Mystery/Thriller Prologue {ROUGH DRAFT} | Writers Collab

I didn't really wan't to make a project for this so here you go
This is obviously a super rough draft!! Also very short, as I just wanted the GENERAL Idea instead of a full prolouge!
I made two Prolouges. The first is from the Killers POV and the Second is from the Victims
_____________________________________________________
Killers POV
I sat, my jacket drifting slowly off my shoulders staring out of the window of the cafe, I was watching a couple arguing quietly in the parking lot. Her smile to to fake, her hair knotted in a loose bun, she avoids eye contact, she's constantly pulling her hair out of her face. His eyes moved to quickly, he fidgeted, he stared to intently, he lied constantly, there were holes in this shirt, he never smiled.
People didn't notice the power of observation, they thought they could lie to me, they thought they could get away with it, they think they did. But I see the curve of their lips, a twitch, a small figit, a heightening of voice and I can tell. It's so easy to me, to easy.
You can take control if you know someone better then they might even know themselves, you might think thats impossible but smart people don't always know their smart, dumb people don't always know their dumb, foolish people don't always know their fools. But I can tell always
It seems like a gift, but nothing is as it seems. Lying is a dangerous thing, it makes people angry, and a furious person is never safe, when your like that you can't think, you can't feel, you can't remember. You're numb to the world and everyone around you. And that will make you a monster.

TW: ⚠️ Violence ‼️

I took one more step closer, they flinched and stepped back. They said something, or tried to, but it sounded more like a low rasp. Fear glinted in their eyes, fear of me. Pain, fear, bewilderment, I've seen it all before, being someone like me it was easy to see me like this. Especially when your then you get it so much worse.
I stepped closer again grabbing their wrist, they twisted it and pulled, trying to push away.
I was about to lead them away when a glint of silver crossed my vision, their other hand held the handle of their blade, the other end was in my chest.
I gasped, a wail left me and I collapsed on their floor.
“I had to,” came a hoarse whisper. They repeated it until the world fell into darkness.

VICTIMS POV



I didn't think she had it in her. Heck I didn't even know she had it ON her,but there is a man on the floor with a knife in his chest. So it's been a night. This right here is why I need to break up and fast. That's what I was planning on doing by the way. I've been with her for way too long. Usually I'm only with a girl for a week tops,so yea when i called her here i thought i would go like it always does. I tell her I'm getting bored,she gets mad,i remind her to “hate the game not the player” and then i get ready to call the police,but seeing her looking down at a dead body makes me want to rethink telling her in person.
Oh and on another note…..WHAT IN THE WORLD JUST HAPPEN. I was shocked when this guy came to us and GRABBED US. I'm not weak,but it dosent mean I'm brave and this guy should have been in the NBA with his build. (you can tweak and work from here)
