BITTERSUITE - BILLIE EILISH

Theron is dead silent as we meticulously stage Jackson Wicker’s murder scene. We scrub the bedroom for all potential evidence leading back to us and then set up everything perfectly for when the police show up.

He’s not found until the next morning, having bled out on his bed, stripped naked, lying right next to his personal laptop with the heart-shaped Valentine card directing authorities to check the files saved on the device. His thousands of files of sickening child content are easily discoverable once they do.

The news spreads like wildfire within minutes.

Theron and I are lying in bed at my apartment as we parse through the many stories pouring in from the media. He’s still angry with me on some level, his tone clipped, though that didn’t keep him from pulling me close lying in bed.

“It looks like it’s gone as we hoped,” he says, scrolling through the articles on his phone.

I’m seated beside him, my legs folded under me, as I browse on my laptop. “It seems the major headline is the fact that he was a pedophile. Which is exactly what it should be. If Valentine were still around, Mr. Wicker would deserve to be his victim.”

Theron raises a brow at me. “If he was?”

“Twenty years later,” I clarify. “Whoever Valentine was… if he’s still alive…”

“That brings us to a topic of discussion we’ll have to go over. Just why you’re seeking to imitate the Valentine Killer in the first place.”

“I never intended for Mr. Wicker to wind up dead. That was sort of… you.”

“For good reason. That still doesn’t explain why you were imitating Valentine.”

I shrug. “I have my reasons.”

“Which are?”

“It didn’t involve you until you followed me. Are we going to talk about that?”

“No,” he answers succinctly. “Because I saved your life.”

“I had it under control.”

He grabs my face to turn it toward his and then kisses me on the mouth. “You didn’t have it under control,” he says, our faces almost touching. “Jackson Wicker was going to drug you and do as he wished. You couldn’t have fought him off. We will discuss this in more detail soon. And you will be punished for this stunt.”

“More like you’re looking for an excuse to use the yardstick again.”

“I don’t need the yardstick. I now have the lovely wooden paddle Wicker thought he’d get to use on you.”

My cheeks warm as I turn away from him, scooting off the bed. Theron eventually follows, working in tandem with me as we make the bed and then get ready for the morning. He has to go check on Atticus while I have some art projects to work on.

We kiss goodbye as we walk from the bedroom to the rest of the apartment. It’s as I stand back to let Theron step toward the door that I notice something off that I’d missed late last night when we’d come home.

“My sculpture,” I mutter. “It’s been knocked off the shelf.”

Theron stops at the door to glance over. I’ve
