III: School of suspects

They arrived at the school at around 1am looking around, Kat spotted and entrance, but it was locked. "Ezra this was a bad idea let's just go back to my house." she shuddered "Nah it's fine-" click! The door was opened by him "you can pick locks?!?"

Soon they were inside and saw the crime tape all around. Kat pulled some silicon gloves on and cleaned the door handle. After that she handed Ezra a pair of gloves and they looked around for the girls bathroom. Suddenly something caught Kat's eye. "Wait isn't that a-" "HEY WHAT ARE YOU PUNKS DOING IN HERE!?!?" a loud angry voice said "Fuck, We should probably run." Ezra said

They raced back the way they came until Kat got lost. "Ezra?!?" she shouted "Hello where are you?". She never took this way home even if it was faster because it was through a dark, misty, twisted Forest.

.

Pain shot through Kat's leg from her injury and she started tearing up. "Ezra!?!? EZRA!?!" she screamed when suddenly a tall, dark figure hugged her from behind, wrapping strong arms around her waist. " Hey there Princess." he said smiling at her

She tried walking further, but her legs hurt too much, and she tripped again, just making things worse but, sensing her pain Ezra picked her up and walked back to her house with her in his arms. Gently laying her down in her bed as she came inside.He than was about to leave but was so tired that he ended up staying the night, wrapping his arms around her as he slowly fell asleep.

Kat woke up and was surprised to see Ezra next to her "How did we end up like this!?!?" she said to herself. Ezra grumbled and slowly woke up as well "what? " He murmured "Oh you and I were both tired when we got back, and I didn't have the energy to go home." Ping! A notification popped up on Kat's phone...an incoming call from Nia."SHIT!! Pretend you're not here!! "

Kat: hey Nia, did you find anything?

Nia: no not really but there were no fingerprints on the knife, and it was clean it's so confusing.

Kat: well confusing or not this is my life and reputation on the line.

Nia: yea anyway so how's it going with the guy you were staring at?

Kat: what guy?

Nia: you know, the cute new guy who's like Australian or something, you were talking to him.

Kat blushed as she made eye contact with Ezra

Kat: well we're just friends.

Nia: you don't stare at me that way.

Kat: umm I have to go bye

Nia: you definitely like him-

Kat: (hangs up)

Ezra stared at her in disbelief. "KAT WHAT WAS THAT?!? " "well you know umm she's just shipping us, but it's not like that I swear." Kat protested "sure whatever you say princess...let's just make a list of suspects"

"WAIT I JUST REMEMBERED SOMETHING!!!WE NEED TO INTERVIEW THE PERSON WITH LOCKER NUMBER 143." ok got that noted down.

"why is it so important tho? " Ezra asked "welll it's because-" suddenly Kat's phone began to ring...and the police were on the other end of the line.
