The next day Matt saw Connor sitting where June and Tyler had been murdered the previous night.
"Hey Co-" Matt tried to talk to him
"Not now Matt," Connor was still in his suit from last night, he hadn't changed. Matt didn't know if he even left the auditorium or not.
"She's gone," Connor muttered to himself "Dead. Not coming back." he paused and took in a stifled breath "I let Fleur do this. If I had just looked behind me I could've stopped this. I'm a fucking Failure. I LET my own best friend DIE." Connor started crying at this. A voice came from behind them "Connor. Come with me." it was Izzy.
Connor jumped up and wiped the tears off his face. "What do you want?" he asked
"To talk. I need to tell you something."
Connor paused for a moment
"Fine." He walked off with Izzy
A few hours later Connor came back. Matt was siting out in the hall.
"Hey Matt," He seemed cheery again, like nothing had ever happened "Tell me bout yourself, what kinda stuff you like."
Matt was suspicious, Connor was usually never cheery like this
"Uhh...I liked video games a lot I guess, Minecraft was always my favourite. Twig found an old Xbox 360 and is always playing it."
"Cool cool," Connor replied "I loved minecraft too. Where'd you live before you got taken here?"
"Illinois, you?"
"North Carolina, that place sucks." Connor said
"Favourite animal?" Connor asked
"Monkeys. I love monkeys." Matt replied instantly.
"Wait here." Connor said then bolted to his dorm.
After a minute Connor came back holding a plush monkey, it had a pink bowtie and had hearts on it. "Have him." Connor said than gave Matt the plush. "Thanks!" Matt said. Matt put the monkey in his bag and Connor sat back down.
"So," Connor started "Do you think anymore murders will happen soon?"
Matt thought for a moment
"Not unless you kill me!" Matt said jokingly.
Connor laughed awkwardly, like he was actually going to kill Matt, Connor would never. Right?
Connor looked down at his watch
"10 pm already, we should get to bed."
"Yeah." Matt replied, he wasn't particularly tired.
Connor got up and left, Matt followed him.
When Matt woke up the next morning Connor was still asleep.
Matt walked out into the auditorium and saw Izzy.
"Hey Izzy!" Matt greeted her
"Hey Matt, do you know anything about Twig?" Izzy asked
"No, he's usually in his dorm playing video games, why?"
"Because," Izzy started "Connor is always ranting about him to me. Keep an eye out for him."
"Okay..." Matt said then walked away. He tried to brush off Izzy but maybe she could be right, Connor is usually with Izzy.
Later that night Connor asked Matt to talk with him.
"So, I heard Iz-" Matt began before Connor punched him "Connor what the hell!" He shouted before Connor kicked him in the knee. Matt and Connor fought before Connor threw Matt against a wall.
"Connor," Matt said through breaths. His glasses were broken and his nose was bleeding. Connor took out a knife, it was already blood stained
"Connor, I don't like this bit."
