Fanon:Bella's Secrets/Back Into The Scenes

Back Into The Scenes
Drake got his coat and hat and left the building with Ridge. Drake still didn't trust Don. There was something about him that made Drake wonder. When Drake and Ridge arrived, they saw the whole public there, along with the policemen blocking out the people. "I guess they told them," Drake said to Ridge in a quiet tone. Ridge nodded. The policeman grabbed a megaphone, and then said, "People of Riverview, please step away from the area! We're handling the crime scene. Do not panic, and go back home. Thank you." The people walked away, and then Drake and Ridge made their way to the policemen. "Nice little speech, Officer Bryan." Bryan laughed, and then made his way over to the Detectives.

"Glad you find this amusing, because I sure don't," Officer Bryan said. Drake then asked, "We heard there is an interview with Cassandra Goth on the papers. Can I check it out?" "Sure. I thought you read the news today. I'm surprised you didn't see it." Officer Bryan said. Bryan handed a copy of the newspaper over to Ridge.

''Following the death of local celebrity Bella Goth, news writer Nick Dominy was allowed to interview the victim's daughter, Cassandra. When asked about how she felt about the murder, Cassandra replied, "I can't belive someone would do this! Who would rob the world of such a great person? She watched out for us all. My fiance, Don Lothario, would never have killed her. He was so helpful to us, and he still is, no matter what people think. My father--"''

They were cut off by a shriek as what Ridge had read aloud sank in on her. "Fiance!?" she exclaimed. "Yep. Fiance." Drake replied in an oddly content way. "That must be a typo!" Ridge wailed. "No, it isn't a typo. It's all in print. Look..." Drake pointed at the words. As she was reading it, her hands got tighter, until she dropped the paper on the floor out of rage. "That ****** Fool! I hate him!" Ridge exclaimed. "Clam down! Clam down! Now, I knew there was something fishy about him. Hes a cheater." Drake said. In just a few moments, Ridge broke down crying. Drake then went to her, and hugged her, and then saying into her ear, "It's okay... We have to get back to work. We have to find out who murdered Bella..." Ridge got up, wiped her tears, and started to act professional again, and then said, "Okay, where should we go next, Drake?"
