32.
I woke up the next morning. Declan wasn't home. He's at his one of his classes before he and I head to the police station to ID my ex boyfriend Keith, who attacked Declan while I was away. I heard my phone ring.
I checked my phone. It was Coralina. I answered it. "Hello?" I asked. "Angelina, its Coralina. Declan told me that you want to ask me something," Coralina said.
"Yes, there's something I want to ask you. Since you use baby sit me since I was little and I am marrying your brother. So I've been wanting to ask you if you love to be a bridesmaid?" I asked. "Yes, I would love it. Thank you so much," she said.
"You are very welcome," I said. "Speaking of my brother, how is he doing?" she asked. "He's better. His ribs are still hurting," I said. "Ouch. Thank you for taking care of my brother and being there for him when I couldn't be there," she said.
"You're welcome. I better let you go. I will call you and let you know how it went," I said. "Okay. Have a good day," she said. "We'll try. Bye," I said. "Bye," she said. I hanged up and I got my running clothes on. I took a cab to Lark University.
I got to the campus grounds with a visitor pass. I got to the Starbucks. "Oh, hi Miss Loughlin, the usual?" Gracie asked. "Hi, Gracie. No, I like a Chocolate Chip Frappe and a coffee black for Mr. Loughlin, please," I said. "Coming up. He's waiting for you," she asked.
I paid Gracie. "No its on me," she said. "Thank you," she said. I sat down on the table. "Are you Angelina Marsden?" a girl asked.
"Sorry do I know you?" I asked her. "No but I know that you are the bitch that he's marrying. I want you to leave him so I can have him," she said.
I started laughing at her. "It's not going to happen. You just want to use him to make your grades go up. I know girls like you. Find someone your own age," I said. "Angelina, your orders are ready," Gracie said.
"Thank you," I said. "Careful, that's Victoria, she's obsessed with Mr. Loughlin. She's very jealous of you," Gracie said. I nodded. "Now if you will excuse me. You can fantasize about my fiance but you will never have him, perra loca," I said, leaving
I headed to his classroom and I knocked on the door. "Hey, babe," I said. His classroom was empty. "Hey. Come in," he said. I went to his classroom, shutting the door. "I got your coffee," I said.
"Thanks, baby. Sleep well," he asked. "I slept okay. How was your class?" I asked. "Good but one of my student's has been acting weird," he said. "Victoria?" I asked. "Yeah, how do you know?" he asked.
"She confronted me at Starbucks. She wants me to leave you so she can have you. I told her it ain't gonna happen. I told her go find someone her own age and I left," I said. He sighed and nodded.
"That's my woman. Should we go home and relax before we ID Keith?" he asked. "Yes. I'm in my workout clothes. I need to change," I said. He nodded. We left the campus. We see Victoria coming around as we left.
"Mr. Loughlin, I need to talk to you," she said. We continued to walk away. We left the building and got to his car. I sighed in relief. "That girl can't take a hint, can she?" I asked. "She really can't," he said.
"Well you need to do something about it," I said. "Oh I am doing something about it. One of my students named Gracie Haywood has proof that Victoria's obsessed," he said. "What proof?" I asked.
"Gracie said she can get some of Victoria's stuff and diary that proves that she's obsessed and harrassing me and now you," he said. "Good. Expose that little child," I said. He nodded.
Half an hour later, I came downstairs with a different outfit on. It was mostly in black with my gothic blazer that I wore for Halloween party that Kyle had that Keith and I met at.
Declan sees me and smiles. "You look nice, baby. New jacket?" he asked. "No, I had this jacket since middle school. It's the last thing that Keith has seen me in," I said. "Nice. Let's go id him," he said. We left the house to the police station to id Keith.
Police Station
Declan and I are at the station. Officer Danes was leading up to the room that they kept Keith in. We see him in the window. Declan looks at him. "Is that the man in the drawing who attacked you?" Officer Danes asked.
"Yes, that's him," Declan said. I looked at Keith and I started having flashback. I blinked and shook my head. "Babe, you okay?" Declan asked. I shook my head. "Had a flashed back," I said. "You okay, Miss?" Officer Danes asked.
"He's also her exboyfriend," Declan said. "Can he see us through this window?" I asked. "The other side of the window is a mirror but he can hear you. Ready to speak to him?" Officer Danes asked.
"Can I have a minute to breathe?" I asked. "Of course, Miss," Officer Danes said. I walked out of the room to the nearest restroom, went into the stall and started throwing up. I continued to throw up. I coughed afterwards.
Someone knocked. "Miss, you okay?" a woman asked. I flushed the toilet and came out. "I'm okay," I said. I rinsed my mouth out first, spitting it out and then washed my hands afterwards. She gave me a water bottle and I thanked her.
I took a sip of the waters and headed out of the restroom. She grabbed a chair for me. "Here, sit for a minute," she said. I sat down in the chair, sipping my water. Declan came to check on me. "You okay?" he asked.
I nodded. "I threw up after seeing Keith after so many years," I said. "Its nerves. It happens. I had nerves when I saw Natasha in the distance. It made me sick too," he said. "I paniced when I saw her confront me," I said.
I took another sip of my water. "Excuse me. He's ready to speak to you," Officer Dane said to me. "Ready to talk to him?" Declan asked. I nodded. "Will you be there?" I asked. "I'll be standing outside with Officer Danes. Agent Marsh will be in the room with you," Declan said.
I nodded. We walked back to the room, seeing Keith through the window. Declan held my hand. "Remember, I will be right here," Declan said. I nodded. He kissed my head. Agent Marsh opened the door.
I went inside the room. "Juanita Marsden, long time no see. You grown up," Keith said. "So have you. You look like Stephan Amell doppelganger," I said. "So I see your marrying my old childhood friend," he said, seeing the ring.
I covered my ring. "That's none of your business," I said. "So what have you been up to?" he asked. "I'm not here to catch up with you. I came here to talk, so talk. Why did you attack my fiance while I was away?" I asked.
"He has what I want. He does not deserve you. He will never love you as much as I did," he said. I rolled my eyes. "Bullshit. If your really loved me, you wouldn't have dumped me after you took my virginity from me. I want to know why you dumped me after you took my virginity," I said.
"I dumped you because you were on my bucket list. Once I took your virginity, I threw you away like trash," he said. I looked at him and froze. "Agent Marsh, I'm done talking to him," I said. She opened the door.
I walked out of the room. "Can we go?" I asked Declan. Declan held me as he was fuming with rage. "Let's go," Declan said. Officer Dane lead us the way out of the interrogation room. "You guys have a good day," Officer Dane said.
"Thank you," Declan said. We leave the station. The police escorted Keith to a police car as we got into Declan's car. "He can't hurt us anymore," Declan said. I nodded as sniffled, wiping my tears.
He held my hand. "You won't see him again. My lawyer will make sure of it," Declan said. I nodded. "I hope he rots there," I said. I grabbed a Kleenex to wipe my tears and blowing my nose. Declan started driving home.
