i accidentally killed my bestfriend but he came back pt2

(This is a work of Fiction)As i followed Timothy into the forest, i made sure to be gone only a little while since i didn't want to be caught pass the town's curfew and also my break was only 30 minutes.

As i followed him from a distance i made sure to to step on twigs or crunchy leaves to draw his attention.

i meant it when i said the forest was so unexplored even the town's elderly never really explore the forest.

at our age.

the farthest the forest was explored was a Storm Drain not far from town.

it was usually clogged so it needed to be cleaned every six months or so.

So there was a beaten path everyone followed to not get lost.

As i followed Timothy i see him stop in front of said Drain pipe, I hide behind a tree as he sits on a Nearby rock and begins to speak into the drain pipe.

"hey buddy, it's me i'm back and i have food for you.

You promised me last time that you would try the meat cooked this time.

so i was thinking we could start a fire and try to cook them together." i didn't really know what he was doing.

if he was feeding the dog just feed the damn dog.

I decided to take advantage of the situation and confront him.

i step from behind the tree crushing a twig on purpose to get his attention.

when he eyes met mine, they filled with fear and anger.

"what are you doing here?

did you seriously follow me into the forest?

what do you want?!" i walked towards him until we were real close face to face.

i want you to stay away from Stacy, you know i liked her and you have the audacity to laugh and talk with her like best buds" Timothy's body shook, before the diagnosis and the Accident he was a Confident boy and was the best soccer player aside from me.

it makes me sick seeing him turned into some meek little boy.

"this again?

if your gonna "claim" Stacy at least as her out!

you've liked her since middle school!

if you haven't asked her out at this point then it's your loss" i grab timothy by the collar.

"you Stole her you jerk!

and if you don't leave her alone i'll make sure you limp with both legs!" a growl could be heard from the Storm drain, whatever it was it did't sound like dog it was an Animalistic growl but at the same time it sounded human.

but at the time i was too angry to care i grabbed a rock and chucked it into the drain pipe.

timothy pushed me "stop leave him alone!" i punch timothy hard in the face.

he slips back onto a few rocks and i hear a loud crack.

My eyes widen ad my heart nearly stops.

in my anger i made him fall as he snapped his neck on the rocks.

i had killed my best friend in cold blood.

my stomach urged me to vomit but i held it in.

my mind flashed to me o trial and rotting in prison.

i couldn't face what i did and before my mind could take anymore of my guilt, i ran.

i ran as fast as i could.

i ran back to the grocery store i ran into the bathroom and began to vomit.

i had killed my ex best friend.

and now i don't know what to do.

it took me awhile to calm down, they won't suspect me if i don't look guilty.

i regret what i did but i refuse to go to jail.

i went back to stocking the shelves.

my hand Shakings and i jump at the smallest noise or abrupt sound.

After closing i said goodnight to veronica and walk home.

my heart still pounding from the days events.

when i heard it.

A loud inhuman scream, causing the birds that were flying in the sky to fall.

A scream of pure anguish and agony.

locking my limbs in place.

my body petrified in fear.

Everyone else heard it too, and they couldn't move.

fear had frozen us in place as the yelling only grew louder.

before finally silencing.

"what the hell was that?" i asked myself, before bolting to my home.

i have a feeling i won't get much sleep tonight.
