The Memoirs of a Psychopath
Chase slowly pulled the key from the ignition with a loud painful grunt. “I don’t want to be here.” He thought to himself. Deep down however, Chase knew that if he wasn’t here, his planning would never be complete. He always took mental notes of what his therapist told him to do, and he did the exact opposite of that. Early on, she had ordered him to count up to ten when he got upset and felt like he was losing control. Deliberately, he counted down from ten and waited to see how long it would take after that for him to snap. Currently, it's been three years since the last time that he counted down from ten.

The Memoirs of a Psychopath
Author's Note: Hello! Before I get into the first part of this fictional endeavor, I'd like to tell you more about the story before you read. This story follows a young man who is dealing with inner demons that push him more towards the brink of insanity before he finally snaps and goes off the deep end. If you like what I write here, please be sure to continue reading as I will be posting a new chapter every other day. I will also be starting another thread in the horror section following the strange encounters of a prison guard. Thanks! I hope you enjoy.

Money Hungry (Chapter Two)
Jason stared blankly into space for a moment before he spoke. “Pregnant? You sure baby? Last I heard I was shooting blanks and we couldn’t have kids.” Kalana was tall, slim and almost majestic when she walked in a room. She had perfectly smooth light brown skin and see thru hazel eyes. She spoke with what sounded like genuine concern. “Yes baby I know and I’m as surprised as you. But my doctor confirmed it I’m six weeks pregnant. I thought you would be happy.” Jason smirked slyly on the other end of the phone. “ I am happy just a little confused and taken aback. I never thought in a million years we could have a kid. Where are you? Can you meet me at the house?” Kalana seemed to be calming down. “Sure baby where are you? The office?” Jason was pacing his office with a sneer on his face “Yea I just got here but I’m going to call it a day and meet you at the house. I drove myself today my driver has the day off. I’ll see you in about an hour.” Kalana actually smiled. “Okay I’ll see you there baby can’t wait.”

Instant Karma!!!!
The full moon and the stars glistened brightly in the sky above; not a single cloud could be seen in sight. Drops of rain fell from the night sky as if the sky itself was crying. The loud roars of thunder could be heard as the icy water raced to meet the ground. The falling rain complimented the beautiful night sky making it almost look enchanting. The little droplets of rain hung onto her long lashes, and then down her freckled cheeks, kissing her natural two-tone plump lips before dropping in a puddle on the concrete sidewalk. The heterochromia iridium in her left eye twinkled in the moonlight showing the mischief and excitement lingering in her unique amber eyes. Her thick wet, strawberry red curly hair danced down her back in ripples as she ran. The sound of her thin boots squished and squeaked as she ran through the puddles.

“I got this one, you can get the next” John cheerfully offered as he pulled out his wallet. “I take it next time you want to hit up somewhere expensive” Zach joked. Lunch hangouts had been the new norm for John. His friend Zach had really been there for him through all of the tragedy. Though it was more often a burden than a help, any more John preferred to be alone. Nevertheless, John appreciated the thought..

Money Hungry
Chapter One Jason Jones stepped out of his Pearl White Rolls Royce Cullinan with the smug look of a spoiled billionaire. “What a day.” He said dismissively to himself. He was a short slightly chubby man with dark brown skin and small eyes that set back in his head. He wore a Rolex Sky Dweller, $4000 Dior high tops and $35,000 diamond encrusted custom shades. He looked like success. Inside he was dying though.
