Eye Candy

Chapter 11

I'm at Amy's house while she's gone out with Jason. Im bored out of my mind and don't know what to do, I suddenly hear someone knocking at the door. I got exited and I rush to see who it is. They knock harder to no response. "I'm coming!" I scream. I open the door and another guy ( Patrick ) I met from the meet and greet is here. He has a slight British accent, very sweet and kind. "hey". he says, smiling. "Hey." I reply back awkwardly, smiling as well. "How did you know where I live?" I ask him but he holds up some flowers ignoring my question. "These are for you". He hands me the flowers and smiles. He then hold up a brown bag filled with something.

"I'm here to cook for you also". he says smiling, I smile back kind of curious.

"Can I come in?" He asks.

"Yea sure". I open my door wider and he walks in. As he's talking, chopping some mushrooms I watch the knife. you can't be so sure with kind people. Suddenly, Amy and Jason walk through the door.

"Oh hey guys, I thought you were going out". i say curiously, staring at them both.

"We did and now we're back". Amy says staring at me and Patrick curious as to why he's here.

"Okay... Umm Patrick this is my friend Amy and her mate Jason. Amy and Jason this is Patrick from the meet and greet I had". Amy looks at the table.

"Are you cooking?" She asks Patrick, looking shocked. "Is he cooking?" She asks me after Patrick doesn't say anything.

"Yea, I surprised Lindy". Patrick says, after taking years to answer. "Have you guys eaten?" He asks Amy and Patrick pointing the knife at them.

"No". Amy and Jason say together. I pull Amy to the bathroom and leave Jason and Patrick in the kitchen. We get to the bathroom and I slam the door shut.

"Thank god your here". I say to Amy in a sign of relief.

"Why, what's going on?" she says looking concerned.

"I had plans to meet him somewhere else, by then he showed up with groceries and I couldn't exactly tell him to leave".

"Yes, you could and who just shows up with groceries? That is really weird". I look around, feeling guilty.

"Okay, I need you to be straight up with me right now, is there a serial killer in my house right now?" she asks, lowering her voice even more. I shake my head and bite my lip. "I don't think so". I whisper to her back.

"So is he still a suspect?" She asks, very serious.

"Not exactly". I respond.

"Not exactly? Then what exactly is he?" She asks looking concerned.

"He could be the one who melted the girl's face off." We hear a knock at the bathroom door and open it, its Jason.

"I really don't think your gentleman caller came to hang with me." he says peeking his head through the door whispering.

"What is he doing?" Amy asks. Jason comes in and closes the door.

"Same thing he was doing when yall left... cooking".

"Okay like normal people cooking or serial killer cooking?" Amy asks. He comes in and closes the door.

"Like someone who wants to impress her". he says pointing at me.

"You weren't invited". I say to him with a slight attitude.

"Okay Jason this is a really stressful situation so I need you to behave". Amy says to him. "Listen to me for a second." Jason says looking at me and Amy. "this beautiful man might be hiding something, he might not be who he says he is. He could totally mess with with your life." Jason says to me and Amy putting his hand on her shoulder and she looks at me and say "we'll stay". I smile forms on my face in happiness. "omg yay! I did not want to be here with someone that could possibly kill me, thanks". Then we walk out the door, we all sit down for dinner and chat for a bit. I get up and go to the bathroom and come back then everybody's sitting on the couch. Any is laughing and she says "your funny". pointing at Patrick. She sees me and says "he's funny". Patrick phone buzzes. He looks at it and says "that's my cab, sorry but I have to go guys". He gets up and so does Amy and Jason. He shakes Jason's hand and hugs Amy goodbye and walks pass me heading outside. "I'll be right there" I tell to him. Amy and Jason walk towards me after he leaves.

"Well, he didn't slit our throats so that's a good start". Amy says. Jason comes up to me and whispers in my ear "Murderer or not he's hot." i laugh then walk out the door following Patrick. A taxi waiting on him. "goodnight" he says, then gives me a hug and kisses my cheek. I look across the street and there is officer ton watching me. I frown. "goodnight". I say then watch him get in the cab and leave. Officer Tom immediately walks my way, looking disappointed.

"You again". I tell him, with a little attitude and my eyebrows coming together.

"What was that?" He says with his arms by his side.

"Non of your business". I tell him.

"Is this all some type of game to you?" He asks.

"Detective jake was in his office all day when his day was killed". he tells me. I look at him with shock.

"Whoever this guy is he's out there somewhere watching... killing" he says in a slow tone. I stare at him with a blank face for a minute then reply.

"You think I don't know that?" I ask him, unbothered.

"Lindy, you need to stop this and let the police and detectives do their job". I start walking away slowly , backwards. Now annoyed.

"This doesn't make any sense". I whisper to him then turn around and walk away for good.

... LATER THAT NIGHT ...

I'm at my work place on the computer when one of my friends who is also an employee here walks in. I've been waiting on him forever. He's also a Friend that has been helpful.

"What took you so long?" I ask him. he's supposed to help me. "You know it's like 3am right? ... but anyways what are you doing?" He asks.

"I need you to help me back into the city cameras. Specific blocks, specific times." I tell him, hesitating.

"No lindy, that's so illegal". he says, disagreeing. I look at him waiting for a response.

"Alright I love it". he says then sitting down in the chair in front of me, that also has a computer. I smile.

"Oh yes". he says all of a sudden. I look at him waiting on the password.

"I'm forcing my way in. Looks like a weak 12 digit password". he says looking at me then back to his computer. I continue waiting patiently.

"You ready?". He asks.

"Yea". I say shaking my head yes , still looking at him.

"Zinggummybear133215potatomeow65lizard". he says really fast, then spins around in his chair like he won the lottery.

"You know that doesn't qualify as a 12 digit password or in the alphabet, right?" I ask him, staring kind of giggling.

"Umm.. does to me". he says then laughs. I try the password and it works.

"I'm in". I tell him He gets up and comes on my side to view the cameras as well.

"He killed the girl at the spa around 4pm. These cameras show the surrounding streets". I say , pointing at it.

"Ahhh.. gotcha". he agrees. I continue looking at the cameras finding information and boom! I found it.

"You see that?" I ask Heidi. ( co workers name )

"No" he says. On the screen cars are lined up. In the middle theres a huge space in between. I click the left arrow on the keyboard to move away from the street, then click the left button back and a car is there.

"Parking spot here, camera spins off and now the space Is filled". I explain to him.

"Giving him enough time to enter the back of the spa". I say shaking my head.

"It's his car... I know it's his car". I say silent after that rising my eyebrow.
