So well, after that they arrested him and explained what was going on. To say I was shocked would be an understatement.

Getting in my car I dropped my bag in the passenger seat, started the car and drove home. By the time I had reached my house there were quite a few cars parked on the street. I think i'm a little late. Sighing, I park grabbing my bag and make my way inside. As soon as I walked through the door a blur of clothes ran towards me and I was engulfed in a bear hug.

"Thank god." my brother Aiden whispered still hugging me.

He turned 17 today and it's a tradition that we have a family only party on our actual birthday. Were allowed to have a party with friends the following day. But the thing is when our family is all together under one roof shit does down. Arguments, fights, screaming children, and worst of all cheek pinching. My aunts will literally pinch the life out of you, no matter how old you get.

"Happy birthday little bro," I chimed ruffling his hair.

He unwrapped his arms from me and glared while fixing it.

"How could you be so cruel and leave me alone for half an hour?!?!"

"I had an emergency."

That's all he could get me to say as I dropped my stuff and headed towards the food. He just rolled his eyes and walked away.

"Fatty," he muttered under his breath as he passed me. Ignoring him I made my way over to the chips grabbing a handful and shoving then into my mouth.

"LI!"

I spun around to see my mom glaring daggers at me.

"Yes mother?" I sheepishly asked, chips flying everywhere. Her expression turned into a disgusted one and she just shook her head, walking to the living room to yell at my cousins.

"Andrea, get off of that table right now young lady!"

Grabbing the whole bowl of chips I made my way up to my room so I could avoid my family. Taking a seat at the desk I turn on my laptop an began checking my mail. As I was deleting spam and useless ads I came across a mysterious email. The sender was listed as unknown. Strange.

Unit 1937 Randolf Lane Tomorrow at 5:00 pm. Come alone if you want answers.

Answers? This could possibly relate to Logan. Does it sound sketchy as hell? Yes. Am I going to be wise and ignore it? Hell no. I leaned back in my chair shoving another handful of chips in my mouth and smirked. Seems i've got a lead to figuring out who the killer is.

About 2 hours later we said goodbye to everyone as they left and my parents made their way to the kitchen to clean up the disaster my family left behind.

"That felt like days not hours."

Aiden collapsed on the couch from exhaustion.

I just rolled my eyes taking a seat beside him. "It wasn't that bad," I shrugged

"Coming from the girl who showed up late then stays in her room the whole time."

A smirk found it's way onto my face. "My presence could be felt, even all the way down here."

"Arrogant much?"

I slapped him for that one. He gasped rubbing his shoulder.

"While you sit there and learn to take a joke, i'm going to bed."

"Thank god." He was still rubbing his arm even though I hit him with such little force.

"Love you too!"

As I made my way upstairs he used the arm in 'pain' to pick up the remote and turn on the t.v.

Changing into my pjs and brushing my teeth I got into bed. With it being so comfy I fell asleep almost instantly. My last thought being curious as to who sent that email.
