The next morning Randy and Tessa woke up in their marital bed.
Randy placed a kiss on his wife of 10 years lips " good morning beautiful, what does today have instore for you?".
" Good morning handsome. I have a full day of teaching classes then marking to do tonight. What about you?' she asked putting her dressing gown on.
" Actually not a lot so I'll probably be home early tonight. I'll cook dinner ok?" He said.
"Sounds wonderful" she smiled adoringly at him. " I'm gonna shower ok?".
" And I'll make breakfast ' he said kissing her.
He went downstairs and prepared breakfast whilst she got showered and ready for work.
Half an hour later she came back downstairs dressed in a suit and sat to the table where Randy had cooked toast and bacon.
Just next door, Gale and Dewey were also waking up but unlike Randy and Tessa they did not acknowledge each other. Dewey climbed out of bed when his alarm woke him up and Gale went back to sleep. It was no secret that the Riley's were going through a rough patch in their marriage.
When Dewey showered he dressed in his sheriff uniform and was about to get in his car when he heard someone speeding.
It was Kirby Reed on her way to pick up Jill and their friend Olivia. Who also lived next door to each other.
At the Robert's household Sidney had just had breakfast and was dressed for her book signing. She had her hair up and was wearing a bright pink dress waiting for Rebecca to pick her up.
At last the door rung and Sidney answered it.
She got in the car with Rebecca and they drove to the bookstore in town. It was a bright sunny day.
They got out of the car and stood outside the bookstore.
"How do you like the display?" Rebecca asked.
"It's nice" Sidney replied.
"Good, I told the owner i'd kill his cat if he didn't get it right" Rebecca remarked.
"Nice!" Sidney laughed as they both walked inside.
Kirby was just pulling in outside Jill's and Olivia's.
She tooted her horn and a couple of minutes later Jill stepped outside and got in.
"Don't get upset but Trevor called last night' Kirby said.
'Why is he calling you?" Asked an annoyed Jill.
"He knows I have your ear and he wants to fix stuff" Kirby said.
" I don't care. He slept with that blonde bitch and I'm done with him!" Jill exclaimed.
"Here comes Olivia" Kirby said changing the subject.
Olivia got in 'so Trevor called me last night".
"Seriously? What the fuck is his problem?" Jill asked even angrier.
"He wants you back" Olivia said.
" Well he can go fuck himself!" Jill said just as her phone rang.
She saw Jenny Randall as the called ID but answereded it "hello?".
"Hello Jill" replied a man's voice.
"What do you want Jenny?" Jill asked.
"Ahh the other woman' remarked Kirby.
"What's your favourite scary movie?" Asked the voice.
"Okay who is this?' Jill asked.
"I asked what is your favourite scary movie?" Asked the voice angrily.
"I'm hanging up" Jill said crept out.
"I received a similar call from Marnie the carny " Olivia said as Kirby ran a stop sign causing them to almost crash into another car. It shook them up.
"Angel of death, your cousin is" Olivia stated as Kirby then began to drive off.
Dewey had just arrived in the town where insensitive idiots had put ghostface masks up on display.
At the scene his deputy, Judy Hicks was busy working to remove them.
"These had better all be down by lunch" exclaimed Judy to one of her colleagues.
'Good morning sheriff" Judy smiled at her boss. It was no secret to many especially his wife that Judy had a massive crush on Dewey.
"Morning Judy" he smiled. "Seems like the celebration has only began".
"Teens probably" Judy said.
"One generation's tragedy is the next one's joke" Dewey said.
"Sorry that you just can't get away from all this. I wish I had been old enough to have helped solve all those crimes. That kind of intensive investigation helps bond people and strengthen relationships" Judy said.
"No you wouldn't, trust me. Those things would still be haunting you like they do me" Dewey said with a mournful look on his face.
"Would you like a lemon square? They're in my car" Judy asked changing the subject seeing how much it was affecting Dewey.
" I better not" he said.
"You're not cheating on your wife if you eat my lemon squares" .
"But I would be cheating on my diet" he laughed just as his radio went off.
"Sheriff Riley!! Are you there Sheriff Riley?" Asked Deputy Perkins down the radio.
"This is Riley" Dewey replied.
"You have to get to the Randall house it's bad sheriff" Perkins exclaimed.
Dewey and Judy hurried into their cars and sped off.
At the school, Olivia, Jill and Kirby got out and headed for the entrance.
"Who do we have first?" Asked Kirby.
"Your least favourite person Mrs Meeks. The woman married to the man of your dreams" Olivia smirked.
Kirby adored Randy. And they were good friends. They both shared a love of horror movies and Kirby often found herself in the video store late in the evening when it was quiet. She and Randy would often chat about movies. Randy wasn't interested in Kirby but enjoyed having a friend who shared this common interest. After all the murders his wife had gone off horror. But Kirby was crazy for him. And she hated Tessa and would often disrupt lessons just to piss her off.
"Ohh just great" Kirby said before geeky Robbie Mercer appeared with his headset recording.
Robbie's best friend Charlie Walker was also with him, he had a massive crush on Kirby but she was too blind to notice it because of Randy which pissed off Charlie.
"What's your favourite scary movie?" Asked Robbie to Kirby.
"Bambi" Kirby answered sarcastically.
"Haha funny Kirby" Charlie remarked as all three girls went inside.
"She wants me right Robbie?" He asked.
"Only if your name is Randy Meeks" Robbie smirked.
"Asshole" Charlie whispered.
In the school hallway Jill was stood with Kirby as she was getting stuff out of her locker.
"I think Charlie likes you" Jill said.
"And I like him to tease.. to torment.. but he is no Randy" Kirby said.
" For fuck sake Kirby! Randy is a married man to OUR teacher, get over him!! Besides you could do a lot worse than Charlie" Jill said closing her locker to find her ex Trevor standing behind it.
"Hi Trevor, bye Trevor" Kirby said.
"Can we talk?" Trevor said to Jill.
"What is there to say?" Asked Jill.
"Didn't I make you happy? I'm a fool but I still care for you and should never have let you go" Trevor said full of remorse.
"When you hang up the phone, you let someone go, when you leave someone at the airport, you let them go but when she loves you and gives you everything and you cheat on them, that's not letting someone go, that's dumping her, total betrayal" Jill said storming off leaving Trevor standing there.
Suddenly Robbie came update him recording " this is Trevor Sheldon live on hallpass. What is your favourite scary movie?".
Trevor annoyed said "I'll show you, RAWWWR" causing Robbie to run off.
Back at the bookstore Sidney was giving a talk on her book.
" Suddenly I realised it was everything I was. A victim. And it was unacceptable to me. So I decided to sit down and write a new role for myself. A woman who could put all her fears in the past and step out into the sunlight. Out of darkness. Thankyou" she said as everyone began to clap.
"Buy a copy whilst they last" Rebecca said as people began picking up copies of the book for Sidney to begin signing.
Gale then entered wearing a purple outfit.
"Gale I'm so glad you came" smiled a happy Sidney giving her a hug.
Then Randy also arrived "Sid!!!" He said giving her a hug.
"It's so great to see you. Hows Tess?" She asked.
"She's great. She's working today but said she'd see you before you leave".
"I can't wait." Sid said.
Randy picked up a book and in a cheeky voice asked " can I get this signed please?".
Sidney chuckled. It was just like old times " of course you can but it'll cost you $19.99".
"Really?" Randy asked in a pretend sad voice.
"Yes!!! Now get in line!!" Sidney said playfully smacking him.
Gale looked on in laughter at the pair.
Suddenly Dewey burst in but he didn't look happy.
"Dewey!! You came!!" Sidney said hugging him.
"Hey Sid" he said.
"What's going on?" Sidney asked concerned seeing more police turning up.
"Sorry Sid but I have too" Dewey said as everyone looked on to what was going on.
"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone stand where you are and stay quiet please" Dewey said.
"Noone leaves" Judy stated.
"Can this wait? I have a book signing here" Rebecca exclaimed in annoyance.
"What is going on?" Gale asked.
" It's a police case Gale" Judy informed her.
"I was talking to my husband deputy Judy" Gale said.
" We believe a phone was stolen from a crime scene. Deputy Hicks has been tracking it's coordinates to this location. The rest is need to know" Dewey explained.
There was then a phone ringing coming from outside. Dewey, Hicks, Perkins and a young cop called Hoss who was Tessa's best friend went outside carrying guns.
"There" Hoss said pointing at the boot of Sidney's rental.
"It's my rental" Sidney said as Randy, Rebecca and Gale were with her.
Randy put a reasurring arm around her.
Rebecca threw the keys to Dewey.
Dewey then unlocked the car boot and found copies of Sid's book, a bloody knife and a cellphone all smeared in blood.
"This is now a crime scene" Dewey stated.
"Please tell me this is a prank Dewey" Sidney said shaken up.
"Im afraid not Sid. Two girls were found dead this morning" Dewey said.
"Who?" Randy asked.
"Marnie Cooper and Jenny Randall" Dewey said.
"Shit!! They were in Tess's class" Randy said.
