We went into the living room and turned on the TV. We both sat on opposite sides of the couch. There was nothing on, so I flipped the news on. The news lady seemed very concerned.
“Breaking News from a country home where 46 year old James (Y/L/N) was murdered. Police say he was stabbed 13 times in the stomach with a kitchen knife. The only suspect they have come up with is his only daughter-” I shut the TV off, I didn’t want to hear anymore.
“That was me, they’re looking for me now,” I staggered out.
“It’s alright, they’ll never find us. You’re safe here. I would never let them get you (Y/N),” Jack said. I smiled at him. We watched a Gravity Falls Marathon for a long time. We laughed a lot too. When we finished it was about 10:30pm. We were both pretty tired, so we went to bed.
I went into my room. The walls had grey paint chipping off of them, but the bed was comfy and warm, so I was happy. I curled up under the black sheets and tried to fall asleep.
In my dream, I was back in my room. My father was coming at me again. All there was after that was blood. Blood everywhere. It got into my mouth and eyes and I couldn’t breathe. I woke up with a start. Tears ran down my cheeks.
I heard a quiet knock on the door. Jack popped his head in the doorway. It was really dark, but I could tell he still had his mask on, but his hood was down and he had taken his gloves off.
“You ok? You were yelling in your sleep,” he sounded concerned.
“My dream, there was blood and my dad and blood everywhere I couldn’t breathe or see I-” I got cut short. Jack was sitting next to me on the bed, and I hugged him. He seemed shocked at first, but he hugged back.
“Jack, we have a problem,” I said worryingly.
“What’s the problem? We can fix it,” He asked.
“We can’t fix this Jack.”
“Why not, what is it?”
“Turn the light on Jack.”
Jack pulled away and got off the bed. He rushed over to the light switch and flipped it on. The dim bulb flickered to life.
Jack rushed back over to me and sat back down on the bed. I opened my mouth to show Jack my teeth. Jack froze in place. I closed my mouth. The sharp teeth in my mouth fit perfectly together.
“Yeah, I don’t think we can fix that either,” Jack mumbled.
I hugged Jack again; I buried my face in his shoulder and cried. He hugged me back again. We sat like this for a while. Jack pulled away and looked me in the eyes. He lifted up his mask up to his nose and smiled at me.
“Hey, now we match!” He tried to cheer me up. I gave a sad laugh.
“Will you ever take that mask off?” I asked.
“Trust me; you’ll like me better with it on,” He said.
“No I won’t, I would love you either way. Wait, did I just say that?” I asked.
“Um, yeah. Ya did,” Jack said slowly.
“Uh….well, I guess we should be getting back to bed, right?”
“Yeah, we should get some sleep.”
“G’night,” I said.
Jack left the room and closed the door softly behind him.
