Notes: Sorry for the delay! I kept forgetting to post it here, haha. Thank you to the wonderfulfantulousamazing Sandra for beta-ing and dealing with my crappy first drafts, hee. ♥ This chapter is focused on Rita. (I lied about Riley. Oops. He's next chapter, I promise.)
Previous Chapter: Chapter Four.
Summary: In his life, Michael Mackin never made much of an impact. With his death, he changes everything. After his murder, a group of five friends are left - Asher, Miranda, Rita, Aaron, and Riley. The five try to cope with the events that brought them all to that night as they grow paranoid that someone in their group might have killed Michael.
Chapter Summary: A shadow passes over the window and Rita stiffens. Immediately, all kinds of CSI: Richardson images are flitting through her mind: Guy with a knife, guy with a gun, guy with a big fork and a salt shaker… She tries to make her movements casual as she sets her photo book on the table and reaches down under the couch. Her hand curls around the smooth, round grip of a metal baseball bat.
( Can we talk, or are you going to try to bludgeon me again? )
A/N: Drop a comment if you liked, or didn't. =) Next chapter is the actual Riley chapter.
