SAINT, THE "trustworthy" friend was dead. his chest no longer rose with every breath. his eyes held no light in them, instead it held nothing. just darkness.

the weather had took a drastic change, the sun was blocked by dark grey clouds, and rain began to fall, making the light pavement a grey ish color.

was it a sign? did saint dying, leave a mark on the world? no. that couldn't be it.

you see, nobody truly gave a fuck that he was dead. not mekhi, not aurora, nobody.

aurora wasn't even aware of his death. mekhi had kept it a secret, thinking it was gonna help the pregnant lady not stress as much.

aside from that, mekhi didn't even know how to feel about it himself. was he hurt? happy? his thoughts and emotions were all over the place.

who was the first to know about saint? ddot's closest friend- notti. currently he walked down the street, heading towards the corner store with his girlfriend eva.

"it's mad brick." notti ran his arms down his arms, the thick jacket he had on not helping with the harsh winds that blew. eva rolled her eyes at her boyfriend, "mad brick? ethan, you don't talk like that."

"mmcht yes i do."

"no you don't." eva challenged. she knew notti had just recently started saying 'brick' after hearing it on tiktok from a skit.

"bro movin on, ian hear from aurora or ddot." notti announced, blowing into his hands. "they actin weird." eva agreed. "i texted rory, and she ignored me!"

the ex couple had completely ignored every one of their friends, not on purpose but it was just a natural reaction. how could they possibly tell they friends aurora's pregnant?

"she probably pregnant." notti nonchalantly shrugged, not noticing eva's shocked look. "WHAT?! aurora is pregnant?!"

"probably." notti emphasized, snickering at his girlfriends excited face.

"too cold for this shit." eva sighed, looking around. as they walked, notti took the wrapper of the previous chocolate bar he had eaten and threw it in the trash can that sat at the end of the dark alley.

he heard a can shake & raised a brow, but didn't question. quickly tossing his trash into the can, and putting the lid back on, he interlocked his hands with eva again-ready to continue walking.

but a sound stopped them. it wasn't the sound of a rattling can, nor was it the sound of two raccoons fighting over scraps. it was quiet, but both teens heard it very clearly.

a tiny voice whispered from within the dark alley, "help." the tone was shaky, holding the emotion of fear.

"h-help." the voice called out, eva dragged notti into the alley, ignoring his protests. he had his gun, if anything went down, notti had it.

notti's eyes widened once he seen the familiar friend of mekhi and aurora's. saint. he laid out on the floor, a tremendous amount of blood seeping from a unknown wound.

he coughed, blood spewing out from in between his lips. the teens flinched, stepping back hurriedly to avoid the blood.

"saint?" notti looked around, wondering if this was a set up. where were the cameras?
