TW: mentions of suicide and mental health disorders.

Ever so often, I peaked over my shoulder as I made my way to the schools library. The killer visiting my home last night confirmed a scary reality for me.

He could kill me anytime he wanted to but for now he seems as if he was toying with me, so I wanted to take advantage of that and get him before he got me.

I assume that he would be expecting it so I plan to catch him off guard, I checked the time on my phone once again, grateful that I had enough time to spare before heading to doctor greens office.

Yes, I decided I was going but it's only because I want her to leave me alone. I knew how enthusiastic she could be, she would visit all of my classes and pest me until I caved.

I pushed through the library doors and quickly found a secluded table by a corner and got comfortable, I pulled out my laptop and booted it up.

The time it took to boot, took advantage of my free mind and began filling it with doubts and negative thoughts.

I should report him to the police so that they could catch him, he's expecting me Saturday isn't he?

The sound of the laptop finally booted up dragged me back to reality and brought my attention to the screen, my eyes locked on a familiar face and a surge of guilt ran through me.

It's been a while since I've heard from my dad and I know deep down that it was intentional, mom being admitted into a psych ward drew us apart but the real mess started when my brother took his own life.

I guess that's a reason why I don't want to talk to my dad, I know he worries about me because it seems mental health issues run through our mothers side of the family.

My grandmother suffered with depression, only getting worst when she had kids, my mother suffered with ASD and my brother suffered with bipolar disorder and depression.

So he walks on eggshells around me and I hate it, nothing is wrong with me, I know it and it's the reason why I'm afraid of going to the councillor because she might think otherwise.

I shook away the dark thoughts and typed my password in, my law professor gave the whole class a code to enter into the CIA site and get information to help with our assignments, wether his or another professor.

The code prompts the site that a student is trying to use it and only a certain level of information becomes available for us to access.

I went on the site and entered the code, bringing up the search bar, my fingers hovered over the keyboard as the same doubtful feeling came.

Just an outlet for my emotions.

Just like professor Norman had said, I wasn't doing anything illegal and I could actually use this information for my psychology assignment.

I typed the few letters of the killers alias and pressed search, immediately an array of information bombarded the site. These were all police reports about the murders, ranging from; killing patterns, to victim types etc and information they'd gathered on what he may look like as per my description of course, I decided not to visit those.

No indebt information about the actual murder scene were accessible which includes pictures and descriptive information about how they died, except the one I witnessed.

I clicked on the first link, clearly he prefers to go after males, they are typically the first assumption of a murderer either way, it's not quite often you hear about a female serial killer. Not that I'm being biased or anything but it's facts, most of the times it's the males.
