Jeff's P.O.V:

I sit and wait patiently for you to awake from your nightmare each and every night from the moment I found out. For some reason I didn't leave because I was bored, it was because of something else. I haven't felt this emotion in so long since the day my brother was put in a juvenile detention center because of my actions. You re-sparked that emotion, and it continued to grow. Never in a million years, I would ever think that you would be the one to break that shell. Yet, here we are. Sitting and waiting patiently like I did every night only this nightmare you were trapped in. I let my guard down for a second and now your life is at risk because of me. All I could do was hold your hand. It made me feel weak and helpless for the first time in years. But I will never leave your side, never let you fall, never let you break, and most importantly never let you die! Because I care about you more than anything in this world! I noticed the purple veins started to dissolve on your arms and neck. I turn my head in complete suspense with my eyes even wider than before hoping, praying you survived the ordeal and kicked that bitches ass.

"(y/n)?" I muttered as you moaned trying to awake from your sleep. I hold my breath in anticipation as I could my heartbeat rapidly almost completely blocking your sounds. You lift yourself up still with closed eyes as you take your free hand to rub your head.

"Jeff?" you call out in your sweet voice. My eyes began to fill up with tears as I couldn't control the flow of them.

"Oh thank god" I muttered as I was about to reach over and hug you, Ben noticed something was wrong.

"Jeff! Don't touch her!" Ben yelled out I awakened from my daze and saw your eyes open however they weren't your eyes.

"You fool" a familiar voice spoke, Ben rushed in, grabbed me from the back of my collar and placed me away from her. When I got a better look, I noticed it wasn't you. Your eye's turned into pools of black with purple pupils and your energy seemed different. It was Mindfreak.

"You are such easy prey when it comes to this weak, little, human" Mindfreak chuckled. I clenched my fists, my body began to tremble in both anger and a little fear. I reached for my blade in my hoodie pocket without thinking, I rush towards her holding the blade up ready to stab her.

"Jeff! Don't do it!" Ben called out. Then her hand lift up and stopped me in my tracks, I was completely frozen.

"You should listen to your friend Jeff. If you damage this body, then your harming your precious little human girl" Mindfreak grinned from ear to ear.

"W-what?!" I managed to speak in my frozen state.

"Well I would love to talk but I gotta head out to see my love. I bet he will be glad to see me again" Mindfreak began to float out of the house as nothing had ever happened. Ben stayed behind to help free me from her trap. Once he did I boltted out of door hoping to find her but she was gone, you were gone. I arched my back lifting my head and began to yell at the top of my lungs. Feeling this pain again was the most absolute worse thing I could ever experience, especially when it involved you. I failed to protect you, now your life was at the mercy of this bitch.

"Jeff..." Ben approached me but as soon as he got close to me, I quickly turn and grabbed him by his shoulders.

"We need to get her back! You got some kind of spell that help us?! DO YA?!" I yelled firmly at him. He was shocked by my sudden outburst, it took a good minute for him to respond.

"I-I-I don't..." Ben muttered as my grip on his shoulders began to tighten.

"You sure?" I asked him coldly. Ben simply nodded as I slowly removed my hands from his shoulders. Once he was free he started to back away and I fell to the ground to my knees. I could feel the tears dripping down my cheeks looking like raindrops on the cement. Why you? How on earth did a normal looking human girl like you get to me? A cold-hearted, nasty, bloodlust, insane, evil killer. But you did it, you allowed me to stay and made my heart warm again. I may look like I didn't give a damn but in reality, I cared. I cared about your well-being. I wanted to see you smile and hear you laugh more. I wanted to be the one that calmed you down when you had those nightmares. Tho my appearance would have been a barrier, you didn't see it as a problem. You didn't care what I looked like, instead, you paid attention to the person inside me. Far deeper than my killer desires. You saw a part of me that I didn't even understand until now. From there, my goal was to protect you. So I could unlock more secrets, emotions, and desires that I didn't even know were inside me. Because of you, I finally started to realize more to me then what I thought. For that, I love you.
