Hot killer's Secrets

Chapter 1: Back to School

"Give me your books," Collin said as he held the car door open for me.

I learned when we were kids that even if Collin sounds rude, doesn't mean he is.

"Thank you " I said giving them to him smiling.

We walked into school and everyone was staring instantly.

Maybe we shouldn't have came back already.

I looked up at him as he didn't seem bothered by anyone.

When he was 9 years old his parents found out he was a psychopath by 3 different doctors and it was official he wasn't compatible with feeling much emotions. They even believed he feels nothing at all and pretends he cares about me.

His parents were rich enough to keep it off his medical records so the only people that know are them, him and me. Not even my own parents know because I didn't want to be kept from him.

He never cared about opinions so that just didn't matter to him anyways.

But that's something about him I wish I had because he never is bothered by anything.

He stopped in front of my classroom and I felt instantly sick.

"You're here" he said looking down at me and passing me back my books. "You look ready for this" he said as I gave him a half smile trying not to show how scared I truly was but I'm sure he knew. "Keep a strong head" he said petting my head and kissing my forehead.

He smiled before a bell went off.

"Now you're late" I said to him as he stepped back. He smiled struggling his shoulders.

It came so natural for him.

"I'll come back after this class and walk you to the next one" he said before walking away.

I wish I could be as careless.

I turned around to pick a seat.

Everyone stared with fearful eyes. They're all scared of me because of what they think Collin did and they think I know.

I took a deep breath and started walking to an open seat in the front.

"No" The girl next to the seat said swinging her bookbag into the seat.

I deserve this, I don't know for sure if he did it but I know he could've.

I finally found a seat next to a goth girl. Of course she wasn't scared of me.

She didn't say anything so I felt a little more comfortable as the hour passed.

"Is it true you lied about being with Collin the night Toby died?" she said standing up as the class was ending.

A student stopped in their steps to overhear my answer.

I did. Just say it.

"No, of course not." I said with my heart coming out my chest." Nobody should get away with doing that" I added and she gave me a doubtful look and laughed.

I could never say it.

"Toby was a bad guy and deserved it" She said before picking up her bookbag. "If you're lying, you could've been cool with me saying yeah" she added before walking away and the other student continued to leave.

I took a deep breath before getting up myself. I really should just leave but I already missed weeks of school.

Collin didn't meet me like he said he would.

I had to walk alone to my other class which I could feel all eyes on me. Just all nasty and hateful looks everywhere.

The halls felt colder without him with me. Why didn't he meet me like he said?

I felt myself beginning to cry as I made eye content with so many judgmental faces so I ran to the girl's bathroom.

I never understood how Collin was so unaffected by the last few weeks since the murder. Our first day back in school and he is just normal. Like he didn't kill Toby.

Don't say that. You don't even know.

••• After 3rd period •••

I stood by my classroom just hoping he would pop up since it was lunch time.

"Found you" He said from behind me causing me to jump. I rolled my eyes removing his hand off me.

"I saw you looking at flowers earlier" He said handing me the most beautiful random roses.

"Thank you" I said looking at all the colors. "Where did you steal these ones?" I added before smelling them.

"I didn't" he said grabbing my hand pulling me towards the cafeteria.

He lies effortlessly.

We sat where he meets his friends because lord knows I don't have any anymore.

I can tell he probably knows I know he's lying too. I would never want an argument with him so I just let things go.

"I stole them from that bitchy lady's yard" he finally said and I realized I was staring at him. He was referring to the lady who keeps harassing my younger siblings.

"Don't steal flowers from people" I said pretending I didn't like it but he knew I loved it. I loved that he liked going through trouble if he knew it would put a smile on my face. "They are beautiful" I added smelling them again letting go of the anger I had earlier.

"What's up" Cameron asked sitting down with his food. "Haven't seen y'all in awhile" he added doing a handshake with Collin.

"You look so high" Abby said smiling to Collin grabbing a seat on the other side of him ignoring my existence.

I'm used to every girl who claims to be his friend flirting with him. About 2 years ago when we were 15, Collin lost his virginity to Angel Hill in her mother's house during spring break while I was away with my family. He said that he didn't feel bad about doing it and didn't understand why I was so upset which is normal for a psychopath I guess. He said he wouldn't sleep with anyone else again once I cried about it.

"I am" he said nodding before pulling me onto his lap from my own seat making me smile.

It doesn't matter anymore because I taught him to believe in loyalty so we can be together although I don't know why he wants to be with me.

"Always is," Cameron said putting out his hand and Collin hands him a bag that had gummies in it.

"Everyone knows why he's on drugs all the time now" Nova added sitting down.

"How do you even know who we're talking about" Abby said.

"Collin" Nova said picking up her pizza slice and they all laughed.

One time he mentioned being high makes him almost feel something.

"Nova what were you saying about him being high?" I asked breaking their laugher a little annoyed.

"You don't expect us to pretend he isn't the only suspect for killing Toby?" she said and everyone was quiet. "You don't have to prove you didn't do it but at least knowledge it" she added.

"I didn't kill anyone" Collin said shrugging his shoulders.

"Right" Cameron said sarcastically.

Sometimes I think maybe his friends are psychopaths too.
