'penelope'

We were at chris' place after we left the library. I was still in shock of what happened today, but I said to my self that it was for the best

I couldn't hide it but I was happy that kolpus died. That guy was a psychopath, he killed 50 girls, why wouldn't  I be happy that he died?

Come on cut me some slack

Both me and Chris decided to got to the police and tell everything we knew about koplus and nick. We had all the evidence and clues we need...

The cassettes were still in my small bag making it difficult to hold it

"Chris? Do you have a larger bag? Like a trash bag? To put the cassettes in?" I shouted, Chris was in the bathroom taking a shower and I was waiting for him in his room

"Yeah! Open the drawer! There plenty of black trash bags!" He yelled. The water sound coming back

I nodded and opened the drawer "Its not here!" I shouted "check the closet!" He yelled

Such a messy person he is! I rolled my eyes and open his closet looking for the trash bag

I took out his shirts searching for the trash bags but instead I found something else..

A Sony xt1500 with a cassette inside.

I froze at the image. What? Is he one of them?

Is he the one who killed all these girls? Is he?? What the fuck? Silvers went down my spine, my toes curled and my mouth opened

I could belive what was happening in front of me! That's why he didn't react at all when he killed kolpus!

He is the killer! Not Nick! Carmen was right! She was right! All along! All along!

I check the cassette inside the camera 'penelope' it wrote

Fuck! Im gonna be one of his next victims! Fuck! He was planning to kill me all along! He was the killer! And I trusted him! That bastard!

I froze in my place, I couldn't move, I was so angry so sad and most of all terrified! I was hanging out with the killer all along

I was helping the killer! I-I-I-I-I was such an idiot for believing his lies and trusting him "fuck!"

Tears rolled on my checks, my vision when blurry! Fuck no! I'm not going to let him make me sad! Not in a million fucking years

I felt brave for a moment!

I took my bag and left his house. The cassettes were still inside! I could go to the police and blame him for what he did! But I won't do it alone I'll do it with nick

Poor guy! I misunderstood him, fuck.. I'm sorry.. I felt guilt and pain I have to  see nick! I have to...

I walked to the pavement looking for a taxi, I didn't know where his house was.. all i knew  was that he lived across  a supermarket call Express

I raised my hand when I saw a taxi. It stopped right in front of me. I opened the door of the back seat

"To the express supermarket please" I said and close the door, the driver nodded and started driving

Silence only silence.. nobody talked, but in my mind there was a lot of noise, voices screaming inside of me

I was angry so angry at chris! He lied to me! He made me trust him! He- he- he made me fall for him

Angry tears went down my cheeks once more, I was angry at myself for believing him "fuck him" I whispered so only I could hear it

The driver stopped "you're here!" He said, I opened my bag and gave him 5$ for the ride

I opened the door "thanks"

I stood confidently on the pavement just outside the express supermarket, as I knew that all this will come to an end today

I looked around, for nick and I saw him, across me

He was outside, in the garden watering the plants "Nick!" I yelled, his eyes looked at me with excitement "Penelope?" He shouted

I crossed the street quickly, to get to his house

"What are you doing here? I though-" He said leaving the watering can on the ground "yes I know I know and im sorry.. but I'm here to apologize! I have to tell you something, very important"

"I'm all ears" his smile widened "can we talk somewhere, a little privately?"

"Come in" he opened the door to his garden letting me in " let's go inside huh?"  I followed him, going up the stairs to his house

He opened the door with his keys, letting me get in first. What a gentleman..

A long dark hallway was the first think I saw in his house , it  lead to the living room.

A feet away were the stairs that I assume leaded to the bedrooms "let's go upstairs" he said showing me the way

He was awfully quiet and friendly. Weird?
Maybe Chris just brainwashed me so that I didn't like him. Or maybe I just misunderstood him, who knows?

I raised my shoulders and continue going up the stairs

As we reached the top floor, Nick stopped for a moment "ill get the drinks, my bedroom is second door to the right" I nodded and opened the door to his bed room.

It was nice and neat, as a guys should have...

I sat on the bed and looked around, a nice normal room. A room that a 21 years old guy should have. A big bed, a book self and a drawer with a TV on.

Finally something normal..

The door opened revealing nick with a bottle of whiskey and two glasses

He passed me the glasses as he opened the whiskey bottle. His eyes looking at mine "not too much please" I smiled

He poured a small amount of whiskey for me and a large one for him

"So what did want to tell me?" He said taking a sip

"Em.. this may sound weird" I took a deep breath "Vanessa didn't run away with her boyfriend-"
