Emery's POV."Centre of gravity is an point of object through which entire weight of the object may be considered to act."
It was an normal boring class, the teacher tried to explain some kind of laws, which clearly went over my head.
I tried to have a look at the topic, considering may be it will help me to clear my mind but of course Physics isn't the best way to do it.
I kept on staring at the white board, pretending to be a good student and understanding all well but it didn't really help.
I think, may be the teacher had an idea about my brilliant acting skills and started questioning me about the topic.
I didn't utter a single word as, I wasn't able to answer the questions.
"What's wrong Em, are you good?" Lk asks.
"I'm good, just little head ache may be."
My eyes went through Nate and he looked horrible as me, he eyed me a confronting look.
We both were so messed up, it was so difficult to believe what we just did. We both were in our own thoughts.
Suddenly the door was wide opened, with a bang.
Three police officers entered our class, ignoring our teacher.
"Mr. Nathaniel Anderson and Miss. Emery Spencer, you are under arrest for convicting a murder."
Two of the cops, around mid forties grabbed and cuffed us.
"You have right to remain silent. Anything you say will be used against you in court.You have right to have a lawyer during questioning." The head officer says.
We both were almost dragged through our classroom. We could feel many eyes gawking us and talking shit about us.
Tears was trembling through my cheeks, all I wanted was my mom.
I started screaming to the cops, to call my mom.
Mom! Mom! Mom!
Shushhhh! I'm here baby relax, it's nothing, it's just a bad dream, you'll overcome it.
I wake up and see my mom sitting beside me, her hands were caressing my face.
"Em I think you have fever, you were yelling my name, as you used to do when you were kid. I'll get you some medicine, rest well, take a day off." Mom says giving a smile.
"Okay, thanks mom for being with me, I'll be fine." I say in a low tone.
Mom leaves to get me some medicines and breakfast.
My sheets were covered in sweat, I eyes were swollen from last night's crying. As looked myself in the mirror, I could see a Murderer in me.
The details of yesterday's night were so clear in my head. I couldn't believe that we could kill someone....
Flashback to last night's party.
Nate had smashed the head of that monster, blood was oozing out.
I covered my mouth with my hands in shock. Nate threw the rod, with blood still dripping.
He tried to move his body with his legs, to see if he is alive but he was fucking dead.
I was in a severe shock, tears started flowing through my eyes.
Nate came running towards me and gave a tight hug.I couldn't control myself, I started breaking down. Nate hold me, assured me everything will be fine.
"Everything will be fine Em, don't worry, I'll ask my boys to take care of it."Nate assures me.
"How can I be fine, we just killed someone. Our prints are all over his body. The cops are gonna look for us."
"Relax Em, it was just self defence. First we need to get out of here, before someone sees us."
We quickly run towards Nate's car, he was driving as fast as he could.
He slowed down after we were off the radar.
"It was just self defence Em! remember this." Nate says.
He drops me to my home. I avoid everyone by telling them I'm tired.
I change into comfy clothes and crash into my bed crying hard.
Present day.
The images of last night was still playing in my head.
I decided to have a shower thinking it would wash out all my pain. It did help a bit.
The entire day I avoided all, telling them that I'm not feeling well.
I was really sick, not just physically but I was sick of myself, my life.
I wasn't feeling good, the thing was eating me from inside so I decided to meet Nate and texted him to meet me at the park.
At the park.
I was sitting on the most isolated bench, so no one hear us.
Soon Nate arrived, looking same as me.
"How are doing Em!" Nate asks.
"Not good, wish I had stayed at home yesterday. What about you Nate." I ask him.
"Just trying to forget it but you don't worry at all I have it all sorted. My boys took care of it and made sure nobody saw us. We have an alibi too." Nate says.
"What about the camera's, sure it must have recorded us."
"Such places actually doesn't have working cameras. They were just for show. They weren't working we checked them."Nate answers.
That made me little less worried. I hope no one finds us.
"Don't worry Em! Just act normal."
"One more thing Nate, it's not the murder I'm actually afraid off, I saw something yesterday which is hard to explain, I know you would not believe me but its true."
Nate comes a little closer.
"What is it Em?"Nate asks.
" It was not just an normal human, he was different, like an animal. A huge strong monster.
His eyes were flaming red and veins popped out on his face. He was so strong, he was something different." I say to him controlling my tears." Come on Em it's not true, there's nothing like a monster, the eye thing you say must just be your hallucination or it must be the reflection from the lighting of the party. We already have so much shit to put together." Nate laughs.
I actually don't know what's true, Nate must be correct, it must be just the trauma which made me see things but that really didn't satisfy me.
After chatting for hours we left for our home. That talking really helped me lot.
I took some days off from college, to actually see the things in right way.
