My Bloody Valentine

He dropped you off, I followed him home.
Then I, stood outside his bedroom window.
Standing over him, he begged me not to do,
What I know I had to do,
Because I'm so In Love With You!

Oh my love please don't cry,
I'll wash my bloody hands and we'll start a new life.

March 20th- 11:34 PM
"Veronica, I love you. I always have. He wasn't worth your time, he wasn't worth you." I spoke such confidence, how could she not love me? "He was going to take you away, away from me. I wasn't going to let him. You and me, that is all I care about. We can run, we can start a new life. We can do it. We can live! Together!"

Only a few hours earlier, Joel had found Veronica with Mike. He was devastated.

March 20th- 9:23 PM
What was she doing with him? I love you Veronica! Why are you with him? These thoughts constantly plagued me as I watched them from my car. They were walking down the beach.

March5- 8:30 AM
Only a few weeks before that Veronica had taken out a restraining order on Joel. He had followed her for weeks, and the final straw was when he was caught sneaking into her room late at night. When the police where called he was found with several of her possessions in his pockets. Including an old diary, a lock of her hair, and some articles of her clothing.

March 20th - 9:40 PM
Where were they going? I need to do something. I love her. She loves me. Joel reached into his pocket and grabbed a picture he had taken of Veronica. He looked at it as a dog looks towards his loving master. I'm going to do something. Just as he finished putting his picture back in his pocket he looked up to see Mike kiss Veronica. This filled him with rage. At that moment he stepped out of the door and slammed it behind him. He began running towards the two. "Veronica! Don't let him do that! He is only trying to use you!" Then turning his attention towards Mike, "Get your freaking hands off of her!" Joel came in swinging. He took the first shot while still running. He aimed just above Mike's jawbone. Mike easily ducked out of the way and planted a very strong blow to Joel's cheek bone. Veronica heard a crunch and Mike's fist landed. Joel had fallen to the ground. Easily defeated. "Mike lets get out of here. Take me home, I can't stand this."

March 20th- 10:13 PM
After a long car ride Mike pulled his car into Veronica's driveway. Along the way she had told Mike about everything, the restraining order, everything. He was worried for his girlfriend. "If anything happens or you see anything, or are just scared, call me. Anytime. Anywhere. I'll find you." "G'night Mike" Veronica smiled. Somewhat still distracted by tonight's events she walked into her house.

March 20th 10:24 PM
Veronica turned on the T.V. to distract her. She walked into the kitchen and began to make a sandwich. Should I call the police about tonight? After all Joel did break the restraining order. Maybe I should. As she sat and pondered this Mike was driving home.

March 20th 10:24 PM
Mike backed out of the drive way and was driving down the street. His house was only a block or two away. Only a few minutes. He was a bit shaken from tonight's events. His adrenaline was still pumping. I'm going to kill that creep. If he so much as lays a hand on Veronica, he'll be dead.

March 20th 10:40 PM
Mike had made it all the way home and now was enjoying some chips before going to bed. There was quite a storm blowing in. The wind was picking up and it started to heavily rain. Once his snack was done he headed for bed. As he layed down he heard something out the window. It is just the storm he said.

March 20th 10:40 PM
Veronica decided she was going to call the police in the morning. There wasn't much they could do at this late hour. So she headed for bed.

March 20th 11:02 PM
Joel found the bedroom window unlocked. He very stealthily opened it without a sound and entered the room. He very quietly closed the window behind him. He stood over a bed with a hunting knife in his hand. He started to cough and tried to stop himself but it was too late, he had been heard. Mike opened his eyes wide. Then in that moment a million feelings were expressed through them. With one feeling reigning supreme over the others. Fear. As Mike tried to jump up, Joel slammed the knife hard, as hard as he could, down into Mike's neck. A little cry escaped from Mike's mouth before falling back down onto his bed. This wasn't enough for Joel. He then pulled the knife back out of the neck and continued to stab it into Mike and twisting and ripping. He didn't just kill Mike. He maimed him. Joel saw a light go on in the hallway. He quickly escaped through the window he had come through. As he was running from the property he heard a scream of a mother, and the weeping of a father.

March 20th 11:15
The police quickly arrived at the murder scene. They began to question the parents. "He was with Veronica, his girlfriend, all night." They quickly called her.
"Hello, Veronica?"
"Yes, who is this?" her voice was tired and it sounded as if she had just woken up.
"I'm afraid I have terrible news. Mike has been murdered. Is there anyone you know who would've done this?"
The officer didn't receive a response. All he heard was a desperate crying. This was all he was going to hear.

March 20th 11:17
"Veronica?" This time the voice did not come from the phone. She was scared stiff. She dropped the phone and turned to see Joel. His shirt was bloody, he was still clenching a knife. She began to scream. Joel quickly covered her mouth. "I love you..." She bit into his hand. In sudden terror Joel drew back. Veronica took this chance and bolted for the door. She made it out and was worried about her family. She turned around and saw Joel chasing her. She turned and ran. She had made it three blocks before slowing down. Then she dared to look. No one was there.

March 20th- 11:34 PM
Her cell phone rang. It was her home phone number.
"Mom?" her voice was quivering
"Veronica, I love you. I always have. He wasn't worth your time, he wasn't worth you." I spoke such confidence, how could she not love me? "He was going to take you away, away from me. I wasn't going to let him. You and me, that is all I care about. We can run, we can start a new life. We can do it. We can live! Together!"
She dropped the phone. It fell into a puddle formed by the rain. She was alone. In the dark. He family, dead, her boyfriend, dead. She broke down into tears and fell to the ground. She couldn't muster any strength to move, or even scream.

March 20th 11:41 AM
"Veronica, I love you." Veronica turned over and saw Joel standing over her. She wasn't able to move or think.
"Oh my love please don't cry, I'll wash my bloody hands and we'll start a new life."
