Seventy-Five

NIXON'S POV

Lena's words rang in my head as I walked back to my office. Of all the reasons for Aria to leave Dave, I could never have imagined that it would be because he was responsible for her parent's death. It even hurt me the more that Lena believed I was involved.

As I entered my office, I sat on my chair and the picture frame of Dave and I sitting on my desk was in my line of sight. Staring at the picture of Dave and I smiling at the camera after our college graduation made me realize that I shouldn't blame Lena for not trusting me in that case.

If Dave was truly involved as they claim and he had told me about it, I would have been forced to keep quiet. Dave is my best friend, there was no way on earth I would sell him out knowing it would ruin his entire life and I was sure that was why he was scared to tell anyone too.

But wait, I shouldn't jump to conclusions without hearing Dave's side of the story. Even if he was responsible for their death, something must have happened.
