Your POV:

When we walked into the room Toby an I stood in the doorway, slightly frightened at the message written on the wall in blood that read:

THIS ISNT OVER! I'll COME WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT!

We could already guess who it was sense all of her stuff was already out of the room. It was dripping down the wall, making little splatters of blood on the floor. What's the deal with her anyways? Get another guy Clockwork he's mine! I mentally think and say to myself. I feel Toby roughly grab my arm angrily as he made us both walk towards Slender's office.

"Slender!" Toby yelled menacingly. Twitching as he burst through the door, still gripping my arm. "Yes Toby?" Slender asked as he looked up from the paper on his desk. "It's C-clockwork." He said in a low voice, laced with rage. "What has she done now?" Slender asks as he lets out a sigh. "P-please c-come see for y-yourself." Toby said as he moved us to the side so Slender could walk in front of us.

   Slender opened our bedroom door and looked to the wall with the message. Slender looked like he would be pinching the bridge of his nose and sighed as he looked down and shook his head. "I just re-did the walls." He muttered. He teleported away and we only guessed he was going to find Clockwork. Toby sat on the bed with his elbows on his knees and head in his hands. "This is g-getting out of h-hand." Toby said quietly. I walked over and sat beside him, beginning to rub his back comfortingly. "I don't really think this is going to continue." I said. He looked at me and smiled slightly. "I k-know." He said as he leaned forward and pulled his mouth guard down for a quick kiss. I kissed back and we soon parted when we heard Slender's static noise in our heads from his anger as he teleported back into the room with Clockwork. "Clean this up now. There is no explication needed, we already know it was you. Now clean this up before dinner." Slender said before he teleported away once again but this time not returning. Clockwork turned to look at us and growled. "You guys are pitiful." She said as she glared at us with hatred. Well mostly me but us as a couple is what she hated most, I didn't care. I glared at her and was about to get up and hurt her in some way before Toby grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his chest. "It's o-okay (y/n). Let's just g-go so she can clean t-this up before d-dinner." He said as he lead me out of the room and into the living room on the first floor.

"Sup guys." BEN said as he lounged on the couch, playing his game. "Nothing r-really." Toby replied as he sat on the other couch with me beside of him. "Hey BEN, can I play?" I asked hopefully. "Sure just grab a controller." He replied as he nodded his head towards a controller that was next to the system. I versed BEN on COD. I won a few times but I could tell he was purposefully letting his guard down so I could win. "Stop doing that." I whined as he let me win again. "Doing what?" He asked, being obvious. "Stop purposefully letting me win." I demanded as I looked at him sadly. He laughed and looked back to the TV. "Fine." He said, smirking evilly at the TV. "Don't cheat either." I told him as I put my legs in Toby's lap. "I don't cheat!" BEN replied. I snickered and continued playing the game until dinner.

~Short Time Skip To Dinner~

   We all sat at the table without Clockwork who was still working on cleaning up the mess she made. I didn't really expect her to say she did it all that easily. I thought she would at least say she didn't and try to blame it on someone else. Seems like something she would do.

Everything at the table was silent except for the occasional clinking of forks and spoons on plates as we ate the delicious meal Slender made. It started to get gradually louder as everyone started to engage in their own conversations.

"How l-long do you t-think it's gonna take h-her? Do you t-think we'll have to s-sleep in the living r-room?" Toby asked as he leaned over to me. "I'm not sure how long it might take her but I do know that I am not sleeping in the living room. She can stop for the night and continue tomorrow." I replied as I continued eating. Toby hummed in agreement and ate his food as well.

   We were half way done with our food when Clockwork came down to eat. "Have you finished?" Slender asked Clockwork. She nodded in response, smiling as she made her way to her seat and began eating. I could feel her occasional glances on me as I finished my food and put the dish in the sink. It was BEN's day for the dishes and we all know how long that's gonna take.

   I walked out onto the porch and sat on the porch swing and gazed into the trees of the forest. What a day. I mentally thought as I relaxed my eyes and breathed in the fresh air. I heard the door open and close. I opened my eyes to see Clockwork walking towards me. "Can I help you?" I asked, annoyed. "Yes you can actually. I'd like you to stay away from Toby. Or else I'll have to get rid of one of you. And you don't want that do you?" She said as she smiled wickedly. I rolled my eyes at her. "What are you gonna do if I don't stay away from him?" I asked as I stood up and looked out to the sky, over the railing. I was shoved roughly to the wooden ground of the porch and looked up to see Clockwork glaring back down at me as she stood over me. "I said I would get rid of one of you. What about that don't you get? I can kill either one of you without anyone knowing it was me." She stated as she kicked me in the stomach, out of anger. I held my stomach and looked at her with a glare through half lidded eyes that were scrunched in pain. "How would they not know it was you? You'd be the first one they'd suspect." I hissed at her. She only smiled wickedly once again and laughed under her breath a bit. "I have my ways. So unless you don't want him or you to die, I suggest you not communicate with him at all." She stated as she kicked me once more. I held back the food I just ate as she began walking away.

   She went back inside and I stood up warily. "How the hell are they going to believe her?" I muttered quietly to myself as I made my way back to the bedroom, thinking of all the possible ways she could get them to believe her.

   I grabbed some pajamas and headed to the bathroom in our room to get a shower. I locked the door so Toby wouldn't walk in as I lifted my shirt and pulled it off. I looked in the mirror and stared at the big bruise that was beginning to form all over my stomach. I lightly pushed on it and immediately quit when I felt the searing pain spread through out the bruise. I took the rest of my clothes off carefully and put them in the hamper, then put the water to the correct temperature before stepping in and washing my (h/l) hair. I sighed as I felt the hot water massage all the tensed up muscles in my back.

   After I finished with my shower I dried off and put on my pajamas. I quickly brushed my teeth then quietly opened the bathroom door just in case Toby was sleeping. 'How am I supposed to avoid him when we sleep in the same bed!?' I asked myself as I tip-toed over to the bed that had a lump under the covers. Also known as Toby. I pulled the covers back and carefully got under with my back facing Toby. It was going good for a while until I started getting cold and shivered. I pulled the blanket up to my shoulders and curled up into a ball, trying to warm myself up. I couldn't help but remember the feeling of Toby's arms wrapped around me for warmth and comfort. All I had to do was wake him and cuddle him when he turned to look at me but... If she did have a way for them to believe her, either I would miss the feeling of him and his love or he would suffer the feeling of missing someone dear to him. Doing as Clockwork said would hurt him but I don't want to risk anything at all so it's the only option I have. Maybe I could talk with Slender about this. No. I need to deal with this stuff on my own.

   I felt the bed move as Toby shifted under the covers to face me. I felt him wrap an arm around my waist and pull me closer to himself. 'Am I even safe in here and at night?' I thought to myself. I felt tears brim my eyes as I moved Toby's arm off of me and scooted away to the edge of the bed. "Stop m-moving away. I was c-comfortable." Toby complained as he pulled me to him again. "Stop Toby I was comfortable." I said very quietly as I tried my best to contain my sobs and move away from him. He sighed in disappointment and turned back around to where our backs were facing each other. I felt the tears go down my cheeks as I missed the feeling of him holding me.

   'Why am I listening to her? Is my problem that I care too much? That's impossible. I love Toby so much I could care for him so much more.' (Does that even make sense? I hope so.) I slowly drifted off to sleep without the comfort of him holding me and tears streaming down my face as I swallowed my sobs to keep quiet.
