*This is in Troyes POV*

I wake up to the familiar sound of cooking in the kitchen. I get up and walk into the kitchen to see Jamie and Tessa cooking breakfast and Scotty sitting at my kitchen bench.

"Morning guys." I say tiredly.

"Hey lazybones!" says Jamie.

"When did Scotty get here?" I asked.

Last night Jamie stayed at Tessa and I's apartment, but I don't remember Scotty staying.

"He arrived this morning before any of us were awake." Tessa says sounding annoyed. "When did you give him a key?"

"I don't know... Probably last time he stayed." I reply.

Scotty was at the bench eating a stack of pancakes to himself. His eyes were red and he looked like he was about to cry. I walk over and pat him on the back.

"It's alright buddy... you ok?" I say as comforting as my drowsy self can.

"Mmmm..." He Mumbles through mouthfuls of food.

With everyone in the kitchen acting so happy you would think nothing had happened last night. I sit on the couch and turn on the news. I regret this decision right away. Of course every channel is about what happened last night. As I'm about to turn it off a photo of my friend Devyn comes up. I instantly thought the worse. The last time I saw Devyn was when she was in hospital. But luckily the only thing they spoke about was how one of the deaths were at her house and that she was sent home last night from the hospital. I switch off the TV not wanting to hear about it anymore.

"You ok Troye... " Tessa asks.

"Yeah..." I reply.

I walk up to the bench and we all eat breakfast in a horrible silence that brings back a lot of last night. When we all finish breakfast Scotty and I do the dishes while Tessa and Jamie talk to each other on the couch.

"You wanna talk?" I ask Scotty.

As I say this he drops the dishes in the sink braking most of them, and then runs out of the room crying. I put the dishes I was doing down not caring about the broken ones and go sit down with Tessa and Jamie.

"What you guys talking about...?" I ask quietly.

"uhh... last night..." Tessa whispers sadly.

"What do you think happened to Finn...?" Jamie asks.

"I don't know... but I don't he should be a suspect..." I reply.

We sit there quietly not knowing what to do or say. I want to say something but I know that if I try to talk I will start to cry.

*Ringggggg ring ring*

My phone starts ringing from the kitchen. I answer it trying desperately not to cry.

"Hello?" I say not bothering to check the caller ID.

"Hey Troye, How are you and Tessa?" It was Devyn she sounded like she had just woken up.

"Hey Devyn, I'm alright don't know about Tessa or Jamie though..." I reply trying not to sound to depressed.

"Oh I didn't know Jamie was there... did he stay the night?"

"Yeah... Scotty is here as well he arrived this morning."

"I know.. I was texting him before I called you."

"oh ok... why you call anyway?" I ask trying not to think about Scotty being so upset.

"Um yeah... I got a call from Deputy McKinley again... He said we all have to go to the police station. He needs to talk to us about something?"

"Really? what about?"

"I don't know he just said we all had to be there."

"oh ok... well I guess we'll see you soon."

"yeah... bye"

I hang up the phone and walk into the lounge.

"That was Devyn, she says we all have to go down to the police station..." I tell them.

"What? Why?" Groaned Scotty who had walked into the room.

"Idk she just said she got a call from the cops telling her what I'm telling you."

Everyone looks at each other confused. Soon we are all dressed and ready. We walk out to the parking garage and hop in my car. Jamie and Scotty decide to go in Scotty's car so they could both go home after the police.
I start to drive out of the parking lot not bothering to check my fuel. We are half way down the road when Tessa starts screaming.

"ARGHHHHHH!!" She screams so loud I nearly crash.

"TESSA WHAT'S WRONG!!" I yell.

I feel something splash against my arm as I turn my head towards Tessa. I am horrified when I see someones arm reaching around the passenger seat from the backseat. I look at Tessa's stomach and wish I didn't she had been stabbed so much, what seemed to be her intestine was now hanging half out of her.

"OH MY GOD!! SHIT... GOD...TESSA I'M SORRY!!!" There was no way she was still alive.

I hear my phone ringing, It was Jamie. Before I could answer it I felt the worst feeling on earth. It was cold, piercing and felt like nothing I have ever felt before. I didn't have to look down I knew I had been stabbed. My vision blurred, the taste of blood overwhelmed my mouth, sirens and car horns filled my ears and everything hurt. I felt the blade stab into me once more before I crashed into a building on the side of the road.
There was blood everywhere, I could barley hear anything. I needed to get out of the car. I open the door and the fell out hitting my head on the ground.

"OH MY GOD, TROYE... TROYE WHAT HAPPENED!!" I hear Jamie yelling.

I look up and see him and Scotty running over towards the car.

"SCOTTY GO TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AND GET TESSA!!" He yells. "Oh my god, oh my god! Your stomach! How...WHAT??" He sounded so scared and shocked.

I hear I weird dragging sound and a lot of crying and yelling. There is a big thud next to me, so i look over. It was Tessa's body.

"Oh my god, oh my god what do we do!!!" I hear Jamie panicking and I feel so bad.

"Imma call the cops." Scotty says his voice trembling.

Soon after I hear a car door slam and running footsteps.

"WHAT THE... SHIT WHO WAS THAT." Scotty yells running after them.

Jamie kneels back down next to me. He is trying to be comforting but the only thing he can do is panic. He starts to Hyperventilate, he's now talking to himself.

"Oh... MY GOD SCOTTY!" I hear Jamie screaming but before I can see whats going on everything becomes blurry and I pass out.
