I had never appreciated Jeff more after he told me his story,it seemed fake at first.
It didnt seem to pain him though,he looked calm as he explained his past,I wonder if Jack will be like that,though Jack is more dramatic.I unfolded my hands from my lap and placed them into the dashboard,looking ahead into the fog that surrounded us,it gave me a eerie feeling not knowing what could be inside of it.
So I leaned back and drived my attention towards Jeff again,he got oddly quiet after I had asked him if he had a future before it happened,the same question Jack had asked me.
He didn't answer me,afraid I bugged him I stayed quiet also.
But one more question lingered on my mind,and I couldn't push it away..so I asked it,taking the risk of possibly being yelled at.
"What did you do to Keith?.." I asked,he raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Who's Keith?.." he asked,with a little monotone in his voice.
"The guy who was banging on my door,when I woke up he was gone.." I said,I was getting anxious again.
"Oh,well..Before I left to find you,Jack told me and I quote 'If anyone comes in your way from getting Y/n,or disturbs her comfort,no matter who it is,eliminate them immediately.' He even made me promise,a man's word is alot you know."
He said,his hands gripped the steering wheel a little tighter."He was drunk,we drank too much and he wouldn't leave me alone." I stated,feeling sad for the man,he didn't intentionally make me feel uncomfortable,he didn't know what he was doing..
"I promised,I'm sorry,I would've knocked him out if I had a say." Jeff stated right after,it sounded comforting to hear.
"Yeah,sure." I said back,my hands met each other again and I couldn't help but pick at my small fingernails.
"Shit,we're low on gas,there should be a gas station somewhere around here." Jeff mumbled,turning the car and going down a stray path filled with nothing but more trees.
"Considering we've been driving for about an half an hour,there should be a gas station about 5 or 6 miles from down this path." I pointed to the path we were going down.
"Yeah I saw that one,it looks so suspicious not gonna lie,especially the guy inside." He joked.
"Frank.." I said,I knew his name because he's worked there for awhile,Connie knows him.
"You're weird,is that why Jack likes you?" He said,looking at me.
"Probably,I honestly have no idea why he likes me.." I admitted,I snickered a bit afterwards and Jeff started laughing.
"You just laughed haha!" Jeff said,I actually couldn't stop chuckling myself,it felt weird but good to let it out.
"Why did you laugh?" I asked,he shrugged and let out one more laugh before letting out a long sigh.
"Man,this fog is weird,it came out of nowhere." He muttered,I agreed,it did rain but after it stopped it seemed to wonder in pretty quick.
"Reminds me of Lulu.." Jeff also muttered,that name caught my attention sense I've never heard of it.
"Lulu?..who's that?" I asked,he shook his head and said.
"No one,just an old friend..." his voice seemed to fade off.
An old friend?..is Lulu a killer too? How many are there?
"You should take a nap,it's still gonna be a few more hours until we've reached my place." He stated,I nodded and brought my knees up to my chest and leaned my head against the cold window,I pressed a glowing red button near the volume button and soft music started to play through the speakers.
I shut my eyes and focused on the music,it made me feel like I was back at home with Jack,weird that I call his house home now..
Before I knew it I'd fallen into the sleeping state once more,Jeff had made sure to keep an good eye on you to make sure you weren't sick or feeling down,Jack told him about her depression and he understood,worst case scenario she tries to kill herself before Jack can find her.
Jeff shook away the thought of that happening,not wanting to see the devastation on his close friend Jack's face,Jeff believed he wouldn't be able to handle it.
At some point lights appeared in the distance after driving for some time,he glanced at his fuel storage,seeing how low it was made him nervous.
As soon as he parked the care in front of the gas tank,he placed a mask over his carved smile and stepped out of the car,shoving the pump into the car and waiting for it to fill up completely.Once he got into the car,he saw you shift a bit,worrying you were hurting somewhere he leaned in closer,but he figured out what the problem was after hearing your stomach growl loudly.
He sighed in relief as he sat back,as he was about to shut the door he stopped,grabbing money out of the pocket of his jeans,he got out of the car and walked into the small liquor store.
The bell above the door rang as Jeff opened the door,the scent of cigarettes and alchohol filled his nose,but being used to the smell hadn't made him cringe.
Not really knowing what you like,he grabbed what he assumed you'd like instead of waking you up and asking.Grabbing two bottles of water and some candies and chips,he paid and walked back to his car,placing the small plastic bag on the seat behind him.He started up the car and proceeded with the drive,knowing you'd not wake up until a few more hours,he didn't exactly enjoy the silence but he could deal with it.
He would occasionally look at you,to make sure you were actually breathing,but anytime he'd look back at the road the itchy feeling of paranoia brushed against his mind and his fears.He never knew he could be so afraid to lose a girl,especially a human. It wasn't even the fact of Jack releasing hell on him that scared him,it was the feeling of losing of her,he didn't exactly connect with her yet but he planned on doing it,he had to protect her and he was gonna do everything he could to get you to Jack.
Even if it costed him his life..
