It was Sunday morning. I rolled out of bed and went to the bathroom. It was around 11 am. I walked out the bathroom to see my mom rushing down the stairs. "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"I'm going on a date with that doctor. I'll be back home in a few hours, don't worry. I won't be gone for long."

"Ok ma. See you later." Gosh she must really like this guy. I wonder what he's like. He better not be a player. I walk into my room. "Oh my gosh I forgot to finish all the packets yesterday!". I still have to do reading and history then I'm done for the rest of this school break.

I pulled out the reading packet. All I have to do is summarize what the Declaration of Independence was about. "King George the third was a tyrant king who treated America poorly.....". It took me a while to finish that packet. Now onto the last one finally. I pulled out my history packet and began reading the information. It said "Hello, students when you return back to school we will have our midterms. This packet contains all the lessons that we went over so far. Study the packet as a study guide for your quiz. Have a good break." I turned the page to see that lesson 1 was about the Egyptians. "Yes!". I was happy. Maybe this lesson can tell me about that necklace that Ej first wore when I met him. I scanned down the page. In bold there was a title that said "The Eye of Providence".

"The Eye of Providence is a symbol that depicts an eye. Often enclosed by a triangle and surrounded by rays of light, or glory, meant to represent the concept of divine providence, where by the eye of God watches over humanity." Wow, this is some serious shit. Why was he wearing this around his neck? I remember when we were in the living room he said someone named Slendy confiscated it from him. I wonder who Slendy is. I walked to my computer and looked it up, what came up was rather shocking. It was a tall thing with no face. Their head was white. He wore a suit and had tentacles coming out of its body. The caption on the image said "Slenderman". "So Slendy was a nickname that Ej calls him by and Slenderman is his real name." "Wow Sl---".

"STOPPP!" I heard someone close by, scream at me. I jumped up and walked out of my room. There was no one there. Who could've done that. "Come closer you idiot." There was that voice again but I had no idea where it was coming from. "Where are you? Why are you in my home!?"

"Actually I'm not in your home, I'm on your computer." I turn around to see a figure on my computer screen. "Who are you?"

"I'll introduce myself properly in a minute but please whatever you do, don't say his name 3 times. We have to keep you hidden from him." "Umm ok. Now how did you get stuck in my computer?" Wow I can't say Slendy's real name or he'll probably show up. This was so Bloody Mary type of shit. Scary.

He stared at me intensely. I was already freaked out that a boy was stuck in my computer. He moved one arm up and suddenly the arm moved out of the computer onto my desk. He was crawling out of the screen. I started screaming. It was so creepy. "I knew I shouldn't have watched The Ring last week! Now they're trying to kill me!"

"Oh shut up, I'm just trying to introduce myself properly." said the creepy laptop boy. "Hi, I'm Ben. I've been watching you for only a short time and already you've found out too much. What is wrong with you? Why are you so nosy?"

I was still in shock, a boy just crawled out the screen of my computer. What the hell am I supposed to do now? I just stared at him for a while. He had blonde hair, like the color of gold. His outfit looks like he was tinkerbell's long lost brother. Basically, he was wearing a green looking dress, a brown satchel, elf shoes, and a hat that you would usually see on Santa but it was green. What stood out was, he was wearing a ruby red necklace that had the Eye of Providence on it. "Why are you dressed like a leprechaun?"

"Excuse me, why are you dressed like a harlot? Are you on the way to the strip club?"

I was wearing booty shorts and a crop top. In my defense I was home alone. Until this freak jumped into my room. "Peter pan called, he wants his fairy's clothes back."

"Pimp called, he wants his hoe back. Run along."

"Santa called, he wants his elf back."

"Hello?" He acted like he had a phone up to his ear. He began whispering, "This call is for you, Mia Khalifa said she wants her job back."

I started laughing hysterically. This guy was hilarious. I was trying to keep the jokes pg 13 but this guy just knew how to top them. "Ok ok you won. Now who are you."

"I told you, I'm Ben. I'm your bodyguard. When you're in trouble I come out of your devices and help you." He must've been the reason why my laptop had a red light when my friends came over.

"Sorry but I don't need a bodyguard. I'm perfectly fine. Weirdo."

"No you're not. There are many people after you. Some of my family is after you and our enemies. If they find you they will kill you. Jack told me to make sure you're safe."

"Jack? That's his real name?"

"I'm guessing he didn't show you why he rather call himself Ej than his full name. This should be interesting but enough about ole boring Jack. You probably won't see him again for a long time. He can't stand being around humans. He's mad that he had to spare you in the first place."

"Wait, why are people after me? I never did anything and why do guys say "humans", what are you then? I have so many questions. This entire situation makes no sense."

"You know enough. The less you know, the safer you'll be. Stay out of trouble kid. Don't do anything stupid. I'm watching you."

I heard the front door open. My mom was back home from her date. I looked back at Ben and he disappeared. These fuckers are mad weird. Always disappearing at the last second. I went downstairs to talk to ma.
