5. Jennifer
A/N: This is the last of the one-shots. Since people were so curious about what was in Jennifer's box, I chose to create some twisted idea of my own. I actually thought about doing a chapter for Renee, but really, she got her happy ending - so I could care less. But please R&R! :)
Jennifer Evans opened the box. That box entailed some of her biggest secrets. The contents of it stared at her until she was blue in the face. As she viewed the single object that lied her biggest secret, she realized her problems would never ever go away. Especially the one that lied right in front of her.
She tucked the box in a safe cabinet, where she then proceeded to lock it. Her husband, Steve, walked in.
"Hey honey," he said, "What do you think of this place?"
Jennifer turned her head in the opposite direction. She didn't want her husband to know that she was still worked up over her past. "It's great," she said, "Just great."
Steve put the box down on the hard-wood floor, and he scanned the room. He then noticed that his wife could not bear to look at him. He walked over, and placed his arms around her stomach. He hugged her and she welcomed his embrace.
"I told you once, and I'll tell you again: you have nothing to worry about anymore." comforted Steve, "All our problems ... they're gone now."
Jennifer pushed his hands away. "Like hell they are!"
"What are you talking about? Yes, they are!" he exclaimed, "We left them all back in Indianapolis."
"Really? We did, did we?" Jennifer replied. She grabbed Steve by the arm, and they walked over to the garage. Jennifer then let go of Steve, and she got the key out. She placed the key in the cabinet, thus opening it, and then she handed the box to Steve.
Steve then decided to open the box, and he could not believe what he saw.
"Oh my god," he said, "This is bad."
"Yeah," Jennifer declared, "This is really bad."
Inside the box was their worst nightmare: the gun they used on the night they committed a very heinous crime. There was a blood stain on the grip, and one bullet remained in the chamber.
"You remember what we did with that gun?" asked Jennifer.
"We killed your mother." coldly stated Steve.
"And do you remember why?" she replied.
"Because she knew about all the other people we killed." said Steve with a smile.
Jennifer laughed, and Steve kissed her.
"I'm going to run out and get the rest of the stuff, I'll be right back." Steve said.
"Alright babe." said Jennifer.
As Steve left the room, Jennifer eyed the garage. She looked around, fearing that someone had overheard her conversation. Jennifer looked at the box once more, and placed the gun beside it. She opened the secret compartment to the box, and found a crinkled up note. She unfolded the note, and read what it said...
The truth always has a way of coming out
And you can't hide your dirty little secrets forever
You will pay
Jennifer crumbled up the note and threw it across the room. She grabbed the gun, and realized that it was time for her to do what she had been longing to do for awhile. She cocked the gun, and aimed it at her head. She took one last deep breath and let the gun fire.
She then fell to the floor, and died a few seconds later. Back outside, Steve greeted his new neighbors: Lynette, Bree, and Gabrielle. Though the warm welcome was shortly interrupted by a loud bang... and Steve and his new neighbors found Jennifer Evans dead.
