In Arms Reach ~ Slender x Reader

Part 12|conversations

Jeff throws me into the room I started in, turning back to him I see him lock the door and fast walk towards the window.

"What are you doing?" I ask
"What do you think? I've been dying to kill and this is my only chance" he states, opening the window and jumping onto the ledge
"YOUR GONNA FALL!" I exclaim
"That's the point" he says calmly, jumping off

My mouth hangs open before I run over to the window, leaning out to find his body laying on the ground. He gives me the thumbs up, stands, before grabbing a knife out his back pocket and running deep into the woods.

I'm temped to leave here and now, I could but I would just get lost. Besides, these maniacs know this place better than I do.

I sigh, walk over to the bed and sit down, staring out the window.

My only choice is to stay still and stay silent I guess...

From this angle, I can get a clear view of the room. The four-post bed in dark wood and red covers shaded away by the dark aroma of the room. Even at day the room seams to be still in the dark. A large wardrobe contrasting the same shade of wood as the bed stands beside it and apart from that a vanity on the other side of the wall. I look over at the window, the smashed window sending streams of light into the room (which was the only light which caused my eyesight to work in this environment)

I sigh and fall back into the bed. I think to myself 'who was that guy?' And 'will he come back for me?'

I turn over and confront a pair of eyes staring at me. I go to scream but he covers my mouth... Yep, he... I grab his hand and pull I away from my face-

"Jack?"
"Yep"
"What are you doing?"
"Checking up on you. Jeff left to kill people and I guess I'm the only one with my sanity... At the moment... Anyway, how are you?"
"I'm fine tha-" I cut myself off "what do you mean, at the moment?"
"We all are insane" he moves his arms above his head
"I see..." I sigh
'Great, I'm probably going to be his next victim if he stays here any longer...' I think to myself
"You want me to leave?" He asks in a pouty voice
"N-No" I mumble
'WHY ON EARTH DID YOU SAY NO WOMAN!' A voice screamed in my head
"Fine" he simply shrugs and stares at th ceiling
"....jack"
"Yeah?"
"Why am I here?"

He turns towards me, confused at my question and for a moment hesitated to answer. I sat up along with him and he turns his head away...

"You have to-"
"Ask slender?" I finish his sentence
"Basically"
"How?"
"Um... Talk?"
"Not like that! He's always so busy and I never get a chance to talk to him!"
"Well, he'll be back soon. Your invited to some have a meal with us" he smiled
"As long as it's not poisoned" I mumble

He hopped off the bed and looked back at me-

"Gotta go! See ya!" He calls before running out the (some how fixed again) door "instincts!"

I sat blunt for a moment before getting the memo, he's out to kill. Great, I knew that would happen...

*knock knock*

"Who's there?" I call
"Spider-Man"
"No seriously, who?"

The door open send BEN walks in, watching his 3D DS and playing Spider-Man. He sits beside me and hands it to me.

"When we were playing downstairs, I though you were a pretty good player. I'm stuck on this level! This dude is trying to kill me and I have to save the people!"
"I've never played Spider-Man in my life" I state "only watched the movies"
"Pleeeeeeease" he begs
"Fiiiiiiiiiiiiine!"

He hands me the game and points to what each of the buttons do. Soon I got the gist and began to play. Throughout all I heard of BEN getting over exited and cheering "YOU CAN DO IT!" Or "I BELIEVE IN YOU!" Which made me laugh. He looked suprised, like it was the first time making someone laugh for him. I saw a smile creep to his face and he sighed.

"Tada!" I cheered and handed him back the game
"I think we set off on the wrong foot, I'm Ben Drowned" he holds out his white, cold hand
"My name is (y/f/n) (y/l/n)"
"(y/f/n) (y/l/n)?" He tilts his head, I nod in reply "well, it's nice to meet you miss (y/f/n) (y/l/n)" he nods
"BEN! WHERE HE HELL ARE YOU! IM GONAN BEAT YOU SO HARD THAT-" I heard jeffs voice call, he obviously home
"Oh do be quiet" another voice echos the calls

The owners of the two voices walk into the room and I look at Jeff and the new person.

He had darkish brown hair, an orange jacket, and a creepy mask on. Yep, that totally sums up someone in clear detail (yes, please do note the sarcasm)

"Jeff you b***h! You came to apologize?"
"pfff! As if! Slender told e to check on the girl"
"her name is (y/n), get your facts right" Ben glares
"OOOOOOOO!" the unfamilair guy yelled, flairing his arms and running around
"And you are...?" i ask, staring at the guy

He stops and stares a me a moment before returning his hands to his side. He walks over to me and holds out his hand-

"Im masky" he states
"Its a VERY original name" Jeff rolls his eyes
"and what type of name is Jeff?" Masky turns to jeff
"a pretty smexy one" he strikes a pose
"oh brother" masky facepalms
"wow, first time i heard someone in this place use a figure of speech" i state
"huh? Oh no, i was referencing my brother"
"Please don't day he also has an 'original' name" I sigh
"Well..." He scratches the back of his neck

Just then, in a split second, the window smashes... Again...

"So this is where you've been keeping her"
