Planning to make my chapters a bit shorter because I don't really want a book that's 400- 500 pages long.

f/f = favourite food

What a slut lol cheer up lizzy, we r here for u

lmaooo she's so pathetic, stealing other people's men what a hoe

Haters gonna hate. At least you know that theyre worthless pieces of shit that don't deserve to be your friends!

I understand how you feel. People like that are absolutely disgusting.

She's just jealous cuz she isn't as successful as u. Liz, u r my queen <3

how did she get ur bf to cheat. like, shes so ugly haha

These were just a few of the comments directed to you. Leon had finally made a social media account to look through what Lizzy has been posting. He found out that not only did she ruin your reputation online with fake lies, she had also written subtle messages that led to biased opinions against you. That manipulative bitch.

It made him angry, thinking of how insecure you could've felt after reading these comments. How dare someone ruin your image!

'I think the world would be better without her...'

'Get rid of her then.'

'When?'

'As soon as possible.'

With that single thought driving him, he started to refine his plan.

"Wow! It's so pretty! Thank you, Alec!" You opened a small box Alec gifted you. It was a . Encased in the ring were enchanting pink little flowers preserved in the resin. Small white balls of 'snow' made it seem all the more beautiful.

Grace and Melody were both revising for the physics test next period while Gabriel was finding a new book to read. You, Alec and Leon were in the cafeteria for once because the kitchen was serving your favourite food. You had checked the menu a few days prior so decided not to bring any lunch today.

"Right? I was passing through one of the shops when I saw it and I was like 'woah, that reminds me of Y/N' so I bought it." A preserved flower, trapped in a ring to admire... it was much safer than leaving the flower to grow and die, isn't it?

"How much did it cost?"

"Hmmm, around a hundred or more I guess? I don't remember." Your eyes widened.

"Dude, that's too much! You don't need to spend that much just because the ring reminded you of me."

Alec waved his hands dismissively. "It's seriously fine! Keep this a secret from the others, alright?"

"You're one of the best friends I've ever had," You beamed. Not only did Alec joke around with you, he bought you gift occasionally, listens to your troubles, and won't criticize you for every single thing you did, unlike Lizzy.

"Now try it on!" Alec took the box from you and quickly inserted it onto your ring finger on your right hand. It fit your finger perfectly. How did he know your ring size?

Alec smiled. Imagining doing this in a wedding was very delightful. When he marries you, he's gonna take you on the most luxurious honeymoon ever and make lots and lots of babies. Ryan, Eloise, Archer, Ariana - he's got at least 10 names prepared.

"Leon! Do you like it?" You showed your ring to Leon, "Alec gave it to me."

"Hm..? Oh, yeah... It's fine, I guess." Leon seemed to be distracted. With one hand under his chin, he looked far across the distance, the expression on his face as serious as The Thinker.

'Just what are you thinking of, Leon?' You wondered. Even squishing your boyfriend's face didn't affect him. He'd be blushing madly by now but the look on his face showed that he wasn't uneasy at all.

"Is something wrong?" You asked him, concerned. He finally turned towards you and started to wave his hands around in a flustered manner.

"O-Oh! It's nothing, really. I kept thinking about our kiss last night..." Alec spat out the water he was drinking. They kissed?! Of course they did, they're a couple but still, he didn't expect them to advance that early on. The look on your face confirmed it all.

'She's just deluding herself, that's all. Soon, she'll realize that Leon isn't the one for her and come running into my arms. I'll make sure of it.' Alec smiled. 'She'll be grateful when I get rid of that bitch for her.'

"...better get used to it!" Alec snapped out of his daze and back to your conversation with Leon.

"Hmph."

You turned towards Alec, who made the sound, and asked him "What's wrong?"

"It makes me jealous when you give all the attention to your boyfriend. I feel like the third wheel here!" He pouted and crossed his arms, cutely turning around so he didn't face you.

"Oh? Sorry, I promise I won't talk about these things in front of you." You laughed embarrassingly and hugged him quickly from behind.

"Good. Now, would you like me to feed you some of my F/F?"

Leon's jaw dropped. Wasn't he just talking about being the third wheel?

"H-Hey! I have some left t-too." Leon scooped up a spoonful of F/F from his tray and put it close to your lips, prompting you to open them to take a bite. You complied, slowly chewing and swallowing the food.

"My turn! My turn!" Alec used his own spoon and fed you as well.

"Are you trying to fatten me up so you can eat me?" You asked after swallowing the food Alec gave you.

"Hmmm, maybe." Alec winked.

Unbeknownst to you, Leon shot him a death glare as he hugged you from behind. Alec responded with an easily deadly smile.

You relaxed as you felt your boyfriend's arms wrap around you. What a pleasant day.

Leon: Hey Liz, was wondering if we could talk over coffee

Lizzy: oh, so now u come to me now?

Leon: I want to apologize for treating you so horribly in the past

Leon: I didn't realize how nice you truly were to me

Lizzy: haha, yeah i am pretty nice if u know me

Lizzy: i honestly didnt understand when u treated me so coldly, like did i do smth to u

Leon: I apologize for my behaviour, I wasn't very good at socialising at that time.

Leon: So... coffee?

Lizzy: hmm sure

Lizzy: Y/N won't be there right?

Leon: Yes

Lizzy: k, good cuz i don't wanna see her ugly ass face lmao

Leon: Can we keep this a secret between us? My girlfriend doesn't know about this.

Lizzy: sure, how bout we go after school

Lizzy: we can get a little crazy ;)

Leon: Definitely very crazy :)

"Go on without me today."

"Eh?" Is Leon tutoring someone? Normally, he'd go home with you after school by taking Alec's limo. But lately, Alec has been more busy with student council duties meaning you and Leon would go home without him. Luckily, today was Alec's free days if you remember correctly so you still had someone to talk to on the ride home.

"I'm meeting... an old friend."

You blinked. Had he ever mentioned anything about old friends? You seem to recall nothing regarding that matter. "Have I heard of them?"

"Er, no." An awkward pause.

"Okay then. Guess I'll get going." You pecked him on the cheek.

At least that was what you were planning to do. Leon had instead captured your lips with his into a kiss and firmly held the back of your head so you couldn't break the kiss.

Slowly, you kissed back, though you were a bit inexperienced. You expected your first 'long' kiss with Leon to be gentle but it was rather passionate and a tad possessive. While one hand gripped your head, Leon's other arm was wrapped tightly around your waist to secure you from leaving.

By the time the kiss ended, the two of you were out of breath and panting. Since Alec wasn't here yet, Leon decided to go in for another kiss but before he could-

"I'm here~"

Leon sighed. Speak of the devil. Looking at your red face, he combed your hair with his fingers to make it neat again and straitened the parts of your outfit that he had messed up during the kiss. He leaned towards you and muttered, "Don't think we're done here, okay?"

When the heck did he get so bold? Not that you didn't like it wink wonk. You nodded, unable to speak.

Leon smiled in return, hugging you tightly. "I love you," was what he said before he left.

Huh? Did he just confess his love for you and left? You really need to have a think about it.

Little did you know, your boyfriend was going to the restroom to calm himself down. When Leon turned his back on you and walked off, he couldn't help but smile widely at how smooth it went. Now he couldn't stop. He thought he'd end up as a blushing mess. The shy boy proudly patted himself on the back. He should definitely do this more often. The look on your face was more than satisfying to look at.

Splashing his flaming face with cold water, he took deep breaths and thought about his meeting with Lizzy. Everything was prepared, so now all he had to do was follow through the plan.

"Y/N~" Alec called your name. The two of you were in the limo, the chauffeur driving you home. "Since I'm free and you're free, let's hangout at my house today!"

You thought about it. Ever since dating Leon, you worked harder when it came to studying to try to keep up with him. Your grades have certain improved since but you have found yourself getting a bit bored of this routine. Maybe this could be a small break.

"But what can we do at your house?"

"I have a lot of things we could have fun with and we could also just lie on my bed and watch Netflix if you want?"

'Maybe Netflix and chill,' He wished. If only that were true.

"Sounds good. Let's go!" You cheered. Alec cheered with you and told the chauffeur to go back to his house and send you back home later.

When you arrived, you started to explore his whole house. The house was massive, and the last time you came here was when the party Grace invited you to took place, so you didn't remember much other than how big it was.

Starting from the bottom floor, there were numerous rooms that had little to no purposes and echoing hallways. Examples of rooms on the bottom floor was the huge room that Alec had used during parties, living room, the dining room, and a room for sitting or waiting. Alec said that nobody used that room unless there were guests, which was rare.

The top room mostly consisted of bedrooms and bathrooms. However, there were exceptions such as the cinema room, musical room, and the 'art exhibition' room that Alec's late mother has collected when she was still alive. You noticed that the last room was much more well kept than the others. After that, you guys stayed in Alec's bedroom, which was much bigger than the average guestroom.

The two of you had lots of fun; since Alec had lots of blankets and pillows, the two of you made a huge fort, made popcorn, and watched Netflix in it. For fun, he asked one of the maids to bring him nail polish so he could paint your nails. Although nobody in his family owned nail polish, the maids certainly did. They brought him a variety to choose from and you chose to paint your nails in F/C with a layer of holographic top coat on top. After he painted your nails, you decided to paint his.

"Now we're both fabulous!" Alec struck a pose with his nails. You quickly whipped out your phone and started taking many photos while Alec propped himself up against the blue wall.

In the end, the two of you had lots of fun. By the time you realized it was time to go home, it was already way past supper. Alec sat closely next to you during the ride home while you and him joked some more. He tried to subtly tilt his head and lean on you but you just shook him off and chastised softly him, talking about how you were uncomfortable with this action since it was reserved for your boyfriend. He pouted and crossed his arms.

'When will she see that I'm the only one that's right for her?'

A girl sat tied up on a chair and blindfolded in an unknown warehouse near the city. She knew who kidnapped her, and she was not afraid. Who did he think he was, drugging her and taking her somewhere disgusting and dirty?! Once her parents find out, he's done for!

"Ha, you think you can get away with this? My parents will find you and make sure pay for what you did! We'll make sure your family owes more money than they already do!"

Leon rolled his eyes. "We'll see about that." With gloves, he touched the edge of the black knife he bought in Agatha's Antiques, feeling its sharpness.

"No stuttering? I guess it was a facade for Y/N. Nobody would want you anyways. I bet she just became your girlfriend because she pitied you."

"Nope. Stuttering has become quite a natural thing to me. But I realize, that I tend to be more... confident when doing things that I quite enjoy." The knife was sharp enough. Lizzy, realizing the situation, started to panic a bit.

"You want money right? You can have it. I'll give you however much you want, okay? Just leave me alone. I won't tell anyone about this." He could hear a bit of fear in her voice, giving him a teensy weensy bit of satisfaction. But it wasn't enough.

"Who said I wanted money? You're so s-shallow to assume, L-Lizzy. And why would I let you go when you could easily rat me out with your filthy rich family?" He brought the knife close to her neck, making the girl's breath hitch.

"Then what do you want? I promise I'll do my best to give it to you." Lizzy started tearing up within the blindfolds.

"Can you repair Y/N's self esteem? Can you give back the years of damage you've caused in my p-precious girl's confidence? Can you r-reverse everything y-you've done to her online? Can you j-just e-erase your own e-existence?" Leon's stammering suddenly skyrocketed, releasing the anger he felt that had been kept in for a very long time.

The girl stayed silent.

"I thought so." Leon thought about what to do first. After all, you could do many things with a knife. Before he could speak again, Lizzy spoke up.

"-N... it's all about Y/N." She muttered in utter hatred.

"Hehe... what did you say?"

"That fucking bitch! This is all her fault! I haven't done anything!" The knife on her neck was pushed deeper in, causing a little bit of blood to seep out and making Lizzy yelp.

"R-Really? Then can you explain your fake post about Y/N and I?" Oh man, Leon's hands were just itching to choke her.

"I-I was joking, g-geez. Why can't you take a joke? I never meant for all this to happen, I swear! I thought that you would play along or something." Lizzy started sobbing. If only the world could see through all her bullshit.

"You need a better excuse, considering how you have a few hundred thousand followers and that this was definitely not a joke. Now, which part of you should I cut up first? I was thinking of your eyes so you won't ever have the privilege to see my Y/N." Leon now moved the knife near her eyes, poking around the skin that wasn't covered by the blindfolds.

"W-W-What?"

"I was j-joking! Geez. W-Why can't you take a j-joke, Lizzy?" Leon cackled. This was absolutely delightful! Just the look of fear on her face...

'I'll avenge you, Y/N.'

Leon started speaking again. "Instead, I'll cut up your tongue, since that's where most of the bullshit comes from. When I'm done with you, the world will be a happier place." It was truly a sad society, with social media and hate everywhere. If he could just help out a bit, it would make a big difference to your happiness.

"P-Please! Someone save me! Help!" Lizzy screamed and struggled. But it was no use, since nobody could hear them.

"Any last words?"

"Y/N is definitely going to l-leave you for A-Alec. He was always the b-better choice anyways. I hope you die of a painfully." Lizzy sneered.

"Hopefully not as painful as you, h-haha." Leon has come up with at least 20 different ways of torturing someone. If not, more. Guess he'll try all of them today.

Lizzy whimpered a bit before sobbing. It seemed like she truly did not know her boundaries.

"H-Ha.. ha... let the fun begin."

Leon's first victim... are you proud of him?
