Rarity's P.O.V~

  Ben and I have been very secretive about our relationship. Especially around Jeff. He would hold my hand from under the table or kiss me out in the woods do that we wouldn't rise suspicion. Jeff got all worked up about me kissing Ben that one time and we had to swear that nothing was going on between us...at the time. The rest of the guys don't seem to notice, it's Sally we need to watch out for. When I pass by her in the hallway, she would always give me this 'look' like I was up to something. She even gave us a 'ship name'; Ren. She calls us Ren. Like this could POSSIBLY get any worse!

  I stumble down the long corridor and into the living room to see nobody. Must be hunting... I thought to myself. Slender won't let me go hunting until I'm fully in control of my blood lust. The last time I went hunting, I practically burned the house down. It took E.J, Masky, and Ben to hold me back.

  I heard a thud coming upstairs. I crept slowly up the steps and down the long hallway only to be pounced on. I was knocked to the ground at full force. Someone covered my eyes so I couldn't see who it was which made me panic. A cold blade glided across my cheek and warm blood trickled down the side of my face. A strangled cry escaped my lips until another pair of lips met mine. I struggled against my attacker. I scratched, punched, kicked and clawed, but the person wouldn't let up. His mouth tasted of alcohol and cigarettes. He pulled away for air and purred on my ear, "I've been wanting to do that for so long." the voice was slurred, "Maybe a bit too long..." He uncovered my eyes. A pale-faced man was staring at me seductively, his forever-smile even wider. Jeff. I crawled backward a little and slowly stood up without breaking eye-contact. He watched intently as I backed away, careful not to lose my footing.

How will I tell this to Ben?! I know I can't keep this from him.

Still in shock, I went straight to me and Ben's room and locked the door, leaving Jeff still standing there in satisfaction by what he just did. I sank onto the bed and clutched a pillow. Waiting. Thinking. I mean, I knew Jeff had a crush on me, but I didn't expect him to be this bold about it. I felt so used. I'm not saying the kiss was bad, but it just didn't feel right. I was so mad at myself for not seeing it coming, but I applaud him for being upfront about it. He is one brave little shit.

The front door swung open and I sprang up from the bed. I needed to get up. I was going crazy staying inside the place. The fist thing I did when I saw Ben was hug him. I held on to him for what felt like decades and he hugged back. "Rarity,"he whispered in my ear, "the guys are watching."

"I missed you so much, Benny." I sighed and I pulled away. Hoodie let out a long "awe" and E.J slow-clapped out of the living room.Masky gave Ben a nod of approval and they brofisted. Slendy tilted his head slightly and awkwardly congratulated us. I laughed at him hysterically until no sound was coming from my mouth, and Ben chimed in. Slendy shrugged and went off to where the others were, leaving Ben and I alone. He cupped my face and kissed me slowly, but just enough to make my mind go blank. Sally leaned against the door frame, making us part out of habit from being secretive for too long. "Sally, how long have you been standing there?!" Ben asked solidly.

"Long enough." She was about to walk away when she added, "Big kids are so gross..." I snickered at her remark. "Well, I guess we should tell Jeff now." Ben affirmed, "Wouldn't want to deal with it later." His words rang in my ears and made me nauseated. I took his hands in mine and reluctantly nodded. I was praying he didn't see the pain in my eyes.

  We knocked on his bedroom door. Knife markings were engraved in the wood, and its white paint was chipping. The door swung open to a drunken Jeff. Beer bottles scattered the floor and he was lighting a cigarette. "Y...yes?" He grumbled, blowing smoke into our faces. Ben said something almost inaudible and Jeff raised an eyebrow. "You actually did it..." Jeff whispered.

"W-What?" Ben asked.

"You finally managed to ruin something else for me."

"And what would that be?"

"My chances...with Rarity."

"Chances?"Ben scoffed, "You never had any chances!" I elbowed Ben hard in the shoulder.

"What?" He said innocently, "It's true!"

"Ben, enough." I said sharply, but it was too late. Him and Jeff werep going at it. I tried breaking them up, but they pushed me to the ground. "Stay out of this." They flamed in sync. They continued bickering and Jeff grabbed Ben by the collar. Ben kicked his crotch and kneed him in the stomach. Jeff took one of his empty bottles and flung it across the hall, nearly hitting my head. "SLENDY!" I shouted. Slender teleported next to me, grabbing Jeff and Ben by the foot. They hung upside-down on either side of Slendy, glaring at eachother. "What in the bloody hell is going on here?" Jeff crossed him arms, "This, asswipe over here stole my girl!"

"Your girl?!" Ben's eyes began to flow with tears of anger.

"Yes, my girl, Ben. MINE. Why is it that I always lose everything to you? My killing status, my friends, my VICTIMS? And you had to just take her away from me to! I even kissed her!"

"Y-You...WHAT?!" Ben yelled in pure hatred. He struggled against Slendy's grip, but of course he couldn't get free. "What the FUCKING HELL? You stupid, self-centered, son of a bitch! I will cut you up so bad!" Ben scorned, "You touch her again, it will be you who goes the hell to sleep. Do I make myself clear?!"

Jeff sneered under his breath, "No."

"Did I fucking stutter?" Ben retorted.

"Like a drunk with Tourette Syndrome and a speech impediment."

"Look who decided to open their over-sized mouth! The alcoholic!"

"SHUT UP!" I bellowed, "I can't even believe you guys! Holy fuck, this is ridiculous! I'm going out. Don't even bother looking for me."

"Ms.Dalton." Slender touched my shoulder.

"I'll be back in an hour." I remarked, but that was a white lie.

********************

I scavenged through the woods until I came upon a little broken down shed. It caught my interest and decided to check it out. The walls were metal and rusted, the ceiling, falling apart. I heard whimpering in the distance, and I froze. It sounded like a dog. I crept to where I heard the noise, and there sat a husky. It was no ordinary husky though...it was...smiling. It also had red fur. I steadily approached the animal, careful not to make any sudden movements to frighten it, or potentially kill me.

His front paw was wounded and his back had a massive scratch. I rummaged through some junk in the shed and found a blanket. I walked over and scooped him up and he growled and me, showing his gnarly teeth. I flinched and put all my effort into not being afraid. I heard once that dogs could sense fear in a human. Well, I wasn't exactly human, but I was still a target to say the least.

"Nice, doggie...nice doggie." I trembled and bit my lip. I exited the shed, still carrying the whimpering husky and went to go find a victim. We got in the house and I gently layed the dog on the couch. "Wait here. I'll be right back to help you." I reassured him, I didn't care if he didn't understand.

I killed my play toys quickly and made sure the house was clear before searching the bathroom. I got out tons of medical supplies and went back to the dog. I cleansed the wound by dousing it with alcohol. The dog snarled, but I shushed him and pet his head. I wrapped the paw with bandages and moved on to the scratch on his back. I dripped alcohol on that too, but this time the dog bit my hand. Pain surged through my finger tips as vital fluid rushed down my wrist. I continued helping the animal, despite the pain. This reminded me of the first time I met Ben. Not a very romantic greeting, but good enough for me. I let him settle down and rest for a little while. I didn't know when he would warm up to me, but I was certainly not taking him back to the insane asylum I now call "home". Things were just too complicated. I layed down on the cushion next to the beaming dog. I examined his collar, cautious not to disturb him. "Smile." I said under my breath. What a fitting name. I laughed at my joke. How sad am I? Then, I gazed out the window watching the sky fade into a lavender color wondering when I would go back home.~
