Innocent Killer

Unknown

A/N: Sorry, I took down the last part of the last chapter, so that I can do this chapter to where it makes more sense.

*Lily's POV*

I walk up with a jolt from the beeping of my alarm clock.I hop down from my bed and walk into the cornflower blue painted bathroom. My outfit for today is a mint green overall skater skirt, a black spaghetti strap tank top underneath and black converses. Today me and the guys are going to a local mall.

I finished getting dressed and do my hair. I walk out only to see Jack standing by the door, getting ready to know. "Sorry..." I mutter quietly while trying to push my way by the tall man, only to have my arm grabbed and Jack turning my around.

"Listen, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. I made things awkward." Jack apologizes, looking down with a tired and sad expression .

"Don't be." I state simply.

"What?" He responded, lifting his head up again.

"Don't be sorry. I like you a lot too Jack. I just don't know how to react. I was overjoyed to hear that you like me, but I didn't know how to show it. I honestly just don't think I'm ready and I don't want to hurt you when C.C.P. takes over. I also don't think I could open up to someone just yet." I explain to him as the others start to wake up.

"Alright. Thank you Lily, I understand. Also your tattoo is showing." He says with an amused smirk.

"I know." I answer with a small smile and continue walking back to my top bunk. I then sat and waited for the core while playing on my phone. As I was playing on my favorite game, piano tiles, I get a text,

I open it and the message read:

              "I know who you are and I will kill you if you are not already dead by July 3rd -Unknown"

I quickly turn off my phone and join the now ready to leave group of guys. Jack look worried after noticing I had turned really pale. He quickly walks over and grabs my hand, "Are you ok? You are pale."   He asks. I nod and start walking, only for me to start falling over, Jack caught me swiftly and securely in his strong arms before I could hit the ground. Axel then walked over, seeming confused at the scene he had just seen.

"You ok?" Axel asked me, seeming a bit worried.

"I'm fine, my knee just buckled." I assure them. I the put on my cat mask, covering my now slightly pink tinted cheeks  and walk outside, leaving the two boys there, confused as ever.

Once I was outside, I see Carter standing there with a few of his buddies. Carter was wearing a pair of navy blue jeans, a white t-shirt and white converse. I smile and walk over with a small wave. When I got over to them, I hear the familiar creaking of the dorm's door. Jack then walks out and he had on a pair of black faded jeans, a red shirt, with a leather jacket and biker boots, atop his head lied a pair of aviator sunglasses.

"Lily?" Carter asks, waving his hand in front of my face, knocking me out of my trance.

"Hm? O-oh sorry." I answer, blushing again when Jack smirks knowingly at me. I smile and turn my back to him, facing Carter once again.

After everyone was ready, we piled into the big van and head to the small mall. I decided to sit between Jack and Carter in the backseat. Jack had fallen asleep peacefully, looking calm for once in his life, that I've seen. Carter has been quietly, but awkwardly sitting there.

"Um, Lily?" Carter says, gaining my attention.

"Yes?" I respond to him.

"C-can I borrow your phone to call my brother?" He asked me, seeming nervous.

"Of course." I answer with a reassuring smile.

"Thank you so much!" He exclaims as I hand him my phone. "I'm gonna go call him now!" He informs  me and steps out of the van, seeing that we are now here and walking a few feet away.

"Alright." I say and decide to wake up Jack before stepping out of the van for myself, Jack holding me steady, thinking that it's helping. After a few minutes, Carter comes back with a worried and scared expression on his face. "What's wrong?" I ask him, hoping that he didn't see the text that I had previously forgotten to delete out my scared state of mind. 

"Nothing." He answers curtly before walking into the mall. 

"Ok..." I say before following after the other guys.

*Cater's POV*

I know who threatened Lily, but I need help.
