You shouldn't have done this | (Yantao Modern Au)

I was bored out of my mind
We had no leads in the case
I tried asking them how hu tao looked but none of them gave me answers
They seemed scared..?
Scared of what..?
This is very odd..
When I asked zhongli all he could tell me is that she's brunette who loves wearing black
Ava was a brunette who loves wearing black
But it can't be her right?
She's too cute to be a murderer
Wait what am I saying?
Murderers can be cute
Plus, its just pure coincidence
Black is a color I also like wearing

"Bennet, can murderers be cute?"
I asked that out of nowhere
"I think so, wait why? You have a crush on Ted bundy or something..?"
I stared at Bennet with a shocked look, why Ted bundy?
"Ew no. I was just asking"
Bennet put a hand over his mouth and giggled
"Just teasing~ do you even have a crush?"
I tensed up and blushed
"Ill take that as a yes~ Who's the lucky man?"
The first person who came to my mind was ava
Why her..?
Do I actually like her..?
She will be fine forever
Wait what am I thinking..

" Bennet I like no-body, I'm not interested in any guys"
Without skipping a beat he said
"Ohoho sureee~ don't lie! I know you like that Ava girl"
Fuck you Bennet.
"No I don't"
I don't like ava
I don't like her
I won't
I don't like her cute face..
Ugh..
I can't resist..

"Mkayy we'll see about that~"
Shut up Bennet.
"Ugh. We should get back to work"
I say as I look away from him
"Random but, what would you do if I liked you?"
What the hell!
"Eh— I'd probably be confused. I don't see myself dating a junior like you"
Did I just reject him?
"Oh.. I see! Haha, like I'd like you!"
That laugh sounded so fake
"But is there atleast a possibility that you'll take me?"
He continued
"I don't know maybe. I'm not that desperate"
I responded calmly
" I like you"
Bennet said whilst blushing
"I... Like you too"
I blushed heavily
Is this seriously happening?
Were becoming more that friends..
"let's be.. Best friends"
I knew this was coming..
I finnaly have a best friend!
"Yes!"
Bennet smiled warmly and I returned the smile

For some reason I felt like I was being watched..
I don't know why but I felt a pair of eyes watching me
Bennet left me alone
He went to hang out with his friends
I was freaked out but I didn't let it get the best of me
I was in an apartment afterall
Who could be watching me?

I had nothing to do so I decided to clean the apartment
It would be me and my thoughts for the rest of the day
Should I be happy
Or shouldnt I
I was extremely happy since I had my first best friend
It sounds weird but I wasn't really close to anyone
Maybe Ava is a promising friend
Why can't she get out of my mind
She's always in my mind....
Why do I always think about her?
Do I like her..?

The feeling of someone watching me became very intense
It was to the point where I would peak our my shoulder ever few seconds
I shouldnt be this scared
Who could be watching me..?
Maybe I should just ignore it
But I can't..
I have a gun in my pocket yet I was still scared

Shivers ran down my spine as I heard something
I took my gun out of my pocket
Hand on the trigger I investigated the apartment
No one was there
Nothing was disturbed
Yet it sounded as if something broken
Like a glass
Yet there was no glass anywhere
I double checked and still nothing
I just rubbed it off and decided to go for a walk

I had nothing else to do
Maybe this walk could spark an idea for the case
Or maybe not
But a walk will be refreshing

I got ready and headed out of the apartment
I made sure to grab my notebook just incase I had any sudden discoverys
Which probably wouldn't happen but just incase

I headed toward the park and took a walk
I made sure to look at everyone to see what how they looked
Maybe I could find a brunette who loves wearing black
I probably seemed creepy
But I don't care..

Soon enough I ended up in the forest area of the park
I have no idea how I got here
I wasn't even heading in this direction
I continued walking through it
Maybe I'd find something
It was a long stretch of forest but eventually it has an end which leads to more of the park

I heard people talking
But it sounded like murmurs
When I tried get closer
It fell silent
Birds were still heard
Crickets chirped
But the voices fell silent
Do they know that I'm here

Whatever
I just decided to walk back home
Today was boring and uneventful
Maybe tomorrow won't be the same

"We need a plan to take him out. Will you help me?"
He gazed towards me, he saw my motives behind it
"sure."
We were about to discuss the plan further when I heard someone walking toward us
We quickly fell silent until they walked away
