Cruelest Of Hearts~Eyeless Jack X Reader

Chapter 20 Disintegrating World

   

 'Can you please grab something for me to eat? I'm starving over here.' ______'s voice was betraying her grumpiness clearly and the rolling of her (e/c) eyes only served to highlight her boredom as she threw her book aside and rose on her own feet clumsily, walking over to the bookshelf that was closer to her. The female had been reading all day long, books with a rich variety of themes, coming from EJ's very own bookshelves. From what EJ had observed about her in all the days they had spend together –which now reached almost a month-, she really wasn't the one to nag about things and was satisfied easily with some books, coming in complete contrast with what the male had read about the human female gender in books and from all of his encounters with other female Creepypasta; he never failed to notice though, that the few times she did complain, it was usually time for him to feed her.

'Would you be content with some bread and cheese?' he asked, vision never straying from his medical book, even if he barely even registered what he read on the fifteenth line; he was studying his medical books for a few days now, trying to find out clues that would eventually lead him to discover her condition and treat it accordingly, yet all of his attempts seemed to be futile.

Even if he didn't see it, his hunter senses felt her eyes focusing on him 'If you promise not to put any lettuce in like yesterday. God, it was awful.' She commented.

'You should ingest vitamins that are contained in vegetables as well, if you want to avoid serious illnesses.' He simply commented, setting his book to the side and looking over at her, only to see her rolling her eyes once again.

'I already have an illness EJ; at least feed me properly.'

'That is what I am trying to accomplish, but you do not follow it.' He smirked under his mask, knowing that she was unable to see it; in fact, he seemed to do that a lot lately, usually after clever remarks that he knew bothered her but at the same time she couldn't do anything about it, since it was as clear as his murderous nature, that he was right about them. He kind of enjoyed messing with her mind just a little a bit, never straying from his part of the deal in not hurting her of course; through the course of the years, he had seen many of the Creepypasta doing that –mostly Jeff the Killer and Ticci Toby- in a more ruthless way, yet until he came across ______, he never understood why they found the need to do so; something that was pretty clear every time he gazed upon your pouting and clearly annoyed face.

But, there is no time to waste on that right now, since you will only become more nagging with the passing minutes.

'I will be back shortly, make sure to behave yourself.' He warned her, not that she had given him any reason to do so lately.

'Yes master.' you gibed him.

If he continued to have eyes, he would have probably rolled them in the sound of her little 'nickname'. But just like he reacted in various other remarks of hers, he downright ignored them, throwing his feet to the side and raising himself up, making sure that his mask was properly on and his scalpel was resting lazily inside his hoodie pocket, before walking to the door and grabbing the key carefully with his gloved hand. Turning his head to the side, he made sure that both _____ was once again absorbed in her book as well as that no sound of footsteps or breathing came from the corridor that spread beyond his door; no sound whatsoever.
