 I couldn't sleep again this morning. My brain was too distracted with thoughts of him. His gorgeous yellow complexion glimmering under the moonlight, his delicate arms wrapped around my waist, his mesmerizing ocean blue eyes gazing up at me, it was all I wanted. I craved his touch so much. Simply being in a room with him was addictive, with his voice like honey leaving me endlessly wanting another taste of its sweet sound.

A knock at the door snapped me out of my daydream. I was exhausted, but got out of bed to go answer it.

"Ted Nivison?" It was the first time I'd seen him in over a year. I swore I wouldn't say another word to him after I walked out of his apartment that evening, yet here he is at my doorstep.

"Hi, Slenderman." Hearing my name come out of his mouth was like being stabbed in the chest. It was somewhat relieving to hear his voice, spending four years with someone can get you attached after all. It took me back to when we were together for a moment. Things were so good then, how did it all end up like this?

"What's going on? Why are you here?" I asked.

"It's about Gojo." That's how.

"No. No, no, no, no, no. We are not doing this right now." I didn't want to do it. I couldn't hear him talk about Gojo. Not after what he did to me.

"Slendy, please," he said, his words being presented to me in the most sickeningly sweet manner.

"Don't call me that. Get away from my house." The anger was bubbling up in my chest as I spoke.

"Someone needs to take him!" While his friendliness towards me may have been fabricated, the desperation that rapidly overtook his voice was real. "I can't be a single father anymore. Do you know how hard it is? Can you even grasp the fact that maybe you deciding you want nothing to do with us could be life-ruining? You never took even a second to consider the consequences of your actions."

"You're telling me to consider the consequences of my actions?" The aggression I presented while saying this took me aback a bit, but that didn't stop me from pushing forward. "You cheated on me. You were with Jack for over a year, Ted. Maybe you should've considered the consequences of your actions while you were getting in bed with him. Gojo isn't mine."

"You don't know that!" He began crying as he spoke. "We don't know who the biological father is yet. Slenderman, if you'd just listen, you'd know I regret every moment I spent with Jacksepticeye. He never could have replaced you. I was stupid. I made stupid mistakes. Just, please, I need you right now more than ever."

"Now isn't a good time," I responded flatly. I wasn't falling for his act.

"When is a good time?" He dropped any last remaining bit of the friendly act right then. The violent demeanor I'd become well-acquainted with during our time together was starting to show. "You're never around anymore. Don't act like I'm the problem. You left your son and now-"

"He's not my son." I slammed the door shut at that.

He started pounding at the door as I slid down to the floor, back against the wall, and put my head between my knees. If I had eyes, I would be crying right now. I could feel the sensation burning in my throat. I wanted him to go away.

Eventually, the pounding stopped. The silence was eerie. I crawled over to my cell phone and did the only thing I knew how to.

"Hello?" There it was. Spongebob's voice. He was just on the other end of the receiver. It calmed my nerves so much. It was like the world slowed just for us.

"Hi, uh, it's Slenderman," I said, attempting to mask the pain in my voice with a false confidence. He doesn't need to know what happened. He doesn't need that burden on him.

"Are you okay? It sounds like you've been crying." He knows me painfully well.

"I'm just really having trouble processing what just happened." I told him. I rushed through my sentences as the time I spent speaking was time away from his voice.

"Is this about Ted?" I'd told him about Ted a while ago. I liked to give Spongebob updates on my life regularly and, in turn, he did the same. It was a nice little system we had.

"Yeah, he showed up at my house this morning..." Maybe I didn't want to hide things from him.

"Oh dear..." he spoke in such an empathetic way. He didn't sound like he pitied me, but he wasn't turning a blind eye to my problems.

"He wanted me to take custody of Gojo," I spoke slowly, processing each word that came out of my non-existent mouth. "I said no. I know I'm not the father and I couldn't deal with what he was saying. I'm sure he's on his way to talk badly about me on Twitter right now, too."

"What if..." Spongebob paused for a moment. "What if you were to make a video about him and post it? If you're ready and comfortable with it, of course. He just... he has such a large following of people that have only heard his twisted side of the story that villainizes you. If people only knew what you've been through, perhaps it would lead to Ted's downfall."

I thought about it for a moment. I hadn't even considered that before. This would give me the chance to take down Ted. I'd be able to be on the internet again without receiving tons of hate the second I showed up. I could stop being attacked left and right. It would be the perfect revenge on him.

"That's a fantastic idea," I told him. "Maybe I will do that."

"Of course," he said. "Now, I have plans to go somewhere soon, so if you think you're doing alright I'm going to go get ready for them."

"Yeah, I think I'm okay now." I didn't want him to go, but I can't control his life. "Have fun!"

"Yes, thank you! Goodbye!" He hung up before I could. While I was left alone now, I was left with an idea. A plan. I knew what I had to do.
