-just black sockets- [ eyeless jack x reader ]

Pt. 4

Sept. 1 2019
We headed for the house, Hoodie and I walked a bit in front of Masky, Toby and EJ. I felt those lifeless sockets glued on me. I don't think if this is just because I stabbed him in the hand, or what. We went inside, BEN went up to greet me but saw that I didn't look too thrilled. Hoodie let BEN pull me aside for a second.
"What happened out there? Nevermind, it's probably best to not think about it. I want you to sit at the table with me, okay?" He said, I nodded. BEN really doesn't seem like the person to hurt me, him and Hoodie I trust most.
We sat at the table, I was between BEN and Jeff. You could hear arguing from the kitchen. "Splendor I told you not to get in the way, you're burning everything." Am unfamiliar voice said. "You know what, just put the stupid fire out I'm ordering pizza." A voice who I think was Slenders.
Three people came out of the kitchen, Slenderman, and two others. "We have a new one, [name] these are two of my brothers. Splendorman and Trendorman." One of them looked very smiley, actually had eyes and a mouth, but it looked kinda painted on. He strolled up to me and shook a bunch of candy out of his sleeve onto my plate. "HELLO YOU~" He happily hugged me, kind of choking me.
Trendor came along and moved Splendor and tugged at my jacket. "Oh now this isn't fitted at all, let me take this I can fix it." He said, trying to pull my jacket off. "What the hell?!" I said trying to keep my jacket on. "Both of you, this is her first night. She's had enough for one day, get to your seats." Slenderman stated. Both of them sitting at seats next to Slender.
I adjusted my jacket when the door bell rang, Slender went to go answer it but it ended in someone screaming. He came back wiping a little blood off his cheek. Putting the pizza boxes on the table and putting them on plates for people. I had candy on my plate as well, I don't know if I should trust this candy, it sounds like a laughing jack situation.
BEN grabbed some of the candy and shoved it in his hoodie. "[name], you wanna watch me eat this pizza without hands?" BEN said, I laughed and nodded. I watched him try to suck pizza down his throat until a dog with a big hideous smile ripped it out of his mouth and ran off. "HEY, GET BACK HERE WITH MY PIZZA YOU MUTT." BEN yelled at the dog but it smiled and ran off. "JEFF WHY IS YOUR DOG SUCH AN ASS!?"
Jeff laughed while eating his pizza with a dried blood covered knife. "You're the idiot who tried to inhale a pizza, eheheh." He snarked. I just normally ate my pizza and candy, for being kidnapped and nearly killed. These people aren't that bad, this really hasn't been the worst I could think of. But there it was again, I felt that stare. I looked a few seats down, across the table. His head leaning on his hand, just staring at me and taping his fingers on the table.
Hoodie put his hand in front of his face and snapped, said something to him I couldn't hear and EJ put his head back down. I turned to BEN. "Does he hate me? What's his fucking deal?" I sighed. "Hm? Oh, EJ? God no, quiet the opposite actually. He really doesn't hate you." He replied, while playing with a 3DS. "What do you mean by that?" I said back. He scratched his head and looked around, then back to me. "He's just....not very good with his emotions. But that's all I can tell you." He kept his head down to his 3DS.
I didn't reply, I ate the rest of my pizza and tried to think. What does that mean, what does he mean by 'but that's all I can tell you'. Is he not telling me something, is there something I should know? People started getting up and going about there night, going out or going to bed. As I was getting up to put my plate in the sink, Slenderman stopped me. "We wont be doing it tonight, you've had enough tonight. But I don't just let anyone stay here, there is some sort of deed or job you'll do for me, or prove to me. I won't push it, so don't stress." He said, I nodded but before I could continue leaving he stopped me again.
"Don't worry about EJ, I told him to apologize. Goodnight, [name]." He pat me on the head and went out of the room. I put the dish in the sink and went to my room. EJ wasn't in there yet, I grabbed my clothes and folded them out on my bed. I picked some clothes, my shower stuff and went to the bathroom to shower.
I showered, grabbed a towel and put it on, then stepped out. I took out a hairdryer and dried my hair, the steam in the mirror cleared up a little and I saw him. EJ was right behind me. I turned around and he was gone. I thought I was just going crazy and that my day had been so stressful that I was seeing things. I splashed cold water on my face and put my clothes on.
Heading back to my room, I didn't see EJ in the halls. I must've been seeing things. I opened the door and he laid in his bed, seemingly asleep, but then again he has no eyes, how would I know if he was sleeping? God, why do I have to share a room with someone who tried to kill me.
"I put your clothes in the top drawer of the dresser." He uttered. I looked surprised, and sat on my bed, putting some of m stuff on the desk next to the bed, keeping it on my side. "Thank y-" I went to thank him but he interrupted me. "I'm sorry...That I tried to stab you and take your kidneys and all." He said, noticeably shy and awkward. He turned in his bed and faced the wall. I looked confused but turned and smiled.
"Thank you, EJ."
