~Louis' POV~

I make it into my room and shut the door. "She's an American beauty
I'm an American psycho
She's an American beauty
I'm an American, I'm an American
American Psycho
I'm an American, I'm an American
I'm, I'm, I'm an American psycho." I start to sing. I remember that guy that thought he could take Raven from me. I prepare my gun and my knife. Soon, I arrive at his house to 'Hang out'. I ring the doorbell and he opens it. "Heyyy Maxwell..." I hiss, pretending to be playful. "Hey." He says. He takes me to his room and I sit on the bed and wait. Finally I see the right time to strike. The song plays in my head.

"I think I fell in love again
Maybe I just took too much cough medicine
I'm the best worst thing that hasn't happened to you yet
The best worst thing
You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out
You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out
And you can kill me, kill me or let God sort 'em out
Kill me, kill me or-"

I slit his wrists and he bleeds until he passes out. I put a bandage on his wrists and wait for him to wake up.

"She's an American beauty
I'm an American psycho
She's an American beauty
I'm an American, I'm an American
American Psycho
I'm an American, I'm an American
I'm, I'm, I'm an American psycho

I'm an American, I'm an American
I'm, I'm, I'm an American psycho

I wish I dreamt in the shape of your mouth
But it's your thread count I really care about
Stay up 'til the lights go out
Stay up, Stay up
You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out
You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out
And as we're drifting off to sleep
All those dirty thoughts of me
They were never yours to keep"

I anxiously wait for him to wake up. I prepare my knife for more cuts on him.

"Altered boys, altered boys
We're the things that love destroyed
(I'm an American, I'm an American)
You, me, us, them
We're just resurrection men
(I'm an American, I'm an American)
Us, we were only there, to make you live again
(I'm an American, I'm an American)

She's an American beauty
I'm an American psycho
She's an American beauty
I'm an American, I'm an American
American Psycho
I'm an American, I'm an American
I'm, I'm, I'm an American psycho

I'm an American, I'm an American, I'm an American psycho
I'm an American, I'm an American
I'm, I'm, I'm an American psycho"

I watch as he wakes up slowly. I wait until he is fully awake then cut him some more. He doesnt pass out this time, so I keep cutting him until he is a bloodied mess. "Please... stop.... why are you doing this??" He asks, scared half to death. "You imbecile! You think you can steal Raven from me!!!!!!!" I scream. "But-" "No. No. No. Shut up! SHUT UP!" I yell again. "Holy crap, Louis! Something's wrong with you. You're insane!" Maxwell says. "No! No! I'm not insane!" I scream, my head twitching. "Please, stop.. I'll help you with this!" He pleads. "No!" I scream. "You want crazy? I'll show you crazy!" I yell, stabbing him, then shooting him. I clean up a bit to make it look like he killed himself. Then I jump out of the window and run to Ravens house. I climb through the window. She looks over and sees me. "What happened?" She asks. "You gotta help me. Im going insane! I just killed someone. But I meant to. For you. I keep hearing things... I dont know what's happening to me!!!!" I scream. Raven hugs me. "Hey, it's ok. I promise. You just killed for love, so of course it's insane." She says, trying to calm me down. Soon, I'm asleep in her arms.
