Human Again (A Jeff the Killer story)

46. My Angel

Hi guys!
Thanks for being here again, and sorry for the delay. Holidays are always busy!
Anyway, here's chapter 46, which is...a little boring, I know. But stay tuned! Action is coming, along with the end. I'll try to make it awesome for you!
Enjoy,

When I wake up, the first feeling I get is the warm cocoon of the white sheets on my nearly naked and now cold skin. My body feels sore too, but I don't care. I feel happy - like never before. Embraced in the sheets and with Jeff's smell, I feel accomplished.
I turn in the bed, hoping to feel Jeff's body next to mine. I open my eyes when I don't notice him.
He's just gone. I sigh in disappointment, I'd have loved to wake up in his arms and just lay in bed with him. Guess it'll have to wait.
I get up and take my clothes which were on the ground, and put them on, memories of last night flashing in my mind.

Do I regret this?
Not at all. I've finally found the right place to be, near Jeff.

After taking a hot shower to clean myself, I meet Anders downstairs. To my disappointment, Jeff isn't at home at all. I can feel a pain in my chest, but deep down I know I have to let it go. Jeff isn't the kind of man to be always around a woman, or to tell her everything or where he is. I will never chain him.

"Hey girl." Anders greets me, and I smile wildly at him.

"Woah, someone's happy." He adds with joy.

"Well, like every day."

"Hun hun- that's what you say. You seem happier than usual. Is that because of Jeff?"

A deep blush occurs on my face, and I try to hide it. "What- What do you mean?"

"You made things official yesterday, right?"

"Hu?"

"You two, it's official?"

"Oh yeah sorry, I'm...not totally awaken ahah." I caress my head in shame. I was nearly screwed. "Yeah we are! That's why I'm happy." I quickly add. Thanks god he's only talking about our relationship. If he knows...

"I'm so glad. Finally you're together." He says with a kind of nostalgia in his voice. "I thought it would never happen."

"Sorry it took me so long. You were right from the beginning."

"No problem. I'll leave him to you then. Take care of him."

And then, Anders leaves the house to go outside, probably analyzing where Gary can be.

"Thanks, Anders." I say, even thought he can't hear me. I own this man so much.

When I wake up this day, Jeff's by my side. We had taken the habit to sleep together now, but he wasn't here all the time when I woke up. Today, after a week of being together, he is, and I'm so glad. By instinct, I lay my head on his chest and his smell feels my nostrils. It's still dark in the room - meaning it's not completely the day - and Jeff's bare chest rising up and down indicating me that he's sleeping.

Suddenly, when I'm trying to get back to sleep, he hugs me tight, making me surprised. He turns around to face me, and whispers in his rough morning voice.
