I had gathered a few newspaper articles and files about Vanessa's disappearance,studying them in my lunch table as I was waiting for Chris
I had a free period so I was eating my lunch and chilling at the cafeteria
Classic music in my headphones, studying carefully the articles...her parents searching for her, photos of her everywhere, her parents crying..
How could he do this to her? She is so innocent, happy and full of life.. why?? This is so unfair! I lowered my head down and grabbed the newspaped
'Vanessa was 17 years old when she suddenly disappeared, blah blah, blah...' I read the article
fuck I'm not focused.. I need a break!
I looked around not paying attention to anybody, trying to get mind off this case .. until I spotted a guy
An unfamiliar guy, holding a Sony xt1500 camera on his shoulder filming a girl
My eyes widened! I started panicking! What the fuck? What if he is the killer? Fear started filling me for head to toes!
I have to see his face! Chris can wait!
I shoved my thing in my bag and got up walking towards him in order to see his face
"Later" he said to the girl turning his back at her and leaving the camera at the table then he started walking
I followed him, fuck I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die!
He took a few turns speeding up! He must have realized that I was following him!
He took a turn and started running, with me running behind him... I took a the turn but..
He wasn't in front of me! I lost him! Fuck!
I looked around and i saw him leaning at the wall looking at me with a smirk
Fuck now I'm dead! Run! I smiled at him and stared running... fuuck fuck I'm fucked.. I'm fuckedd
I heard his foot steps and grunts..
He was behind me, I could feel his eyes piercing right through me.. he is fast..he is gonna catch me!I speed up, running into the hallway where the lockers were..
I didn't pay attention to anyone, just him.. if he catches me I'm dead!
I bumped into someone, my back falling onto the ground, fuck he is gonna catch me!
I shoved my things in my bag, I turned around my head and saw him! He was smiling, and slowing down approaching me
I got up and started running into the girls toilets, he isn't going to enter.. I'm okay
"I'm okay.. I'm okay...I'm okayy" I whispered to my self
Deep breaths.. and fast heartbeats, fuck my stamina..
I put my bag into the floor and turned the water on washing my face to calm me downI looked at the mirror and saw him hovering me
"Hello there!" He said scarring the fuck out of me "AH! oh.. hi" my heart beating faster and faster, his eyes watching mine through the mirror
A creepy and dangerous stare, telling me that I was going to die.. slowly and agonizingly
I turned around and saw him.. he was so tall, his brown eyes starring at me and his finger messing his brown-black hair
"I didn't mean to scare you! I just saw this falling from your bag!" He showed me the newspaper with Vanessa
"Oh! Yeah! Thanks!" I tried to grab the paper but he took his hand back "let's see! Oh it's Vanessa! I know her, she was my girlfriends bestfriend!" He answered
"Oh! That's-that's g-good!" I stutter "I'm assuming you're doing a reportage on her?" His eyebrows raising
"Yeah! Yeah! I-im doing a reportage on her!" I exclaimed
What the fuck I'm I saying?? Fuck?!
"Maybe you can interview me? You know we used to be close! You know me and Vanessa?"
"Oh okay! But-but.." fuck what I'm I going to do? "You don't have a camera?" He asked
"Yea! I don't have a camera permission yet! So I-"
"You could borrow mine!" He interuppt me "yeah! So if-if you want to, we could meet at the chemistry classroom tomorrow!"
"Yeah! I'm down! I'll bring the camera!" He turned to leave "oh! What's your name?" His eyes piercing me "Penelope"
"Nick" he gave his hand, I smiled and shook it
______________________________________________________________"Why would you do that? Are you out of your mind??" Chris shouted
"I'm sorry, okay? I didn't have a choice! Besides he pushed me to it!"
"Wow! Nice Penelope! Now go interview him on your own and when the time is right, say your last words to him!" He is angry, or jealous or scared I don't know anymore
"Come on Chris! I can't do this on my own! I need you! Please.." I begged him "if I go there angle with him, he'll probably kill me!"
"You deserve it!" He smiled "shut up!" I pushed him
"Now, what questions should I ask him?" He laid in his bed with a fake gun on his hand, spinning it on his finger "emm I don't know! You're the journalist here!"
I grabbed my notebook and a pencil and sat down on the carpet
"Emm.. how long have you known Vanessa? How does that sound?" I looked at him
"Okay I guess?"
"What was your relationship with Vanessa?"
"Emm.. I'll do an impression of him.. 'Nice Vanessa and I were friends until I killed her ofcourse!' Pew" he mimicked nick
"I still don't think he is the killer but anyway!" I rolled my eyes "come on don't get fooled by his baby face! Consecrate! He has a Sony xt1500, he is Vanessa's friend and he started chasing you around!"
He is right! What kind of person chases down someone because a newspaper fall down of her bag? And why did he enter the girls bathroom? He is the killer no doubt
"Yeah.. you're right" I admitted
"Penelope, promise me this.. don't get fooled of his angel face.. please this man is a psychopath! If you fall for him you will end up like Vanessa!" He warned me
Silvers went down my spine.. my breath got caught up in my throat..
