KILLER EYES

CHAPTER 26

When  I finally arrived in front of Zero's house I had to catch my breath  because I felt as if I had run a marathon and I could feel how dry my  throat was.

My clothes were wet from the rain and I'm not even talking about my hair, it was as if I just got out of the shower.

I  started knocking loudly on the door and I was hoping that someone would  open, I knocked on the door a few more times but still no one was  coming to open the door.

I  was shaking from the cold but I've come this far so I'm not turning  away now. I looked at the door handle and I pushed it down hoping that  Zero left the door unlocked even though it would be dumb of me to think  he would just simply leave the door unlocked but I was clearly wrong  because the door opened as soon as I pushed the door handle.

He's leaving his front door unlocked is he stupid ?

But  when I think about it, he's not scared of anything because even if some  stranger would enter his house he would soon realise that it wasn't a  good idea. It would be enough to look into Zero'e eyes and I can already  imagine that people would run away instantly.

My  steps headed into a big house that has 2 floors and I can imagine how  expensive this house is because everywhere I look there's elegant and  luxury items. I find this style gross for some reason but everything was  so clean and organised so the it wasn't bad at all.

When  I headed into the living room I looked around me and no one was there.  Lights were turned on but I couldn't hear anyone which gave the whole  atmosphere a creepy look.

The  house of a murderer is probably empty and the storm outside. This alone  reminds me of an escape house or horror house and the fact that I  wasn't far from the truth gave me chills all over my body.

,,Zero?'' I said quietly even though I'm sure that no one could hear me on the second floor.

,,Zero?!!'' I said more loudly but no response.

Fear  flooded my body and the feeling that my ,,Theory'' was true and that  Zero actually went to see Jasper so he could kill him and get  revenge for all those things I've done to him terrified me.

I wasn't thinking straight and with quick steps I went to the second floor that had millions of  other rooms and I opened every single one of them but I couldn't find Zero anywhere.

I  opened the last room harshly with tears on the edge and with my heart  pounding so hard because I was scared that something happened to Jasper  but to my surprise Zero was lying on his bed with his eyes closed.

I  was relieved for a moment but when I came closer to his bed he was so  pale and he looked like he was about to die. His shirt was a little  unbuttoned and my instincts pushed me forward to check his pulse and to  see if he's breathing.

He  didn't look okay but he also didn't look asleep, he was breathing  heavily and he looked like he was in lot of pain, I grabbed his forehead  just to find out that he has a really high fever.

Even  though the thought of killing him now would be easier because of his  high fever and weak body, I pushed it way even though I'm fully aware  that I shouldn't. But somehow my body pushed me forward and I walked out  of his room, looking for a bathroom.

I  was mad at myself probably the most I've ever been and every part of my  brain was telling me to leave him alone and stop caring about what's  going to happen to him. The only reason I came here was to prove that  Jasper is okay and now I'm trying to keep the killer alive and I'm  helping him with his fever.
