A Story of a Killer - Chapter 8: Chapter 8

"PLEASE! NO! IM BEGGING YOU!" The woman screamed as she tried her best to run away from me. She was limping very badly due to the long gash wound in her upper thigh.
You see after everyone went to bed I decided to take a walk through the woods, the same woods me and Jacob went to, to clear my head and by clear my head I mean find some corrupted soul to prey on. Just my luck I see this couple lying down on a blanket laughing and stargazing. As I got closer I pull out my black hunting knife and hid behind a tree.
"Isn't this nice babe? Just you, me and the stars." The girl said while sighing happily.
"Yeah it's nice but don't you think its a bit creepy? I mean it feels like someone is watching us." The male said while shuddering and looking around.
Little do you know
This would, in fact, be a challenge since there are two of them instead of my usual one but hey, I'm always up for a challenge.
"It's fine. We're fine. Don't be a stick in the mud." She taunted while playfully nudging his side. The boy just sighed and continued staring at the sky. They were laughing and joking with one another, then I finally made my move from behind the trees. I made sure mg steps were slow and calculated so they wouldn't hear me coming.
Left.......Right.......Left.......Right.......Left
"Sofie." The boy whispered. She turned and looked at him while smiling.
"Yeah, Chase?"
"I love yo-"
Right
The entire blade of my knife made its way through the boy's skull in a split second.
The girl started to scream.
The boy's eye started to squirt blood around the knife flowing it started to flow down the side of his face. He tried to see, tried to reach up and grab my arms but I twisted the knife around in his eye and and pressed as hard as I could until a loud crunch and squelch filled the air.
His skull collapsed. He was dead. Which meant one down and one more to go.
The girl tried to get up and run but I pulled the knife swiftly out the dead boy's head and stabbed her in the leg. I dragged my blade down, and her screams intensified. I was so busy worrying about the knife in her leg, that still had her boyfriend's eye attached to it, I didn't see her other leg rising and that mistake earned me a kick in the nose.
As I fell backward that caused my knife to dislodge itself from her and gave her enough time to get away as I catered to my nose. The girl, who's name was Sofie, limped away fast enough to make it into the dense trees.
Shit
Getting up and wiping the blood off my nose and running after her. At first, I didn't know where she went until I heard her screams.
"HELP! SOMEBODY! PLEASE HELP ME!"
She was a bit far ahead which surprised me a bit since she was in fact injured. I ran to catch up to her but instead of killing her when I got close I decided to play with her a bit.
"Come back! There's no need to run. I won't hurt you." I said to the girl when I got close to her. She stopped a good distance away from me, turned around and clutched her bleeding leg.
"Please. Just let me go. I-I won't tell anyone what happened j-just let me go. I just came to see my family." Her little speech was broken and hard to understand due to her excessive crying and hiccuping.
"Oh, no-no-no honey. I can't let you go. You see if I do that I won't get to have any fun now would I?" I asked while waving the knife around in the air, which still had her boyfriend's eye attached. Pulling the knife up to my lips I open my mouth place my teeth of the eyeball and dragged it off. While looking at her dead in the eyes I start to chew.
Crunch.....Crunch.....Crunch
The girl watched me with pure disgust in her eyes and continued to cry. Swallowing the eye I smile at her and felt the blood from my nose and mouth dripping down my face.
The girl seemed to have enough and turned around and tried to get away once more. She was closer to the road this time which meant all my little games are over now.
"Please! Someone! Anyone!" The girl yelled out into the empty forest. Looking to my right I could see headlights from a car driving on the same road she was trying to get to. I guess she saw it too because now she was a hit more determined. Just before to got to the edge of the forest, just before she was able to scream for help as the car was passing I placed my hand over her mouth with the knife at her throat.
"I caught you," I whispered into her ear, with a sinister smile on my face. Just as the car passed her shoulders started to shake and she screamed into my hands and I silenced it all as I slit her throat in one swift motion. Her body went limp as blood shot from the wound in her neck and onto her clothes. As I drop her body on the ground and watch as she does out.
Looking down I noticed a necklace around her neck and decided to examine it. Turning it around I notice the words on the back of the heart that read.
'Til death do us part'
"I guess neither of you were expecting death so early huh?" Laughing I unhooked the necklace off her cold lifeless body and places it into my pocket. With once last look and one last smile, I walked to my car bloody and partly broken and drove away from the scene.

Driving down the quiet street, I make my way to my destination. When the house was in view I noticed the absence of the old pick up truck in the driveway. Parking along the curve I get out the car and made my way up those old stairs and to the front door. Once I get there I knock on the door three times. For a second no one said anything so I knocked again three more times until a muffled voice came from the other side.
"Who is it?" The voice was barely above a whisper.
"It's me, Jacob. Titus." There was a slight pause and for a second I thought he walked away from the door but I heard the sound of the door opening. Jacob peeked outside the door and when he's sleepy eyes landed on me.
"Titus! What are you doing here?!" He asks.
"I didn't feel like going home. So can I crash here for the night?" I said as I shrugged. He just stared at me with wide eyes and after another short pause, he nods his head.
"Oh. Um yeah." He moves away from the door and stepped aside as I walked into the house. Now the inside of the house looked completely different from the outside. It looked neat and organized but there were a few beer bottles lying on and around the living room table. "My room is this way."
The hallway leading to his room was dimly lit from the moonlight and I could see faint outlines of picture frames on the wall. We came to a room with the door wide open and a lamp light on. After we fully made it into his room he turns around to face and gasps.
"Oh my God! Titus what the hell happened to you?! Why are you covered in blood and shit your nose!" He yells at me while slowly backing away.
"Jacob. Calm down okay. It's not a big deal, it's just a little blood, it won't kill anybody." I said while slowly walking towards him.
"It is a big deal, Titus. Who's blood is that?" He asks while looking at me with fear in his eyes.
"I'll tell you as soon as I take a shower." I was lying of course but he didn't have to know that. He nodes his head and pointed towards a door I assume was the bathroom.
"I'll bring you something to wear. There are extra rags and towels under the sink. When you're done there's a washer machine behind those sliding doors in the closet that you can use to wash your clothes." While talking he was also moving across the room to look for clothes and clean it up a bit. It wasn't messy though so he was probably doing that to distract himself. Walking into the bathroom I took a nice, long and hot shower to rid my body and mind of the impurities of this world.
Once I finished, there were clothes placed on the toilet stool so I put them on. The pants were a bit short and tight since Jacob was smaller than me. The shirt was too small so I didn't even bother with it so I just walked out the bathroom shirtless. When I walked out Jacob was sitting with a book in his hands and looked up when I came out. When his eyes landed on my shirtless body he started to open and close his mouth like a fish out of water. It was pretty amusing to watch since a faint blush crossed his cheeks.
"Like what you see?" I asked while smirking. His blush only intensified as he continues to stare. Wanted to mess with his some more I flexed a bit, moving my pectorals and I could've sworn I seen drool come out his mouth. That caused a hearty laugh to leave my lips and he threw a book in my direction, which I easily caught.
"So are you going to tell me what happened?" He was leaning forward a bit to show his interest.
"Yeah after I put my clothes in the washer." Instead of going to the washer machine I run outside-barefoot- and threw my clothes in the plastic bag in my back seat. I made a mental note that later on, I would have to burn those same clothes which sucked cause I really liked that shirt.
Running back into the house and silently closing and locking his front door I go back into Jacobs's room.
"Now are you going to tell me? Since you know I let you in my house." His arms were crossed as he sat on the edge of his bead. Instead of answering his questions I crawl into his bed and lay down towards the wall. It was already 1 o'clock in the morning and we needed to go to school so right now I was going to sleep.
"Hey! Who said? You were going to sleep on the floor mister!" He said to me while turning around on his bed.
"Shh, Jacob I'm trying to sleep." My eyes started to flutter close but he decided to be sir talk a lot tonight.
"Excuse me?! Don't you tell me to shush when yo-"
"Jacob. Lay the hell down and take your ass to sleep." There was no playfulness in my voice. I was serious man, I wanted to sleep and he was interrupting that. Squinting his eyes he decided to lay down but kept a great distance between us. Not having any of that I put my arm around his waist and pulled his body firmly against mine. I could feel his heart rate increase as my hand slid up his chest, through his arms until my head was firmly settled on his neck.
"Just sleep," I whispered into his ear and his whole body shuddered at that. He nodded his head and slowly but surely he fell asleep in my arms.
