Innocent killer

Chapter 5

It's been a few weeks since Jen's party. I haven't been to her house since. That's a lie. I went one Tuesday but Jason was out luckily. It was coming up to end of term at school meaning more parties. I kind of want Jen to have another just so I can hang out with Jason again. There's just something about him that makes me relax and feel comfortable.

"Tori!" My Spanish teacher yelled, "what is your answer to question 5 please." Oh god. Now I'm under pressure. I hadn't been listening for about 10 minutes and now I've to answer a question. The question was:
Describe your self in a short paragraph.

"Erm... okay." I took a deep breath as the whole class spun to face me, "hola. Me llamo Tori y tengo 16 años. Vivo con mi padre en una casa pequeña!" That translates to hello my name is tori and I am 16 years old. I live with my dad in a small house.

"Muy bien Tori. Muy bien. Vale..." the teacher replied. She continued the lesson - which was sky last one, before the bell rang to signal end of school and end of term. The halls flooded with students aged 11 to 16 all as desperate to leave as the next one. I bumped into Jen who got very excited.

"OMG it's the end of term. Finally can go home and drink every night with my brother and since my parents are away again... PARTY AT MINE TOMORROW!" She calles out and the whole corridor screamed with excitement, "HOWEVER. ONLY YEAR 10's AND 11's ARE WELCOME. I NEED TO HAVE PARENTS PERMISSION FOR YOU TO DRINK SO YEAH!"

A smile suddenly grew on my face and what I said next I never expected to, "umm Jen. My dads going away tonight and doesn't want me to be alo-" I was interrupted by her.

"You're staying at mine. For as long as you like. Stay all week if you want. Fuck it, stay forever lol" I don't know why but that's just what o wanted to hear. I actually hugged her... I hugged Jen.

Hours passed and suddenly Jen pulled up outside my house. I jumped off of my bed and grabbed my bags. Just as I hopped down the stairs my dad appeared.

"Dad I'm off out. I'm staying at a friends house. Could be all week I'm not sure yet. Depends how I feel." I exclaimed.

"You actually made a friend? Go ahead leave this house. Don't bother coming back ever if you want. KILLER!" He shouted that last part as I left the house. Why does he have to still hate me 16 years later? Oh that's right. Because it's my fault everyone I've ever been close to is dead.

Jen was stood by her car as tried asking if I was okay due to what he shouted and the fact I had tears in my eyes but I just told her to take me to her house.
