~*~Whispers From the Flame~*~Part 14~
~Jeff began to pace back and forth,chewing on his lower lip as he thought about what he was just told by Savannah~

"No see....why would he do that Savy?It doesnt make any damn sense!"~Jeff continued to pace back and forth trying to make sense of why Chris would kill Savannah~

"How the hell am I suppose to know WHY Jeff?But he was so angry when he stared at the picture of me and him...He growled and was talking about after everything he went through and THEY went through....Then said I had to fuckin die."

~Jeff stopped pacing turning to look at her with a confused expression~"Who is THEY?I mean...Matt and me or what?"

~savannah shrugged her shoulders some,her fiery red hair remained in place~"Thats what I don't know.Who they are....I mean it makes no sense but I know what I saw and heard him say....Just now I have to find proof...and then..I dont know what to do Jeff....."~She looked up at him,sadness in her eyes~"He was a friend of mine ..of yours and Matt's and to know he killed me...and not even know why.."

~Jeff shook his head some~"You cant say he did...not by just what you heard.You have to find more evidence."

~Savannah narrowed her eyes some~"I know he is your friend Jeff...and you want to protect him,but why else would he say I had to fuckin die??"

~Jeff shrugged some,he had no idea why Chris would say that while staring at a pic of Savannah,it all seemed so unreal to him that one of his best friends would kill his brothers girlfriend and have no reason for doing it~

"Listen I believe you heard that...and seen him.But it makes no sense....why would he murder you?Come on think about it,he had NO reason to do it...none what so ever.."

"He HAD to have a reason..because he did it alright?Why are you protecting him Jeff?He killed ME alright?Why do you insist on protecting him?"

"Because.....I dont think he did it okay?"~Jeff looked at her meeting her eyes~

"figures.....it really figures you wouldnt believe he did it.I mean why would you,your one of his best friends right?To hell with me being dead as long as your friend doesnt get the blame..."~she was starting to get angry which Jeff knew was not a good thing~

"Okay tell you what I will just scream it to the god damn world alright?SAVANNAH WAS MURDERED AND I KNOW WHO DID IT!!"~Jeff eyes narrowed as well,not looking away from her~"Is that what you wanted to hear,Red?"

~Savannah's eyes were narrowed dangeroulsy as she stared at him~"Fuck you Jeff....I am the one dead and you are being a smart ass NOW of all times?Tell you what...you take your "friend" and go to hell..."

~Jeff shrugged some getting really annoyed by now~"I would but you will probably be there..."

~Savannahs eyes took a look of hurt hearing his words,her whisper was low and soft~"Goodbye Jeff..."~with that she disappeared leaving Jeff standing in the middle of the back yard~

~neither Savannah or Jeff knew that Jeff was being watched,the person never saw Savannah but they did hear every word Jeff said....and the main words....... that he knew Savannah had been murdered and knew who did it~

~after a few minutes Jeff took a deep breath wanting to kick himself for what he just did,he had hurt her,he knew that,knew it beyond a doubt,but he couldnt handle all of this,Matt needed to know,he couldnt help her alone,him and Matt together could help her~


~Jeff was so lost in his own thoughts he didnt hear the bushes behind him move as someone slid up from them,walking toward him,Jeff never saw the hit to the back of the head,which came down with a sickening thud,knocking him face first into the soggy and wet ground,Jeff's body lay motionless as the rain began to come down harder on his already wet form~

~the person stared down at Jeff,no emotion on there face,not even a hint of guilt,shaking there head they turned and headed back to the house,leaving Jeff where he was....for the moment~

~the person's voice seemed to echo in the wind~

"Should have minded your own business Jeffrey..."
