RIPPER

Roman Halleck

I rang the doorbell and took a deep breath as I waited for her to open the door.

I needed to make sure she's alright.

The door opened and Claire smiled at me.

"Hey" I smiled at her.

"Hey" She smiled back.

"I'm sorry for bothering you" I sighed.

"No it's okay.. Why are you here??" She smiled.

"I'm here to make sure you're okay" I smiled.

"I'm okay" She blushed.

"Good" I smiled at her.

"Do you wanna come in?? I bought snacks.. I had trauma making snacks so I just bought them" She smiled.

"Sure!" I smiled as I entered the motel she's currently staying.

"our house is now a crime scene.. I don't even know if I could go back.. Looking at my living room I can never get Mike's lifeless body laying on the floor out of my head" She sighed.

"I'm sorry" I sighed.

"Hey! Don't be! It's nice of you to check on me.. Most of them just think I'm the killer" She sighed.

"I know you're not the killer Claire" I smiled at her.

"That's nice of you Roman.. I really hope they'll catch the killer.. I'm tired living in trauma" She sighed.

"Have you heard about the rumors??" I asked.

"About what??" She asked.

"About Jason's father and how he molested some kid at school" I sighed as I showed her a tweet of an unknown account.

"Oh fuck.. Maybe that could be the killer" She stared at me.

"Marcus and I reported this.. So they can trace whoever made this account" I smiled at her.

"Can I ask you a question Roman??" She looked at me.

"Sure! What is it??" I asked.

"Are Marcus and Jason together??" she asked.

"Right now?? Yeah.. Marcus went to Jason's house after Maggie threatened Jason.. Maybe Maggie is the killer" I looked at her.

"No.. I mean are they dating??" She asked.

"Uhm.. No! They're just close that's all" I smiled at her.

"Oh" she blushed.

"So.. Which one do you like??" I smiled.

"Excuse me??" She frowned.

"Well you sounded so relieved when Jason and Marcus are not dating.. So which one of them do you like?? " I smiled

"Jason" She blushed.

"Cool!" I smiled back.

Suddenly we heard a noise and a loud knock on the door.

"are you expecting someone Claire??" I asked.

"No" She looked at me nervously.

Suddenly we heard a loud bang.

"Go grab a knife" I whispered at Claire.

She nodded nervously as she walked slowly towards the kitchen.

The doors continued to bang and Claire returned with knives on both of her hands.

My hands trembled as the door continued to bang.
