Blush- Gundham Tanaka x OC

Chapter 12

mentions of bl**d, the horror film 'sinister' (h*nging, dr*wning, st*bbing and b*rning) and ab*se

I sit in the middle of Gundham and Kazuichi on the sofa, and Kaz is holding up a TV remote to the screen, flicking to Netflix.

"Sooo...what should we watch?" he asks, switching between different movie and TV show selections.

"How about we watch a horror film?" Gundham smirks, folding his arms.

"A-A horror? I-I'm not good with those," I whine.

"Neither," Kazuichi chuckles nervously.

"It shall be a bit of fun," he shrugs.

I've never been good with horror films because of them. However, I haven't been getting any flashbacks of them anymore. I think I'm finally starting to feel at ease.

"Uhhh...Tanaka-kun, no offence but last time you said something was going to be fun we summoned a demon and  Kaz and I ended up almost pissing ourselves," I giggle.

"Kehehe, it is fun to watch you two scream," he booms.

"Oh...uh...ok," I stammer.

"Eh, let's just watch some horror films, how bad can they be right?" Kaz shrugs.

I sigh and look at the two boys in turn, their gazes averted to me. "Fine, I'm in."

I've thought up a plan. Operation: Cling to Gundham and make him flustered is ago.

"Alright, which one shall we choose?" Gundham asks. Kaz hands the remote over to him and Gundham searches up 'horror'. I feel my throat begin to tense up. 

After a while of him flicking through various movies and reading their descriptions, he moves the selection box back and forth between three titles, Sinister, Orphan and Friday the 13th.

"Which one shall we watch?" he inquires.

"How bout sinister? That seems like the best one," I shiver. Kaz nods, agreeing with me.

"Alright, I shall put it on now," Gundham announces, turning the film on.

A few minutes in and I'm already shaking. I see four people with nooses around their necks, then they suddenly rise into the air, struggling for oxygen. I shake with fear and begin to sweat. I don't think I'll make it through the whole film.

After a while, the main character starts to play some tapes he found in his attic, and I start to become more freaked out than before. The family had been locked in a car after a nice family barbeque, then burnt alive.

The next tape is a pool party, however afterwards the whole family are strapped to separate lounge beds, then dragged into the water, leaving them to struggle for air before dying.

Then the next one unexpectedly set me off.

A parent was taped to their bad and the cameraman walked around with a knife, then they headed over to the bed, slicing a deep wound into the parent's throat, then did the same to the mother, and even a child.

I feel myself tear up and memories rush back to me. Memories I thought I'd get rid of forever. But I guess it never goes away. 

"AAAAAAAAH!" I scream, quaking uncontrollably. I lunge to the side and plant my face into Gundham's jacket, gripping onto his torso and sobbing, breathing heavily, yet I can hear the shocked noises Gundham makes.

"J-Jinnouchi?!" he stammers, lifting my head from his jacket with his gentle palm. My eyes are wide, tear stained and full of fear. He pauses the movie and holds his scarf up to his nose. "What is the matter?"
