Harry picks up Jess's body from her bed, with a plain expression worn upon his face. That's when I realise, this was no accident. And how Evie, Liz and Dakota look at me, their facial expressions say they know Jess's death wasn't an accident either.

After Harry carries Jess bridal style out of the room, probably planning to dump her body in the lake outside, Evie, Liz and Dakota come up to me. Liz moves her eyes to the door, motioning for us to get out.

After we're just outside of the bedroom, Evie, Liz and Dakota start talking about different things all at the same time.

"Guys! One at a time!" I whisper-yell.

"I think we know who murdered Jess" Liz whispers, her breathing rapid.

"Juliet!" Dakota says, a little to loud. I tell her to shush.

"Why do you guys think that?" I ask the three girls.

"Jess had a little cold before she got massively sick, so it was normal for her coughing" Evie says, nodding at Liz and Dakota.

"Yeah, so when Juliet got her water and closed the door, she obviously poisoned the water" Dakota says, finishing Evie's sentence.

"What? Juliet wouldn't do that" I say, shaking my head. Juliet is the nicest person ever. Sure, she's close with Harry, but would she really go to the extreme of poisoning her friend just to please him?

"Yes! You know Juliet would do something like th-" Dakota is cut off by Anna opening the door.

"What're you guys doing?" She asks, confused.

"Nothing, just comforting Liz, she was best friends with Jess so-" Anna cuts Dakota off once again.

"We're all trying to comfort each other, don't be selfish. Just come in the room" Anna says, rolling her eyes and walking into the room. We follow her.

Everyone's sitting down on there own beds, crying softly. The sight makes Dakota, Evie and I lightly cry, but for Liz, it makes her cry hysterically. I feel so sorry for her. Liz and Jess were the best of friends.

I sit down on Anna's bed next to Lola and take in what just happened. I doubt Juliet would poison Jess, she's too nice, and Juliet and Jess were pretty close.

"Do you know how she died?" I whisper to Lola. Lola shrugs. I look at Juliet. She's bawling her eyes out. Okay, there's no way Juliet murdered Jess, she's crying like crazy! But is she crying because she's sad for Jess's death, or that she had to possibly murder her?

"Um, Holly, can I talk to you outside?" Lola unexpectedly says. Before I can answer, Lola grabs my hand gently and walks me out of the room, locking the door behind her.

"Yeah?" I ask, my eyebrow shooting up.

"You cannot tell anyone what I am about to tell you" Lola says, quietly.

"I won't tell anyone" I pinky promise with Lola.

"There's a doll helping Harry kill us all" Lola whispers.

"I know, so does Dakota, Evie and Liz" Lola looks at me confused.

"Oh..." Lola says.

"Lola, are you helping Harry?" I ask her, biting my lip.

"What? No! But I know who is" Lola says, taking a deep breath. I stand there confused.

"It's Juliet"

"Why are you so sure?" I ask, crossing my arms.

"It's obvious. And she was the one who was with Jess before she died" Lola explains, putting a hand on her hip. She has so much attitude; it's annoying.

"Whatever, don't believe me, but stay away from her" Lola says, walking back into the bedroom. Shortly after, I follow her.

I'm starting to have second thoughts about Juliet, maybe she really did murder Jess. I mean, it makes sense when you put your mind to it. Juliet was last with Jess before she passed away.

| At Dinner |

"Now, I know we're all sad for Jess, but let's just forget about it, alright?" Harry says from the end of the table. We all agree before going back to our conversations.

Again, I'm sitting next to Evie and Liz. I look over to Juliet. She's sitting next to Sarah and Anna. Well, there goes Dakota and Juliet's friendship.

"Hey, Lola knows about the helping Harry thing, too" I whisper to Evie and Liz, pointing to Lola. Lola gets the memo and waves and smiles. We chuckle.

"Okay, well that brings us a step closer to finding out who's helping Harry" Evie says, swirling her fork in a bowl of spaghetti.

"Please, we've already found out who's helping Harry" Liz says to Evie.

"Juliet" Liz says, emphasising the 'u'. Juliet turns her head to us.

"Huh?" Juliet asks, smiling.

"Nothing, haha" Liz says, her cheeks turning red. Luckily, Juliet shrugs and returns back to her meal.

"Close one" I hit Liz on the shoulder playfully.

Right now, I feel almost fully convinced Juliet is the doll helping Harry. I just don't know how someone I trusted so deeply would turn their back in everyone.

| Before Bed |

My favourite time of the day is before bed. We kinda have these schedules.

7AM - wake up, get ready.

8AM - go downstairs and start making breakfast.

9AM - eat breakfast.

9:40AM - free time.

11:30AM - clean the house.

12:30PM - start making lunch.

1:20PM - eat lunch.

2PM - free time.

5PM - start making dinner.

6:10PM - eat dinner.

7:00PM - clean.

7:40PM - free time.

10PM - get ready for bed.

10:20PM - lights out.

Before bed is when us girls get to muck around before lights out. The fun thing is we're literally always together. We all brush out teeth at the same time. Our bathroom is huge. Each girl has a sink and mirror. We all brush our hair at the same time, too. It's great, but from now on, I try and stay as far away from Juliet. You know, just in case.

We're all sitting down in our beds, talking to one another. Everyone in this room seems... Normal. Like no one is out to kill anyone. It's a very strange thought.

Harry opens the door gently.

"Lights out" Harry says, firmly.

"C'mon, five more minutes" Macy says, sounding childish.

"No" Harry rolls his eyes.

"Please, Harry, don't be grumpy!" Macy says, giggling.

"Lights out now!" Harry yells and slams the door shut. We all turn off our lamps and get to sleep. Harry seems pretty angry... I wonder why.

| In The Morning |

I wake up from my long slumber, stretching and yawning. The girls are still asleep. Weird, usually I'm the one to wake up last. I look over to the digital clock. It reads '6:59AM' the alarm will go off any second now. As it does, I put my hands to my ears. The sound it makes isn't like the soothing ringtones on iPhones, it's loud, beeping and annoying as hell.

All the girls wake up and press the button that turns off their alarms. We exchange kind 'Good mornings' before hopping out of bed and getting dressed.

We're all dressed, so we head to the bathroom to do our makeup.

Once we get back in the bedroom, we see Anna is still in her bed, her whole body under the covers, sleeping. Sarah groans and walks over there, all of us following her.

"Wake up, Anna!" Sarah says. No answer.

"Anna, get dressed!" Macy says, while making her own bed neatly.

"Seriously, An?" Evie says, groaning.

"That's it!" I say, pulling Anna's covers off her bed. What lies before us makes us all leave ear piercing screams of shock.

A/N: CLIFFHANGER. Anyway, thank you guys so much for 5.5K reads! That's so amazing.

What do you think is under the covers?
