"Attention, Panthers! For safety reasons, all classes and activities are cancelled," sounded through the speakers as Wes and Alexa walked over to Amber and Mindy.

"Hi guys," said Alexa as she waved to her twin sister and Mindy. "Hey, Wes, Lexa," said Mindy with a smile. Alexa smiled and sat down next to Wes.

Wes's phone vibrated in his pocket. He frowned as he looked at the message.

"What is it?" asked Alexa as she held his bicep. "That was Sam," Wes said as he put his phone away. "Is she coming?" asked Amber with disgust. "Yeah," answered Wes as he put an arm around Alexa. "It only gets worse," sighed Amber.

''Listen, what I just want to say is with everything that's going on right now, it's time for the next intimate step in our relationship,'' Chad chimed in as he approached with Liv. He had an arm over her shoulder.

"He wants to add me in Find My Fam," Liv said as she looked at her friends. Alexa chuckled and raised an eyebrow.

Chad looked at her. His mood immediately switched to irritated as soon as he saw Wes had an arm around his Alexa.

"That's the smartest option. There's a killer on the loose. You then know where I am and you know where I am," Chad explained to his girlfriend. "Then you can stalk me every second," said Liv with a pout. "And you can stalk me," said Chad with a smile as he looked at Liv.

"Ew, you guys are even worse than my sister and Wes," said Amber as she gave Alexa a little push. Wes rolled his eyes as Alexa looked at her sister angrily.

"Are you guys doing this because you haven't had sex yet?" asked Amber to Chad and Liv. "Good point. Of course, it's not just about sex for me," said Chad as he pointed to Amber. "Good," Liv said as she grabbed her boyfriend's face.

Alexa glared at Liv.

"Nice outfit, Lexa," said Liv as she looked at Alexa. Alexa was wearing a short white tank top with spaghetti straps and red Adidas track pants. "Thank you," said Alexa with a fake smile.

"Liv, you don't want that lunatic to find you. Delete social media, tape your camera, turn off GPS," Wes mentioned. "Come on, babe. You sound paranoid," joked Alexa as she laid her head on his shoulder.

"It happened the night you left my house. It could have been you too," Wes said as he looked at Alexa. "But it wasn't me," Alexa said with a smile, before giving him a quick kiss.

Chad stared at the couple, wishing he was Wes.

"Thank you, Edward Snowden," said Chad sarcastically. Wes rolled his eyes. "Your mother just questioned me about the attack on Tara. Which was very nice."

Wes and Alexa looked at Wes's mother. Mrs. Hicks smiled at Alexa. Alexa smiled back. Alexa liked Wes's mother a lot. Judy Hicks liked Alexa also a lot. Judy felt that Alexa was the one for Wes.

"Probably not just you. Ghostface is back," Wes said as he looked away from his mother. "Not according to the press," Mindy spoke up. "To avoid panic," said Alexa as she looked at her best friend. "Just wait until the second or third murder," said Mindy as she looked at Alexa. "Jesus, Mindy. There's not even a first kill yet," said Amber as she leaned forward.

"Tara is still alive," Alexa agreed with her twin sister. "She could still die," said Mindy with doubt. "What the fuck!" snapped Amber.

"The psycho could come back," Mindy said. "Fuck, Mindy," sighed Chad. "Listen, you have to be prepared. Pepper spray check, taser check," Wes said to his friends. "Big chance Alexa is going to break up with you right now, check," Amber teased him.

"Oh, shut up," said Alexa as she slapped her twin sister as the rest began to laugh. "Don't listen to her."

"Very nice, thank you," Wes said sarcastically to Amber.

"Shit, is that Vince?" asked Liv as she looked off into the distance. "Didn't you used to hook up with that creep last summer?" asked Chad as he looked at a guy leaning against a car. "He was a co- worker of mine and Tara, so yeah," sighed Liv.

"Slut," Alexa coughed. "What?" asked Liv. "Nothing," said Alexa quickly.

Amber chuckled, she had been the only one to hear it.

"He used to work with Tara?" asked Mindy as she looked at the unfamiliar dude. "He's been stalking me on Instagram recently and posting all kinds of creepy stuff," Liv told them as she looked uncomfortably at Vince.

Mindy pointed her phone at Vince and took a picture. "I'll show him these guys," Chad said as he flexed his biceps.

Alexa couldn't help but stare.

"Maybe it's not the best idea to fight in front of the sheriff," Liv said as she stopped her boyfriend. "Looks like he's leaving anyway," said Mindy as she stared at Vince. "Thanks anyway, right guys," joked Alexa as she eyed Chad's biceps. Chad and the rest chuckled.

"Tara said she fought back last night. You have bruises," Amber remarked. "Yeah, from football practice," said Chad as he frowned. "Tara's awake. She just texted," said Wes as he looked at his phone. "I'm going to the hospital. Are you guys coming with me?"

"Yeah," said Alexa as she stood up. The rest followed.

"I can't. I'll see you guys later," said Liv with a regretful look. "Like always," Alexa muttered under her breath.

Amber grinned at her twin sister.

Wes put an arm around Alexa's shoulders as they walked ahead to Wes's car.

"Stop looking at her bum," hissed Mindy to her twin brother. "What, I wasn't," denied Chad. "Mhm, but I can't blame you. It's beautiful," said Mindy with a wink. Chad rolled his eyes with a smile and got into his car.
