Wake up (a jeff the killer love story)

chapter 18

(Jeff's POV)

As averie and I walked through the woods, I felt eyes on us. Not wanting to alarm averie I kept it to myself, besides, we weren't being attacked anyways. Once we were a short walking distance from the well, I heard rustling behind us. And averie heard it too. Before I could react, I was attacked by a blur of black and white.

"Jeff!" averie screamed.

"Heyo, Jeffy! Long time, no see! Ol' buddy ol' pal!" The person that was mounted on my chest screamed happily.

I groaned, recognizing the voice of my attacker immediately.

"Laughing Jack," I said rubbing my forehead in frustration, "would you mind getting off of me?" I asked half-pushing, half-commanding him off of me.

Laughing Jack happily obliged and climbed off, helping me up.

"To what do I owe this, pleasure?" I asked making my way over to averie, who stood completely still, shell-shocked.

"I dunno? Just wanted to visit y'know?" Laughing Jack said making his way over to averie. "And who might this be?" He said running a long, black and white striped finger down averie's jaw.

"This," I said pushing him away from averie "is averie. She's new." I said hoping to contain all of my jealousy.

"Ooh, averie. What a beautiful name." Laughing Jack said as he extended his arm, willing averie to shake his hand.

averie didn't even hesitate. She reached out and took her hand in his. At this, my chest became heavy and my heart wrenched around in my chest.

No, it's okay. Nothing's happening. They're just shaking hands. I reminded myself as I huffed a breath out.

"Jeff? You okay? You're a little...red..." averie said releasing L.J.'s hand, causing me to sigh in relief.

"I'm fine," I shot back a little too coldly, "will you be following us? You know, to the house?" I asked L.J., hoping that his response would be a no.

"Yes, I was just on my way when I saw you two." L.J. said a little too cheerfully.

"Great! Maybe we could get to know each other better." averie said happily.

I huffed in anger.

"Oh ho ho. Is someone jealous?" L.J. said smiling mischievously at me, his pointed teeth revealed in his toothy grin.

"No." I replied curtly.

With that, I spun on my heel, leaving averie and L.J, behind. Despite averie's protests, I kept walking. Which was probably a bad idea since averie is really fast. Within a few minutes, averie caught up with me. She pulled on my arm and forced me to look at her.

"What's your problem?!" She shrieked angrily.

"He's my problem." I said gesturing angrily at L.J. who was pretending to ignore our conversation.

"He didn't even do anything!" averie shot back.

I swallowed hard and turned away from averie.

"Whatever, I'm leaving. You can take your time and talk to your new friend, if you want." I said shooting a poisonous glare at both her and L.J. before jumping down the well.

(averie's POV)

"What's his problem?" I shrieked kicking up a rock in frustration.

L.J. shrugged and made his way over to me, wrapping a long arm around my shoulders.

"Maybe he's jealous?" He suggested, causing me to huff in denial.

"Of ? I just wanted to get to know you. No one said we would make-out and have kids together." I said, blushing at my own comment.
