I come barreling down the stairs. What the fuck happened? My head is pounding with sharp pains. Damn hangover! Getting up so fast certainly doesn't help. I see Lola already standing with Levi. She's wearing a pair of shorts and one of those knotted pajama crop tops. Her sleek, brown hair falls shimmering down her back. Warm, fluffy socks keep her small feet cozy. Noah comes rushing down the stairs beside me. I step aside. Once he reaches the bottom, he stands stock still. Everyone is holding their breath. Noah puts a reassuring arm around Lola. I feel a twinge of jealousy. Why? Something serious must have happened! I shouldn't feel that emotion, and I definitely shouldn't show it. Levi might have seriously injured himself. I still can't see what's going on, so I quickly move to get a better look.

I gasp when I see what's going on; Jamie is hanging in the hallway closet, suspended by a rope tied around her neck, attached to a clothing rack amidst the coats. She looks bloodied and filthy. It's so grim. Oliver comes running into the hallway as well and shoves me roughly aside. "What's going on?!?" he shouts angrily.
