George was dead. Right before our eyes. His lifeless body lying on the ground.
"Oh my god what do we do!?!?" Riley panics. "Do we hide the body? Or would that make us look suspicious? What do we do???"
"Well, staying calm is the first step and no we're not hiding the body that would make us look like killers which, I know some of us aren't. We need to call the police. I think I have Detective Andrews' card that she gave me after the questioning. I'll call her and see if she can help us out."
I called Detective Andrews and she said "I'm on my way." Donna, Kamrin, Riley, and I wait calmly for her to arrive.
***
Out of nowhere, Riley takes off running and mumbling stuff under her breath. Nobody chases after her this time because
One: We're in the middle of a crime scene and that would probably get us arrested if we left.
And
Two: Riley has always been crazy so no one really wanted to chase after her anyways.
***
Detective Andrews and her partner Detective Anderson rush over to the crime scene with a couple of other officers.
"What exactly happened?" Detective Andrews asks. "And are you girls okay?"
"We're okay, there was another girl here Riley Linsdale. She ran off somewhere and we're not sure where or why she ran off." I told Detective Andrews. "Riley also broke into my house earlier today. After questioning specifically, she was acting strange."
"The body was lying here when we came outside." Kamrin explains to Detective Andrews.
"Okay, thank you for answering those questions. I'll have Detective Anderson see if he can find Riley." Detective Andrews says. "You guys should probably go somewhere safe and we'll call you to let you know what happens."
We all agree and get into Kamrin's car and head back over to my house to get Stephanie's phone.
***
The car approaches a stop light and Ronnie calls.
"Are you guys okay? I heard what happened. Is George really dead?" Ronnie asks.
"Yeah, he is. Riley was at the crime scene too but she was being weird. Weirder than normal, almost psychotic." Kamrin explained. "Anyways, we're going to Lily's house to get some things and then we're probably going to stay at my house for the night."
"Why don't you guys just stay at my house?" It's far away from the crime scenes, the killer won't expect you to hide out there, and I'll be able to protect you Kamrin." Ronnie says. "Donna and Lily can defend themselves."
Kamrin laughs and agrees to his offer.
***
We get to my house and since the door's lock was broken we just walked right in. I go up stairs and search for Stephanie's phone while Kamrin looks down stairs and this time Donna is standing watch just to make sure nothing happens.
'Where would she hide her phone? It couldn't have been somewhere very secretive because she wasn't very bright. Everyone knew that.' I think to myself.
After I search my nightstand and closet, I check under my bed and there it is.
I hurry down the stairs to tell Kamrin and Donna.
"Guys I found it." I say.
"Thank god, does anyone remember her password?" Kamrin asks.
"I don't but Marcus might." I tell them. "She would always give him the new password whenever she would change it."
***
Kamrin, Donna, and I all walk out of my house, get in Kamrin's car and she starts to drive to Ronnie's house. Kamrin texts Ronnie to let him know we're on our way and after a long somewhat quiet drive, we made it to Ronnie's house.
Ronnie meets us outside of his house and opens the door for Kamrin.
We all gather around in the living room where Marcus is sitting on the couch.
"I'm guessing you guys already heard what happened to George." Marcus says. "I wonder who did it? Who kill another person?"
"I don't know but, I'm glad you're alright Kamrin." Ronnie says as he takes Kamrin's hand and places it in his.
"Anyways." Donna says moving away from the clearly happy couple. "I'm going to go and possibly find something to eat."
"I'll come with you." I say following Donna into the kitchen.
Donna starts to rummage through the kitchen looking for something to eat while I sit down in one of the chairs while Steph's phone charges.
Donna walks over from the pantry and sits down next to me, eating her Pop Tart.
"Did you figure out her password yet?" Donna asks.
"No, not yet. I should ask Marcus about it." I reply as I walk out of the kitchen back into the living room.
"Hey, do you remember Steph's password by chance?" I ask as I walk towards the couch.
"I think, why do you ask?" Marcus replies.
"No reason, just curious." I say hiding Steph's phone in my back pocket.
"Hmmm, well I think it was 031306 which conveniently was also her birthday I believe."
"Okay, thanks."
***
I went back into the kitchen and tried the password I got from Marcus and to my surprise it worked. I open up her messages to see if I could find anything that might have led to her death.
I read all the texts between her and other guys that she probably shouldn't have been texting, arguments that happened between her and Ronnie, texts between her and George too. Then, I stumble upon a contact.
Toby's contact.
I start to feel nauseous. Then I start to read the messages and with each sentence I feel even more sick to my stomach.
She somehow got his number and she was flirting with him, sending him pictures, trying seduce him and get him to break up with me and date her horny, slutty, filthy, bitchy ass.
I know that I wanted that selfish bitch dead before but now, let's just say that I'm glad she's rotting in the pits of hell where she belongs. She had no problem trying to seduce my ex-boyfriend and the worst part is, I don't think he did anything to stop her. It sure doesn't seem like it at least.
I turn off the phone and go outside. I'm not surprised that she would do something like that but, it still hurts to know that my ex-boyfriend was being seductively manipulated by a whore who I sadly considered a friend. Especially since she knew that I still had feeling for him even after we broke up.
I walk further away from the house then I feel a hand on my shoulder.
I immediately turn around and see that it's Donna.
"God Donna, you scared the shit out of me." I tell her as I continue walking
"Well, just imagine if it wasn't me and it was THE KILLER." Donna says with a laugh. "Are you okay? I saw the texts."
"Yeah, I'm okay." I say half telling the truth like I usually do when it comes to my emotions.
***
Donna and I turn back towards Ronnie's house because it's pitch black outside when I get a call from Detective Andrews.
"We found Riley...but,...she-she's dead."
