♣Waking Up In Vegas
Chapter twentyfour
Cal

My cell was unlocked by a tall, black guard.
"Callum Wright," the guy said. I nodded and stood up. My cell mate nodded to me, he knew all about Theo, and I was excited to see her again. He cuffed my hands, and locked the cell again. I was lead down the familiar path, jealous faces hiden in the shadows of the cells. I was pushed through the door, and lead out in the line out to the visitor's room. My eyes sweeped across the room; Theo wasn't there. Panic went through me - who was here to see me? I stayed silent as the names were called out, working out who was left. I heard my name be called out, and a guy stood up. His dark hair flipped to one side, covering green eyes. My handcuffs were unlocked, and I walked over to him, rubbing my wrists. Once I got to him, I sat down next to him, staring susupicously.
"Okay, who are you, and why are you here?" I asked. He sighed, and leaned on the table.
"My name is Gale Anderson and I need to talk to you," he told me. I recognised the name from the talks with Theo. I bit my lip, and stayed silent for a little longer. She had mentioned a few days ago that she still loved this guy.
"What about?" I asked, buying for time.
"You know what about," he said, still not facing me. He didn't wait for me to give the 'all clear', instead, he just started. "Okay, I know she's been here a bit in the last week, and I'm fine with that. And you might know what happened between me and her," he said. I nodded.
"She told me," I replied.
"Well, I wanna know what she said," he told me.
"I don't know if I can do that, Gale," I told him.
"Why not?"
"Because it's an invasion of privacy." Gale sighed, and put his head in his hands.
"Listen, Cal," he said. "I love her, okay? I came here because I want to know if she loves me too - and you would know that." I bit the inside of my lip, I loved her, yeah. But as my sister. And that kiss on the first day she came back here? A one off. It felt right - but so wrong. I shook my head, getting the thought to go away.
"And you want me to tell you if she loves you? Is that the only reason you're here?" I asked. He shrugged.
"I want to know more about her. She didn't tell me all that much."
I spent the next hour and a half talking about Theo with him. About everything we got up to as children; how we met; how her brain works. Before I realised, the guard yelled,
"All right! Visiting time is up!" I sighed, and waited for a guard to come and collect me.
"Okay, well, I won't be seeing you again, right?" I asked him. He raised his eyebrows.
"And why not?"
"I dunno. Because you came to Ohio to speak to me, but not to her. And yesterday, her tracker was still on - not letting her leave." I said, matter-of-factly. He nodded.
"I know... you haven't answered my question," he said.
"Which one?" I asked, as the guard who appeared cuffed my hands together.
"The one about if she loves me or not," he replied. I started to leave, but paused.
"Yeah, she does," I told him, and was led away.
