+Chapter Nine+
"Ok Mr. Bass, with the info we got we
will be able to reopen the case in thirty days," the police told him.
"Thirty days? Why can't you do anything now?" urgency was heard in
Lance's southern accented voice, "you can't just let her go free for those
30 days while my friends rot away locked up."
"I'm sorry," the police talked to him, "but we can't take action
without a fair trial."
"Ok," Lance looked down sadly, "could I at least go talk to
Justin?"
"Sure, I'll show you to the cells," The officer stood up.
Lance followed him to a locked up place. He opened the door for Lance.
"Thank you," Lance went into the room and saw another cop posted
there.
"Are you here to see someone?" the police eyed him.
"Yea," Lance walked up to the desk, "I'm here to see Justin
Timberlake."
"Sure," the cop searched through some papers, "he should be in
the fifth cell to your right."
"Thank you," Lance walked down the aisle of cells. He looked at all
the prisoners, some of them making remarks at him. He looked over and saw Justin
in his own world playing with one of his sneakers. He walked up the cell and
grabbed onto the bars.
"Hey Curly, still loose yourself I see," Lance tried to not start off
with tension.
Justin looked up in surprise, "what are you doing here?" He ran up to
the bars.
"I remember what happened. You're going to be free," Lance looked at
the excitement appear on Justin's face.
"That's what you think," Justin and Lance looked sideways to see
Danielle standing there.
"Yes, I do, so you better enjoy your freedom while you can," Lance
said coldly to her.
"Oh poor Lance. See, you'll tell them your story, then I'll tell them mine
and tell them you're in denial," she walked up to Lance and touched his
face.
Lance backed up out of her reach, "don't touch me you raving lunatic."
"Oh, bitter now aren't we," Danielle looked at him.
"Go away, no one likes you," Justin was glaring at her.
"I guess I'll have to," she looked at Lance, "and you should be
careful."
She turned around and started to walk away. Lance started to follow her,
preparing to punch her.
"Lance!" Justin shouted as Lance stopped and turned around,
"don't do it."
Lance looked over at Danielle trying to hold himself back. He looked back at
Justin who was shaking his head. He watched as she walked out the door.
"I'm lucky you stopped me," Lance pointed at Justin, "or who
knows what."
"Yea," Justin shuffled his feet, "but be careful. Who knows what
she's capable of."
"I know, I'll be careful," Lance looked over at the door," I
should go see JC."
"Go tell him the news. I bet he's bored out of his mind since he can't
contact anyone," Justin joked.
"Lance laughed, "Oh yea! You know how he gets when he gets
bored."
"Yea. Check your car out before you drive," Justin spoke seriously.
"I will. I'll come back tomorrow. Bye."
"Bye," Justin watched Lance walk out the door.
