who killed jane?

Chapter 1

Paul's Perspective:
The bell rang, I was so happy to finally get out of math, I fucking hated math it was so unnecessarily complicated and irritating and time consuming but my next class was American literature, a class I could at least stand and it was mostly because it was with my best friend and crush Jane Carmichael. Jane was very beautiful and a new student who transferred from New York about a year ago. I grabbed my books and schoolwork papers and shoved them in my backpack before heading off to my next period.

I plopped down in a seat next to Jane who came into the classroom shortly after. I pulled out my binder from my backpack and when I looked up, Jane was looking at me "can't you say hi Paul?" She said "oh, um, hello!" I said. Jane chuckled while shaking her head and pulling out her work from her backpack.
I felt a tap on my back and turned around, my best friend Ty was behind me "you and Jane" he whispered before making a sexual gesture with his hands by sticking his finger in his other hand and moving it back and forth, I chuckled and shook my head before focusing my attention on the front board.

After class, I walked Jane to her locker "damn it, do you have the notes for math?" Jane asked "uh, yeah it's in my bag" I said. I pulled the notes out of my backpack and handed to her "thanks your a lifesaver" she said. Jane was about to go to her next class but I stopped her "um, do you maybe wanna study tonight?" I asked. Jane was quiet at first but she surprised me when she said "sure, your place?" I couldn't believe she actually agreed "um yeah, 8 sound good?" I asked "yeah, see you tonight" she said as she closed her locker and went to her next class.

Jane's Perspective:
I couldn't believe Paul asked me that, I hope I wasn't blushing because he only asked me over to study and it wasn't like he asked me out but, I think he felt the same way that I did, I could tell he really likes me and I really like him too but I'm not sure exactly how to tell him. I just kept my head low and walked into my next class. After class, I went back to my locker and was bombarded by my best friend Melissa Grey "hey, why do you look so happy? Is it a boy?" She asked "um, yeah actually" I said "oh my gosh who?" She asked "Paul Michaels" I said "oh he's cute" she said "yeah, and, he asked me to come over his house to study" I said "no way a study date?!" she asked "no Mel, just studying" I said "um hum, everyone knows that you don't study when someone invites you over, at least not that way" she said "Mel seriously, we're just studying" I said "alright, we'll just have to see" she said.

I grabbed my books, put them in my backpack and closed my locker heading off to the buses. When I got home, my mom was in the living room watching a reality show "Mom, I thought you said reality tv was only for people who don't have brain cells" I said "call me hypocrite Jane but this show is really entertaining" she said I laughed as she said that "so, how was school?" She asked "good, I'm passing all of my classes and, Paul asked me to come over for a study session at his place" I said "Paul, you mean, you boy you like Paul?" She asked "yeah, him" I said "so is it okay if I go tonight?" "Yeah, sure you can go just be back before eleven" she said. Later that night at around 7:30, I grabbed my backpack and headed out the door, Paul only lived a few houses away so I just walk to his house.

Paul's Perspective:
I was upstairs sitting on my bed, flipping through channels on my tv when I heard a knock at the door. My mom was going to open it but I rushed downstairs and grabbed it before she could reach it "whoa, never saw you move so fast" she said. I opened the door and it was Jane "um, hey Jane, this is my mom Dana, mom this is Jane" I said "nice to meet you Jane" my mom said. Jane walked in and I closed the door behind her and walked her up to my bedroom. She sat on my bed and started grabbing work out of her backpack "what do you wanna study first?" She asked "um, Algebra, I can't fail the next test or I'll be in deep shit" I said "okay we'll start with Algebra then" she said while giggling.

"Okay, so, the square root of five x plus one minus six equals zero" she said "wait I think I might know how to do this one, you add the six to zero and it becomes the square root of five x plus one equals six?" I said "yeah, you got this Paul" she said "yeah that's like the only think I understand" I said. We studied for a few more hours until the clock hit eleven "shit, I have to go!" Jane said "um okay, see you at school tomorrow" I said "see you later" she said. Jane dropped her book and I went to pick up as did she and we touched hands, It felt so cheesy and cliché but we stared at each other for a moment before I picked the book up and handed it to her "thanks, I'll see you later" she said. Before she left, I grabbed her hand which made her turn around and, although I was very nervous, I grabbed her cheek and kissed her. Jane smiled and walked out of my room and down the stairs, I couldn't believe I just did that.

Jane's Perspective:
I was so shocked yet so happy that he kissed me, I couldn't wait to tell Melissa. There was so many things running through my mind, I finally had a reality check and realized that it was almost midnight so I walked in the direction of my house but then I heard a noise following behind me, footsteps followed only seconds behind mind, I was being followed. I thought It was just Paul playing a joke or a something "Paul is that you?" I asked but with no answer. I started to worry and walked faster towards my house but then I heard the footsteps again, two sets of footsteps, I tried to make a run for it, but it was too late and someone grabbed me and I couldn't see their face.
