"Let's do this partner in crime"
Noah sat down by his laptop typing in the password for the laptop Audrey sat next to him nervously tapping her foot on the groundError
"Wait what?" Noah tapped the buttons "why won't it load" Audrey asked her breathing become heavier "fuck fuck" she whispered starting to pace his room "Im going to take a breath" Audrey walked out of Noah's room slamming the door behind her
Noah sighed and went back to his computer, his face lit up when your texts showed up "auds! I got it-" Noah shut up when he saw the pictures of you and Audrey. Audrey burst through the door "you got it?" She asked Noah slammed his laptop shut "nope"
Two days later
You walked into class seeing the usual group sitting gathered at the round table all except Kieran. You took the only seat that was between Audrey and Emma. They did that on purpose
Audrey was too busy on her phone to even notice you which was a blessing really you had gotten staying clear of her for the past two days and you kinda wanted to keep it that way "good your here, we need your help"
Noah grabbed a piece of paper from his book bag and set it out on the table catching Audrey's attention she saw you and turned her gaze away "do you know about this Audrey?" You asked this being the first time you spoke to her since you shoved her into a locker "Yup" she replied
Goddamn she looked cute today
You let out a annoyed sigh and
sat up farther in your seat and looked at itAuribus teneo lupum
You looked up from the paper and to Noah "Im bisexual not bilingual" You said with a sarcastic smirk Brooke snorted a laugh Noah gave you that pleading look
You let out a sigh "its Archaic Latin"
"You know Archaic Latin?" Audrey asked "yes I know Archaic Latin. I got bored with Classical Latin" you replied "how smart are you?" Emma asked you glanced over your shoulder at her
"Well what does it mean?" Noah asked pointed frantically at the paper "it means your holding a wolf by its ears" You said Brooke looked at you confused "and that means? What?"
"To have a wolf by its ears means that your in control of a situation, so if you got this from the killer then he's trying to say he's in control of this, it basically means he's in control of all of us"
You clenched your jaw at what you just said set it. He's in control of you.
You sat back in your seat "thanks" Noah murmured grabbing the note off the table. You grabbed your sketchbook and opened it back to your drawing of Audrey
You remembered the mask from that night and it didn't help that you researched it and Noah filled you in on all the details
You didn't think Audrey was the killer it was obvious she wasn't she's the one who saved you that night
"This is art class aren't we supposed to be drawing or some shit?" Brooke said "Sorry Im late today you can paint" the teacher rushed into the room
You rolled your eyes and set down your sketchbook turning to a clean page and picked up the paint brush
You started to paint not really fully paying attention
You reached up to dip the brush into more paint the fire alarm going off made you drop your brush into the red paint. The splatter from the paint splattered into your page and a little onto Emma's
You couldn't help but think of how similar it looked to blood making you stare "y/n" Emma placed a hand on your arm "come on fire drill" you looked down at the paper one last time before walking with Brooke and Emma out of the classroom
