Jeff's P.O.V.

Iris stood next to me as we waited for Slendy's new arrivals. He invited some old friends to come and live with us, but Iris was very untrusting. "Iris, calm down a bit. I think that we can trust them." She rolled her eyes. "I know you trust them. I don't. That's all I'm saying on the subject." She faced away from me, staring off into the distance.

Finally, two people dotted the horizon. "They're here." They passed by the point where Slendy prevented others from entering. Iris stared at them. It was a girl and a... Guy, I guess. They were both strange looking, to say the least.

As they got closer, I examined them. The girl had long, straight pink hair and pale skin. She wore a leather jacker with a denim skirt. The smile on her face was probably one of the most unsettling things ever. Her gray eyes were soulless and merciless.

The guy with her had black hair that was choppy and messy, like mine. He was also very pale. I suppose her must've been some sort of clown or something... A fucking twisted clown, but a clown nonetheless. He had a nose that looked more like a snowman's nose, in the way that it really didn't have nostrils or anything, but was just there and stuck out in the way a snowman's nose does. It was swirly, black and white. He was dressed in black and white as well. As for his height, he was at least twice Iris's size, maybe a little shorter than Slender Man.

Soon, they were directly in front of us. Iris glared at the girl. "Hello. We're here to see Slender Man, a close friend of ours. I'm Pinkamena, and this is my..." She looked uncomfortable. "Er... Special friend." I nodded, understanding. "I'm Laughing Jack." His voice sounded insane, but then again, so did mine.

"Hey, I'm Jeffrey, call me Jeff." I introduced. I turned to Iris. "Well... Say you're name." I said. She crossed her arms. "Wow... Fine, I'll introduce you." I turned to Jack and Pinkamena. "This is Iris. She is in a piss poor mood, right now, don't ask me why. She'll warm up, though." I explained. Laughing Jack smiled. "She your girl?" he asked. "Yeah... She's in a shitty mood, though, so she won't be very affectionate with me." I laughed. "Yeah... Women are like that. I've had this one for almost three years now, and I still barely get it." Pinkamena elbowed him. "Shut up." she hissed. "My point exactly."

We all got on our way to the meeting house, Iris still angry for some reason and Laughing Jack and Pinkamena trying to talk to us. "So... If you don't mind me asking, what's she like in the bed? Good?" asked Jack. "One, she won't have any yet. I guess it's just her being herself, but she wants to wait. Two, why do you want to know?" I glared. "Just asking. My girl is awesome, trust me." Pinkamena smiled at him. "It's nothing, really, I-" Iris looked at us. "What is wrong with you three? Stop asking creepy questions!" Jack laughed at her. "Ah, so it finally speaks?" he chuckled. "I can speak. I can also beat the shit out of you." Laughing Jack fell to the floor. "No you can't, honey. Sorry."

When we got to the house, Slendy opened the door. "You're here! Great! Good to see you, Laughing Jack! ... Pinkie..." She turned away. "Uhm... Good to see you, Slender Man." I gave him a strange look. What was up with that?

"I see you've met Mr. Philips and Miss Morerose." They nodded. "Jeff tolerated us and Iris pretty much hated us." Slender Man let out a small, low laugh. "That's Iris for you. It's best not to take it to offense, it's just the way she is." Iris rolled her eyes. "Yes, I may be untrusting, but at least I have a face." she hissed. Slendy stared at her for a long time and I could tell she REALLY pissed him off with that comment.

I took her by her arm and pulled her into the house before she pissed anyone else off. BEN was glaring at me from the other couch. BEN was usually a coward that shivered when I gave him a hateful glance. Now, with Iris, he acted like he didn't care if he got his ass beat. I couldn't tell if that made me give him more respect for growing a spine or more hatred for his love for Iris, probably both.

Iris sat on my lap and soon we were in a very heated make out session that we weren't ashamed to show everyone. "Hey, Jack and Pinkie, you see them? Yeah... That's how it usually is with those two. Get used to it." laughed Masky. "They usually suck on each other's faces?" asked Pinkamena. "YES!!! They do!" yelled BEN. Even when he tried to sound angry, his voice came out nice and soft. "Awww... How old are you, little guy?" asked Pinkamena. "I'm eighteen." he answered. "Oh... Then why is your voice so soft? It's so cute and sweet!" He crossed his arms and stood up. "Just go away!" he screamed, running out. "I'll tell you the story with BEN later."

After a while, we all went home. Iris still wasn't pleased, and I was worried that I did something. "Are you pissed at me?" I asked. "No... I just... I don't trust those guys." I put my hand on her shoulder. "I'm pretty sure we can trust them, Iris. Slendy let them in, after all." She looked away. "I don't know. I think I need a little rest. Maybe we'll talk tomorrow about it.

We got ready and down in bed. Iris changed right in front of me and laid down. She let out a small sigh. I collapsed next to her. There bad been a question on my mind for a little while. "Iris... In a few years... What do you think about maybe... I dunno... Starting a family or something?"
