After a couple of minutes of plain silence, Kevin, the popular one but quiet one, turned over to Rebekah, and said

-What are we going to with her and with his body?

But Rebekah kind of just gave the look, the shut up and stop talking look to Kevin. After a minute or two, Rebekah looked at Kevin, and kind of gave a signal that he should go and get me. Luckily I saw the look before Kevin did, and ran, as quietly and discretly as I could, into the attic. If you hadn't explored around the house before, it is a bit hard to see the attic, because it is quite camouflaged with boxes and dust and spiders and well, I think you get the idea, so I ran into over to the side where there was a window and saw Jordan, Jordan was a boy that I have been crushing on for years, I saw him and started to bang on the window as hard as I could. He saw me, after a couple of weird looks, Jordan gave me the that cringey hello, you know the one that they nod they're head and give you a weird hello smile? Well I got that, you're a weirdo banging on a window and being weird at me kind of look, you know? So I knew that he must have thought that I was weird and not a girl who had just killed a guy and in that moment being held captive in her own house!
I heard Kevin say
-I can't find her anywhere Beks
But she just shouted back up
-Well she is up there somewhere you fat blob.
I felt bad for Kevin, I didn't think that he wanted to be there, just like Archie,  but I heard the creaking of the attic door open, and he said
-pss Daisy, are you in here, I'm not going to hurt you I promise, I'm going to help you, quickly before Rebekah comes
And I belived him.
-Kevin, I'm beside the window.
In the two minutes that we had before Archie came looking for us, he had explained everything to me, about the blood, about the gang, about how he was actually the "leader" and that they had never killed any kid or person ever.
-Rebekah wants you dead, you saw her kill that other teenager, if you tell the police, she will be sentenced for life. When and possibly whe we get out of this house, you can come and live with me, I live in the center, but no one actually knows that I live by myself, except for you, so I hope you can trust me.
And I did trust him.
I had grabbed an old baseball bat that we had, and started going over slowly to the door, I heard people in my room, in mum and dad's rooms, in the bathroom, and one right outside the attic door. I looked behind me, to look at Kevin, and he gave me a nod, that nod meant that I had to open up the door and hit whoever was behind that door. I took a couple of breathers, and as fast as I could, I slammed open the door, and it was poor Archie, and I lifted up the bat, with my eyes closed, and hit whoever was behind the door as hard as I could, hitting Archie right in the mouth, and in the head, then, because I hit him so hard, he tumbled over the banister and fell until he hit the floor. I saw his face on panic when he was falling, I screamed
-noooooo
But it was to late, the impact had killed him. I tumbled to the floor, and started crying, Kevin comforted me, but I couldn't get that terrified look out of my head. He was the only one who looked sorry for me when they were tying me up, and I just killed him for nothing.

Kevin saw that Rebekah and her friends were coming over, so he picked me up of off the floor and carried me down the stairs. He opened up the front door and went running over to his car, he unlocked it,  lput me in the passenger seat, buckled me up, then he went in the drivers seat, turned on the engine, and was about to accelerate, when Rebekah came out of the house, and threw a butcher's knife right at the car...
