"You can't be serious." John had to take a seat, after all that he just heard.  There was- it just wasn't possible.  "I'm telling you this is fact, Alex wrote these." Peggy held out the flash drive. "Here." She took Alex's computer out of the drawer and logged in. Alex didn't have a password so it was easy access.

Even thought Peggy and Maria already explained to John that it was Alex behind the killings he just couldn't fathom it.
There was no way in hell Alex would be capable of killing. He was to sweet and kind and perfect. He- he was innocent, ....wasn't he?

"See!" Peggy pointed at the file, "Right there!" She clicked on it and handed the laptop to John, who read every word carefully.

After every death Alex wrote, "For John, my only reason to live."

He killed Angelica and Eliza, for they were temptation. He killed Thomas, Francis and Lafayette, who were blocks in the way. He killed Mr.King who was unworthy of living in the same grounds as John. John didn't know how to act. How to react.

He read the other files.

Obsession, lust and love. The files were filled with them. Every little detail about John, here. What he ate for breakfast, the classed he went to, his hopes and dreams, right there written down. And much more. He knew Alex was messed up in the head, but he loved him wither way and soon forgot about it. The voice never made an appearance or was ever mentioned by Alex in a long time.

"C-can I please- can I please be alone?" John asked softly. He layed his head back and rubbed his stinging eyes.

"Of course." Maria kissed John's cheek. "Stay safe." Then walked out. Peggy followed her until she reached the door. "Johnny, you know what to do, he doesn't- he isn't sane. Save yourself. Please." John nodded, and with a sigh Peggy closed the door.

John took the laptop and scrolled through it, reading every line as if it were last. Some of it was kind and sweet love poems, others were sex fantasies. One was a list of baby names. It broke John's heart as he read.
"Philip; because John said he loved the name. Anything my Angel wants."

Alexander always payed close attention to what John said, at least now he knew why.

"Cold in my professions, warm in my friendship, I wish my Dear Laurens that it might be in my power to convince you by action rather than words, that I love you."

(I did that my memory; did I get it right?)

That was the letter that drove John to tears. How could John love a phycopath? He truly wanted to be with him, to love him, to hug him, but he killed Lafayette. His first love.
And most of his friends. All for him. This was all Johns fault. He cried a bit harder.

No matter how strong John loved him, he just wasn't stable. What if one day in the future when they do have their Philip, Alex becomes abusive? Or what if Alex goes crazy and kills them both? Should he risk it? Alex truly loves him as well, would he ever become turn on him?

John waited for Alex to return. It was 4 am when the door slowly opened.
