"Sky!" I shout, bursting onto the hiking trail. "Sky, he's a traitor!"
"Tyler?" he asks, confused and a bit startled. "What, no. Tyler isn't a traitor."
"No, Sky, he is. Please, for the last time, you have to believe me, he threatened you during the interview, and-"
"Oh, right, sure. He threatened me and then you approved him anyway, because you're such a caring and trustworthy friend."
My eyes widen. Did he seriously just- "Sky, no, I- Look, I'm sorry, he said he'd hurt you if I didn't approve, I'm-"
"I don't believe you," he says, shrugging. "Sorry. I trust Tyler - he's been really nice so far, and we get along pretty well."
"He's faking it, Sky. I don't know what he wants, but he told me he'd harm you if I didn't let him see you-"
"Maybe he just really liked me and thought we could be good friends! Maybe he was tired of seeing you turn away everyone who walked into that interview room! Maybe he just wants the best for me unlike some people and so he was faking it when he was talking to you!"
I flinch back. "I'm not- I wasn't turning them all away just for the heck of it, Sky, I was- I was looking out for you. And, anyways, why would he destroy my trust like that just so he could hang out with you?"
"I don't know." Sky sniffs. "Maybe he didn't think you deserved his trust, and he didn't want your trust in return. No matter what your little story was all about, Tyler is my friend. Goodbye, Ty."
"It's not a story, Sky!"
"Sky, who's that?" a voice asks, and I freeze. He can't know I've told Sky about his threats, Sky will get hurt! "Oh. Ty. Hello."
He steps fully out from behind the trees, and I cringe. "Hello, Tyler," I reply stiffly.
"What's he doing here?" he asks Sky, who rolls his eyes.
"No idea, to be honest. I wish he'd shove off," Sky tells him. I am right here!
"Ah, well, not all wishes come true. Some do, though," and then he leans in and kisses Sky, and Sky's eyes widen for a moment but then they flutter shut and he melts into it and he's kissing back, he's kissing back and no, no, no-
Just as I start to move forward - to do what, I'm not exactly sure - Tyler silently unsheathes his sword and smiles at me cruelly, mouthing the word "watch." Then he raises his blade, and, so quickly that my eyes can barely track the movement, he sticks it into my best friend's throat and out the other end.
"SKY!"
