Tight Rope

Chapter 7

~Rikki's Pov~

I saw that I had the murderer paper and I was quite happy. I knew exactly how to play this game without getting caught and I knew how I would win.

"Niall, we should team up," I whispered quietly as we all walked off to start the count down. He just looked at me and smiled innocently. Oh poor child.

"3, 2, 1" We all chanted and with that I ran with Niall to my room.

"Woah, this is really cool." Niall said running and jumping on my bed. I laughed. Everyone thought my room was cool because I had tons of old arcade games but the best part was the bed. It had a trampoline in it.

"Watch this," I laughed, getting on to it and then started jumping. I was jumping high and Niall soon joined in. "Wait Niall, we got to go find the killer or stay away from him." I said stopping jumping. And with that we went out and went to the closet not many people saw. "Niall stay here, I am going to go scope out and will be back any moment.

I quickly ran out and down to the living room, and as I did, I saw Zayn walking around. I'm gonna miss him, and with that I quickly snuck around him and slit his throat quietly. Once he found out what happened, he instantly sat down and looked at me like a sad puppy. Aweeee I feel bad now. But instead I tiptoed down the stairs.

"You are so mean.." I heard Zayn whisper.

As I got down the stairs, I carefully looked around and saw Harry walking into the bathroom, purrrfect. Haha I'm so punny. With that I followed Harry and quickly stopped him from using the toilet.

"Harry, Zayn was sitting upstairs, I don't know who did it but there is one down for sure." I whispered.

"Shit, ok, stay by me." And with that I nodded and followed him out the bathroom, but before we got far, I silently slit his throat.

"What!" Harry screamed, and I quickly covered him mouth.

"Shu up, your fault for trusting me and not asking me to show my paper." I giggle.

"Harry! Are you ok?" I heard Liam run down the stairs." With that I went and hid behind the couch and waited. "Harry, you are out too! Shit, so is Zayn, and plus I can't find Niall and Louis and Rikki, one of them is the killer I just can't figure it out," Liam exclaimed and with that I snuck up behind him and slit his.

"Well played Harry, thanks for helping me." I wink, walking back up the stairs and went to my room. "Niall, you in here?" I whispered walking in my closet.

"Yeah, I am right here." He said, flashing the light on his phone, poor kid. And with that I cut him out of the game next. Four down, one to go, and with that I set out to find Louis.

~Louis's Pov~

I saw Rikki, slit Zayn's throat in the game, I had been in the kitchen getting food. Then heard Harry and Liam and laughed at myself, gullible people. She continued to walk upstairs where she must have gotten Niall because she quickly skipped down the stairs. Shit I need to find somewhere to go. The garage!! I quickly ran out back and went into the garage and laid down in her car.

"Louis, will you just come out please, I don't want to have to go in here." I heard Rikki, say, walking into the garage. I knew that was a trick too, I must stay silent! But the worst possible thing happened. She opened the door to the car. Thankfully I am in the back seat, because you can't reach that far, from the sides.

"Rikki, I will not come out." I laugh, sitting to the opposite side.

"Louis please, I don't want to get in the car." Rikki begged, pulling a sad face, damn that's hard to say no.

"No." I smirk, sitting in my spot.

"Ugh, Louis, once I get in here I am killing you, literally," She laughed, she has a pretty smile. With that she crawled into the car, crawling towards me, trying to get to my throat. I quickly grabbed her hand and held it above my head. She then sent the other one at me, faster this time but I quickly caught it and held it up, accidently pulling her on me.

"Sorry," I mumbled, holding her hands up above my head.

"It's ok." She blushed, looking at me. And with that, I took a risk, and pulled her closer, closing the gap between our lips, and locking lips with her. And let me tell you, it was a damn good kiss. We pulled away and I looked in her eyes, blushing. Rikki was blushing and mumbled something I couldn't understand, but before I knew it she slit my throat for the game. Damn it! I completely forgot about that. But I don't care, and I pulled her back down for another kiss. I can't get enough of this.

"Louis," Rikki said pulling away, she blushed and quickly got off of me and crawled out of the car, running back inside. What did I do?
