Jay's secret

You woke up to the sound of soft knocking. Drowsily, you jumped off the bed, being careful not to disturb Ginger. You opened the door. "Jay!" You said in a surprised whisper. "Hey, I hear the cafeteria is open 24/7. Wanna go get something to eat?" He asked coolly. You accepted the offer. You and Jay walked down to the cafeteria. "Hey noobies!" Some stalky brown haired guy said. "We're not noobies." Jay growled. "Okay, pizza face!" He called, pointing to you. "Enough." Jay said. "Okay, you two lovebirds!" He teased. "I said, ENOUGH!" Jay roared. At first, you were surprised at his raised tone. Next, your eyes fell to his arm, except, it wasn't his arm. It was a skeletons. You screamed and stumbled backwards. The stalky brown haired guy was staring at Jay's arm, dumbfounded. As soon as he heard you fall back, the skin on Jay's arm grew back, and he went over to help you up. "I can explain." He muttered. "What a-are you?" You stammered. "I'll tell you later." He said. "You can tell me NOW." You snapped. Jay told you the story behind his skeleton features. At the part about his dad strapping him down, his skin started retreating from his fingers, but quickly returned. At the end you asked, "When does it happen?" "Either when I'm angry, or I will it to happen." In the end, Jay walked you back to your room. "See ya later, Trixi-gator!" He joked. You went back to bed, dreaming about Jay being a skeleton. You dreamed about him in his white t-shirt and black sweatpants shorts.
