Go to Sleep?

Trigger warning.

I sit in my room. 20 years old. And I still can’t get away from this. I’ve already made about 30 lines. But I was still going. Everyone else was sleeping. They would know in the morning. He always had a way of knowing. Darn redhead. Still. I kept at it. That was. Until I saw my closet door open slowly. No one else slept in this room. Everyone was out. The only weapon I had was myself and my razor. I just stood still. Unable to move from fear. This person was hiding in there. For how long? They walked out slowly and I heard the sounds of a body rushing towards me. Their arm wrapped around my waist. A cold steel pressed to my neck. My razor dropped to the floor and so did the knife. I turned to the eerily familiar face. Tears started rolling again. From fear and joy? I searched his mangled face. I saw sadness and. What seemed to be caring in his eyes. He grabbed my wrists careful not to touch the wounds. His original goal seemed to have been forgotten as he rushed me to the bathroom to clean me up. What was he doing? He had finally come to kill me. And he was cleaning up my cuts? I didn’t understand. I tried to speak but no words would come out. Just small whines. He shushed me some as he searched for bandages. He wrapped me up and walked me back to my bed. Sitting me down. He kneeled in front of me. Staring into my eyes. I wasn’t sure what he was going to do. And he starts to place light kisses on my wrists. The best he could anyway. I started to cry. What was happening?

            “Your to pretty to be doing this to yourself.” He whispered. I cried harder.

            “J-Jeff…” I squeaked. He looked up at me.

            “Stay with me tonight…? Keep me alive for one more night….” I knew asking this of him was insane. He was a killer. And he didn’t care about me. I was just a victim. But he nodded and stood up and motioned for me to stand. He began to get ready for bed it seemed. Soon he was down to his boxers. Not minding that I was in the room. He’s probably gotten use to thought no one would look at him twice. Wrongo my serial killer friend. I was already in my tank top and shorts. I crawled into bed and he laid down next to me. I couldn’t help it. I was cuddled up to him in seconds. He wrapped his arms around me, being careful. Nesh and Deo where going to freak in the morning. But I didn’t care. Something stopped him from killing me. And whatever that bit in him was. It made me feel safe. From even myself. We were both soon sleeping.

 

            When I woke the next morning. I felt he was no longer there. My heart sank and then I heard moving around in my room and knew it was him. I knew what he was doing. But I didn’t dare stop him. I turned over and felt the pain in my arms. I watched him go through my things. I didn’t mind. I knew he wasn’t looking for anything but my things. I didn’t want them for once in my life. Once he saw I had woken he turned to me.

            “Good morning.” He said. I smiled softly.

            “Morning.” I said. He got back into bed with me. I cuddled up to him once again.

            “Thank you for still being here…” I whispered as he put his arm around me.

            “I wasn’t going to break the promise I had given you.” He said softly. I smiled and closed my eyes. Not to sleep. Just to take in this moment. And then I heard moving around outside my room. S**t. I forgot about them. Not only was I bandaged. But Jeff the Killer was in my room. They would flip. I sat up quickly.

            “Jeff. I might have to hide you….” I got out of bed and started to get dressed.

            “What? Why?” He asked getting up and doing the same. Only putting his pants and black shirt on. I slipped on my favorite sweater and kept my shorts on.

            “I don’t live alone. And with. Who you are… The people I live with. Might not be happy…” I said. He looked down.

            “Oh right.. Then I’ll get going.” He said. I grabbed his wrist. Giving him a pleading look.

            “Please don’t…” I cried. His wide cut in smile seemed more warm and he nodded. I sighed lightly.

            “Go into the bathroom or somewhere and I’ll be right back. You want something to eat? Or something?” I asked. He shook his head. I nodded and went out to the living room, carefully shutting my door behind me.

            “Sis. Good morning.” Nesh said. Causing me to nearly jump out of my skin.

            “Whoa didn’t mean to freak you out.” She said. I chuckled nervously.

            “Oh. That’s ok.” I walked quickly to the kitchen and started to make myself a bowl of cereal. She had followed after me.

            “You alright?” She said causing me to spill a bunch of milk. I just nodded and started to clean up. I made my bowl and rushed back to my room. Once I shut and locked the door. Jeff walked out of the bathroom. I sat on my bed and started to eat my bowl. He sat with me. We sat in silence until I was done. I sat my empty bowl on the table.

            “So..?” He asked. I sighed.

            “She’s aware something is wrong. But not sure what. So. We are safe for now” Is said. He nodded.

            “I’m going to take a shower. Just. Sit here and try not to make any noise. Ok?” I say getting up. He nods and takes off his shirt and lays back down. Clearly going to try to get more sleep. Due to the fact that he doesn’t get much. I am fully aware of this. I start to gather an outfit and am almost glad to not see hidden blades anywhere. Expect for Jeff’s knife. Which now rest on my dresser. This made me very happy for some reason. I just blew it off and went to go shower. I got undressed and removed my bandages carefully. I tried my best not to look at my arms. I didn’t want to see them. I showered quickly and made sure to carefully clean the wounds. I got dried off and dressed quickly. I was about to put my shirt on but knew I needed bandaged first. So I quickly walked out to Jeff and woke him.

            “Uh… Sorry to wake you… But I need help…” I said showing him my arms. He nodded and got up and came with me to the bathroom. He cleaned and fixed me up. I nodded a thank you and get ready the rest of the way. He went to go lay back down and I went to get on tumblr. He slept for about three hours and I just stayed on the internet. Blogging and talking to people and listening to whatever I felt like. I knew he was awake when he wrapped his arms around me and snuggled his face into my hip, thinking I was his pillow. When he realized he sat up quickly and I had to hid a giggle from the blush in his cheeks.

            “S-sorry…” He said.

            “It’s fine.” I said smiling. He sat up and I leaned against him and kept doing what I was as he watched. I was content. That was. Until I heard a knock. Then the door opened and my heart raced. The shock and fear on her face showed it all.

            “Sis…” I said.

            “No. How could you not tell me? F*****g. Jeff. How did he even. Oh my god…” She said. I got up and went over to her.

            “Nesh please don’t call anyone. I promise you he isn’t going to hurt any of us.” I pleaded.

            “What makes you so sure?” She asked. I looked back at him and then to her. I rolled up my sleeved showing her my bandages.

            “He stopped me last night… He was going to kill me. But instead he saved me….” I said. She just looked at us both in shock. Not sure what to do. She walked back out of my room and I knew she was going after Deo. I followed after her. Jeff not far behind. I knew this was going to end badly. Once Deo laid eyes on Jeff he flipped.

            “How could you let him into our house?!” He yelled at me. Jeff moved in front of me. As to protect me from Deo. I shook behind him.

            “H-he saved me Deo…” I cried.

            “Listen.” Jeff said.

            “I’m not here to hurt any of you. Yes. That was my first intentions when I came for her. But then I saw what she was doing. And I remembered I had made a promise to my good friend Ben. That is I ever come across someone in that kind of situation or worse. I don’t kill them. I stop think and act. Helping them saving them. She has been the first one I came across and I didn’t want to mess it up. I understand if you don’t want me here. And will gladly leave if told.” He explained. We all just kind of stood in silence for what seemed like hours. I was fearing what would come next.
