I heard the pitter patter of feet running down the stairs. I drop the knife to the floor, the tip almost hitting my toes. My hand stayed where it was, as if I still held the knife.
"Steven..?" Anthony spots Jess' body, staring me down. "Did you kill her?!"
Act natural. This... It wasn't your fault.
It was totally your fault. FIX IT.
"She attacked me..." I lie, forcing tears into my eyes. "She was about to stab me, but I turned the knife away from me in defense, and..." I fall to my knees.
I'm a good actor. Holy balls.
~Chilled~
I comforted Steven, rubbing his back. "It's okay, you didn't mean it."
"How do we explain that to the cops?" Anthony asks. The other one. I have been calling him Glam recently. He doesn't mind. Okay, maybe a little.
John trots down the stairs casually, with a smile on his face. "I won a game of Hide and Seek, finally-- Uh, what's going o-- Is Jess dead?!"
Steven sobs harder into my shoulder.
"Godamnit, John, shut up."
Steven grabs the knife off the floor next to him and throws it behind me, most likely at John.
"Whoa there, buddy." I pat his head. "No need to murder someone in cold blood for not liking you."
Steven's face turns bright red. "Y-Yeah, riiiight..."
There seems to be something on his mind, but I shrug it off. "Anyway, we should've probably called the cops two minutes ago."
"I did, no worries." GaLm says. "Well, lots of worry."
"So do we...lie?" Steven asks.
"No need for lying, my little Viking."
=^=^=
~Ze~
No need for lying, my little Viking.
I sat up quickly, awoken by a loud car horn.
"Fucking move!"
I was in the car with GaLm and John. They were in the front, while I had the whole backseat. But..where's Anthony?
He's right there.
Yes the other one is driving you don't have to point it out, brain.
"Where's Anthony?"
GaLm completely ignored my question, and kept driving. John looked back at me with a worried look on his face.
"Jess is for sure dead, just as an update. You fell asleep at the house, so we went to the hospital while you slept. And..." He trails off.
"And?"
"You're going to jail for murder." GaLm sighs.
"What?!"
"We're taking you to the police station."
"Wait, but I didn't--"
Face the facts, Steven. You killed Jess. Defense? You did nothing of a sort, you murdered her!
"I'm sorry."
"You murdered someone Steven."
"I'll never forgive you."
=^=^=
I sit up yet again, this time in my bed.
Another nightmare...
There was a text that kept popping up on my phone, which buzzed repeatedly on my desk. I got up and read it. As much as I didn't want to, I was frightened of what it might say.
Chilly: Hey buddy. Anthony and John are on their way to the hospital now, and I have some great news for them. I'll tell you once we are all together.
Good news?
So I did kill Jess. Well, not quite, she must still be alive!
No, that's not a good thing. She knows what I did. I lied to my friends in order to keep it a secret.
I texted back, tears appearing in my eyes.
Thanks for the update. I also have some news, but bad news.
Chilly: What is it, Steven?
Im moving back to cali
Chilly: WHAR
Chilly: WHAT*
Youll find out soon enough
My hands quivered as I sent the next text.
I love you
I jump off my bed, and start packing frantically.
A car pulls up into the driveway. Police sirens echo through the street.
A voice shouted from the street. "You're under arrest!"
I swing my backpack over my shoulder, the one I usually use for PAX. I quickly wrote three words on a piece of paper, then put it between my lips. I opened the window and leaped out, luckily landing on a bush that broke my fall. But still, ouch.
"Come out with your hands up!"
Hah, idiots--
I ran into someone while I wasn't paying attention. Someone tall.
"Why?" His voice was shaky.
"I'm sorry." I throw the piece of paper at him, and sprint down the alley.
=^=^=
~Chilled~
It was too late to say anything. I couldn't even get anything out, anyway. Steven was already gone, but I doubt he didn't bring his phone.
I stare at the message he sent me. I was driving, I didn't notice it before...
Steven: I love you
A tear ran down my cheek, I whisked it away with my palm.
I love you too
My little Viking
A figure in the distance stopped, staring at something. Steven!
Steven: Come with me
Without a second thought, I ran after him. I wrapped my arms around his waist, and snuggled into his neck.
"Anthony, do you swear you won't tell anyone?"
I hug him tighter. "I swear."
I swear, Steven. I will protect you.
