A Little Laughter Left In Me... (Laughing Jack x Reader)

~4 Days till the trip~~Henry~~Stranger..?~

You wake up feeling tired, you barely got any sleep last night, you couldn't stop thinking about the pair of eyes you saw in the bushes, and by 4:52 in the morning you finally managed to fall asleep from exhaustion.

You sat up and grabbed your phone to look at the time.

-8:39 A.M. Tuesday-

"Only 3 and a half hours of sleep...Perfect." You muttered to yourself.

You decided despite being tired, you should still get out of bed for the day. You heard the text tone on your phone go off, It was a message from another best friend of yours, Henry Monroan.

You met Henry a few months after you had met Alex during summer vacation, it turned out he was a transfer student from another school a long way from your own and had to move due to reasons he couldn't explain.

He has short dark brown hair with bright blue eyes, he wears dark green glasses and has a scar on the left side of his lower lip, it looked like it was cut with something sharp like a knife, you asked him about it but he said he didn't know how it got there.

He's shy and sometimes lonely, but around you he is happier and more cheerful.

You and him loved eachother but it wasn't in a 'lover' sort of way no, it was more of a 'brother and little sister' type of love, because suprisingly he was a year older than you, and he cared about you deeply.

Alex and himself would sometimes playfully argue about who cared for you more, you didn't quite understand it, but it made you feel happy and special.

His dream is to be a paranormal investigator, and when you three had decided to visit England, he thought of this as the perfect opportunity to start that career off and has been researching these 'Creepypastas' and their 'Origins' ever since.

You excitedly picked up the phone and looked at the message you had received.

'Hello (Y/N)! It's been a while since we've talked, so I thought I would check up on you, it's getting close to the big trip you know! I don't have any plans for today and I was wondering if you would like to spend the day together, I'll be in the woods if you'd like to join me, I'm going to see if I can find any signs of what might have happened to those poor children. I hope to see you  soon! Your big brother, Henry :) <3'

You sighed as you thought of how kind and brave he was being.

"Same old Henry... always trying to be the hero." You laughed to yourself.

Henry always tried to be your hero when you were younger, he would always protect you from bullies and even strangers that walked up to you and tried to take you away, you knew he was scared too, but he still did everything he could to keep you safe, just like a good big brother would.

You set your phone back on the nightstand and walked over to your dresser to get your outfit for the day.

You decided to put on a long sleeved (Favorite Pokémon) shirt and a pair of loose gray jeans, this pair was a bit longer and went down to your shoes and often overlapped the back of them, so if you stepped in a puddle they would get wet too. You didn't really mind it though, you thought of it as proof you went outside that day, instead of just playing (Favorite Video Game) the whole day since you had nothing better to do.

Once you had gotten cleaned up and got on your clothes, you decided to put on a pair of slim leather boots you had downstairs for the day since, well, you were going to be in a woods and who knows what could be in there.

You grabbed your phone and went downstairs not even bothering with your parents since it seemed like you would just end up with nothing but cold silence as an answer.
