Finneas stood over Cleo's cold body with his arms crossed. I saw him wipe a tear away. He loved her too.

He turned towards me with a flat face,

"Okay So... who saw you leave with her again?"

I shrugged my shoulders and felt myself begin to shake,

"I can't be sure who all saw me...but I know Noah did. Noah will know I did this. That's who Cleo actually loved,"  I started sobbing and Finneas eventually put his arm around my shoulder.

"Billie you have got to take your fucking meds. I am not helping you get out of shit anymore. I've saved your ass so many fucking times but this? Killing someone? I am your brother and if you loved me you would know you're putting me at risk here too."

I nodded and avoided eye contact with him. He was right. I finally found the right response,

"But I would do the same for you."

He gritted his teeth,

"I know...that's why I'm doing it."

We decided to tie some cinder blocks to Cleo's limbs and drop her into a lake about an hour away. For now we wrapped her in a trash bag and carried her to Finneas's truck bed. She was heavier than normal.. I guess that's where they get the term dead weight. Before I covered her face with a trash bag I took one last moment to admire it. Perfection. Perfection that I fucking ruined...like everything else around me.

We drove slowly, we definitely did not want to get pulled over my the police. Not now. I tried to distract myself and played on my phone for most of the ride. I got a call from an unknown number, ignored. Fucking fans or telemarketers, either way I didn't have time right now.

Then they called 10 more times. I answered the 11th phone call on the first ring.

"Hello? Who is this?" I asked.

"Noah. Where the fuck is Cleo? She isn't answering her phone. What did you do to her you fucking psychopath?"

I felt my jaw clench and Finneas looked over to me with a concerned face. He mouthed,

"Stay calm."

I tried.

"Cleo? Oh shit...who knows by now? I took her home and tried to hit it but she turned me down and I left. When did ya last talk to her?" I played that cool...like real cool. I even impressed myself.

Noah paused before saying anything...

"Oh. Okay. I don't know maybe she's just sleeping or upset with me. Did she say she was upset with me? I know she's your ex but I'm kind of in love with her and I don't want to mess things up."

I didn't want anyone in love with my Cleo. Dead or alive. I couldn't help but take off my game face for a minute.

"Yeah she said you came on too strong, but I don't know man. Good luck though, cya."

I hung up.

Finneas looked over at me and raised his eyebrows,

"Really? You're still jealous even after you kill her? Jesus Billie."
