"Stay here," Randy said cautiously as he stood to answer the front door. Once the door opens, I see Billy jump on Randy, knocking him to ground. I hear screaming but it takes me a minute to realize I'm the one screaming. I jump up and grab a knife from the kitchen and run towards Randy. Randy sees me coming and pulls out the knife he had and stabs Billy in the chest. I let out a scream of pain as I watch Billy slump to the ground. I turn and run upstairs, not turning to know that Randy is following me. I close myself off in a room and grab the phone. I dial 911 and tell them the address and that I am being held hostage. The door is threw open and Randy sees me hang up the phone.
"Do you not love me?" Randy asks angrily.
"I can't!" I scream, "I love Billy"
"If you don't love me you've gotta die," Randy said with a sad smile on his face.
He lunged for me, pushing me against the wall. I knocked my head against the wall, suddenly feeling quite sleepy. But I had to think of a plan, one that would give me the chance to pull the knife out of my back pocket and kill Randy.
"Randy, I think... maybe I could learn to love you."
"What?" Randy said happily, "you think so?"
"Yes," I said as brightly as I could muster, "I think so."
Randy grabbed my face and began to kiss me, as he kissed me he didn't realized my hand slide to my back pocket. Tears filled my eyes as I thought of killing someone, but I had to go help Billy before he died.
"I'm sorry." I said quietly as I plunged the knife as deep in Randy's chest as I could.
He pulled back, eyes huge from shock. "You.. played me," me said slowly while losing conscience, "you bitch."
He slumped to the ground, giving me time to run out the door and stumble down the stairs.
"Billy!" I tell as I reach his still body." His eyes slowly open and a wave of happiness enters my body.

9 minutes later:
The police and ambulance reach the house and I'm holding Billy, blood all over both of us. The police rush upstairs to find Randy gone. He'd escaped before they got there. But they didn't tell us this, they told us they caught him, but later that might be the death of everyone. Billy and I were lifted and driven to the hospital where we addressed our cuts and wounds. Once we were released we made each other a promise. We promised each other that from now on we would always stick together. We went back to normal, going to school and getting the weird stares from people who knew what we went through. Billy and I love each other, there's no other way to describe the feeling for the one who tried to save you and almost died in the process.
One sunny day I'm walking home, Billy was gonna meet me at my house, when I feel like someone is following me. I start speeding up my pace but the steps still follow. I quickly turn just in time to come face to face with Randy, he wasn't as dead as I though.
