When The Sky Falls - Book 2, N. Y. [100 books to read .txt] 📗

found out. With the help of Alex, my friend." I say.

 

Lauren encouraged me with a nod to continue.

 

"You see what happens when you mess with the wrong person, you face the consequences. People can go to jail, for stalking. Although the time is temporary, I don't want to see you back here. And Lauren and Vanessa will make sure of it."

 

"You're out of here," Lauren spills towards Sara.

 

"And um, your resume? You faked it for the internship, right?" I said.

 

 

Sara hestitantly wants to nod her head, but she keeps it still at the sight of Kyle.

 

Everyone, including Kyle looked upset and betrayed.

 

"You can't do this to me. I have a life, this is my job. Kyle you have to believe me!!" she yelled.

 

 

Kyle looked away and then disappeared behind the crowd of employees to leave the building.

 

Everyone chanted on for Sara to leave, while I stood there, basking in my glory for a minute.

 

 

"No please, I can explain!!" she yelled over everyone.

 

But before Sara could say something else, they took her away. 

 

 

Seeing Sara being taken away, left a very good feeling inside and for Lauren, Vanessa and Alex.

 

And me.

 

"Well done. We did it and Sara's finally out of here." Lauren said.

 

"No coming back." Vanessa repleid.

 

 

"You did a good job. Knowing that we'd all work together to expose her." Lauren said.

 

She puts a hand to my shoulder, then walks to her office.

 

Vanessa does the same, before walking off to her office.

 

 

Alex came up behind me.

 

"I'm so proud of you Elle, you did it. And it seems like my work here is done." Alex said, walking to the glass doors.

 

 

"Wait? you're leaiving?" I asked.

 

"No, i'm not leaving, i'm just laying low here until...I go back to Paris. Soon." Alex says, before finally leaving.

 

 

I texted her.

 

"Wait, what about working for Lauren and Vanessa behind my back?"

 

"I did it for you, and i'm sorry. I should of told you. But I didn't want you to see me go yet." 

 

She replies.

 

 

"Why didn't you tell me?" I said.

 

Looking up to peer in Alex's eyes again, she doesn't appear again.

 

"Because I wanted to protect you."

 

 

The final text.

 

Lunch was quiet, too quiet.

 

"Well there goes our day. Finding out the Sara is a stalker, not only that but your stalker? Weird, and she hung out with us." Rikki replies.

 

"That makes it weirder." Marybella comments.

 

"I'm sorry Elle." Bella says towards me.

 

 

Sara was taken away and give an assortment of time for stalking.

 

And I was a hero to that exposed her to everyone.

 

But she won't be working here anymore.

 

 

If it wasn't for Lauren, Vanessa and Alex, I wouldn't be standing here finally putting an end to this.

 

 

Just then, after returning to work from lunch, Ruby came in.

 

"Elle, I saw what you did to Sara and that was ungrateful of you."

 

 

My face signficantly dropped.

 

Ruby's expression was upset.

 

"Ruby, it wasn't ungrateful. Sara had something planned for me, with the stalking and everything. I'm sure you saw the clip, she stalked me and tried to ruin me." I said to her.

 

 

"Yeah, well at least she'll go to jail knowing her boss put her there." Ruby said.

 

"I'm sorry Ruby, but it was for the best. I can't continue to work with someone who's obssesed with me. It was for the best. For you and me even, nobody wants to work with a stalker."

 

"Not, but if you just understand where she's coming from. Then you might, that she's a good person. Outside from her flaws." Ruby quickly replies.

 

I sighed.

 

"If she was still working here, you wouldn't see me anymore, right? It was clear from the beginning that stalking could have led to her hurting me or worse. Wishing death on me. I did a thing. And now it's over."

 

 

"You should have given her a chance, to come clean about it." Ruby said, then left.

 

 

I didn't mean to let her down, but I finally got Sara off my back with no worries this time.

 

And more important things for me to work on, await.. Like my life, my friends.

 

 

I'll have to call Kyle and tell him about my whole plan, before he breaks into an arguement with me.

 

I didn't think that I would upset people outside of my circle.

 

I had to put Sara to a stop, before anything bad happened...to me.

 

 

When I called Kyle after leaving work, Kyle's phone went straight to voicemail.

 

"Hey Kyle, this is Elle. I want to say that i'm sorry for locking up Sara. But you have to listen to me, she had something planned for me before this all happened and trust me. When you see the real Sara, you'll know she played you too this whole time. She's not some innocent girl you found and fell in love with. Don't trust her and don't believe anything she says."

 

 

I pressed the end call button and went to get inside my car.

 

 

"Hey Elle!" Kyle yelled from behind me.

 

"Kyle?" I said looking at him.

 

 

He's pants as he runs over to me.

 

"I don't know why you locked up Sara or called the cops on her, but at least I want to hear why."

 

 

Just then, he heard his phone ring.

 

"Hey, you left me a message." he said looking down.

 

 

He put his phone up to his ear and listened.

 

I swallowed hard. Waiting for my nervousness to kick up.

 

I overheard the voicemail he was listening t,o then he started to look fustrated.

 

 

"I thought you were gonna explain the whole thing to me, but it seems like you from a second said it all." he walked away afterwards.

 

 

"Kyle, wait!" I said.

 

 

He left before he could hear me yell for him again.

 

"Why is everyone mad at me, Sara's gone now." I say aloud, to myself.

 

 

I turned around to my car, when someone popped up in my view.

 

 

"Hello, the name's Craig. Nice to meet you."

 

The guy who was in front of me looked sketchy, I had a bad feeling.

 

He had brown spikey hair and wore worn out clothing.

 

 

"Who are you?" I asked.

 

"I'm Craig, i'm here to sign you a good deal. Recommened by a friend of yours."

 

"How?" I asked.  

 

"If you sign this paper right here, we'll get you free coverage over you home when you're gone." he said smiling.

 

He pointed out a piece of paper to me.

 

 

"Hold on, I don't even know who you are. And which friend?" I said.

 

"The on you normally talk too. Sara, she asked me to tell you to sign this paper. She got a good deal with us and wanted to recommend you." he says.

 

 

"How do I know it's Sara and not a sketchy person like you?" I said, narrowing my eyes.

 

"If you sign it, i'll have full approval to take care of your home and make sure that Sara never comes back ever, under my circumstance. She had to send this to you against her will." he said.

 

 

This Craig dude was convincing, but I wasn't fully convinced.

 

"Well, I don't trust you." I said back.

 

"Sorry to hear that, but if you sign this contract, i'll protect your home before and whenever Sara gets out of jail. So be prepared, unless you want Sara spying on you again." he said.

 

 

"Alright fine, if this gurantee's i'll be safe from Sara again, i'll sign it." I said.

 

"Good." Craig said.

 

Anything to get rid of him.

 

 

I signed the paper and he left right then and there.

 

"God, what a creep." I said, before heading home.

 

 --

 

Sara's P.O.V

 

 

After seeing the evidence and clips of me talking about Elle, I was in a daze.

  

I can't believe she had enough evidence to put me in jail. And before I get to put her in here.

 

 

"Hello." I heard a familiar voice coming from the hall.

 

I turned abruptly.

 

"Guess who came today?" Craig said.

 

 

"What do you want, Craig?" I asked.

 

I sat down on one of the rows of chairs, at the police station.

 

 "I'm here to tell you that everything is going as planned, just stay in jail until we can bail you out." he said, sitting down in a seat across from me.

 

 

"What? stay in jail?!" I yelled back.

 

I showed him the hand cuffs on my wrists. They made red circles around me.

 

Clearly, these cops need to upgrade their hand cuffs.

 

 

"Pipe down missy, it's fine. The boss and I are gonna bail you out when it's time. Plus, I have Elle's signature. So she'll have restriction to see everyone she knows when she hits gets put in." Craig said, with a smile on his face.

 

 

"How's that gonna help me, i'm in jail!!" I yelled, trying to break free from being cuffed.

 

"Don't worry, we have everything under control. Before she walks down that aisle to announce her blog to the media, it'll be our go time. No turning back and we finally get to finish the investigation. This is overall the longest we went before getting one of our agents caught. So keep up the good work Sara." Craig said.

 

 

"But i'm in jail. What am I suppose to do?" I replied.

 

"Have fun, and don't worry. She'll be here sooner before you get out."

 

Craig left, laughing like an manically.

 

 

I couldn't believe it.

 

 

I'm already going crazy, i'm even talking to myself to keep calm.

 

 

After a long time of waiting, my name was called.

 

The officer pulled me towards a doorway, where my cell was for the temporary time I had here.

 

 

"I may be locked up in jail, but pretty soon Elle's gonna be in my place." I said.

 

The officer pulled me inside my cell.

 

 

Think again Elle, before you kill someone. Because i'm out to get you.

 

 

I felt like I was starting to go mindless.

 

All the blank walls and cell mates, already bullying me.

 

 

I miss Kyle and I want him to save me from here, but there's nothing I can do.

 

"You're gonna be here for a while." said an officer.

 

 

"Great." I said slouching on the bench in my cell.

 

 

Elle's gonna pay when i'm out of here.

 

 

Just then an officer came by my cell. 

 

"Alright, Sara you're free to go. Make the right choice and don't stalk people."

 

"What?" I yelled.

 

"Somebody bailed you out early, and now you're free to go."

 

 

I smiled in eagerness. I wonder who it is?

 

But now, I have to fix my plan for putting Elle in jail.

 

She deserves to be put there for a reason. And she'll surely pay for what she did.

 

Chapter Seventeen: The Blackprint

 

The next morning, I went down to the station on the other side of New York, to research up some facts about Elle and her case.

 

I had prepared to sit down.

 

Just then, the boss came in.

 

 

Everyone sat at their desks and so did I.

 

"Alright, we are officially getting somewhere on Ms. Elle Woods Case. Turn your chairs to the visi-screen."

 

 

We all turned. As we looked up to see her profile and documents on the visi-screen.

 

I had to admit, it felt good, being able to come back here. Even after being locked up for nearly 24 hours yesterday.

 

The boss pointed at the board with a ruler and looks to us.

 

 

"This is Elle. Our good private investigator, Walker, was revealed by Elle. Sara had to go to jail for a bit, but at least she's back out now." he said.

 

 

The rest of the P.I. gang, silently cheered for me.

 

"Settle down, we're back at work. Not here to party." he replied.

 

 

Everyone went quiet, turning our attention to him.

 

He clicked to show the next slide.

 

"We've been tracking Elle's every move, since she settled down in Manhattan in New York this past year."

 

 

 

"We have recovered some old police forms from back when she used to live in Rosewood, a town in Georgia."
