MAJOR TW: MURDER/POISONING/BRUTAL DEATH AND A FORM OF PEER PRESSURE IN THIS CHAPTER!

Today was the day. The day of Bree's wake. Junior had avoided me for days now. He hadn't been to school or at his house. I hadn't had the chance to truly express my condolences. That voice. It kept repeating in my head over and over that this was my fault. I was actually starting the believe it. My mom had bought me a dress for the wake. I put it on and I put my hair in a low ponytail. I put on my black formal boots and hurried to the funeral home. Waiting for me outside was Jake and Lexy.

"Hey guys how is Devon?" I had not spoken to him since his moms death.
"He's hurt as to be expected." Jake wiped a tear.
"What about Junior?" I looked at Lexy.
"He's taking this really hard." Lexy looked into the room.
"I have to go." I walked to Junior.
"Junior before you get mad I'm sorry. I know what I said was not cool. You didn't need to hear that. I just want to express my condolences for you." I tired to hug him but he pushed me away.
"Lia please leave me alone." He crossed his arms. I ran out the door.
"Lia give him time." Devon was standing outside the door now.
"I know. Devon I'm so sorry." I hugged him.
"Okay we can meet at Lexy's house and stop the doll." Jake rushed into the plan.
"Jake. We need a break. Devon and Junior lost someone we can't do this." Lexy looked at Devon and hugged him.
"Lexy's right Jake. Everyone needs to take a break." I looked towards the building.
"I need to stop Chucky before he hurts anyone else." Jake looked at all of us.
"We know but we can't do anything. We are just kids." I looked back at the group.
"Maybe but we are strong. Devon you and I-" Devon cut Jake off.
"You and I are not good for each other. I made a mistake when I kissed you Jake. We are nothing." Devon looked away.
"Lia!" Junior ran over to me.
"Junior?" I turned to face him.
"My life my perfect until you came into it. This is all your fault." Junior was angry.
"How is it all my fault." I pushed Jake away.
"You are my bad luck charm! Without you I am sure non of this would have happened. You ruined everything!" Junior was furious.
"Hey don't talk to her like that dude!" Jake jumped in front of me.
"Jake we were fine until you had to throw yourself into our home." Junior punched Jake.
"JUNIOR!" Logan yelled over as Junior began to walk away.

A red car pulled up to the funeral home. Logan seemed to not know the person in the car. I looked over to Junior who was standing outside of the building. A woman in a black dress stepped out of the car and walked over the Logan. She whispered something into his ear and then kissed him. Junior was now even more furious. He ran into the funeral home. I left before anything else could happen. What Junior had said hurt me. I didn't tell anyone I was leaving and I just went home.

When I arrived home a car was outside my house. A man I had never seen before was standing there.

"Hello you must be Lia! I am officer Gian! I am new to Hackensack." He smiled.
"Hello." I rolled my eyes.
"May I enter your home?" Suddenly I got an idea.
"Yes of course! So sorry for the way I behaved! I just got home from a funeral." I tried sucking up.
"I am so sorry. Anyway I just have a few questions about Detective Evans!" He sat down at the table.
"Okay but let me get a glass of water!" I walked into the kitchen to think of a plan.

I knew what I was about to do what probably awful but I couldn't help myself. I had this overwhelming urge to do it and I couldn't seem to push the urge back. The voice kept repeating to do it and that if I did it Junior would forgive me. I filled a glass with water and I filled a second one with water as well. I looked through the cabinets and found my fathers rat poison. I poured a decent amount into the glass of water and I walked back to the room.

"So sorry I poured you a glass too I hope you don't mind." I handed the officer the glass of water.
"Why thank you! Anyway let's get to the questions." He took a sip of his water.
