The next morning Sally and SM woke up early and went into the kitchen. No one was there except the guy SM punched in the mouth yesterday. Sally who is that? "That's BEN." The boy looked up at his name. SM face palmed. " Why so you want to know?" I was just curious. "Great we have another Slender." Actually, Slender gave this ability to me. BEN just rolled his eyes. "There's food in the kitchen." He stopped after he said it, feeling awkward. SM just shrugged. Sally went into the kitchen and came back with eggs and bacon. SM sat down beside her and BEN. SM took this time to actually look at BEN. He doesn't look that bad. He's like a little elf. Sally quickly finished. She put her plate in the sink. "Let's go outside." Okay lets go. "Bring Smile Dog,"
BEN said after a bit. "Of course, guess what BEN?" "What?" "Stitch Mouth can talk to animals." BEN just sat there for awhile. He slowly nodded his head, "cool."  They went outside and rode Smile Dog to a clearing. They laid down in the grass and were chatting. "So SM, how did Jack find you?" SM went back to that night and was quiet for awhile. "Sorry if you don't want to talk, you don't have to," Sally said looking down at the ground. It's ok Sally. Jack found me in an old treehouse after I had killed my family. "Why?" They always forgot about me and I got tired of it, so I killed them one night then I stitched my mouth and theirs. Can you keep a secret? "Of course what you tell me will be between us only." I can't talk. My parents never taught me how to. SM had tears falling down her face. Sally wiped them away. "I can teach you." But them what would my name be? "What is your actual name?" I....I can't remember. "It's ok." Ok, you can teach me tonight. They smiled and headed back to the mansion.  They walked in and BEN was still at the table. "Hey SM, can I talk to you?" Sally wiggled her eyebrows and walked away. SM walked over to him and sat down. What do you want? "Want to hang out sometime?"  SM was taken aback, but nodded. "Okay how about Saturday night?" SM nodded and went to her room.
