Chapter 4
A few hours later, I was still a little shaken up by the knife. I had called my best friend JJ to come over, and along with her she brought the rest of BSB. I had told them what had happened. "Oh my! That's awful! How could anyone be so sick!?" JJ asked.

"I'm not sure JJ. I’m just not sure. I never really knew him, I never saw him outside of daddy's office. And when we decided to move, he asked me to marry him. That's when dad called the police and had him arrested. And I haven’t seen him again until last night."

"Well, I for one won’t let anyone hurt you or Nick." JJ said.

"Yeah, me neither," Brian said.

"Thanks guys. I’m still confused on why he sent me a bloody knife. Usually that means someone was killed with it, right?" I asking, hoping I was right.

"Yeah, that's what I’ve heard. And from all the mystery movies I’ve seen, I’m pretty much an expert," Howie said. We all laughed. It felt really good to laugh, seeing as we had been so scared and worried for the past few days.

"So, why do you think he still has to have you Beth? I mean he did try to kill you!" JJ said.

"Yeah, I know. I was thinking the same thing. I mean he was so in love with me that he sent me flowers every other day, gave my dad huge promotions, gave me tickets to half of the concerts of y’all’s I went to, money for merchandise, and random money whenever he felt like it."

"Wow, that's even worse than Nicky," Brian said. Nick looked hurt. "I was kidding," Bri said, hoping to make Nick feel better. Then, Nick got up and left the room. I got up and followed him.

"Hey Nicky, what's wrong?" I said putting my arms around him.

"It's just that, he seems so determined to have you that he'll do anything, even try to make sure I can’t either. And that comment that Bri said made me think that he wants you even more than I do, and that’s pretty hard."

"Oh Nicky, that's not true. He only wanted me for my looks, he never got to know me the way you have; plus I love YOU not him. He knows I don’t like him, but he thinks that if he scares me enough, I’ll give in. But I'm never going to give in and leave you."

"Thanks Bethy, he's just going to have to realize that we're in love and nothing can change that!" After that, I just had to kiss him, so I did. We were standing in the hall when I heard a scream that I'll remember for the rest of my life. . .
