    Bad Girls/L Word crossover….Nikki’s appeal

     

    *********************************************************************************

     

    In the Appeal Court Nikki’s case had broken for lunch. She sat in a holding cell, accompanied as she had been all day by Dana, and joined by her solicitor, Claire. The court had provided her with food, but all Nikki could do was push it around her plate. Nerves were getting the better of her, and the confidence she had displayed when leaving Larkhall that morning was long gone.

    "Miss Fairbanks, do you mind if I have a word alone with Nikki?" Claire asked.

    "No problem, I’ll be right outside"

    Dana got up and left the room. Claire sat down and waited for Nikki to look her in the eye. She didn’t speak until she knew that she had Nikki’s full attention.

    "I’m not gonna get out am I?" Nikki said eventually.

    "Try and keep positive Nikki. We’ve still got Helen to testify as to your character, and Sally-Ann, the former colleague of the man you killed. We can still do this"

    "I wish I could say I shared your optimism"

    "Nikki, listen to me" Claire placed her hand on Nikki’s arm "Nothing has happened today that we didn’t expect. The CPS were always going to try and rip you to pieces over your statement from that night. But you didn’t play into their hands, you stayed calm, which is the best we could have hoped for. And as for the old boys network, well of course they were always going to put up a fight. None of them want to admit the real character of one of their own"

    "So you really think I still stand a chance?" Nikki asked incredulously.

    "Do you really think I’d still be representing you if I didn’t?"

    Nikki raised an eyebrow.

    "Ok, don’t answer that" Claire said "but seriously Nikki, the whole thing always hinged on this afternoon anyway. So long as both of our star witnesses hold themselves together, I think we stand a very good chance of winning this"

    "I can only hope that you’re right"

    "Have I been wrong yet?"

    "I guess not" Nikki managed a half smile for the first time since they had entered the court house.

    "You just need to keep your hopes up Nikki. I can’t promise anything, but I do genuinely believe that you stand a chance. And you need to show that Judge that you believe in your case without coming across as arrogant"

    1. well im glad ure back wiv a update and im the 1st to comment.i used to follow alot of FF but most have ended now so i think im only following 2 now :(Neways i wanted to say i thoroughly enjoyed that chapter i loved it went Nikki was set free…i wonder if u will adapt the same thing wat happened wen Nikki left court???/As for Nikki sayin to Bette that she would be there for celebrations i reckon that Helen will let her leave LarkHall for the night…as thats what Nikki wants :) :)Great updat come on Bette set up your appeal then you and Tina can be happy together on the outside PPS

    2. YAH Nic’s free! I agree with C4V it was great when Nikki was released, but I hope Helen doesn’t disapear into the sunset with her like the series lol! Loving this, my only gripe is I wish you could post more often! PPVS! x

    6. 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)

    7. 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?
