3:45pm–
The five teens were investigating Amber's house. Patricia had told them Amber had always hated Joy, for an unknown reason…but it had recently become worse a few days before the murder. Surprisingly, Nina had a spare key to Amber's house, obviously because they were BFF's – ex BFF's. Amber was currently out getting a Starbucks, or so says her Facebook status.
"Wow, this place big!" Patricia exclaimed, staring at the marble floor and designer staircase. "It must have cost a fortune!"
"Yeah, over two thousand apparently," Eddie stated, resting his hand on one of the sculptures. "Whenever we had parties, something would always get broken…yet Amber would replace it like nothing had ever happened."
"And let's not forget her parents are always away on business trips," Jerome chuckled. "She must be a millionaire!"
"Amber always talked about her dad being really into business, and her mother was a great lawyer. They were always out, her dad making new deals and her mom solving new cases…" Nina muttered.
"Anyways, let's stop drooling over her stuff and get digging! I bet she has a diary hidden somewhere in her room…" Patricia said, smirking and bounding up the stairs.
She entered each room, before coming to a bright pink room, with a blue scarf discarded on the floor. The walls were a coral colour, with one big wall covered in hot pink. She had Marilyn Munroe picture hung above her gigantic bed, which was baby pink and had fluffy pillows scattered around the top. Her dressing table was a creamy shade of white, and it had a mirror with butterflies etched into the sides. To the left, was an en suite bathroom, matching in a peach colour and special fish toilet seat. Amber's wardrobe took up half of the wall; it was massive, filled with variations of clothes, bags and shoes.
"Whoa, this is...very pink!" Patricia giggled, and began searching for a book, that was probably going to be pink. Suddenly, she pulled out a soft notepad with the words 'Princess' written all over. Patricia didn't need to think twice to know it was the blonde's dairy.
Monday 11th February –
Dear Diary,
Today, that petite brown haired girl called Joy, caught Harry and I snogging. I made her swear not to tell anyone, and threatened to make her life hell if she did.
I hope she keeps her mouth shut, bitch.
Love, Amber xx
"Who's Harry?" She thought aloud, before closing it and putting it back where it belonged. Patricia decided to go back downstairs, seen as there was nothing much more interesting in the room, other than pink.
"Hey, you find anything?" Nina asked.
"Yeah, I found her diary. On Monday last week she was kissing someone called 'Harry', and Joy saw them together. Amber said that if she told anyone, she'd make her life hell," Patricia recited.
"One question – how do we find out who 'Harry' is?" Jerome asked. "You don't think any of Amber's friends would know, would you?"
"How could we ask them? They hate us all." Eddie said, pointing out the obvious.
"Who's the closest to Amber?" Patricia asked.
"That's easy, Mara." Nina replied. "But how are we going to get her to talk?"
"You leave that, to me." Jerome smirked.
"Mara, sweet and kind Mara, may I ask you something…in private?" Jerome pleaded, turning on the charm.
"Yes, go on. But be quick! I don't want to be seen talking to you!" Mara sighed, sounding irritated. They moved just outside the student lounge and Jerome began to talk.
"Do you know anyone called 'Harry'? Or have you heard anyone being called by the name of 'Harry'?" Jerome asked, placing one hand on her shoulder.
"If I tell you, wants in it for me?"
"Whatever you want, just tell me." Jerome cried in frustration.
"Tell me why you're suddenly hanging with the weirdo's!" She demanded.
"They're helping me…get over Joy's death…" Jerome lied, but however part of it was true. He was till torn up inside about the death, but he needed to find the killer.
"Ok, fine. Mr Edwards's real name is Harry." She confessed, and then walked off.
Jerome had just gotten the scoop - Amber was dating Mr Edwards! He couldn't wait to tell the others the good news…
And more evidence…
