"Hey, over here!" Ali shouted from across the street.
I smiled and started to walk toward her. It has been almost a week since I moved into this neighborhood and Ali was my only friend so far.
"What do you wanna do today?" she asked.
"Let's go by the lake again," I said.
"Are you sure? Those kids might be there," Ali asked.
I grew quiet. Some kids from our school have been teasing me and making fun of me since I moved here. They usually hang out by the lake around this time.
"Yes, I'm sure, but I can't let them get to me," I said confidently.
"Okay, let's go," she said and we headed there.
I saw some of the kids from our school swimming and fishing at the lake. I wanted to say hi but resisted the urge. There was no point in drawing attention to myself.
"Hey there!" I turned around and saw Marcus DeMarco smiling at me. He was one of the cutest boys in my school who never paid any attention, so I was a little surprised that he was talking to me.
"Um...hey," I said nervously.
"You are new, right?" he asked.
"Y...yeah?" I asked.
"You are cute." he smirked.
"You think so?" I was surprised.
"Why wouldn't I?" He gave me a puzzled look.
"Uh, maybe because you act like she doesn't exist in school?" Ali spoke suddenly, breaking the spell.
"Oh, I'm sorry about that! Anyway, I just came here to say hello. A bunch of us are having a bonfire later today, so I was wondering if you'd like to join us?" he gave me his boyish grin again. His cute dimples on the cheeks were to die for.
"We'd love to!" I spoke before Ali had the chance to refuse.
"But..." Ali hesitated.
"Well then, I'll see you there," he winked and left.
"Dude, what the hell," Ali glared at me.
"What?" I wasn't sure why she was so mad.
"Why did you agree to go to the bonfire? You know how those kids treat you! This could be a trap," she said.
"Or maybe Marcus is just being nice," I shrugged.
"You are so naive. He is not a nice guy," Ali declared.
"Look, if you don't wanna go, then don't go. I am going to that bonfire," I said firmly.
"Fine, do what you want. Don't come crying to me if something," Ali said and walked away.
I couldn't believe Ali. I thought she would be happy for me. I was finally getting invited to a get-together and she wasn't willing to support me. Whatever, I don't need her anyway.
I stayed by the lake until it got dark and waited for them to start the bonfire. Pretty soon, a bunch of kids from our school gathered around and started the party. I decided to muster up the courage to join them finally.
"What the fuck is piggy doing here?" Kelly pointed at me and shouted.
"No one invited your fat ass!" Aaron screamed and some of the guys started to laugh.
"Shut up Aaron! Marcus invited me!" I shouted back.
"I didn't know Marcus was into disgusting piggies," one of the girls said. I forgot what her name was.
I didn't understand why these kids were so mean to me. So what if I was a little overweight? They had no right to be pushing me around. It doesn't matter, I need to find Marcus and it'll be all okay.
I spotted him drinking beer by the lake and walked over to him. He smiled when he looked at me, making my heart flutter.
"Hey, you made it!" he said.
"Thank you for inviting me. I don't think your friends like me very much," I said and motioned to Kelly and the other kids who were making snorting sounds at me.
"Don't worry about them. They are just immature kids. I am glad you came," he said and moved closer to me.
"Why don't we go somewhere a little quieter? Would that be okay?" he asked.
"Yeah...that's fine," I blushed.
He took my hand and led me into the woods. We walked around a bit and found a quiet little area. The moon was big and bright, making the lake water look clear and sparkly. His blue eyes were twinkling under the moonlight. I was in awe at how handsome he was.
He cupped my cheeks and looked into my eyes.
"You are so pretty," he said.
"You are such a liar," I said, but I was blushing profusely.
"I am not. I've had a crush on you since you moved into this town and I've always wanted to do this," he said and pressed his lips on mine.
My first kiss, I thought. It was finally happening.
His kiss felt warm and gentle at first, but it started to feel rough. I started to gasp for breath. He shoved me on the ground and pressed against my body.
"Ouch..what are you doing?" I said and tried to get up, but he pushed me back down. I started to panic.
"I've always wanted to do a fat chick," he said and smirked. I was suddenly scared. His handsome, friendly face suddenly looked cruel.
Getting raped wasn't part of my plan today. I needed to think quickly. I looked around frantically in hopes of finding something that'll help me, anything. I saw something glint in his pocket. A knife? Perfect.
"What, no protesting? No screaming for help? I guess you want this huh," he grinned. "Don't worry baby, I'll make it so good you'll be screaming for more," he said.
Too bad it'll be you that's going to be screaming, I thought as I slowly removed the knife from his pocket. The stupid bastard didn't even notice. I smiled at him as he unzipped his pants. Perfect.
"I've always wanted this," I cooed.
"I know you did, you slut!" Marcus said and leaned forward. But before he could do anything else, I jammed the knife in his groin and twisted it. Then I cut off his dick with a clean slice. Wow, I love this knife, so sharp!
"Ugh...fuck...what the fuck..." he stammered and fell backward. He grabbed his groin with his hand in an attempt to stop the blood from pouring out and started to scream and cry. Pfft...what a pansy-ass bitch.
"Um...Marcus, are you okay?" I got up and called out to him.
"You bitch! What did you do to me?" he croaked. His voice was high-pitched and laced with pain.
"Just performed a small surgery. Your dick needed a little readjustment," I said cruelly.
He tried to get up and walked toward me but his face planted on the ground. Pathetic loser.
I grabbed both of his feet and started to drag him to the lake.
"Wha...what are you doing?" he asked. "You need to call the hospital. I am bleeding to death, dammit!"
"Are you asking me to take you to the hospital? You are a dumbass," I said and dragged him all the way to the edge of the lake and started to roll him into the water.
"No...please stop," he pleaded and fell unconscious.
"Shh....it'll all be over soon," I said and pushed him into the lake entirely and watched him sink.
"Goodbye, Marcus," I said to myself. "I will miss your pretty eyes and that boyish smile. You'll forever be my first kiss."
Now, what do I do with those other little monkeys...
MARINAI ducked as my mother threw her plastic bowl at me. It missed my head by a few inches. Milk and cheerios splattered all over the wall and the floor.Great…I was already running behind and now, I’ll definitely be late for my first day.I share a dingy little house with my mother Leslie, in this small town in Massachusetts. I’ve always dreamed of moving out and finding my own place, but I didn’t have the heart to leave my mother behind. At least, not yet.She was sick and I was to take care of her.No matter how she treated me and how cruel she was to me, I couldn’t abandon her because she was my mother, and I was all she had left.“I said I wanted frosted flakes, you useless cunt! And you got me this garbage?” she sneered at me.“The doctor said you ought to eat healthier,” I said meekly, knowing it’d anger her even more.“Screw what the d
MARINA The club was crowded with people my age and the music was loud. Eddie took my hand and pulled me inside. "Want something to drink?" he shouted through the music so I could hear him talk. "I can't! I'm not twenty-one yet," I said. God, I sound so lame. I wish I was twenty-one already. Eddie grinned, then leaned down. "Neither am I, but I've got a fake ID," he whispered in my ears so only I could hear him. I was surprised. Eddie didn't seem like the type, but I guess I was wrong. "They won't know if I go get you one. Are you sure you don't want any?" Eddie smirked. Maybe I shouldn't keep saying no, I thought. I didn't want to seem like a total loser. "Okay, maybe just one," I said. Eddie smiled. "I know just what to get you." He walked away, leaving me alone with the crowd. I stood there awkwardly as he disappeared. I looked around and observed the strange faces in the crowd
MARINAThree days passed by, but Eddie never showed up to class. I heard from a few of the other students that he hadn’t been attending his other classes either, which was strange, to say the least.“Have you heard?” one of my classmates, Annie, sat down next to me and asked. Her eyes were sparkling with excitement as if she was about to tell me a secret.“Heard what?” I asked.“Eddie Wilson went missing!” Annie declared.Missing? How would that happen? I wondered. I just saw him at the club three days ago.“That…that’s weird,” I managed to say.“I know, right? His parents filed a missing person report and the police had been going around asking people questions. Do you think he has been murdered?” Annie looked at me expectantly as if I would know the answer.“I don’t know anything about that,” I said.&ldquo
LOGANShoot…I didn’t mean for her to see me like this. I thought I could duck before she saw me pointing the camera at her, but she saw me before I could put it away. I was caught red-handed.Last night, I came home from college and tried to go to sleep but couldn’t. And then I saw movements in her bedroom, so I got curious.I’ve always been curious about Marina. We grew up together, but I always felt like I didn’t know her. Like, really know her. She had an aura of mystery as if she was always trying to hide something or herself. And it didn’t hurt that she was hauntingly beautiful.We were best friends growing up and did everything together. We played together but it was mostly at my house because her mother was always passed out in her room and didn’t like us to make too much noise. We had to tip-toe around her mom because she was always angry and abusive toward her.We stopped hanging
MARINAThe police were here and asking everyone questions again. I saw Det. Baker was looking at me and it made me nervous. But I shouldn’t feel nervous because I haven’t done anything wrong, right?But why were the police back here?“What happened? Did they find Eddie?” I asked one of the guys in my class. His name was Mike.“They found Eddie Wilson’s body at an abandoned shed in the woods,” Mike said.I gasped. Eddie is dead!“Are you serious? But how did you know that? Did the police make an announcement? I didn’t see anything on the news,” I said. Not that I watched the news regularly, but I felt like I still would’ve heard something if it was on TV.“Someone took a picture of his dead body and spread it all over social media. It was as if he was proudly showing off his handiwork to the world or something,” Mike said distractedly.
M.D. I stood by silently and watched the faces in the crowd. Look at them, pretending to be disturbed, pretending that they care about Eddie. Bunch of fakes and assholes. No one cared about Eddie. Not like I did anyway. Gosh, he was such a joke. He thought he could get handsy with a girl and get away with it. Dumbass. He wasn't so cocky when I took him to the little shed and pulled out the knife. I always carry the knife with me when I go out at night. Because you never know when you might need it. The world is a dangerous place! It wasn't easy for me to get him to the woods. I had to wait patiently until he was ready to leave the club. But before that, I managed to slip something in his drink while he was too busy gawking at some slut. He came out of the club all drunk and disoriented. I didn't waste any time and quickly met him at the parking lot before he left. He was surprised to see me at first, shocked ev
MARINAI knew it was Logan who told the police about my fight with Eddie. It had to be him because he was the only one who saw us. So I needed to confront him. What was he doing snitching on me? It was none of his business. Although I wasn't too surprised since I caught him spying on me and taking a picture of me when I wasn't looking.Luckily, I found him walking around taking pictures of random students on campus. Is that all he does with his time? I knew photography was his passion, but he didn't have to always walk around with that camera attached to his hips. He would get in trouble for that one day."Logan! Over here!" I called him over before he was out of my sight again.He smiled when he saw me. Although I had to admit, even though he was kind of a creep, he wasn't so rough on the eyes. When he smiled, dimples appeared on both his cheeks. His hair looked soft and tousled, but his best feature was his eyes. He was attractive, that's for sure.
MARINAI did something terrible. I put some sleeping pills in my mom's soup and fed it to her so she would fall asleep. Then I would be able to sneak out and go to the party. I only wanted her to sleep and not realize I was gone for the whole night.She kept her prescription pills next to her nightstand, but I managed to take one or two out each day and hide them in my room just in case I ever needed them. I've been doing that for months now, so I have at least twenty of those pills in my possession. I put them inside a Ziploc bag and hid them under my mattress.I crushed them up and mixed them into the soup. I put a lot of seasonings in her food so she would never taste the bitterness of the pills. She drank it all without missing a beat. She complained about me being useless all day long, but she always ate everything I cooked for her.It was going to be chilly outside, so I put on a leather jacket over a red tank top. One of my old friends from high sc
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
