                                 JAKE'S POV
I couldn't help but glance at Michael a few times, he didn't look at me when I looked at him but he looked at me multiple times when I stopped looking at him. We got to the suffocation pit, luckily, nobody was there. Since not many people talk to Dwight, he likes to explore certain areas, but he wasn't here so he was somewhere else. "Michael, I've been meaning to ask you something." Michael turned to look at me, "Do you hate David?" Michael looked like he was about to nod, but he shook his head. "Are you lying?" He didn't nod, he didn't shake his head, he didn't shrug, he just looked away. Looks like I already had my answer to that question, I think I already knew why he didn't like David. I didn't pry any further after that, I grabbed both of Michael's hands. I didn't say anything to him but he knew I was comforting him. We didn't talk much and just left, the question I had asked made everything awkward. I went back to the campfire and he went back to Haddonfield. I sat next to Dwight, David was there as well, but I didn't pay them any mind.
      I was a little down that I didn't get to talk to Michael much, but Dwight noticed something was wrong. "Jake, are you okay?" Dwight whispered into my ear, I shook my head. He gave me a hug, "What happened?" I sighed and I told him everything that happened. "Jake, maybe you need time to yourself and not spend 24/7 with Michael.." I looked down at the ground, maybe he was right. "Thank you, Dwight. Could we hang out for a while?" I wanted to spend time with Dwight, he was one of my best friends after all. "I said alone, not with me." He laughed, "I know, but ever since I started hanging around Michael, I haven't had time to be with you." He huffed, "Alright Alright! I'll hang out with you but you have to promise me that you WILL spend time alone sometime after, before seeing Michael again." I nodded and I grabbed his hand, I wanted to bring him to my favorite place.
      I was practically dragging him, he couldn't keep up with my running so I slowed a bit. I decided to take him to Shelter Woods, it was dark and comforting. We sat down against a tree, we hadn't even started talking about anything and I felt happy to just be there. Dwight and I talked about various times the killer got confused of where we went, we laughed and had a good time. Eventually, Dwight had to leave to go against another killer. I bid him goodbye and I sat against the tree, wondering what I should do next. I wanted to go see Michael but I wanted to listen to Dwight at the same time, maybe he was right. I thought about a few things but I decided that I should take a nap for a while and go back to the campfire.
      Except.. I had a hard time falling asleep, I don't know what it was but something was off. I sighed, got up and decided to take a walk around the woods. Surely, I'd fall asleep faster if I was tired from walking around and exploring right? I was basically dragging my feet, I didn't feel like walking but I couldn't take a simple nap either. I kept feeling like someone was watching me, I didn't try and figure out if someone was and who it is, I was too tired. I decided to just walk back to the tree, I slowly sat down. My eyes shot open as I heard a twig break in the distance, but not far from where I was. I just wanted to take a nap, was that too much to ask for? My eyelids got heavy again but I saw something walking towards me, or rather.. someone. When I opened my eye fully again, nobody was there. This time, I was sure that I wasn't alone and someone was here with me.
I got up and I walked for a while till I reached another wall, God.. it felt like I had been walking for a while now, I ignored all noises behind me which didn't work well if I was trying to not be scared. I took a deep breath and I closed my eyes and tried to sleep, until I was interrupted AGAIN. This time, I was annoyed, I huffed and I got up once more. I swore I saw a figure behind a tree, should I leave? Yeah.. I should and I should go fast.. I snuck as quietly as I could around the woods. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, I froze when I realized.. whoever it was.. was right behind me. I couldn't tell who it was, I could hear faint breathing.
