Creepypastas + Reader: If You Founded The Slender Mansion (The (Y/N) Mansion)

9 - Let them go?

You were laying in your bed attempting to sleep, but it was proving difficult thanks to the sounds of your newest Creepypasta, Kagekao, sounding like he was throwing stuff...? and just completely making a mess downstairs. You were between just ignoring it and going downstairs and locking him forcefully in the basement to shut him up.

You were about to turn and cover your head with your pillow to block out the noise when you suddenly heard a loud knock coming from your window. You groan loudly and allow yourself to float up from the bed and onto the ground, then you slide on your mask before pushing open the curtains.

You see Zalgo sitting there on your window ledge, seemingly lounging and waiting there for you to show up. You just stood there and glared at him. 'Should I open it for him or should I ignore him and go back to bed...'

Shrugging your shoulders, you decide to do the latter, but before you could walk off, you suddenly feel yourself being transported and next thing you knew you were walking off the ledge outside your window. You began to scream but felt the fall immediately stop short as something grabs ahold of your pajamas.

"And good evening to you too, (Y/N)..." Zalgo's voice yawned at you and you rolled your eyes, letting your arms and legs fall before you. "It's 11 at night, F-Y-I..."

"Does it look like that concerns me? And to think you were about to walk off on me when I came here to greet my old friend."

You felt yourself being pulled upwards again and Zalgo places you back on the ledge in front of him. You grumble and sit down hesitantly and hug your legs. "You're just here to tell me everything you don't like about what I'm doing."

"Well, that too."

You sigh and lean your head against the window glass, avoiding Zalgo's gaze. "I don't get what you don't understand about me being lonely and just wanting a few friends with the same values as me to hang around."

Zalgo titled his head, "Your new "friends" consist of a little girl, a clown, and...whatever the hell that black and white thing is."

"...They're cool!"

"Point is, your choice in "friends" are horrible. Was I not enough for you? After everything I gave you?"

You huffed, "You're always busy looking after your kingdom and what not. You're too busy and powerful to be my friend."

Zalgo rolled his eyes, "You're really acting like a child, you know."

"Nyeh."

"...Listen (Y/N), despite the fact that I'm mostly busy, you should be honored to have me as your one and only friend. I sought you, a simple human as worthy of even upholding my powers! You're nothing without those powers, you know, and I could easily take them away..."

Upon hearing the mention of your abilities getting taken, you turn to Zalgo with a frantic expression, which causes the man to smirk and burst out into laughter at your reaction. "See? Even you know it well, (Y/N). Without me, you're nothing. I'm the only one you'll ever need. Those pathetic free-loader friends of yours aren't actually your friends...I'm sure in time they'll only take advantage of your kindness, you'll see."

"I...they're not like that...at least not Sally I'm sure..."

"And what if they find out you're human? How will they treat you then? Won't they turn their backs on you?"

You shook your head, "I doubt it. Kagekao knows I'm human...but he still came along with us-and he never even told Sally and LJ."

"He only bothered since you offered him repayment."
