Tw foul language

Bennet headed out quite early
Apparently he had to meet with this person
He said he was fine going on his own
I didn't disturb him and headed back to sleep

That was 3pm it's currently 10pm
Where is Bennet?
I texted him but it didn't go through
I tried calling him but he didn't pick up
He didn't tell me where he went
Maybe his running late and he isn't checking his phone
But he always checks his phone
This is so out of character for him

I was very much worried
Until...
I received a text from him

Bennet

Bennet: hey sorry, wasn't checking my phone

Yanfei: thank god you're still alive

Yanfei: what happened?

Bennet: phone died

Yanfei: no, what happened with the person you went to meet?

Bennet: oh

Bennet: they were a faker

Yanfei: damn, anyway, when are you coming back home

Bennet: later

Yanfei: okay see ya

Bennet: bye

_

He acted differently
He never responds with one word answers
Someone has his phone
I need to phone to police
Or maybe I should investigate this alone..?
I don't even know where Bennet is
Maybe I should start at the forest area of the park
That's a most logical place to commit a murder

I got ready and headed out toward the park
Hopefully I will find Bennet
Maybe I'm just overreacting
But this whole situation is intense
Since Bennett left at 3pm
How could he come back later if it was so late?
That doesn't make sense
Maybe I should wait
No
I must do it now

I walked toward the forest area of the park
I had my phone in my hand and was using it as a torch
I made sure to have my gun on me
I scanned around the trees and there was nothing
Well I was still on the path, someone wouldn't hide a body here
That would be just stupid

I probably would make a good murderer
Wait what am I thinking
I'm a detective
I would never do such a thing
The law is there for people to obey it, I would never go against the law

"Hey there"
I jumped and shone my light in the direction of the voice
"No need to be scared~ why are you out at this time dear~♡"
It was Ava, what was she doing here
I actually felt happy to see her
Maybe it's because she's not a psychopath
" I'm looking for my friend, wait, why are you out this late?"
My hands were shaking, I don't know why
" Well, Im out since I prefer being outside in the moonlight. I sleep whole day hehe. Anyway, about your friend, what's their name, maybe I could help ya~"
I hesitated before telling Ava anything
Should I really tell her?
Maybe she can help

"His name is Bennet"
I made sure to describe him in alot od detail
Who knows maybe Ava will find him
"Hmmm...thats sad. Hopefully you'll find him~ I wish you the best of luck~♡"
Ava seemed abit on edge when I spoke about Bennet
I wonder why
"anywayyyy wanna come over to my place! We shouldnt be outside this late or I could come over to your place, whatever you're comfortable with!♡"
Did she just invite me over to her house

"Sure. I'll come over to your house!"
I said whilst smiling warmly
"Well off we go ehe~!"
Ava grabbed my hand and lead me toward her house

It was a nice house
It wasn't too big
Ava told me that this was her parents house until they left her when she was 17
She told me she don't know what happened to them
Didn't Hu Tao kill her parents at the age of 17
Could Ava be hu tao?
Wait no, maybe it's coincidence

" Ehehe, you like my house~! Also, make sure not to look through my things. You'd find things you wouldn't want to see~♡"
Did Ava just threaten me?
" Wait, that sounds suspicious. What don't you want me to see?"
I know curiosity kills the cat but I don't care
" ehehe~ well my parents were drug dealers and I thought you would ya know, think its mine"
That sounded like a lie
She's probably telling the truth
I would've thought it belonged to her
" I see...well then let's change the topic."
I didn't like the topic of drugs and I doubt Ava would either

"Let's go to my room~♡"
She says as she grabs my hand
That sounded sexual
What does Ava want to do to me?
Maybe I'm just being weird today
My mind is very dirty

I sat on her bed and looked around
Her room seemed well kept
I just realized that she deosnt have any animals, doesn't it get lonely?
It's probably gonna be very lonely if..something happened to Bennet
Hopefully not because then I'll need to get a new roommate and we don't know who it could be

"Well~ what would you like to do~♡"
Ava said as she sat next to me
"I don't know, what do you usually do"
She has to do something else than sitting around here
This place looks pretty boring
"Most of the time I'm asleep or taking walks at night~ The city has a whole new vibe when it's dark. It's like a whole horror movie!! Anyway, would ya like to sleep over~ but there's one bed so we'll have to share~♡"
I blushed at the thought of having to share a bed with Ava
Well it sound be fine
It's not like I like girls
Plus Ava deosnt like me in that way, right?

"Well uhm okay! I just need to get my things!"
I tried my best to hide my blush but Ava probably already noticed it
"Alrighty then, want me to come with you~♡"
I wouldn't want to have Ava know my address but I don't feel safe going alone.
"Sure"

_

We were walking back, I felt like someone was watching us
Ava was holding my hand, it actually felt nice since her hand was very soft
I looked around and tried to figure out who could be watching us
"what's the matter darling~♡"
Do friends call each other darling?
"I feel like someone is watching us"
Ava didn't seem scared, she was oddly calm

"Oh don't worry, if whoever that is lays a hand on you ill make sure to do unspeakable things to them, ehe~"

Okay that's just creepy!
Ava is started to scare me
Should I actually trust her
Maybe this is normal

Footsteps neared us and a masked male appeared
" Give over your wallets!"
Was he watching us this whole time?
" No. "
Ava said bluntly
"There will be consequences if you don't!"
This make isn't even that scary
Until he pulled out a gun that is

Ava stayed silent and grabbed something out of her pocket
It was a butchers knife

Before he could react Ava had already stabbed him in his shoulder
"W-what the hell! What the fuck is wrong with you!"
He said as he ran away

"A-Ava! What was that"
Her expression was emotionless
Is she okay?
"I'm sorry you had to see that dear.. Please promise me you won't tell anyone, I was just defending us!"
Ava seemed as if she wanted to cry
I will admit I feel bad for her
"I promise I won't, I get it. He had a gun"
Wait, who has a butchers knife in their pocket?

Luckily on our way back nothing else happened
Hopefully that man didn't follow us back
But he seemed scared off
I mean I would be scared if someone  stabbed me in my shoulder

"Darling you should really go to sleep now, you've got a whole day ahead of you~♡"
Well Ava is right, but what is she going to do?
"but what about you? What are you going to do"
I had to ask, because won't she be bored
Why am I worrying about her?
"Don't worry about me~ Im usually up at this time, you seem like you sleep early. So goodnight now~♡"

Ava walked toward me
What's she going to do?

She gently pecks my lips and walks out
