Jeff's POV

So today's Friday, and I have no idea what I can do. I definitely don't want to go see Skylar, she'll probably think I'm interested in her which might I add is completely ridiculous. An immortal can never have feelings for a mortal, never.

I flopped onto my bed and drifted away to sleep. I broke awake suddenly and sat up. What the fuck? Oh well, I disregard the feeling and grab my knife, shoving it into my hoodie pocket.

I left my house, running to the tree line of the forest. Time to find my next victim.. Or victims. I could hear kids playing and screaming at the park to my left, too obvious of a kill.

I started walking down the sidewalk with my hood over. I must admit, Shawnee was a great city to live in, Oklahoma in general was a great place to live. As I was walking I noticed a girl, about 16 in her backyard alone, I observed the house from outside and saw no one was home besides the girl. Easy target.

I pulled my knife out, holding I steady ready to pounce of this chic when she stood up and skipped inside. "Fuck.." I muttered. She left the back door open and I followed her in. I crept around the house and found her in the kitchen getting a drink. I raised my knife, ready to stab her in her back when she turned around screaming and dropped he glass, shattering on the tiles.

I shoved my hand over her mouth to stop the screaming and pressed my knife to her neck. "Stop screaming, and I may le-" I began but was interrupted when she licked my hand. I removed my hand and knife, wiping my hand on my hoodie. The girl slipped away running for the front door. I let out a loud growl, "oh not the fuck you don't!" I shouted, crash tackling her to the ground. She kicked, punched and clawed at my face, which really irritated me so I stuck my knife into her thigh. She let out a blood curdling scream and I then sliced her throat, "Go to sleep" I spoke. She choked on her own blood and I then cut a smile on her face. Using her blood, I then wrote 'go to sleep' on the wall.

I wiped my bloody hands on my hoodie which was covered entirely with blood and left the house.

Skylar's POV

I picked up my phone checking my Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat etc etc. when finished I got dressed and went for a walk. I attached the leash to Pumpkin and he seemed overjoyed at the idea of going for a walk. He jogged along happily and I followed.

Pumpkin finally slowed to a walk and let out a small growl. "What's up your ass?" I asked, knowing I wouldn't get an answer. I looked up and saw a man in a white hoodie covered in red liquid. They looked up and I saw it was Jeff, "Well hello there Skylar." He said cheerfully giving a small wave. "Hi Jeff." I replied, just wanting to continue my walk.

"And where are you off to?" He questioned. I want actually 'off to' anywhere. "No where in particular, why are you covered in blood?" He gave me a look as if I was stupid. "Ohhhh right! Yeah you're a killer, duh!" I laughed and he just smiled, "Well aren't you the smartest cookie in the jar!" I rolled my eyes and kept walking. "Jerk" I mumbled as I passed him.

Pumpkin and I continued our walk and I passed Nelly's house. I saw police tape surrounded her place and officers everywhere! I jogged up in shock until an officer can running over to me. "Ma'am you can't go in there" he ordered. "Wh-what happened!?" I shrieked. I looked over to see Nelly's parents both in tears. "Did something happen to Nelly!?" I asked the officer. "Yes ma'am, she was murdered by the serial killer known as 'Jeff the Killer' this morning."

Then it flashed by me, Jeff?! Jeff did this?! That bastard!

I began running home, tears streaming down my face. She was my best friend, my best friend. I will never forgive Jeff! I got home and unleashed Pumpkin. I then fell onto the couch, curling up into a ball and crying for a while. After what felt like hours of crying, a sudden rage came over me. I rushed into kitchen grabbing the biggest knife I could find which ended up being a butcher knife. I slipped on black clothes and a black hoodie, sliding the knife into the pocket.

I started to walk through the forest, I had the path to get to Jeff's memorised well. I headed straight there and when I saw it I rushed to the door, pulling out my knife and readying it. I kicked the door open and ran at Jeff, who was standing there confused. I tackled him to the ground and manage to cut his arm which didn't phase him at all.

He flipped us over and straddled me. "Skylar, what the fuck?!" He yelled. I ignored him and clawed at his face, thrashing my legs around until he managed to have my arms pushed against the floor. "Skylar what are you doi-" he started, but I quickly kneed him in his crutch. He fell to the side cursing and holding his crutch for dead life, moaning in pain.

"You killed my best friend you fucking asshole!" I screamed. "W-what?" He chocked back. "Nelly! You killed her you sick bastard! She was my best friend!" He stumbled to his feet and said, "How was I supposed to know she was your friend?" I was furious at those words so I kneed him in his crutch again. Tears filled my eyes and he fell to floor once again.

"Fucking stop that!" He shouted. I quite enjoyed doing that. He stood up and I could tell he was in pain, I laughed at the thought. "Look, Skylar I'm sorry. I had no idea!" Defending himself. I grumbled and ran out of his house, crying my heart out. I could hear Jeff calling my name but I didn't dare turn around an kept running into the forest.

I found a reasonably large tree that seemed easy to climb so I climbed to the nearest limb, about 3 metres off the ground. I leaned my head against the trunk and weeped.

Jeff was running through the forest calling my name and at one point he stopped right underneath me. I was so tempted to skip off the branch and stab him right in the head, but something kept holding me back and the thought of Jeff dead actually saddened me. I kept telling myself 'don't feel this way about a crazed killer, he killed your best friend for fucks sake'. I chose it would be way to stay where I was. Once I was sure he wasn't looking for me anymore, I slipped down from the tree and began to walk through the dense forest.

It was getting dark and I had been siting there for literally the whole afternoon! I didn't feel like going home in case Jeff came looking for me here, so I headed for the park.

It was late by the time I reached the park and no one was there. I sat on the swing and hummed to myself. I heard twigs breaking and looked up thinking it was Jeff. "Fuck off Jeff!" I screamed angrily. A figure began to immerse from the tree line, I began to notice their features. They wore a black and white mask with an orange hoodie.
