"He didn't do it."
You'd said that phrase about 200 times since Xavier's arrest. You still had scratches from fighting the police, trying to reach Xavier as they put him in chains. You were nearly charged alongside him just for that. Wednesday, Principal Weems, and the officers had watched as you sobbed and begged for his release.
"He didn't do it, he's not the monster!"
But your pleas had fallen on deaf ears. Wednesday insisted that there was evidence, that clearly Xavier was the monster in the woods. She said you were just "too blinded by meaningless feelings" to see the truth. She'd sounded so cold, so smug as your boyfriend was taken away in a straight jacket like some serial killer.
One of the detectives felt bad for your situation, seeing you as a young girl overcome by grief after being told your boyfriend was a murderous beast. So he let you in to visit Xavier in his cell.
