      You walked into school your hand held tightly in Audrey's. She didn't really like PDA the only thing you would do was hand holding and a quick peck on the cheek here and there. "Hey cuties" Brooke said appearing next to you "hey B" you replied with a smile "did you guys finish the English assignment?" Brooke questioned "Yup but it's not due till tomorrow so your good"

"Haha 'can't do this the night before' my ass" Brooke said sticking her tongue out and laughing. You let go of Audrey's hand to unlock your locker " I can give you my notes if you w-" you opened your locker and felt a splatter of a cold substance hit your body, you looked down to see a huge red stain in the middle of your perfectly clean white shirt. You glanced up to your locker and saw the tube of fake blood squished under two of your textbooks. "Remind you of anyone?"

Jake

You turned around to see Haley walking past with two of her friends a huge grin on her face. "Prick" Audrey whispered and quickly took her flannel off her waist and let you put it on "I can't believe their joking about that" Brooke crossed her arms over her chest a pout on her face

Emma walked up to the three of you "where's Kieran?" Brooke asked "I don't know anymore he left town last night said he would be back tonight" Emma stressfully ran her hands over her face "for what?"

"Wouldn't tell me"

You sighed and shut your locker "lets just go to class before this day gets worse"
____

You sat in the back of the room Audrey two seats ahead of you, Emma on one side of the room, Brooke on the other. Usually you would all sit together or at least near each other, but all of you were stressed and just needed some space.

"Lets turn out attention away from the lesson today and talk about what had happened in California this morning" the teacher leaned on his desk, you sat up in your seat

"Yeah I heard the girl got gutted like a pig" a guy from the football team said, Brooke looked down and thought about Jake

"Okay no need for the brutal language, out of respect for the girl"

Noah raised his hand and you prepared yourself for one of his creepy stories or theories. "What if it's like a copycat? You know someone in California researches what's been going on here and decides to live on the Brandon James murders"

"Its not living on if it's still happening Noah" You interrupted making him mumble an apology. Your phone bussed in your pocket and you quickly grabbed it

Lydia
Call Malia please

You stood up in your seat "Sorry I gotta uh-take a piss, yeah totally gotta pee" you rambled quickly making your way out of the classroom and taking a quick sprint to the bathroom

You paced back and forth while waiting for Malia to pick up "hello?" Her raspy voice filled your ear as she picked up "Malia oh thank god- whats going on?" You quickly said you heard silence before a loud sob came from the other end of the phone

"Its Kira, y/n she's dead" Malia said through her tears "what? You guys were just out with her last night" You frantically said not wanting this to be true. You and Kira weren't the best of friends but she was nice so innocent and small, smart too, she didn't deserve to die like this. Malia and Kira were super close though, You could see why this was affecting Malia so much. Lydia even told you Malia was planning on asking Kira out

You pressed your back against the cold yellow tile wall, sliding down it and bringing your knees to your chest. You felt tears sting your eyes "well this day officially sucks harder than that time you sucked stiles dick" You said with an airy laugh trying to add light to this.

"Yeah we dated for a week than he dumped me to get back with Lydia" Malia replied you couldn't help but smile at those times, before you and Malia even thought about dating

You licked your lips and rested your head back on the wall "I miss you Mal" You said pressing your lips together "I miss you too y/n/n"

"I love you, you know?" You said there was a pause from Malia "I love you too" she said before the line went dead. You ran your fingers through your hair. You heard the bathroom door creak open and Audrey kneeled down in front of you taking your hand in hers "You okay?"

"I need a plane ticket back to California for a funeral" You mumbled, Audrey nodded and sadly looked down "I'll take you home" Audrey stood up helping you up with her. She wrapped an arm over your shoulders as you walked down the hall

"It'll be okay"
