Silent-Crimes

Ace 

I looked at Finn, how does he know so much about my brain? "How do you know that much about me?" I asked him, "I have deeply studied that disorder for one of my friends." He said, understandable, "Do you-" He cut off Felix in between and nodded. "Now it's reasonable." Felix added. "What are you even talking about?" "Nothing." Finn said. 

"When should we go to the class?" I asked, "Early morning." Finn said, Felix nodded. 

Well enough wasting my time, I have to go meet Amy. We are going to the freshmen party as well as the welcome-back party for seniors. Perfect time to meet other suspects. I fixed my black blazer, As I walked out. I was wearing a black suit.

I saw Amy standing right over there, She was wearing a Black Frock, which goes down to her knees, with a cute-messy bun. I walked to her, "Let's go."

We reached the party, Felix was already there getting along with seniors and classmates. That's why I need him, after all he is so good at this. Does it sound selfish? But, I do just need him for that, for he gets along. Him and Amy.

My eyes were wandering around, that's when I saw that old-cold gaze. I have seen those before, Man, What caught my eyes was he was Student Council Head's Assistant. Suddenly I felt someone covering my eyes, I knew it was Felix, "What-?" I asked, "The way you were looking you will get into the suspect list instead." He said he was right. I should be more careful. Well the party seems to be too long. Everyone is on my suspect list, I feel like each eye is hiding some truth, something that they saw but they just won't tell. 

While I was sitting waiting for this party to end, someone sat beside me, "Are you okay?" This voice I have heard before, I looked at the owner of this voice, "Have we met before?" I asked him, "Do you not remember? We met in the cafe? I gave you your change?" He gave me change..? Well, I don't remember, not- not again, "I am sorry-" "It's okay, it was like weeks ago. I just thought you were curious about the surroundings," "Ahh, it's my first time around so-" "I am Zander Williams, people here call me Zane. And you little boy looks like a threat to me. So My eyes will be on you." 

"I am Ace and you are free to think all you want. I am just here to study," My brother's death. 

I believe people are made this way aren't they? They like it to see someone caring about their emotions but they don't like seeing no one else wanting the same. I lay down on my bed, Felix and Finn were still not back. Might be having drinks out there for real. Wait, Drinks? Felix is a light drinker will he be alright?

I was asleep when my alarm rang, it was 3:00 in the morning, we had to check Leo's class. I sat up on my bed and saw only Finn was on his bed. Felix wasn't here? I tried to wake Finn up. 

He sat up straight, "What's up, Ace?" He asked me, "Finn, Felix?" "Him, I saw him going with Phi Asher." "P'Asher? Who is he?" "He is Student Council President." "Oh, Is he still with him?" "Yeah? Probably." "Finn, will you come with me?" "Too where?" "Leo's class." "Right, Let's go." He said.

I was about to walk out of the dorm, "Put this on," Finn said, handing his jacket out for me, "But, you?" "I'll be fine, come on." I was wearing his jacket, he grabbed my hand, "Have a hard time catching breath?" He asked me, I shook. "Let's run." 

We literally ran towards the school building, "Why did we run here?" "To avoid getting caught." Finn said as he looked around cautiously. "There would be one camera in the class, but let's be a little hideous. I'll delete the footage once we reach back to the dorm." He said, I nodded.

We slowly stepped in, it was quite cold. "Ace checked the lockers quickly," He said, I quickly started to check each locker, it was the second last locker and when I opened it I smiled. But suddenly we heard footsteps, Finn grabbed my arm and pulled me down, "Shh, Stay quiet." He whispered.

It was the guard whose footsteps suddenly disappeared. "How did his-" "Forget Ace, check the last two lockers." I opened it and I saw some clothes of Leo and his diary, but there was not a single page in it, just a cover. "Did you find something?" He asked, "Just this," "Okay better than nothing let's go." He said and we ran back. 

Finn sat on his bed and opened his laptop, he started to proceed to delete the recent footage. Once he was done, he looked at me, "Ace you can sleep in peace. Don't worry." He said, so he did know I was worried.

"There are still two hours before we have to wake up. So, it's okay." He said as I nodded and smiled. I went to bed and he also went off to bed. It was morning already, I opened my eyes and saw Finn was sitting on his study table with his head in his hand, "What's up, Dude?" I asked, "Headache." He said in a whiny tone. I chuckled, "Here, this will help you." I gave him a pack of painkillers. 

I changed into the school outfit after taking the bath, "Are you done, Finn?" I asked as I looked out for him, "Yeah." He said, "Let's grab breakfast together?" "Sure, Ace." 

Me and Finn made our way to the canteen. Finn was telling about all the things they did last night, and I actually took interest in that. While we were talking, I saw Felix, "Oh Felix!" His eyes wandered on me and he quickly made his way to us, "So, Where were you all night?" 

"Where was I…?" Felix repeated my words…
