She stood at the river bank and stared at the glistening water. It whispered to her, coaxing her to take a dip. She stripped off her long flowing dress and stepped in.
It was warm and relaxing until she felt the current gave her a tug.
She didn't make much of it before it pulled her under. She tried flapping her arms in the water but to no avail.
There will be no one coming to save her. She made it clear that she didn't want to be followed. She gave in to the water, letting it pulled her under.
To this day no one know what happened to Abby Dunbar.

"Shhhh shh shh shhh. There are people out there," he whispered, pulling her face close to his. She grabbed onto the arms holding her, bloodying them with her wet hand. Her phone fell from her other hand and clattered to the floor. She was quickly turned so that the hand over her mouth held her in a headlock. The other had reappeared quickly with the sound of metal clicking. A cool barrel rested against her throat. "Well, well. What are you doing here little lady?"
The End of Summer
Summer Jacobs knew full well about her town’s tradition. Every year at the end of the summer, a party would be held on school grounds without the knowledge of the parents or the teachers. It had been happening since before Summer was born and never once was anyone the wiser. This year however, everyone was going to find out. Summer had planned a weekend of alcohol, bad decisions and horrendous photo’s which she would later un-tag herself from on Facebook. A whole weekend with her friends at the biggest party of the year, without any worries or parents telling her what to do. So how she ended up trapped in the school with a deranged psycho killing her classmates off one by one, she will never know. It wouldn’t have been as bad if she was trapped on her own. She would have been happier to face the lunatic solo rather than be trapped with a guy who kept using the life or death situation to make passes at her. His theory was being so close to death should definitely loosen her up, and by ‘loosen up’ he definitely meant ‘get naked.’ Along with his friends who between them had the IQ of a baby tree stump, an outcast who probably still had Spiderman bed sheets and the cheerleaders who were more worried about all the blood staining their new white jeans, they had to somehow make it out of there alive. And to think, Summer’s biggest worry that weekend was waking up with a brutal hangover… ©makeandofferComplete

What did that even mean? He chuckled at my deer-in-headlights expression. There was no way I would not remember losing my virginity to Jake. Hell, I'd memorize every second of it. "What do you mean?" I asked slowly, my stomach doing somersaults. Please tell me I'm jumping to the wrong conclusion. Pretty please. "Well," he started, a gleam in his eyes. "First, you grabbed the blanket and ripped it right off of me." I blinked at him, a horrified expression on my face. I slapped his hand away from my hair and turned around. Yup, there it was. Lying on the floor, along with my dignity. He continued solemnly. "And then, you climbed up on top of me." Could you die from your face overheating?
