MARINA

I knew what this special agent lady was thinking about. She was looking at my lips that were stained with red lipstick. She was silently accusing me of killing them because I was wearing the same color of lipstick the killer used to draw those symbols.

For the first time since everything had happened, I was terrified.

What if all the evidence is pointing at me for a reason? What if I did murder those boys and didn't remember?

No, that's impossible. I was not a murderer. Besides, I liked Jason. He was the one who was nice to me. We kissed, and everything was wonderful. So why was he dead? Why?

"Are you okay? You look pale," Special Agent Danna commented. "Did I rattle with my s

    MARINA"Is this really okay?" Logan said as he took my shirt off.I nodded. "I want to be with you," I said. I didn't know where all my confidence was coming from, but I wanted him to go farther than just kissing. I wanted him to touch me all over and make me feel more. Maybe I just wanted to feel him so I could forget about all the horror that was happening around me."Wait," I whispered as he started to kiss my body.He looked up, and I saw sadness in his eyes. "Do you want me to stop?"I almost laughed. Does he think I'm asking him to stop? "No, I just wanted to say that...it's risky. If I'm too loud, my mom might hear us from her bedroom."Logan chuckled lightly. "Then I guess you better make sure you don't moan too much," he leaned down and kissed my cheek.I shivered. "Easy for you to say," I whined. I let out a soft moan as he lightly touched one of my nipples with his tongue. "I can't help it," I said.He took my hand.

    MARINAI instinctively looked at myself as soon as I woke up. I sighed in relief. There was no blood.But Logan was gone. I was suddenly worried. I didn't remember saying goodnight to him last night. I never saw him leave. My body was so exhausted that I couldn't keep my eyes open.What if something happened to him. What if I killed him and forgot about it? Maybe that's what happened with the others.I laughed out loud. I was being ridiculous now.I put some clothes on and left the house. I had a class in a few hours, so I figured I'd start walking now. I couldn't wait to find a job so I could save enough money and buy a car. Walking to school every day was tiring, and relying on my mother for money was not fun.I almost screamed when I saw Logan standing outside my house and smiling. Relief washed all over my body. He wasn't dead!I ran into his arms and kissed him passionately."Mmm...I could get used to this every morning,"

    "Dawn?" Logan raised his eyebrows."Yes, how do you know her?" I asked.Logan hesitated. "It's nothing. We kind of had a thing," he said.I looked at him with surprise. Somehow, I couldn't imagine Logan having a thing with Dawn. It's not that she was out of his league or anything. On the contrary, Logan was handsome with his piercing gray eyes and sharp jaw. He could easily get any girl if he really tried, but somehow I couldn't imagine him trying. Especially not with a girl like Dawn, who was a little out there."What? You don't believe me?" He chuckled."I do. I just don't understand. How did you meet her, and why didn't you tell me?" I asked.Logan shrugged. "It was nothing, really. I met her at a summer camp last year, and we had a short fling. She wanted to continue dating afterward, but I didn't feel like having a long-distance relationship with her, so I said no. I had no idea she was going to move into this university.""So, y

    LOGANI needed to do something about Dawn. She was starting to become a nuisance.I couldn't let her ruin the relationship between Marina and me. I waited too long for this, so there was no way I would let Dawn break us apart. What Marina and I have is special, and nothing could come between us. I wouldn't allow it.And the night I spent with Marina was amazing. It was everything I had ever dreamt about.I decided to message Dawn and ask her to meet up in secret. At first, she said no. I guess she is pissed off about Marina. She probably felt like I replaced her with Marina. Oh well, it's not like I owed her anything. I wasn't lying when I said Dawn and I only had a fling and nothing else.She agreed to meet me at the park near my house, which surprised me. Wasn't she worried about meeting me alone? She should really be more careful. It was also starting to get dark outside."So, what's so urgent that you called me here so late?" she asked o

    MARINA"Who was at the door?"It took me a while to make up excuses for my mother, so I didn't have to deal with her cursing me out.Oh no, she wouldn't stop at cursing. She would make sure this time I would be gone for good. She had kept me around all this time because she needed someone to take care of the house and her, but I'm sure she was dying to get rid of me.I never understood why. Why did she hate me so much? What did I do to deserve the way she treats me?These questions I had asked her for years but never got a clear answer.The next day, I left home and expected Logan to wait for me, but he wasn't there. His car was missing too. He was already gone.Disappointment washed over me. Was he tired of me already?No, that didn't make any sense. It has only been a day since we got together. How can he be tired of me already?I walked to school like usual and went to all my classes. I looked around the campus in bet

    MARINAI picked up the camera then instantly regretted it. I shouldn't have touched it. What if I contaminated the evidence? Wait, calling it evidence would suggest that Logan was...No, no, it can't be. Logan was fine. Nothing bad happened to him, I said to myself, then started to look around."Whose camera is this? It looks expensive. And is this blood on it?" Steven said and poked his head over my shoulder to take a look."It's my friend's camera," I said flatly and stared at it."Oh shit! Is he hurt?" Steven gasped.No, I don't believe this, I thought in my head instead of answering Steven. I needed to find Logan, and I needed to find him soon. Even if he wasn't dead, he could be hurt somewhere."Come with me," I said and motioned Steven to follow me. I felt bad for getting him involved in my mess, but I didn't feel like being alone right now.We walked through the backyard. It was huge and led to the woods. A million quest

    DAWN"Just calm down, would you?" Logan said as he was staring at me with a mocking glance.I stared back at him with fiery eyes as he accused me of murders."Don't tell me to calm down after accusing me of doing horrible things. How dare you tell me that I killed those boys? What possible reason would I have to kill them? Huh, tell me."How should I know? Logan said. The way you're acting, you sound kind of crazy," he said."Fuck you, Logan. You have no right to accuse me. You are the one who had been creeping around stalking girls, especially Marina. Does she know you follow her around like a little puppy and take pictures of her in secret?" I screamed."You can't prove that. But I can prove that you've been stalking those guys. I can take these pictures to the FBI, and you will be the number one suspect and not Marina. All I have to do is show these pictures to them, so they know you were with Eddie last," Logan said.I smiled beca

    MARINA "This way." Miles motioned me to follow him, so I did. We kept going in and into the woods. I didn't know where he was heading. "Where are we going?" I asked. "Did you not notice the drops of blood on the ground?" he said. I looked at him with surprise. "What blood?" I asked. "Not very observant, are you?" Miles smirked. "Look over there," he said and pointed toward the ground. I looked and saw what he was talking about. I couldn't believe I didn't notice before, but tiny splatters of blood were on the leaves and along the path, leaving a trail. "I had no idea. How did you see that?" I was amazed. "Well...unlike you, when we got to this spot, I looked at the ground closely, and I saw the blood," Miles said dryly. "Wha...what does it mean?" I asked. My heart was pounding. "It means someone hurt someone and carried them somewhere else. They must've been bleeding, which is why there's

    LOGAN I squinted as the sunlight assaulted my eyes. "Ugh! It's too bright," I groaned. "You are the only person who complains on a sunny day like this," Marina said and laughed. "Whatever, let's just go inside," I suggested. It has been four months since the whole ordeal went down. Things had calmed down since Dawn or Maya was charged with all those murders. This town was peaceful again. Marina and I decided to move in together after I was released from the hospital. Well…she was the one who suggested it. She visited me every day until I was healed and took good care of me, so I couldn't say know. Besides, I was in love with her so I couldn't say no. Things were going great, but one thing always bugged me. Dawn had confessed to the police about all the people she killed, including those in her old hometown, but every time they questioned her about Marina's mother, and why she killed her, she denied it. She told them she

    MARINAI stood there and didn’t know how to respond. Jason was brutally murdered for no reason, and it was because of me.“What is wrong with you!” I screamed.“Oh, sweetie. You don’t know the half of it,” she said mockingly. She stepped forward to get closer to me. “They all had to die, and now is your turn. I even killed the one person who cared about me, so I won’t let you leave here alive.”“Who?” I asked. I was curious even at a time like this. How many people had she killed so far?Dawn’s eyes turned dark. “Aaron. He was in love with me. He knew about all the things I did, but he never judged me, but this time he wanted to turn me in. I couldn’t let him, so I had to let him go. I still regret it.”She is too far gone, I realized. Here I thought my mother was the craziest woman I had ever made, but I was standing in front of a total psycho. At leas

    MARINAI released a deep sigh as the warm water soothed my skin. I was sore all over as Logan fucked me to his heart's content.I nearly fell over as I felt a pair of arms around me from behind."Shh... it's just me," Logan whispered against my neck."Logan! I'm not done with the shower yet," I whimpered as he put his hand between my legs."That's okay. I need one too," Logan chuckled and cupped my breasts. I could feel his erection rubbing against my back.I moaned as he rubbed my clit with his fingers, stroking me slowly and carefully. I was growing wet down there, and I know it wasn't from the shower."Logan...ahh...that feels good," I said between moaning."You are so beautiful," he growled and rubbed me faster.My body shook as little as I felt tingly spasms all over my body."Put your hands on the wall," he ordered.I blushed and did as he asked. I could feel his hands all over me. They were warm, alm

    DAWNI decided it was time to do something about Logan Hill. I thought they would suspect him since he was a creepy-ass bastard, so I was excited when they took him in. But it was all wrong because all the evidence wasn't pointed at him. The only reason they took him in was that he was found near Aaron's dead body while trespassing.I knew it wasn't enough evidence to lock him up, but that's okay because there was a second suspect.Marina.She was seen with all the victims right before they died, and she discovered two of the dead bodies. Those bodies were even marked with her lipstick. So it was a no-brainer that she was the one who killed all of them. I hope it was enough for the FBI to investigate her. I knew they had already questioned her several times. I wish they would do something sooner as I was still upset about Aaron.I loved Aaron. He was more than just a maid's son to me. And I knew he loved me back. He always tried to take care of me.

    MARINASo, this is what it’s like to have your own space and freedom? I thought as I walked around the empty house.With my mother being gone, it was just me now. It was peaceful.It was the weekend, and I didn’t have any classes, so I slept in as much as I wanted. Normally, I would be up early in the morning to make her breakfast, then clean and dust the entire house until it was spotless.No more.When I woke up, the first thing I did was pack some of her things into a box. Then I made some calls to her sister to make arrangements for the funeral. I’m assuming it wouldn’t be an open casket with all those wounds on her body.I was hungry during the midafternoon, so I started to cook some spaghetti while humming my favorite Disney tune. I was in heaven.The phone started ringing. I took one look and frowned when I saw agent Danna’s number. Dammit…I was having such a nice day!“Can I he

    DAWNMiles walked in with a stupid grin on his face. I looked at special agent Danna, who narrowed her eyes to a slit. Logan was back in the living room, followed by Danna's partner. His eyes turned wide when he saw Miles."Is someone going to tell me what's going on? Why is everyone looking like they had just seen a ghost?" Miles asked with his voice full of amazement."Miles, you're alive," I exclaimed"Yes, I'm alive, last time I checked. Was I supposed to be dead?" He asked."We, I mean Logan, found your dead body in the shed. You were missing your head," I said even though I knew I sounded stupid as we all know that it wasn't miles in the shed."Well, now you know I'm alive, and my head is intact," Miles joked, then turned serious immediately. "Wait, what body?" he asked."Ahem," Special Agent Donna cleared her throat to get our attention. "Alright, so it looks like we've made a mistake. You're clearly not dead, so that body belo

    MARINAA strong smell woke me up. A strong, metallic smell. I sat up on my bed and looked around as I was confused. It was dark in my room, so I couldn’t see anything at first, but I felt uneasy and…icky. Almost as if I was dirty.I touched my face then my neck and felt something sticky on me. I frowned and got out of the bed immediately, then turned on the light.The smell was familiar. The sticky feeling was familiar.I looked down at my arms and body and gasped. I was covered in blood again.What happened this time?It doesn’t matter. Whatever happened, I had nothing to do with it. I was sure of it. I needed to go take a shower and then figure everything out later.So I hopped in the shower and started to scrub all the blood off. I didn’t finish until every inch of my body was squeaky clean then came out. I looked at the time. It was only 9:30 pm.I tried to remember when I went to sleep but couldn&r

    DAWNI was screaming hysterically when I realized someone was shaking me. I tried to squint my eyes so I could see through my tears, but everything was blurry.“Dawn! DAWN! Stop yelling. Get a hold of yourself!” someone was saying.Oh, that’s right. It was Logan. He was here, and he killed Miles.“Get away from me!” I cried.“Dawn, I didn’t kill him. You know I couldn’t have,” Logan said. He had a look of despair on his face.“You didn’t kill him, my ass! Who else would it be?” I said with gritted teeth. I fumbled inside my jeans pocket and looked for my phone. I need to call the police before he kills me too.“Dawn, you lied to Marina and the police. You told them I hit you with my camera. Why did you do that?” he asked. “Did you kill him? Did you kill your own brother just so you could frame me? Why? Why do you hate me so much?&rd

    LOGANI know that bitch Dawn is trying to frame me, but I won't let her ruin my life like this. I just hope that Marina does not believe her over me.But when I looked into Marina's eyes, I saw doubt. It looked like she wanted to believe me, but she wasn't sure. I couldn't blame her.All the evidence was pointing at me. So how do I convince her that I didn't kill anyone or hit Dawn on the head? I would never do something so stupid and hurt someone like that.I needed to confront Dawn and ask her myself. But how would I do it when police were after me already?When I saw them at my front door, I ran out of the neighborhood and went to my friend Elmer's House. Elmer didn't ask me a lot of questions and let me stay with him for the night but told me that I needed to figure things out in the morning. He didn't want to get involved with my mess and become an accessory to a crime or something. I didn't blame him either.I got up and decided
