Until We Go To Sleep (Jeff the Killer)

Chapter 18 : Background Check

BEN'S POV

************************

I slept late today. I was watching Shiloh all last night and I was too worried to do anything else. Jeff said to keep a close eye on her. She was sly and quick. He said to make sure shes safe at all costs. Listen to her thoughts and keep track of her actions. I know Jeff cares, but the kid's gotta get his shit together.

Anyway, I woke up at 11 am. Shiloh must've gone off to school. I looked outside. It was raining.

Ugh, this damn weather.

I walked down into the kitchen and rummaged through the fridge. No, no, nah, ugh. Everything required effort to make. I got out a piece of bread and popped it into the toaster. I noticed something by the window sil. It was a small, green stem starting to grow out of the dirt. Must be that rose Shiloh's mom sent over. Weird. She must've just planted it last night, It grew quick. Maybe there's some sort of miracle steroid in it or something crazy. Whatever. Its cool.

I ate the toast and sat on the couch with a blanet and the laptop Shiloh lent me. Damn, she really made me at home. I appreciate it. I dont think Im leaving any time soon. Why would Jeff leave? Or even better, Why did he cheat? If someone treated me like a king like this, I'd stick with them forever. I mean, I know the girl's an odd ball and she isn't all there, but that's what makes Jeff and Shiloh a good pair. Eh, I guess it's none of my business.

I opened the laptop and checked out this website called "cleverbot". I knew what it was and I know everyone thinks I'm on the damn thing, But actually, I've never seen it in my life. Everyone thinks Im some sort of hacker because I was in a video game. Makes No sense. I opened the browser and chatted with this bot for maybe 20 minutes before it started to annoy the piss out of me.

Jeff suggests I Find some info on Shiloh, So I guess I could try that.

I type in Shiloh and the first related search that came up was "Shiloh Marie Foloksho". I guess Jeff was snooping around here before. Fuckin' creep.

*** Six Hours Later ***

Well I definatly found some interesting Data on Shiloh. I know she is constantly either Shunned or she's shy. She's got a few mental predicaments. I know she is suicidal, an anorexic Slash bulimic, A cutter, I know the girl can cook damn well, And I know she's got an open heart. And she loves a guy with emotional openess. And well... Other key facts that weren't important such as sexual orientation and such along those lines. Luckily I can control myself.

Shiloh bursted in at around 8:45. She was wearing this indigo button up and black shorts. She looked freaking exhausted.

"Hey Shi, You alright?"

She trembled as she walked to the couch, falling on her face.

"Rub me."

"What?"

She turned her head at me with almost no effort.

"I just got done with waitressing all day. /Please/ rub me.

A good ten minutes passed by, as I was massaging her legs. She passed out from exhaustion. I put a blanket on her. Heh, She's kinda cute when she sleeps. I walked into the kitchen and hung out at the Island table. She stumbled in after me. She looked half dead with a smile. She went over to the flower that was about to grow a bud and watered it. She walked back out and laid on the couch, slowly going back to sleep.

I looked at that flower. Then back at Shiloh. That girl is a persistant, committed individual. And I like that, Its awesome.

Hopefully I won't be demoted from Over seer to Personal Massuse.
