Pretty As A Proxy (Creepypasta x OCs)

Chapter 56

- Alisha's POV -

Jeff and I haven't talked since he pushed me into the railing yesterday. I have a bruise forming on my side and it hurts to move.

I rolled over onto my non bruised side and starred at the wall. Sighing, I grabbed my phone off the bed side table and checked the time. 10:38 am, Tuesday, March 10th. I won't make it back in time for Carisma's birthday, I have to get her something.

I pushed myself off the bed and walked down stairs to get a drink.

Down stairs I found nobody, but Jeff in the kitchen drinking some alcohol.

I scowled at the sight and walked past Jeff to get to the fridge. " Alisha? " Jeff gurgled roughly in a drunken daze. I ignored him and grabbed a glass to get my water. " Fuckin' answer me damnit! " Jeff growled. I continued to ignore  him and finished filling my glass with water. I turned, glared at Jeff, and went to leave the kitchen, but Jeff caught my wrist and pulled me towards him, causing me to drop my glass and have it shatter.

Crashing his lips into mine, I smelled the alcohol riding on his breath. I angrily shoved Jeff away and pulled my wrist out of his hand forcefully.

I felt tears threaten to fall and I marched up stairs.

I sat on my bed and cried softly into my knees.

- Carisma's POV -

My birthday is tomorrow and I'll officially be sixteen.

I laid in bed and starred at the ceiling for a few moments before Blaire came in. " Hi Blaire. " I greeted the young demon child.

Blaire climbed up onto my bed and crawled over to me. " Look at what I got. " Blaire said with a smile as she held up a black stuffed bear with short, fluffy ears, and beady red eyes. " Where did you get it? " I asked curiously as I looked over the impressive stuffed toy. " The tall clown. " Blaire said as she cuddled the toy in her arms lovingly. I starred at her questioningly and she grabbed my hand. " I'll show you. " Blaire tugged for me to follow her and I did.

Blaire lead me out the back door and into the center of the field by the large tree. 

" See. " Blaire pointed at Jack, who was sitting on the grass with his legs crossed. " I made the toy for the little one. " Jack spoke as he starred at Blaire.  " Charlotte wouldn't come out to play. " Blaire added. " Blaire said that her mommy just died. " Jack said as he stroked Blaire's hair. " Yeah. " I watched Jack. " So, I assume you've taken her into your care? " Jack said in his thick British accent. I nodded my head in response. 

" Don't worry sweetheart, you got a pretty new mother. " Jack patted Blaire's shoulder. " I'm not her mom though. " I said. " You're protecting and caring for her, so you're her new mother figure. " Jack said as he brought his arm back to his lap. " I'm going to go show Charlotte my new toy! " Blaire said before running back towards the house.

Jack patted the grass next to him and I sat down. " She's a lot calmer then Sally. " Jack laughed. I chuckled and starred at the house in the distance.

As I continued to stare at the house, I felt something be set in my lap and looked down to find a small box. " Someone told me your birthday was tomorrow. " Jack said with smile. " Well, don't dolly. Open it. " Jack said with a gesture. I grabbed the white box and opened it to find another box inside. I picked up this Box and looked it over. It was made of wood and had a rusty crank on one side. On the other side, in red letters, it said " Isaac ". " That's my box. I'm a Jack in the box, get it? " Jack laughed. I smiled, set the box down, and jumped on the clown, engulfing him in a hug. Jack hesitated, but hugged back. Jack let me go and I picked up the special box. " When ever you turn the crank, I'll show up. " Jack said with a sharp toothed smile. I smiled back and Jack took out some hard candies. He handed them to me and I popped one into my mouth. " Well I got to get going love. " Jack stood up. " Until next time. " Jack disappeared into a cloud of black smoke.
