*Jessy and Stephan (Male!MC) oneshot based on Duskwood episode 6*

    Jessy's call, showing me places in Duskwood, the market square, the church, the cafeteria, the library... I imagined Duskwood a little different, something more... Like Twin Peaks? Maybe because of everything I had heard about the town and its legends.
    All day showing me Duskwood, freeing me from a day of stress because of everything that was happening. Almost no one stopped by the music store after what Lilly did, so we closed early. Seeing her smile made me feel a strange sensation. Her smile was warm and we joked. We opened up a little about our lives, getting to know her better.

    But something terrible happens while she is on her way home, talking about Thomas and Cleo trying to sneak into the basement of the Aurora.
    What had been a peaceful day has ended up like a nightmare.

    "JESSY!" I screamed when I saw Jessy being attacked, it was not something I expected to see through my phone.

    I feel helpless not being able to be there with her, punching the guy who pushed her. And I'm usually peaceful, but this makes my blood boil.
    The Man Without a Face picks up her phone from the ground and I see Jessy lying on the ground, unconscious.
    He shows himself on camera, almost defiant.

    "You bastard..." I say through my teeth, without looking away from him, "I'm going to go after you and I'm going to finish you off, son of a bitch! I'll get you! I swear! You're not going to get away with what you did to Jessy, you fucking bastard!"

    "Jessy! Please wake up! Say something!" I shout again, worried about seeing her.

    I see that she is finally moving and I breathe a sigh of relief.

    "Are you okay?" I ask, but she doesn't answer.

    She picks up her phone and hangs up.

    As I pack up, I try to text her, worried that she hasn't answered. I also warn Thomas that Phil is going to call the police to report him and Cleo for what they did. And I decide then to make a decision: Right now, Jessy needs me. It's my fault what happened to her, I must fix it and help her.
    I also text Macie, knowing that I somehow brought her into the matter and she has become friends with Jessy after they both worried about me because of what Lilly did, she deserves to know.


    I get home and Sky greets me, wagging his tail happy to see me.

    "Hello friend," I say quickly, "let's pack our suitcase_"

    "The suitcase for what?" Sophia comes down the stairs, arms crossed "Where are you going at this hour"

    "I have to go to Duskwood," I walk past her, kissing her cheek, "Jessy was attacked because of me and now she needs me."

    "What does she need from you?" I make a sound in my throat as if to nod, while I take the suitcase and some spare clothes out of the closet, even if it's just for one day.

    Sky stays waiting lying on the floor and I hear Sophia's heels enter the room.

    "You can't leave, you have to prepare the music for the video," her tone of voice is angry "Stephan," she lets out a rather strange laugh, "you owe me for everything you've put me through with your scandals."

    "I can do it another day," I answer, trying to close the suitcase, I have packed everything in due to the rush, "I can't abandon my friend now."

    "And I'm your girlfriend!" her exclamation is more of a high-pitched squeal.
