(E's P.O.V)

It's been a few years since that day. The day I woke with Ben in my living room. And finally, my life makes sense.

Ben and I are happily engaged, not married yet. We have one son, his name is Caleb. He's a smart boy, two years old, and looks a lot like Ben. Surprisingly, Jeff and I are best friends. Ever since Ben introduced me to his family Jeff and I have always hung out. We played video games, board games, took walks, went swimming, just about anything you could think of. He was like my big brother.

"Honey, it's time." Said Ben.

Slender is making me immortal, like Ben. I can't wait to spend forever with my love. But, I heard that not just anybody can become immortal, due to the pain.

I simply nodded and Ben walked me into Slender's office. I lay down on the bed and hold Ben's hand. He smiles and kisses my lips before one of Slender's tentacles touch my head and I'm knocked out cold.

It's scary, and dark. The only light source is a crack in the stone walls. I hear a loud creaking noise and a guard comes into my cell. He takes my arm and drags me to the torturing chamber. I look up to see Ben tied to a pole. His shirt is off and his pale white skin is glowing a little in the dark room. I watch as my mother steps out from the shadows while holding a whip. I watch in horror as she brings the whip down on Ben's back and a huge bloody gash is left on his spine. He screams in pain as I begin to thrash in the guard's hold. Again again and again my mother whips BEN until his back is completely bloody. Then she unties him and drags him to a small watering hole in the corner of the room. No...no...NO!

She pushes his head into the water as he struggles in her grip. It seems to happen in slow motion...Ben struggling...mother laughing...then...silence. Ben is no longer struggling. My eyes widen as I realize, he just drowned again. I thrash harder until my mother brings Ben out of the water and tossed him in front of me. I bring him into my lap and sob loudly.

"That's what you get for loving a killer." As I hear these words, my world slowly fades. The last thing I see, is Ben's beautiful porcelain face, wet with water and my tears.

I didn't make it. I died.
