Jeff the Lover?! - Kelly Bui (good summer reads txt) 📗

and out her knife between their faces. They stopped talking immediately and looked straight at Kelly. "What seems to be the problem here?" She asked, obviously pissed at something. 

 

"He took my teddy bear!" whined Sally.

 

"No I didn't!" Jack replied, making Sally cry. Kelly turned to Jack, giving him a death glare. Jack shut up and reached behind his head then pulled out a teddy bear, with a missing eye and arm, and covered in dried blood. Sally reached out and hugged it. 

 

"Teddy!" She exclaimed and skipped off. Kelly hit Jack's mask with her knife, getting some blood on it. 

 

"Idiot, you don't take a little girl's teddy bear!" Jack wiped the blood of his mask and shrugged.

 

"Whatever..." He said and walked off. Kelly sighed and held her head. She started to rub her temples and her legs got wobbly. She suddenly collapsed on the floor and Slenderman kneeled down, panicking, not knowing what to do. 

 

"Just carry her to her room Slendy... She's had a rough day." I said. Slenderman nodded and picked her up then carried her to her room. 

Chapter 7: What's Happening to Me?

 

Kelly's POV

I had a head splitting headache and started to rub my temples. But suddenly everything got blurry and it started to get darker and darker until I finally blacked out. I collapsed with a loud thump! Hitting my head, and leaving a small bruise.

 

====================================================================

 

Screams... All I could hear was screams and crying... The sounds bounced off the walls and back at me... Where the hell am I? I tried to cover my ears and stop the screaming but it remained the same. I ran around the endless space around me but the screaming continued. Walking around, covering my ears, I continued walking around the endless abyss. Suddenly, the screaming stopped. I uncovered my ears and found myself hearing the sound of a little child crying. There was the child, about 50 feet in front of me... It was a girl. I ran to her side, as she was sobbing and hugging her knees. What's wrong? I asked. I got no answer. But instead, she stopped crying and looked up at me. My jaw dropped. Her face was covered in black and purple bruises along with a couple scars, a bloody nose and a black sockets for eyes.

 

Am I not beautiful...? She asked me, wiping the dripping black ooze from her sockets. I opened my mouth to speak but nothing came out. Am I not beautiful? She asked again but more in an angry way. I opened my mouth. Again, nothing. You think I'm ugly! I couldn't say anything. I tried to mouth 'You're beautiful no matter what' but she couldn't read my lips. She suddenly let out an ear piercing scream giving me a headache once more. She tackled me and got the black ooze all over me. I opened my mouth to scream. But this time, sound came out. Making me relieved. No one can hear your screams... Said the little girl. She raised her hand, with her nails longer and sharper than before, and scratched me across the face.

 

====================================================================

I sat up, screaming and hold my head. Jeff was sitting in a chair next to my bed looking worried. My hands dropped to my lap as I calmed down.

 

"Kelly...?" Jeff asked. I was looking down at my hands that were in my lap, not saying a word. Then to my right, the bed sank a little. I looked up to see Jeff, with the worried look still on his face. He put his hands on my cheeks and wiped tears from my eyes that I didn't notice. I put my hands on his... They were surprisingly warm and smooth. I cried even more at his touch and stuffed my face in chest. He fell back on my bed, with me leaning on him. I sobbed into his blood stained hoodie as he patted my head trying to calm me down.

 

"Are you okay, Kelly...?" He asked in a soothing voice. I nodded. He lightly smiled and kissed my forehead. Shocked, I looked up at him and saw he was surprised, too. Another thing I noticed, was his cheeks. Was he blushing? They were a light pink that seemed like he was blushing because of his bleached pale white skin. Seeing him blush, made me blush. And soon we started laughing at how long we were staring at each other in shock. 

 

I sat up. "Mmn!" I groaned as I stretched. 

 

"You better now?" 

 

"Yeah... Thanks for cheering me up, Jeff."

 

"Anytime." Sitting on the bed, I thought of what I was going to do next. 

 

Growl.... Went my stomach. I looked over at Jeff and he was staring at me, trying not to laugh. 

 

"Someone's hungry," He snickered. "How about a hot dog?"

 

"Why not? I haven't eaten since I got here." We got off the bed and walked down the stairs. Slendy came over to me and out his hand on my forehead. His hand was so big, it covered my entire face. I think his weird expression was relief right now because I was alright or something. 

 

"He was worried because you collapsed in front of him and didn't know what he did. I said it wasn't his fault, you just had a rough day." I looked up at Slendy and his expression was probably a smile. At least that's what it looked like. I smiled back at him and gave him a hug.

 

"Thanks Slendy...!" I said. He was surprised at first but he hugged back, accepting my hug. I could see Jeff out of the corner of my eye. He was looking at us, smiling like a proud father. We let go of each other and I walked into the kitchen, where Jeff was. "So," I started off. "When am I going to get my new axe?" 

 

"Oh..." Said Jeff. "Well about that... I had Jack, Ben and Slendy look for one." He opened a cabinet and pulled out a pretty big box for it to fit in a cabinet. He opened the box revealing two amazing and brand new axes. One small hatchet and a large two-handed axe. I stared at them in awe. "They only found these two and they didn't know which you would like so they brought both." I didn't say anything, I just reached down and pulled out the large one. Holding it up, I admired it for the longest time. 

 

"Thank you guys...." I hugged my axe, satisfied with my gift. 

Chapter 8: Does He Really...?

 I was so happy with my gift. Jeff just laughed at my reaction while he was making hot dogs. "Jeff?" I said.

 

"Hm?"

 

"Thanks for the axe..."

 

"No problem!" He laughed. I jumped up and gave him a hug. "A-ir....." He raspily said as I squeezed him.

 

"Oops, sorry..." I lessened my grip but I was still hugging him. Suddenly, Ben walked in and pretended to gag.

 

"Get a room you two." He said while opening the fridge. I rolled my eyes and looked over at him. I ran over and gave him a hug, too. "H-Hey!" He said when he was pushed against the wall from my tackle.

 

"Hahaha!" I laughed as I squeezed the air out of him too. He didn't hug back so I looked up at him. He was blushing and looking in another direction. I blew some air to his chin and he looked down at me, blushing harder. I gave him my best puppy eyes and he looked away. Finally, he gave up and hugged me back. "Haha yay!"

 

"Yeah yeah..."

 

"Where's Jack? I want to give him one, too." I asked. Ben just shrugged.

 

"I think he's in his room," Jeff said. "I don't know what he's doing though." I just shrugged and walked up the spiral staircase then down the hallway where all the rooms were. I found Jack's door that apparently had signs saying "Do Not Enter" and "I <3 Kidneys"... He was playing his rock music really loud that I could hear all the way down the hall. I knocked on his door.

 

"Go away! Can't you read?"

 

"It's me, Kelly." The music turned down a little after I said that. I heard the door unlock and the door swung open.

 

"What do you need, little murdering princess?" He said smirking.

 

"Um... I just came to say thanks for finding me the axes... I chose the big one if you wanted to know."

 

"Oh... I expected you to choose the big one because of your big personality." He winked. I rolled my eyes. "Want to come in and talk for a while?"

 

"Sure, why not?" He moved out of the way so I could enter his room. I walked in to his room, covered in band posters with a black and blue striped painted wall. He also had his own personal bathroom and fridge. I walked over to his bed and sat down. It was super soft so I fell onto my back and sighed.

 

"Haha, try not to make yourself at home in here." He turned his music up a little.

 

"Oh I won't." I said sticking my tongue out a little. "I love this band, 'Get Scared'? Mhm."

 

"Really? They're my favorite!"

 

"Same here!"

 

"Who else are you into?"

 

"Well I love Pierce the Veil, Sleeping with Sirens, My Chemical Romance, etc..."

 

"Wow... You are the most amazing girl I have ever met..." Jack said.

 

"Pardon?" I asked confused.

 

"Nothing...!" He said, looking embarrassed.

 

"Okay then..." There was awkward silence between us for a moment. "So um... What do you want to talk about?"

 

"Uh..." He said, thinking. "Oh! I've been meaning to ask you something!"

 

"Sure, what is it?"

 

"Um so don't take this the wrong way but... Do you like Jeff?"

 

"Yeah as a friend or mentor. Why?"

 

"Just wondering. Because he like likes you." He said, laying on his back staring at the ceiling.

 

"Wh-what...?" I was shocked. But he asked me to be his apprentice... "Y-you're lying..." Although I wanted it to be true... Stop! He's my mentor and room mate. Nothing more.

 

"No, it's true. I can tell, but how come you didn't notice?"

 

"I don't pay attention much..." I said, embarassed.

 

"Ha ha... Of course you don't!" He laughed.

 

"H-Hey! That's mean!" I put on a pouting face making me look like a little kid.

 

"Aw...! Is little Kelly in a bad mood?" He laughed.

 

"Whatever..." I stood up and gave him one more hug. "Anyways, I'm going to go back downstairs."

 

"Okay. Bring me up a soda?" He asked.

 

"Nah. I'm fine not being a servant." We both laughed and I left. I walked back downstairs and sat down at the dinner table, stretching. 

 

"Dinner's ready!" Jeff yelled. I laughed at him. He looked over
