Jeff

I brought Tess over to my laptop and loaded up creepypasta.com. She sat in the desk chair while I stood over her waiting for the page to load. She looked up at me and smiled. Something I was glad to see considering the shit that just happened to us. I smiled back and pecked her lips. She giggled. The page finally loaded and I broke out of the spell my beautiful angel always casts on me whenever I look at her. I scrolled down to the first story about me(my story)and left the room. I thought it would be best if she read it alone so the knowledge can sink in. I just hope she didn't hate me after she read it.

Tess

I re-read the story over and over again. Each time I was shocked. I mean, I knew Jeff was a vicious murderer, but his own family? I could never ever think about hurting my family, let alone mauling them to death. But, really, It wasn't his fault. It was that stupid asshole Randy's fault for making those urges come to him in the first place. My poor Jeff, I can't imagine the regret and pain he must feel. I just wish there was something I could do for him.

I was pacing outside my room, waiting for her to tell me to come back in. Dammit! What if this was a mistake? What if she stopped loving me after this? She knows that I'm a murderer, but the way she must've reacted when she found out what I did to my own family, the people I loved and cherished. She knew how much I had loved them, what if she starts thinking that my love has an end? What if she wants to break up with me? What if-My thoughts were interrupted by the door opening. Tess stepped out. Her smile seemed to have faded, her eyes were looking at the floor. We stood in silence for a moment or two, until she wrapped her arms around my neck. I wrapped my arms around her waist and cried into her shoulder. She stroked my hair and rubbed my back. It felt like the time I was six and fell off my bike. My mom had come to comfort me and did the exact same thing. We broke apart and Tess wiped away my tears, held my face in her hands and kissed me. How she can love a monster like me, I'll never know, but that wasn't important. What's important is that I have her now, and I know she'll never leave me. We pulled apart and smiled awkwardly at each other. I examined her. She looked...different. I mean, she still had all her creepypasta features, but it felt like I was looking beyond her appearance and into something much deeper. Her skin had lost it's golden glow and was more...gray. She was skinnier, MUCH skinnier. Her skin clung to her bones and her clothes were WAY too big. Her hair was flat and colorless. But I have to say, her face scared me the most. She was frowning and her eyes were a deep black color and brimmed with tears. The skin on her face clung so tightly to her skull that I could make it out easily. I started hearing some sort of voices. I turned my attention away from Tess. There were these clouds around us that were filled with what seemed to be memories and nightmares. There was one that seemed so...suspicious, so interesting that I had to get a closer look. I walked to the cloud. It was her and some boy in a stairwell. He was all over her. Touching her, kissing her. It made me so furious. I swatted at the cloud, but it returned. I walked back over to Tess. "Where are we?" I asked. Her lips quivered as she began to answer. "This is my dark side," she said, "Where all the bad things go. I thought that since you showed me your dark side, that I should show you mine." I was scared. She was scaring me. What I was seeing was scaring me. Everything about this moment was scaring me. "Tess, is this what you think about all day?" She slowly nodded. I lifted her bandaged arm. The bandages were all bloody. I looked back to her face. This must be how she pictures herself, I thought. My poor angel. In that moment, I understood everything. I knew why she was so depressed and secretive all the time, why she would stoop so low as to cut up her arm, why I heard her crying every night while she was asleep. She feels as if no one cares about her. She feels...alone. I grabbed her face and kissed her passionately, as if to say, "I care," and "I'm here." The awful things soon went away and we were back in the mansion. I pulled away and looked at my precious dove. I rolled up the sleeve of my hoodie and showed her my arm. It was brutally mutilated. Go tO SleEP was carved in to it. Along with LIeS, No fEAr, and mONstEr. Tess gently traced my scars with her finger. She then looked at my face. Tears streamed down her face. I knew what she wanted to do, and how hard she was fighting it. I pulled her into a ginormous hug. She sobbed silently into my shoulder. we stood there for a moment or two before she broke away and pulled me into my room.

She sniffled and wiped her tears away with the back of her hand. "I-I realize this isn't the best t-t-time for this," she stuttered, "But, I think it w-will help me cheer up." She laid down on the bed and pulled me on top of her. We kissed passionately at first, but it got rougher as we went along. I loved Tess, I really did. I'm glad I have her with me. She pulled off my hoodie and t-shirt. I could feel her hot tears against my face. She was an amazing girl, I hated to know she was upset and not be able to do anything about it. We continued and I pushed my thoughts away. All I thought about was her...and how her dark side made me love her even more.
