Lucy the Seeker ( Jeff the Killer story)

Chapter #9- Lies

Chapter #9- Lies

More and more hikers have been trying to visit our house while Jeff is gone, and Jeff thinks I will leave with any of them, so we are moving into some beatdown apartments downtown.

He figured out a way for us to live there for free because he "knows a guy". Now that everything is moved into our " new home". Hah. This is my hell. But of course I keep my mouth shut, and pretend that Jeff my beloved king. Each and everyday, his orders have becoming more unnecessary. Like he orders me to stay up until he gets home from his killing sprees. I have to start his shower, wait for him, then rub his feet. And of course make him dinner.

I only have four hours of sleep daily. I don't know how much of this I can take, I'm exhausted. I fucking swear he's making me baby him! And it doesn't help I'm pregnant. I just wish we didn't have these kids so I could die and finally be in piece.

* Just cut yourself or something.* Dumb idea, Jeff will think I am figuring out another way to escape. So I guess I will just be strong, or pretend to be.. Then I guess I could just ask Jeff to get me something that is at least half way entertaining. I walked to Jeff that was sitting on the couch and watching TV.

" Yes?"

" Jeff, can you please get me something that I can do while you're out?" I asked quietly.

" And why should I do that?" He sat up, looking at me. God he fucking pisses me off.

" B-because, it will help me stay up." He stayed silent for a moment.

" Go get whatever the hell you want. Be fucking back in 40 minutes, understand?" He snapped handing me 20 dollars. " How about you buy some make up? You look like shit, Oh and here." He handed me a pocket knife along with 20 more dollars. I hurried and threw some shoes on and left. It probably wasn't a good idea that I was a young woman walking around in the ghetto around 10 pm. But I could not take anymore nights like this.

I started walking in a fast pace, not too fast to catch attention. But I definitely didn't wanna be stuck with anymore lunatics. I crossed the street to the dollar store.

I walked inside and it was kinda messy, but oh well. I went straight to the makeup section, and grabbed mascara, eyeshadow, blush, foundation, and eyeliner. So I could look like a perfect doll for my husband. Isn't marriage suppose to be about love? I guess not in my case.. Or at least the love was not mutual.

Then I grabbed some notebooks, sketchpads, pencils and sudoku. I also grabbed some cheap food for dinner tonight. And some other lady needs such as chocolate and underwear. I walked up to the cash register. A very short man with yellow teeth, and greasy hair stood there. Licking his lips.

" How may I help you pretty lady?" His voice was raspy like he smoked his entire life. I just handed him the stuff I had in my hands. He slowly scanned each item. And would occasionally lick his lips and look at my boobs.

* Men are such horndogs.*

Oh god, he got to the bottom of the pile, and grabbed the underwear I picked out. And he blushed a bright red on his greasy face and hurried to give me my cash back. I quickly walked outside and put my head down to avoid any other creeps.

As I was walking home, I heard some noises from an alley. It sounded like two people. I would've kept walking but..

* Check it out.* I slowly crept down the dark alley, towards the voices.

" Oh honey, wanna come upstairs?" A girl said, in what seemed like a sexual tone.

" Wait, first tell me why you didn't talk for me for over a month!" She whined. " You were with another girl weren't you?!" I peeked around the corner, I saw a girl around my age, with blonde hair, and wore a skimpy black dress. But I couldn't see the guy's features as well.

" Baby, I-" The strangely familiar voice stuttered.

" Answer me Tim!" What? no... It couldn't be MY Tim..

" I was... But I had to.. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to kill her." He stuttered. My heart stopped... What if it was me?

" Oh my God... You're sleeping with random girls before you kill them.." Her voice shook. Then to my horror, Tim stepped into the light.. It was him... He used me...

" No.. Honey. You're my fiance. I would never do that. I had to get her away from another killer. That's why it took so long. She is dirt to me." No no no.... This couldn't be happening. It was all a lie. I grabbed my pocket knife. And put my hood over my face..

* Kill her. Kill the bitch. You haven't killed in months.* I smiled. This is for my broken heart.

I ran towards them, knife in hand. And as I ran by, I slit her throat. Causing her to fall and gasp for air. He was too busy holding her, rather than to follow me. That felt great. I then realized I wasn't paying attention to time. I looked at my watch as I ran into the apartment building. Thank God I was just in time. I approached our door. And knocked, because it's not like Jeff could trust me having my own key. He opened the door with snow in his arms. She was able to sit up and crawl now. So he just set her down and let her crawl to her toys.

" Change?" I handed him the extra 15 dollars. He cocked an eyebrow. " What else did you do?"

" Killed some whore." I said with a smile. Then it hit me. Jeff is the first person to love me.. " um. Jeff?"

" Yes?" he answered..

" You really do love me, don't you?" I asked quietly. He looked away for a moment.

" I do. but you left me. That's why I must punish you.." He started walking back to our room. Then out of nowhere, I decided to hug him. I wrapped my arms around his chest.

" I'm sorry Jeff... I was ungrateful..." Words just poured out from me, It was like a river, I just couldn't stop. Then the tears began to soak his black shirt. " I shouldn't of left. I know this may not change much. But I do want you to know I am sorry. I love you Jeff.." I cried harder and harder. But he just shook me off, and locked our door.

* At least, he isn't planning on killing you..* Yeah. Hopefully.. Snow crawled over to me with a couple toys of hers.

" What do you got there Snow?" I sniffed. She held up two plastic dolls that were husband and wife from her dollhouse set. She gave me the woman and mumbled what sounded like

" Muma muma."

" Mama?" I asked, could she be saying her first word? but she kept mumbling the same thing. I picked her up and we sat on the couch. I turned on some cartoons for her.

Minutes later Jeff walked out with his usual white hoodie and black pants.

" I'm leaving." He said. As he was walking to the door, I placed Snow by her toys and blocked the door.

" What are you doing Lucy?" He sounded irritated. Then I gave him a small kiss, he blushed and gave me another one. " Just make dinner and leave a plate for me in the fridge tonight. Go to sleep whenever you want." I was confused.

" W-What?"

" I'm going to still to punish you for breaking our family." he paused, " But, for now... get some rest.." He kissed my forehead and walked out.

So many things have ran through my mind. Did I love Jeff again? Did he know that Tim would kill me? I fed, Snow her food and put her to bed. I just sat on the couch and watched TV hoping to get an inspiration what to write or draw. But I dozed off on the couch.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I heard glass breaking. I jumped up to see Tim. Holding his fiance, in his arms, she was breathing, and she looked alive, but her neck was spurting blood. He set her down, and she walked to me with so much grace, she grabbed my throat, her hand was cold as ice.

" Why did you kill her?" Tim cried. " We were suppose to get married next month!"

" You broke me Tim! You said you loved me!" She squeezed, her nails dug into my neck, and ripped out my throat, along with my esophagus, I choked and watched blood pour out of me. The walls started burning as they watched me die.

" You're nothing to me. I wanted to give you the most slow death you could ever imagine. Lucas was suppose to be the proxy, not you." That's why this is happening?

I gasped for air and sat up, I was just dreaming.
