Locked Up 20
"Not unless it’s on the other side of the visiting table!" Julie J added.
"Got it Julies" Nikki replied with a laugh.
Bette waited for the Julies to give their final instructions before meeting Nikki’s gaze. She smiled and the two women moved together to embrace one another.
"Good luck Nik, and thank you for everything" Bette said softly.
"I’ll be seeing you mate. It’s my birthday coming up and you and Tina are top of my guest list" Nikki whispered back.
Bette laughed softly "A girl can dream huh?"
Nikki stepped back and clasped Bette’s hand "You’ll be there"
Unspoken words were exchanged between the two women before Officer Fairbanks nudged Nikki in the direction of the wing gate. There were just two more good byes to be said.
"Nikki…"
The inmate smiled as one of her preferred officers approached her.
"Miss Kennard" she grinned "I hope next time I see you it’ll be on a more level playing field"
Tina rolled her eyes, and Nikki winked at her.
The officer reached out her hand to shake Nikki’s "Best of luck Nikki"
"Thank you"
There was one final face waiting for her by the wing exit. For a women who normally appeared so confident and self-assured, Nikki could see a trace of fear in the young women’s eyes.
"Hey Shane" she said softly.
"Hey Nik" Shane bit her lip "I just wanted to wish you all the best"
"Come here" Nikki pulled her into a hug "You take care of yourself kiddo"
"I will. But please don’t forget about me!"
Nikki laughed softly "Of course I won’t. And who knows, I could be back here before the day’s over!"
"Don’t you dare be walking back in here! Or I’ll be forced to kick your arse"
Both women laughed.
"Let’s hope you don’t get the chance eh?" Nikki grinned.
The two women embraced again and held each other for several moments, neither one wanting to get overly emotional infront the entire wing, but both wanting to convey their gratitude for the others support throughout their time in Larkhall.
"Come on Nikki, it’s time to go" Dana encouraged her along.
Nikki took one final look at the place that had been her home for the last three years, and silently prayed that she would never have to come back. To know that she was so close to freedom, and then be returned to Larkhall, would almost be too much to bear. But she had to think positively, and tried to calm herself with thoughts of the future. As she walked out of the gate to a chorus of cheers, she focused her eyes forwards and walked confidently towards the waiting car.

We got Bette,Alice and Shane. so glad that Nikki is free, thanks
i really loved that episode in season 3 when Nikki was released….now, let’s see what Bette is going to do
We truly enjoyed this chapter. Nikki’s release was certainly good news and brings hope for Bette to appeal. Tina will certainly find a way to encourage Bette to do that. We never had the chance to watch the show as it was never broadcasted in Mexico, but your story has certainly hooked us. Thanks for sharing it with us. PPS Lucero & Marsha (JC’s Salsa Aunties)
Alright, Nikki is a free woman. What is Bette hiding from and why does she fear finding out who set her up and why? What now happens to Nikki and Helen?

Glad that Nikki is released…I don’t watch the real show but I am enjoying your story. pps
