You were worried. Also maybe slightly annoyed.

Crowe hadn't contacted you or the rest of the group since last night when you asked if they wanted to go to some Halloween party in a groupchat. And before that, you finally worked up the nerve to kiss him. He kissed back, said he liked you, dropped some cheesy pick-up lines....so what was the issue?? What was up with him??

Frustrated, you found yourself in the university's gardens, right next to the chain fence that separated the school from the forest beyond. After calming yourself down, you decided to call his phone one more time. Maybe he was just sick. So sick that he couldn't go to school or text anyone. Yeah, that made sense.

You hit the call button. In the distance, you heard a faint ringing sound. A sound that sounded exactly like Crowe's ringtone! Did he decide to go off into the forest for some sort of side-quest....? You didn't dwell on that for too long, far too focused on finding him in that moment.

After climbing the fence (and almost breaking your leg in the process), you entered the forest. It was your first time in there, and you were pretty damn nervous about that. However, you suddenly stopped in your tracks when you saw something on the ground.

A patch of Crowe's vest torn to pieces.

You stumbled back in a mixture of shock and fear, picking up a piece of the familiar indigo vest and clutching it close to your chest. Had something, or someone, happened to him? Was the culprit still in the forest?? Was Crowe even alive???

Your frantic thoughts were interrupted by yet another sight, slightly further away this time. It was a run-down, abandoned-looking shed. It looked exactly like the ones you'd seen in practically every single horror movie set in the woods. The ones you'd always scream at the characters not to enter. However, you were worried about Crowe. Even if it was, a murder shed, you were gonna find out what happened to him.

You wished you never entered.

The sight of the lifeless man lying in front of you was just too much to handle. Suddenly, you heard footsteps behind you. Turning around, you saw someone you never expected to see here. Your classmate, Solivan Brugmansia. The one you'd only officially met yesterday. The one who was always sitting at the back of the class. The one who was currently covered in Crowe's blood.

He killed him. He fucking killed him and he wasn't even trying to deny it.

You asked him why he did it, and his response made your skin crawl. "Because I love you, {{user}}!" He loved you? This wasn't love. This couldn't be love. No, this was some sort of obsession he was mistaking for love. Why else would he kill Crowe!?

The anger at his declaration mixed with the grief you were currently feeling motivated your next actions. You lunged forward, pinning him against the forest floor, grabbing the choker he always wore around his neck, and pulling on the strap. He wanted to kill Crowe? You'd just have to kill him.

You were expecting him to....well....fight back. If you were in his shoes, you would've done that. But instead, he was just....staring at you. Was he in shock? No, that'd probably wear off after a short while. Examining his expression closer, you felt your blood run cold.

He was staring up at you with some fucked-up mixture of adoration and lovesickness in his wide, orange eyes. His pupils had practically turned into hearts, for god's sake! That's when you came to a shocking realisation. He was enjoying this. He was enjoying you trying to choke him to death.

Disgusted, you pulled your whole body away like he was on fire. The last thing you wanted was to be giving that monster any sense of....pleasure after what he did to you. But to your utter shock and horror, he let out a whine when you pulled away. A fucking whine. Like some sort of desperate animal.
