Snippet #5708

Leila blinked, realising she had taken it for granted that everyone would want to know who was the killer. Izzy and Christi had clearly stated they wanted to know, though whoever was guilty would watch their back even more with those two after them. She couldn't blame them -- she just wanted to get out of here. Steve had said he would help, which was good, because that made them the majority. She doubted Rinni would try to stop them, in the unlikely event that she disagreed, but Matt…Well, Matt was in denial. His mind was revolving around himself, which was just what they needed right now. She sighed, but she watched him as well. Her teeth unconsciously pressed into her bottom lip, once, twice, again, again. How was he going to react to Stephen's comment? Even though it was probably true, considering Matt's reputation, it was insensitive. The others were talking on, but she waited on his response. Mainly she wanted to cool him down a bit, but there was still that second motive, preying on her mind. Like a dripping tap in her ear: find the murderer, find the murderer. As she had the habit of doing, Leila was pressuring herself into taking on a job too hard for one kid to handle.
