Murder Mystery (ENG)

4

Me, Femke and Skylar were in the front row to support our best friend Aaron at his performance. His music career skyrocketed when he won The Masked singer as a Wizard. We have been following him since with Bobby as we have been friends since early high school. We are immensely proud already of what he has achieved. And no matter what happens, we are always going to be there for him.

'I'm going to get a drink, do you guys need anything?' I asked.

'I still have thanks.' Said Skylar

'I don't want anything.' Said Femke. I went to the bar when I bumped into someone.

'Sorry, didn't see you...' I said. Looking at him, I immediately walked on. I had forgotten that Niels worked at concert events.

'Faya, wait, I want to say sorry.'

'I don't need sorry, and don't think I'll take you back anymore. We're done,' I said and ordered my drink and left him. Annoyed, I joined the rest.

'Everything okay?' Femke asked.

'Not really, bumped into Niels, forgot he had to work here. Said my thoughts and then came to you guys.'

'You go girl!!! Different and better!' Said skylar.

'Different and hotter... Like Colby!' Answered Femke. I smiled and we toasted. And then our Aaron's performance began. I thoroughly enjoyed myself along with my friends. I felt a bit weird though. Falls so hard to explain. Good or something, too good... drunk... no can't, I don't drink...

The concert was over and we went backstage.

'Heyyy, great job again.' Said skylar immediately and gave him a hug.

'Super as always.' Said Femke and kissed him.

'Really wooooowww aaron, really wow!!!' I managed to say before I collapsed on the floor.

POV Colby

After doing the live video, we decided to get something to eat and drink at a nearby café. There was also something going on there and we were curious.

Country music and everyone there was line dancing. Was really cool to see.

'Niceeee, country party!" said Sam and stood watching the dancers. We were welcomed as outsiders and if we felt like it, we were also allowed to try dancing ourselves.

'Some of them are really not difficult. You're going to get the hang of it in no time!' Said one person.

'But I know you guys... Sam and Colby, Faya always talks about you guys.' Said someone else.

'You guys know Faya?' Asked Sam.

'Yes we do, she's the best dancer in all of Belgium. She knows everything by heart. And it's too much fun to watch her singing and dancing. I'm her teacher Rita, by the way.'

'Nice to hear.' Said I smiling.

'Come, we'll teach you 1, is really simple and can be done on anything.' she said and we were pulled onto the dance floor.' Me and Sam were now standing like this among all the cowboys and cowgirls and it was a real joy.

'We should do this more!' Said Sam enthusiastically.

'Really we should. Yihaaa!' Laughed I and totally let myself go with the dance. I was fully on board and it was going immensely well until suddenly they all started shouting. Me and Sam freaked out and lost all our rhythm. We got the giggles and we stood aside to continue watching.

It was getting late and we decided to return to the hotel.

'You have videos of this huh.' Said I.

'Asked to send them on and just received them via email.'

'Wonder what XPLR club will think of this.' Everywhere we've been now Faya's name always pops up. The first meeting, the surprise today and now at a line dance night. She must be really well known and hugely loved by many. It was enormously dark now and we lost our way to the hotel for a while. Sam crossed quickly to ask someone for directions.

'Colby, is along here!' Shouted Sam. I nodded and then crossed the street.

'COLBY!!!!' ' I heard someone call out, but before I could react I saw 2 lights coming towards me and everything went black.
