The new kid next door
Hey billy, what are you doing after school today?
Well I have a lot to do like I have to go home and do my homework, I have to do my chores around the house, I have to walk the dogs and don't forget I have basketball practice after dinner. Why do you ask John?
I was going to see if you wanted to come with me and Sam to go watch Mr.Bailey speak about violence around the town.
Oh your really going to watch that, haha hope you have fun with Sam. Also what is Lucy doing tomorrow after school?
Awwwwwwww does billy have a crush on Lucy!
Nooooo I… I just wanted to see if you knew maybe but, yes I do.
Ha I knew it, why don't you just go ask her, well I got to go now so talk to you later.
Ok bye, wait I forgot to tell you that this new kid moved in next door to me and he wanted to me our group of friends so maybe tomorrow we could do that.
Yeah that's fine, it will also get you a chance to see your lover girl haha.
Your just going to tease me with that now but bye.
Bye.
Hey Sam how do you think this speech will go.
I think he will talk about how to make the town more safe for us after that horrible thing that happened to Billy's old next door neighbors.
Yeah he probably will let's listen.
Last month as everyone knows a terrible incident happened in the town in one of the homes down the street. After the case has been submitted to court the young boy has been charged with first degree murder and will spend the rest of his life in prison like facilities. The family of the kid feel so bad for not keeping their child on track and focused on life. As you can tell I am sending a message that we keep a closer look on our kids so something like that doesn't happen again. Not saying that it will but anything is possible. I thank you for coming out to here my speech and have a great rest of your night.
Well I have to go home with my mom so see you later Sam.
Ok well I'm going over to Jimmy’s house to eat dinner with his parents to meet them. So I will see you tomorrow.
Hey Lucy how was your day yesterday after school.
It was ok how was yours
Same, there is this new kid would it be alright if he would hang out with our friends?
Yeah I have no problem what's his name?
His name is Jimmy and he moved into the house next to me.
After what happened that's crazy.
I know, well I'll see you in math later so bye.
Bye.
Hey guys this is Jimmy the new kid next door.
Do you know what happened there Jimmy?
You don't need to talk about that Sam.
It's ok billy it's ok. Yes I do know what happened.
What do yo like to do for fun?
Well John I didn't have many friends at my old school so I usually just stay inside and play games or make art.
Could we see your art work I really like art.
No sorry Lucy I don't like to show it.
Look Billy you can go to the art show haha!
Shut up John it's not funny!
What are you two talking about?
NOTHING!!!!!!!!
Well you didn't have to yell.
Sorry Lucy we didn't mean to.
It's ok billy.
Would you like to go to the movies with us Jimmy?
No I'm good. I think I am going to go play my games.
Ok have fun at home then. See you around then.
Only if you can.
That kid is a little weird Jimmy, don't you think he is.
Guys he just moved in and is probably shy.
He isn't like other kids like who doesn't go to the movies and likes to stay home.
Yeah I don't like him he is a little creepy.
Don't worry Lucy, Jimmy will keep you safe.
You will Jimmy won't you?
If you want me to. I mean yeah I will.
Ok let's go watch the movie now.
Wow that was a great movie guys what do you think.
Well Sam, I don't think Billy and Lucy saw any of it haha!
I didn't know that they liked each other.
I didn't know that Lucy actually liked him back.
Yeah but do you hear that John?
Hear what?
That scream coming from the park.
Go get the love birds so we can go see what it is. Someone could need our help.
I can't find anything but I heard it come from here.
Guess you were hearing stuff Sam.
No I wasn’t Billy look at your foot.
What?
The trail of blood!!!
Run to the police station John!
Ok I will be right back.
Here is where we found the blood we just didn't want to follow the trail of it.
Ok well I'm going to have you and your friends go back to the police station to help us out any more you can and so we can have your parents pick you up.
Ok thanks Mr. Officer.
No problem just doing my job.
What could be going on John.
I don't know Sam I just hope it is all a joke.
Well my parents are here and they are giving Lucy a ride home to so see you tomorrow.
Ok bye Billy, bye Lucy.
Ok Sam my mom is her so see you tomorrow.
Right back at you.
Hey Lucy where is Billy?
He didn't tell you what happened when he got home?
No what happened?
Well when he went to his room his hamster Mr.bubbles was sliced open and a message was made out of his blood that said “ you better watch your back “. Isn't that just crazy
Yeah when you see him later tell him that I'm sorry.
Sure thing John, and by the way how long has Billy liked me?
He has had a crush on you since you walked through the doors in kindergarten.
And he has waited until 10th grade?
Well I think he didn't know if you liked him or not.
Well I do and I have so I guess we are a thing now.
The cutest thing of 2008 haha!
You have jokes John, you have jokes.
Ok well me and Sam are going to go try to hang out with this Jimmy so bye.
Bye John.
So this kid lives right next to Billy?
Yes.
And he live in that house with the really bad murders?
Yes.
And this kids name is jimmy?
Yes.
Where is billy?
Long story but are you done asking questions sam?
Yeah sorry. I just want to be sure of things.
Why is jimmy’s front door just open?
Well let's go inside.
Ok John.
It looks like no one is home. Let's go upstairs and check out his room.
Yeah let's do that. Maybe we can see his art work and the type of things he is into.
Well his art is different. It's made out of blood.
Look under his bed John. He has jars of blood. Where could he get this from.
Well from the people that have been gone missing. He could have took the blood from them and used it for his so called art.
You really don't think it's him do you. Wow are you serious.
Yes I am Sam because we all thought he was weird and creepy so how could it not be him.
Well I think your right because he is behind you.
What?
Well well well what do we have here Sam and John. I told you not to look at my art because of this.
What is this and why do you have a knife?
Well I was walking the dog and I saw you through the window and I saw you two in my room.
But why the knife?
Oh John so brave with your questions. It's the knife to kill you two.
What why.
Shut up Sam this didn't need to happen. If you guys would just leave me alone none of this would have happened.
Well Billy and Lucy are coming over so they will see this too.
Well I guess they will have to die too.
Hey Sam text….
What are you telling him
Jimmy… Cops… Blood… Now.
What are you doing stop before I have to kill you now.
I believe you don't have to do anything. Put your hands behind your back your under arrest for the murder and attempt of murder.
You don't have a warrant for my arrest.
Yes we do we found some of your blood at the crime scene. Take him away boys. Are you two boys ok.
Yeah how did you get here so fast we just sent in the call.
I got the call as soon as I got here. We just found out that the new killer was Jimmy. He won't be hurting anymore.
Good, where is Billy and Lucy?
Last I heard they were in the hospital because Lucy found her dad stabbed on the couch when she got home.
Is he going to be ok?
Yeah he will be fine. How about I give you boys a ride home?
That would be great Mr.officer.
Ok, this is all over know so our town has nothing to worry about.
Yeah. Well thanks for the ride see you around.
Yes and stay out of trouble you two.
