opened the door, “It’s your lucky day, someone paid your bail. I better not catch you here again.”

Yeah, like I wanted to ever come ba— wait, what?

“Someone paid my bail?”

I suspected the reason they had me in custody was because Sebastian’s fucking parents demanded it —after all, how dare some Northie scum kick their son’s ass?— and my mom would never have had the money to get me out of there so soon.

“Aiden.”

Another voice made me look up into familiar brown eyes. I gulped.

Damon fucking Starling was staring straight at me and he looked even more intimidating alone.

“Mr. Starling,” McKenzie greeted half-heartedly before turning to me, “he won’t always be there to keep your ass out of trouble, boy. Behave yourself.” With that, he left us and went back to his desk.

My eyes found Nova’s dad again and with a nod of his head he motioned for me to follow him.

I did.

When he walked right out of the station and climbed into his car, I did the same, watching the gorgeous piece of metal with heart eyes. He’d come to the garage I worked at a few times to change his tires over the years and every time, I all but begged Francisco —the owner— to let me take care of it.

I was more into older cars but nobody could deny the beauty and power of a brand new Mercedes.

The inside was all brown leather, with all the fucking options, sparkling clean and smelling of expensive cologne.

“Here.” He gave me a sealed plastic bag I hadn’t realized he’d been holding, with all my belongings in it.

“Thank you.” I croaked, taking it from his hands, “For everything.
