And So It Begins {NO LONGER A THING}

7.

Hey sorry for the lack of updates! I made this one extra long for you though! I'm working on the next chapter now! I hope you guys arent mad (=• •)

~~the next day~~~~

I wake up upside down on the couch. What happened last night? Jeff is hanging on the chandelier above me and EJ is in the recliner, twisted in ways I didn't know was possible.

"Mornin Laughing Jack..." Slender says walking into the living room.

"Morning..." I reply tiredly, "what happened last night?"

"Things got.... out of hand.... last night"

Jeff wakes up, "Did I make out with anyone!?!" He falls off the chandelier, landing on his face.

"No you didn't, Jeff... but you did think you were Sia an tried to swing on the chandelier.... you passed out up there..."

I snicker and help Jeff off the ground, "Slender.... do you think I could go out later today??"

"What for? Are you going with someone?"

"Well, not exactly... I wanted to go alone... explore..."

"Well, we have a policy... never go alone..."

"Why?"

"For... reasons... how about Jeff tags along with you..."

"WAIT!!" a voice from behind me interrupts, I turn around to see that it's Trenderman, "I have successfully made you a new outfit!"

In his hands he is holding a black and white suit, it has brown suspenders, striped sleeves, grayish black pants with a faded brown patch, and the shoulders had fluffy black and white false feathers. It looks a lot like the one I'm wearing, except mine is gross looking from the faded colors. "Wow, thanks Trender... it looks great!"

"Go ahead! Try it on!" He shoves the outfit in my hands and pushes me towards the hallway to my room. I enter my room and start undressing from my faded clothing. It feels uncomfortable at first, new, but I get used to it quickly. I twist around making sure it fits snugly and I stretch a bit. It fits perfectly. The sleeves are even long enough to cover my arms! I go back out into the living room.

"Thanks Trender! Really it's great!" I say when I get out, "How does it look?"

"You look absolutely fabulous!!" He replies happily.

"Yeah... a real slayer..." Jeff says, "Were you gonna go out or not?"

"y-yeah... are you okay??" I ask Jeff a little concerned, "Are you feeling well?"

"Yeah, fine..." he replies, he sounds annoyed.

"sorry... if you don't want to now I'm sure I can make it on my own..."

"No I want to go... it's just I don't know why Slender hasn't told you... it's stupid... anyway let's go..."

"Told me what?"

"Nothing... lets go" he stumbles to the door, almost falling (he probably has a headache).

I follow not asking any questions. What's the point if they aren't gonna tell you anyway. Outside is bright, brighter than I expected. Jeff walks through a few trees, then suddenly is pulled up into the sky. I don't even know how to react.

"DON'T JUST STAND THERE, LJ!!!! DO SOMETHING! THEY'RE GONNA GET ME!" Jeff yells from a net hanging from a tree branch. He looks so helpless. I contemplate my options, help him and be a good person like i once was, or laugh my ass off at how helpless he is and possibly lose my only friend once again.
