-Chapter 3

 John and Alex had been going to the coffee shop together every morning for the past two months. They enjoyed having each other's company, especially when times were rough. 

 But nobody saw this day coming, not even Alex himself.

 ------------------------------------

 Alex had been cooped up in his room all day, looking at the wall in concentration. His eyebrows were knitted together, his eyes blinking every so often. He let out a long sigh, hunching over. He looked at himself and grimaced, disgusted. 

 'This is why no one wants to be your friend... John probably just feels bad for you... he's not really your friend HAHAHA' Alex shuddered at the thought. Today was a shit day, a day when you feel like shit and don't want to do anything but think. 

 Alex was really 'living the shit moment' when he heard his phone buzz. He flopped backwards on his bed, reaching over to his nightstand to get his phone. He looked at it. 

Unknown: "Hello, Alexander."

 Alex gave his phone a look of confusion. He didn't know wether to be confused, or completely creeped out. 

HamSamichess: "...Who's this?"

Unknown: "Meet me at Coffee City at 10:00 sharp." 

HamSamichess: " Um.. ok.. but seriously.. who is this?..." 

 No reply. Alex sighed and shoved his phone back on his nightstand. He got out of bed and decided to do something productive, the 'unknown' person still lingering in the back on his head. He was curious to see who exactly it was, but at the same time he didn't want to know. 

 ------------------------------------

  John had been working at a restaurant down the street from his house, which was exceptionally convenient. 

 He was on his first break of the day. He checked the time. 8:37 the clock read. Perfect. 

 He took out his phone and decided to text Alex, so he didn't get bored. 

 John'sTurtleObsession: "Hey Alex, whatcha up to? 😋"

 John waited for a few minutes, humming to himself before he got an answer.

HamSamichess: "Nothing much, how bout u? 😁"

John'sTurtleObsession: "I'm on my first break rn"

HamSamichess: "o, okie. "

 ---------------TimeSkipppp---------------------

 John had Alex laughing his face off during their text conversation. Alex really liked having John as a friend. He was the funniest dude ever. Like, seriously!

 Alex looked at the time. 9:54. Alex sighed. "I don't have to go..." he said to himself, turning off his phone. He tossed it to the side, only to hear it buzz. Annoyed, Alex looked at it.

Unknown: "you better get your pale ass over here Hamilton."

 Alex rolled his eyes and turned his phone off for a second time. He sighed and got up off of his couch, shoving on his shoes. He was really afraid, even though he wouldn't want to show it. He knew he didn't have to go. But what would happen if he didn't. Apparently, the unknown person knew his phone number, so he/she could track him down or something. He shuddered at the thought, and continued to walk down the street. 

"If my death is ahead of me.. do I run, or do I let it be.." Alex mumbled to himself.

 ------------------------------------

 Alex turned around a corner at the coffee shop he loved. He took a deep breath, bracing himself for whatever was waiting for him around this corner. 

 "So, you decided to show up, huh?" It was a manly voice, and was that.. french..?

 "Uhm.. I guess so...?" Alex gulped quietly, his hands sweaty. 

 "Good. I know you didn't vant your ass kicked straight off zis planet.." Alex could almost feel the evil smirk on this dude's face, his voice was cunning. 

 Alex didn't say anything. He just stood still. He couldn't see the man, and he didn't know where he was, which scared him. 

 Finally he decided to speak up. "Why.. why did you tell me to come here?" He asked. His heart racing.

 "That's just vhat I was getting to. You see, Alexander, I know you have been.. how you say.. crushing.. on a friend of mine," he began. 

"Crushing...? On who?" Alex asked timidly. 

 "John." The man said. 

" John is my friend... not my.. crush.." Alex struggled to say that, it was completely against his thoughts. Alex always spoke his thoughts, but now seemed different. 

 "Zure... vell." The man sighed "unfortunately, under these circumstances, I must do vhat I must do." Alex started to back out of the area they were in, his breathing was uneven. He was clearly frightened. "W-what.. what do you mean...?" 

 He saw the man for a quick second..

 Then everything went black.....
