Finding Jake seemed like the hardest thing ever. I roamed his house and usual streets and routes for his jogging since I would go with him sometimes, but no one knew where he was. His mum even said she had no clue, but if he wasn't back by sunset he would be going on a long ground.

The officer gave us a confidential number to call/text when we found him because it was getting dark and he had almost finished his shift for the day.

We came home and as soon as we stepped inside, an emotionless silence fell upon my parents and I. To be honest, emotionless was all I was feeling at the moment, no love no fright, no happiness, no hatred. I don't know what would happen to Jake if he was found guilty, but i was trying not to think that way, hoping it wouldn't turn out like that.

The deadly silence was soon cracked when mum asked the question which was all stirring our minds.

"You know, what would happen if- erm, if"

"Jake was found guilty?"

Dad had to finish her sentence, she was that concerned. I never thought a boyfriend of mine would be lived so dearly by my parents.

I left the room without an answer. I couldn't imagine a life without Jake. A life without his loving arms , the arms which were imprisoned. He was the perfect one. And even if he didn't loved me, he would never hurt my sister. Right? I shook my head vigorously, almost as if the spine chilling thoughts would shake itself away.

My feet lead my to my back garden, where I found jakes hoodie which he must've left yesterday when we were having a barbecue together. I picked it up, and a weighty object dropped onto the grass. His phone. I picked up the smashed iPhone 5s and someone was calling. It wasn't saved as a contact and I left it too long and the phone turned off. I knew Jakes password so I unlocked the phone and went to ring the number again when a text came up.

Ayy Jake my man, listen I need to talk 2 u, so seems like the cops have found out about our lil kill scene. But it's cool, I hired an actor to bail any of us out who gets caught, so just gimma a quick call or text if u need any help k man? Reply soon, u always pick up this is freaky.

I stared at the shocking text message. Ok. I couldn't assume it was Rose they were talking about, but who else would they kill? I noticed the text bubble was blue. iMessage. Shoot. He knows I've read it. I had to reply.

Hey man, err I was busy just for a sec I'm good now, yeah I'll talk to u later about the stuff. Erm, I forgot just could u tell me the name of the gurl pls? #mindblank

I waited patiently for a reply, and a fairly short text came through almost immediately.

Dude, u never use hashtags.... Wth Anyways I'm gonna have to tell u on phone, we can't risk havin it on a phone where all the evidence can be stored, I'll give u a ring hold on.

Oh shoot. Within a second Jakes phone started vibrating in my hands should I answer? Or should I leave it? If I answer, I'll have to explain who I am. If I don't, I'll have to explain why I'd don't pick up when I have the phone in my hands...

Think Valerie think. Oh god I don't know. Just as the 7th ring lead to voicemail, I slid the screen and said,

Hello.
