i was walking down to griddy's doughnuts. i'd always stop by there every now and again. it was nice to sit in a quiet place while eating my most favorite dessert
but today was different. i felt this feeling i haven't felt before, like something bad was going to happen. of course, i ignored it like usual.

the door's bell chimed as i walked into the familiar building. i knew every inch of this place. rush hour had just passed and the store was pretty empty. agnes greeted me as she asked for my order. i got my usual chocolate dipped with sprinkles on top. she went to the back of the store to get more change when i heard the door's bell chime once again.

i turned my head to see an average tall boy. he had the most cutest outfit on. i tried not to stare too much since that would be creepy. he took a seat next to me. i waited patiently for agnes to come back, but minutes seemed like hours at this rate. the green eyed boy rang the bell. no answer from agnes.

"is there... anyone working here or what?"
the boy said rather annoyed.

i tried my best not to make eye contact with the boy, because i knew if i did, my face would flame red.

"yeah, there is. she went to the back to go get change but she hasn't came back since."
i said in a low, quiet, voice.

the boy nodded.

"pardon me."
i used my most polite voice as i walked toward the women's bathroom.

i pushed open the door and locked it behind me.

why am i so nervous? you don't even know him yet.
he could be a total asshole without you knowing. you don't even know if you'll seen him again.

your thoughts were interrupted by gunshots in the distance.

i couldn't just stand there. i had to see what the hell was going on. what if the boy was in trouble?

i opened the door quickly to see the mysterious boy on top of the other man's back. he killed him. in plain sight. he didn't even hesitate. he just stabbed him. right in the back of the head. i felt sick.

i then felt a pair of arms wrap around my neck. i kicked and tried to yell but the man put his hand on my mouth. i saw him pull out his gun and put in right next to my head. once the boy saw this, he froze like a deer in headlights.

"put her down." the brunette said.

"not until you come with us." the man from behind me said.

the boy looked at me dead in the eye.

"fine. just— don't hurt her." the boy argued.

"alrig-

the man was cut off by the younger boy tackling him and shooting him with his own gun. as i was released i gasped for air, realized my situation and backed up. the green eyed boy looked up at me.

"listen here kid." he started.

"you tell anyone that-
the boy was interrupted by the sound of police sirens coming toward us. getting louder by the second.

"shit." the boy murmured.

"come with me." he said.

he grabbed me by the hand then ran out the front door. i don't know where i was going, but i knew that this was going to be terrifying to find out what happens next.
