A/N: So this chapter, I felt like it was more of a comedic outlook on Kylie's home and work life so you get to know her character more. It has SOMEWHAT of a romantic twist...- well, I guess that's up to you though ;) so anyway, thanks for reading up till here readers! And I'll update as soon as I can <3 :)

Chapter Five:
An hour later Kylie was walking into the lab with a teapot and teacups for Augustus and Sebastian. Overhearing Ronny mutter under his breath "These are pretty gruesome deaths..."
"What do you mean?" Kylie couldn't help but ask as she handed Sebastian a cup of tea, returning his smile lightly. Wasn't murder in general gruesome?
Walking towards one of the table's as Ronny set down a pile of paper. Pulling out a stool and taking a seat, Kylie realised that the sheets were in fact photo's when Abby Clarkson's face came up. Watching Ronny point at one picture in particular, she saw a girl with shoulder length brown hair and dazzling brown eyes that Kylie couldn't help but wish that she also had.
Kylie's eyes were so blank and held nothing special about them, while you could see the happiness this girl had in her life just by looking into her eyes. "Hailey Jones died from slitting her wrists, and died before receiving medical help."
"Suicide?" Jared spoke unexpectedly, making Kylie jump at his suddenly booming voice in the utterly silent room; everyone else was too engrossed in thinking to say another word.
"That's what we thought at first," Augustus answered, finally looking up from his tea that he had been narrowing his eyes on in concentration for the past ten minutes, "but it has come to our attention that each death seems mysterious, and none of the girls were known to have any suicidal notions."
This time Ronny pointed at a girl with Black hair and beautiful mocha coloured skin; her chocolate eyes were wide open and honest-her smile was bright and bearing. Just glancing at the girl gave Kylie a powerful impression that the girl had a future ahead of her. A future that was cut short. "A week after Ms. Jones, Tina Lawrence was found hung in her homeroom-room 246."
"Another suicide...?" Kylie guessed, her voice coming out in a whisper of pure horror. That couldn't be right; and she couldn't understand how no one had found it fishy to begin with...
Ronny nodded, his jaw set in stone as he continued, resting his eyes on the clock that laid directly above a large bookcase, his brown eyes giving off a faraway look as he sipped his tea. "There's only one thing that's sets this off from Hailey's situation..." he murmured aloud.
"And what's that?" James's voice came from the doorway as Kylie dragged her eyes along the wall to meet his heated gaze.
"There is no swelling where the rope should have choked her."
Kylie couldn't help but ask, "So?"
"'So' there should be swelling along the baseline of the girls neck due to the amount of weight being pressed against the rope." Augustus cut in, mocking her silently as she shot a glare in his direction. "The reason why Ms Lawrence never had this impression on her neck is because she never did commit suicide."
"Look at that!" Jared suddenly cut in, "This is the first time I've ever seen you so openly explain the situation Mr Turner." Jared grinned pleasantly enough.
Watching Augustus stand up out of his seat, Kylie couldn't help but wonder what the jerk was up to now. Hadn't he made fun of her enough already? "That's only because Kylie lacks the sensibility to understand the most basic instability of things." He said plainly.
