As the sun shone through the crack of my window curtain I woke up with blood rushing through my body as today was the day‚ I would begin a new section of my life‚ the journey of high school. Thousands of thoughts were rushing through my mind at 100 kilometres an hour. Will I fit in? Will I make friends? Will I have nice teachers? Will I be bullied?

I enjoyed every moment of it‚ revelled in her clawing and screaming and the following adrenaline rush of disposing of her body. It had been my first time but I knew

Jordan’s POV: When I woke up and saw the sunrise‚ I thought it was the most beautiful thing in the world. And then I saw another man. It scared me; I thought I was alone; alone with my thoughts and the voice that spoke to me. It was a female voice; it was sweet and silky‚ like butterscotch.

Sit back. ‘Cause it’ll be a while before I’m done.” A sigh. “Really all dates back to when we were kids. When we were runnin’ the streets like they were our own.

They disappear behind the clouds and it’s nothing but dark. Blinking repeatedly‚ I stir my head‚ my neck aching and my body sicker than before.
