COLLIDE (chapter 19)
Massive apology for the long wait. I was tied up with Christmas and what not.
➖
(Abby's POV)
I picked at my fingernails as I sat in the back of the police car. My nails becoming shorter and shorter with every second passed.
I was nervous and furious at the same time. What the hell had Dan done now? I was intrigued to find out.
"You a family member darling?" the police man asked from the front seat.
I immediately sat up straighter and and scowled. I hated men calling women darling. It was so demeaning and downgrading.
I know the policeman was only probably trying to spark up a conversation but even so I was still annoyed. I quickly wondered what I was going to say.
If I said I wasn't family I would probably be chucked out of the car as the police had a strictly "only family members visiting" policy.
I did the worst thing possible and lied to the police. Great lesson here kids!
"Um yeah I'm his...." what do I say I worriedly wondered "sister" I decided with. It fit the best.
"Older or younger?" the policeman asked quizzically frowning at me through the side mirror.
"Younger" I answered quickly, nearly too quickly
"Sure" the policeman mumbled. He could see right through my lies but decided to drop the matter.
"What has Dan done?" I asked curiously. I truly madly wanted to know and the suspense was biting away at me.
I was still annoyed at Dan for leaving me this morning after we had shared such a great night. Obviously what he left for got him into this trouble and that hurt that that was more important than me. A small part of me was therefore guiltily glad he got into trouble. On the other hand I didn't wasn't him to be hurt or actually get convicted of anything serious.
I still cared about him.
"I'll tell you at the station darling" he grumpily answered. And just as i was starting to like the guy for letting my lying go, he called be 'darling' again and we were back to square one.
"Humph" I huffed crossing my arms am sliding down in my seat. I didn't understand why he couldn't tell me now. Ugh annoying old grumpy man!
"Here we are" he suddenly said making me jump and sit up straighter so I could look out the widow.
We were outside the police station and I gulped at the sudden realisation that this was really happening and that Dan was in serious trouble and I was the only one who knew.
The policeman opened the door for me with a smile which I didn't return. I was too worried and scared of what lied ahead of me inside that building.
"This way please" he instructed nodding towards the front entrance of the police station. I nodded back at him before continuing through the doors alone as the policeman had gone to park the car.
I walked up to the front desk playing with the hem of my shirt as I was so nervous.
Big burly policeman and women were stood all around me silently glaring at my small and frail state being in this intruding building and I felt really intimidated.
"Um....hey" I awkwardly addressed the lady working behind the desk. What do I say? OMG I hadn't thought this through, "um Im Dan Howell's sister, I was sent to visit him" I answered grimacing at my weird choice of words.
The women typed away at her computer without even glancing my way. Her long manicured nails making clicking noises on the keyboard. I wish she would just hurry up.
I wish anyone would tell me the exact reason why I'm here!
"First door on your right" she answered still tapping away "there." she pointed lazily at the door to the right of me, still without taking her eyes off her computer screen.
"Thanks" I sarcastically smiled and walked towards the door where I was met by a policeman with a metal detector.
"Simple procedure Miss" he said before lifting my arms above my head without asking my permission and scanning me head to toe with the metal rod.
I gasped at his rudeness but decided not to say anything as this was a policeman and I didn't need to get myself into any more trouble .
"All good to go Missy" he smirked and opened the door for me. These men were all jerks and I felt disgusted by them but my curiosity for what lay behind those doors overpowered my normal way of thinking.
I walked into the room to find a rectangle grey table with one identical chair either side of it. I felt like I was in one of those police drama's.
I sat down at the chair nearest me, my head spinning with thoughts when the door opposite me slammed open revealing the person I was sent to see.
"Fuck off me!" Dan seethed pushing the policeman's grip of his shoulder but having no such luck. He struggled in the policeman's arms wrenching his body in all directions to rid him of his grasped.
He pulled and wrestled until his eyes landed on mine and he instantly tensed.
I was sat with my arms crossed glaring at Dan and his useless struggle to get free. He locked eyes with me and i raised an eyebrow at him.
He quietly sat down at the seat opposite me without saying a single word.
"You should come here more often" the policeman chuckled as he left the room leaving me and Dan alone together.
We sat in silence. Me staring at the top of Dan's head as his gaze was tilted towards the floor. I was not going to say the first words, I was going to sit here until he had the balls to tell me what he had done. I crossed my legs and started tapping my fingernails on the table impatiently.
Dan lifted his head up at the sudden noise before his eyebrows knotted together at my current attitude.
I raised an eyebrow at him again encouraging him to speak in such a pissed of tone with a angry, dirty look on my face.
He sighed "Abby...." Dan groaned running his hands through his hair and across his face leaving his mop of hair in a tangled mess.
"What?" I snapped turning my eyes to lock with his. My blue irises caught his dark hazel ones and I saw him gulp before opening his mouth to speak.
But before he could the door behind me slammed making me jump around and my eyes to open in alarm. It revealed a old mid fifties looking man seething with anger and his face red with frustration.
"What the fuck have you done now Daniel!?!?" he yelled across the room.
I spun back around to find Dan sat across from me. His stance tense and his eyes , once hazel, turned black.
