As I stared at the TV like a walking corpse possessed by the feeling that was taking me over I could feel my eyelids getting heavy and my brain drowning into the quiet abyss. Nicole and Jeffrey have been boyfriend and girlfriend for 3 years now. They have been living together for a year and a half now. It started off amazing but slowly with spending habits getting out of control they are now struggling to financially support themselves. They both have horrible relationships with their parents so they refuse to move back in. They are to the point of depression and Jeffery has been secretly plotting behind Nicole’s back. He wanted to find something to blackmail the landlord about. He looked around the house for anything he had not fixed yet. He could not find one single idea. That was until the lightbulb popped adobe his head. Jefferey had a safe in his closet. So he puts in his code and it’s now open he reaches for the metal stick that is the cause of corruption. He put it under his pillow so he has easy access to it. He knew the landlord was stopping by today to collect the rent and Jeffrey and Nicole did not have it. Its now about three in the afternoon and he is finally here. Jeffery opens the door with only half of his body visible as the other half was hidden behind the half open door. Just seconds later the unexpected happened. POW!! Nicole jumped and ran out of the bathroom to see the landlord laying in a red pool on their front door step. 

“Why would you kill the landlord!”

Jeffery took a deep breath “because he wont give us the extension we need for rent.”

Nicole thought how could he do something like this, am I next?

“What are we going to do now”

Jeffery breathed deeply again. “I don't know, I didn’t think that far.”
