Chapter Three: Delving Into The Past

I came into the rather bland room and looked around. There wasn't much, as you would probably expect, a table, a few chairs- but, there was a cute little mug that had a dinosaur on it that said: Rawr means I love you in dinosaur. I cracked a smile at that, seeing a tough officer such as Gaia would have something as cute as that.

I guess you really can't judge a book by its cover.

Officer Gaia was in the middle of fixing some papers so I just took the nearest seat and sat in it. After getting situated, Officer Gaia took the seat facing me and began "So, were you and the Meddlocks close? Zoey told me that Adrian tutored you in sophomore year."

I took a little bit of time to answer "Yes, the Meddlocks were just honest, down-to-earth people... Adrian's little sister Rebekah was the sweetest thing, they were like my second family..." I got a little choked up but continued nonetheless

"I first met Adrian early sophomore year, right after the accident happened... I was broken and hurt, I started doing the wrong things and hanging with the wrong crowd" I took another breath.

"One night I was drunk and walking home by myself and I started feeling dizzy and passed out, Adrian carried me to his home and fixed me up and took care of me, so did the Meddlocks... I could never thank them enough" Later in the year I asked if Adrian could tutor me, my grades were dropping after..."

Officer Gaia put her hand on my shoulder, to comfort me. It was a very maternal act, I wonder if she had any children of her own. "It's okay, you don't have to continue. Lets talk about something else shall we?" I nodded my head absently and pulled the blue hoodie around me tighter, for comfort.

"Alright so did Adrian have any enemies? Do you remember anything different about him the day before this all happened? Even if it's the tiniest thing, it will gives us more information about the case."

I though about that for a while before I spoke up "I'm not sure if it will help, but the last time I saw him he was as pale as a ghost. I kept on asking him why he was acting so strange but the only thing he would tell me is that he felt as if the shadows were following him..."

"I asked him what he meant and he said 'You will know him by his smile' but then after that he just went AWOL, I mean he would come home time to time but other than that..." I trailed off and shrugged.

She took all the information and let it soak in, she had this sullen look on her face. Maybe she knew something? She stood up and started to leave "Wait!" I called out to her, she turned around "I have to report what you said to the cheif of police, that whole story confirms our suspicions and leaves us with one suspect"

I slowly exhaled, and asked the one question I have been dying to know "Who is it?" My voice became dangerously low as I said it, but Officer Gaia kept level eye contact with me nevertheless. "Jeff, Jeff The Killer" she uttered the name hauntingly, as if she feared the name would bring him to this very spot.

She started walking to the office but halted in her tracks "One more thing" her voice was low and somber, not the lively and charismatic voice she usually held "Get a friend to walk you home, the streets are dangerous at night. Especially with a serial killer at large." and with that word of advice, she was off.

I turned the opposite way she was going and went over to Zoey. She smiled at me and I returned her smile... even though it was more of a grimace, I felt tears drop down rapidly and she came over and embraced me tightly.

Even if we had our differences, she was the best friend a girl could ever have. Even if we fight, we always make up. She make be a little bit wacky, or a little eccentric, but that's her way of making you smile, and you can't ignore that.
