The whole day after I let Ben stay with me was hectic. So far he has brought home numerous amounts of dead bodies, thrown his clothes all over the floor, caused my house to smell like weed and even scratched my sofa! (Don’t ask how it’s a really long story.) Anyway, it’s worse than having a dog! I walked downstairs then remembered; I was supposed to go shopping yesterday when a certain killer tried to kill me.
“BEN!!!” I shouted from the bottom of the stairs, only to see him poke his head out from my bedroom door “yessss?”
“I’m going shopping.” I shouted and grabbed my bag and coat, and began to walk out the door when Ben ran at full speed towards me and pleaded for him to join me.
“…you want to join me like that?” I didn’t mean to sound offensive but even if I did, would he care anyway? He’s a killer, so what does it matter?
“…what do you mean?” are you kidding me? He really thinks he looks normal? I slowly pointed to my eyes and my outfit he looked at me blankly before finally catching on to what I was implying. “..Oooooohhhhh… don’t worry watch this!” he turned around and ran upstairs.
“What- what are you doing?! Where are you going?!” I got no response. About five minutes later I heard someone come down the stairs. I didn’t recognise them at first but when I noticed who it was, my eyes widened dramatically. It was Ben, wearing brown jeans and a green t-shirt, and his eyes weren’t his normal black abyss with red pupils, they were bright blue and very soft. I just stared at him until he looked at me weirdly. “Uh…Brittany?”
“…yes?” I said in my dreamy voice that I only do when I’m too busy in my own world to even understand what’s going on.
“…what are you doing?” that’s when I snapped out of it, trying to quickly straighten myself up and act like nothing happened. “Uh... Nothing, let’s go!” I quickly rushed him out of the door.
We quickly drove to the supermarket and grabbed what we needed. Only Ben kept asking for the weirdest stuff and trying to sneak things into the shopping trolley but I snuck them back onto the shelves. He constantly offered to ride in the trolley until I finally gave in and let them, and we became the laughingstock of the whole supermarket.
We finally started driving home before we heard a huge thud on the top of my car.
“…what was that?” I almost screamed at the thud and Ben just grinned. “What are you grinning at?”
“Oh nothing~” suddenly the person jumped on the front of the car; making me scream and Ben just chuckled and waved at the man. Then I noticed who it was.
“Hey Jeff!” I heard Ben say, and Jeff waved back. I narrowed my eyes at Jeff and shouted “GET OFF MY CAR!”
“Make me!” he shouted back, so I just smirked and started up my car, knocking him straight off and ignoring that he was laid lifeless on the road.
We arrived at home but I walked into the house a little later than him as I spaced out a little whilst walking up my driveway. I walked into the house to see Ben was nowhere to be seen. “…ben? Where are you?” wait, why am I asking him where he is? Shouldn’t I be glad that he’s gone? That’s when I heard something in my TV. I looked over, to see it was flashing all different colours. “What the…” suddenly Ben jumped out and grabbed my arm, pulling me into the TV.
I looked around to find myself in another room. It was much darker and eerier than my room. “Ben?”
“Yeah?”
“Where are we?”
He smirked, grabbing my hand and running down the stairs “you’ll see!” we appeared in a big room with a load of other people in. I recognised one or two from stories I’ve read but one made me angry. I know of this place, I’ve heard of it on the internet! It’s called ‘Slendy’s mansion’ I believe. Jeff snapped his head towards me and growled, running towards me.
I squeaked and watched him with wide eyes before Ben grabbed my arm to pull me out the way, then Jeff grabbed my other arm and before I knew it, I was practically being ripped apart by the two.
“G-guys…!” I whispered my shoulders about to pop any second. They didn’t listen so I repeated myself, a little louder, and louder again, until I screamed “GUYS!!”
They looked at me in shock and dropped my arms. “Jeff, if you wish to kill me… do it, only if you truly do though.
“Brittany!” Ben shouted, shock still in his eyes, but I looked at him confused. “…what?”
“Please don’t let him kill you…” my heart pretty much melted at his voice. It was soft, like a child begging his mother for a longer bedtime. I smiled softly without realising and nodded slowly. “okay.” I looked back at Jeff. “Back off, you can either join me, or never speak to me again. I suggest you join me; I don’t want Ben being my only friend here as I can’t depend on him 24/7”
Jeff just looked at his feet and muttered “…fine I’ll join you and help. But that doesn’t mean I’m your friend! …just friend of a friend.”
I grinned widely “great!” Jeff smirked before pointing out “we should probably go speak to Slendy now…”
“Yeah, you ready Brit?” Ben asked and I blushed at the name. I hated it but he made it sound cool. I guess I could get used to this place. I nodded and Ben took my hand, leading me.
