She doesn't know. I mean how could she, it only happened two day ago. They don't know either. They will never know. I will never tell Them! They would think that I'm nuts but I'm not! She was just in my way and I had to get rid of her. I'm sure that she will understand. I love her and she would never betray me.
I walked into the classroom and smiled at her. She smiled back at me in a kind way and I felt my love for her grow. I started to walk toward her but a group of guys got in my way to see her. I got jealous immediately and reached into my pocket about to pull out my knife still covered in blood. I saw my love stand up and walk away before they even said a word. I smiled and let go of the knife and slowly pulled my hand out of my pocket to make it look like i never had my hand in it. I headed to my seat and sat down just as the teacher walked in. I looked out of the window and tuned out the teacher and stared to day dream.
It was lunch and we were eating in the classroom. I made my way to her with a smile on my face. Once I got to her I took a moment to admire her beauty. She had wavy brownish-blonde hair that fell to the middle of her back. She was pale and had forest green eyes. Her skin was perfect with no acne or scares."Hey Caleb how are you?" she asks.
"Good how are you?" I reply. "I'm good thanks." she says with a smile that could light up a whole room.
"Where is Caty? Isn't she in this class? I haven't seen her all day." I say with concern.
"I was wondering what happened to her to to. I haven't seen her yet and she never misses school." My love says with mild concern.
" I hope that she is alright Aurora, maybe she just got a sudden cold" I say with a smile.
"Yeah, your most likely right." She says and I walk back to my seat because lunch was over. I thought back to two nights ago when I got rid of her best friend because she was in my way. I smiled slightly and out of the corner of my eye I saw that the group of guys from earlier were glaring at me. I faked being scared and rushed over to my seat. When I saw that the boys stopped staring at me I slowly let a smile on my face.
It was the end of the day and I was walking home alone when I heard multiple foot steps behind me. I started to walk faster and faster until I was in a full sprint but I still heard the foot steps behind me. I turned around a corner and found myself at a dead end. I turned around and faced the boys that were in my class.
"Hey there kid, what were you doing talking to Aurora." The leader of the group says.
"W-w-what do-o-o you mean? W-w-we were just t-t-talking." I stuttered
"Well I don't want you near my girl, kid." He says. When that guy called Aurora his girl something in me snapped.
"What do you mean your girl." I say in a harsh tone that surprises the guy.
" Wow, looks like the kid has some balls. Lets teach him what happens when your mean to someone like me." He says to me and his group started to laugh. He advanced towards me and so did the rest of his group. I reached into my pocket and grabbed the knife. As soon as he got close enough I pulled out the knife before he even knew what was happening. I quickly stabbed him in the stomach. His eyes showed his surprise.
"What are you?" He asks as his eyes go glassy and he falls to the ground dead. I turn around and look at the rest of his group. They look ar me in fear but that fear quickly turns to anger and all of them rush at me. I smile and start to kill them all one by one. Everything went by in a blur and there was only one left. Everyone else is dead at my feet. The last guy started to run away but I pulled out my knife from a body and chucked it at him. The sound of the knife hitting his back made a thump. When he fell to the ground I smiled in triumph.
I looked at all of the bodies around me and counted six. There was blood all over the place so I started to clean up. I made sure that know one could find the bodies and I made it look like nothing happened here. My watch started to beep telling me that I am late for dinner. I rushed out of the ally and go on the side walk. I look around and realize that it is a bright sunny day. I smile and start to walk home humming a song
When I walk into my house everything is quiet. I don't hear my Mom in the kitchen or my Dad watching T.V.. The further I get into the house the more worried I become.
"Mom, Dad where are you?" I ask. When I get no reply I start to run all through the house. When I get to the living room there is a man in all black sitting in one of our chairs. I start to run away but I am blocked because there is a man standing in my way.
"Come here Caleb I would love to talk to you." the man dressed in all black says. I walk into the living room and I see that both of my parents are tied up and sitting on the couch. I run over to my mom and fall to my knees in front of her.
"Are you alright Mom? Did that man hurt you?" I say with tears in my eyes. She shakes her head no because she had duck tape over her mouth.
"Of course she is fine Caleb. I would never hurt my sons Mother." The man in the black says. I look at him like he is nuts because it can't be true.
"How can you be my Dad when he is tied up? I ask.
"It's because that is your adoptive Father and i am your real Father." Then he pulls out a police badge and walks over to me. He takes out handcuffs and the man behind me grabs me so that I wouldn't try to run away or hurt my "Father". As soon as he got me handcuffed he lead me over to a seat and sat me down.
"We found the body of Caty Edison and confirmed that you were the one that killed her. We also found the bodies of the group of men that you killed today. I am arresting you for murder and anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law." my Father says. The other strange man picked me up by the arms and dragged me to the car. As soon as I got in he slammed the door shut and got in with my "Father". I saw my Mom run out which is good because that means that they let them go. When we started to drive away there were two things on my mind. One was that i hope Aurora will see me in prison and the second thing is that I was wondering what i do when I get out.
