Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover... **COMPLETED**

Chapter 28: The Legacy

Rebekah's P.O.V
“I won't tell anyone.” I smiled, giving him a little nod.
“I guess nobody have heard of him since like.. 1993-1994?” his eyes grew even wider
“How do you know that?
-I do. Because after that he changed his name. He worked 'with you'” I said making quotes in the air. The old detective looked at me like I just went crazy.
“Matthew Williams is Jacob Coleman.” his mouth dropped open and I couldn't help but smile. He shook his head quickly then turned back to me
“How.. How can you know all that?
-It's the legacy my dad left me when he died five years earlier. You might remember him better than me. Because Jacob said himself that Williams was the one who killed him.” he frowned then looked at me.. More like analyzing me.

“My name is Rebekah Miller. My dad is dead five years earlier, so he left me a little gift that could help the real police to make them break. But I want you to not talk to anyone, because if Jacob find me I'll have the same fate as my beloved daddy.” he nodded again looking shocked.
“Re.. Rebekah? But.. Everybody thought you were dead! You were missing for so long.. Okay. We have to do this, but I'm not working anymore, so we'll need some help. What do you have?” I smiled, I knew Walter would help, he was worshiping justice! I told him about what my dad left me and all it contained.
“Well, we have to give that to the superiors, so you'll have to give all that to me.. And.. I'm sorry for your dad, he was a great officer, and one of the best man I ever met.” I nodded, yes, my dad has been the best!.. Sadly he was not there anymore.


Andy and I went home then, the next day same hour same place we would meet the old man again and I would have to thrust him enough to give him -a copy- of all the incriminatory document I had. I sighed, what if he was a traitor too?
“Rebie.. Calm down, things will work this time.” I sighed again, how can he be sure?
“Rebie.. You have been through enough, now it's time to have some happiness in you life, so we'll give him these papers, check with him which one are better and all then in a week everything will be over okay?” I smiled and gave him a small nod, after all I had nothing to loose..




The next day passed quite nicely. Melody felt better today, she was back to her old self, I mean: talking about God knows what, laughing at her own jokes and asking me thousands things about life.. But I liked her anyway. She had this way to make you realize funny thing out of random shit.. Like the way a teacher say a certain word or stupid things like that that could make you feel better about your own life. I could understand why Ethan liked her so much!
So we talked about random stuff and I avoided some topic -of course!!- but she didn't seem to care. I started to like this weird color haired girl, and even if I still couldn't thrust her totally -like everybody- I could spend some time with her without feeling uncomfortable.


Later I went to Mr. Campbell's office, I gave him my 'homework' and as usual he smiled widely..
“Rebie I'm glad you're still working, you increased a lot.. Now you see? There's a chance for the exams! You will have it!” I sighed.
“I'm not sure yet..” I'm not even sure I'll still be alive, so achieving this exam?!
“Why are you so insecure about yourself? Why do you always think you'll fail?” I sighed again, then sat in the chair facing him.
“I.. *sigh* I'm not really good at anything anymore.. You know that feeling when everybody achieve and you.. You just fail miserably? Well, I feel that way since two years now. That's one of the reason why I just gave up on school -plus the fact it's useless of course!- because I'm tired of realizing how shitty I actually am.” he gave me a small smile.


“I understand what you mean. But I don't really think anyone could play guitar as you do, or draw as you do.. You shouldn't judge yourself so hardly. You shouldn't compare yourself to others only when they're better, sometimes you out-stand them, but don't even realize it because you're too busy looking at what they do better.. But you know what Rebie? This year you will show them! You will show them you can achieve too, you can where they all think you cant! And you will achieve this exam heard me?” I couldn't help but smile. I agreed before walking off. This old man was right, so if I was still alive after giving those documents to a man who could be as corrupt as Jacob I would work my ass off for this exam and have it!


After school, Andy and I drove to the park just as the day before. When we arrived, the old man was already here, waiting.
“Did you tell anyone?” I asked as a hello, he smiled a bit and shook his head.
“You're so much like your father.. But I guess I understand why now.. He used to never thrust anyone, even in his 'friends'.. But when I see his 'best friend' was the one to kill him.. I guess you have the same blood.” I smiled back.
“Well, let's get into the real work!” he said, cheering like an excited child. I gave him my only legacy -except my old sweet shirt..- feeling my heart racing..


After about five minutes of reading, raising his eyebrows and opening and closing his mouth, the old man looked up at me with a shocked expression.
“Wow.. That's your father's job for sure! Here.. There is everything I could dream about! Jacob is a dead man now. But I'll have to make a copy and send it to the ministry and to the new detective. In a matter of days.. Jacob will fall down! Rebekah, you can feel proud of yourself young lady!” I smiled at him, remembering Mr. Campbell into his constant small smile.
“I'm really.. Really happy to know why and how your father died.. I really liked him and couldn't understand why someone would want to kill him.. Oh God! When I remember how Jacob acted like he was devastated during the funerals.. He said he was the one 'finding' him..” he said making quotes in the air.


I felt an hint of hope in my heart.. His funerals?
“You.. You know where my parents are buried?” I asked, full of hope now, if only I could just know, just cope with this pain in my chest! He slowly nodded.
“Yes it was in Los Angeles National Cemetery, I can bring you if you..-
-Yes! Please! I.. I..” I felt like crying, I would finally be able to go to their graves! I would finally properly mourn them
“Well, then here is my number, call me whenever you want I'll bring you and your boyfriend.. He seems to be really protective toward you.” he added with a wink and I blushed a bit.. Yes Andy has been pretty protective the last few days..


We said our goodbyes to Mr. Walter and drove home. I told Sammi and the BVB guys how things happened. Andy was right, I have been through enough and now it was time for some happiness! Jacob and all my hellish past would be in the past forever and I wouldn't have to suffer because of them anymore.. Five years later, it would finally be over! Andy and I went to bed and I finally asked the question I have been holding for a few days..
“Baby? Why are you so.. Protective? I can defend myself you know..” he chuckled.
“I know you can Rebie. But since you told me all you have experienced.. Well, I feel like keeping you from any kind of possible pain. I feel like preventing anyone to even touch you.. Baby.. I love you. I don't want to see you unhappy. Never. Got it?” I nodded with a huge grin. I whispered an 'I love you too' in his ear before falling asleep, in his arms, in security.


The next morning, I woke up next to an already woken up Andy. He was looking at me with a dream looking smile, like if he was looking at something wonderful.. I could spend a whole day just looking at him. But today I had school, so I reluctantly -and ignoring his groans- jumped out of bed. I did as usual and Jinxx drove me to school. As usual I walked to my locker and find a note in it. I took my books and all then walking to my first period I read the little piece of paper.. To froze in pure fear.


'You deserved to die. Just as your parents five years earlier. Now it's your turn..'


God. Please no..
