And it looked like spilt milk. To the kitchen!
At the kitchen table sat Masky, Hoodie and Toby, Toby had a plate of waffles and both Masky and Hoodie had cheesecake. As soon as I came in with Jack and Kit Hoodie squealed and quickly pulled his mask back on along with his hood. All I saw of his face were his emerald green eyes and pale red lips.
"Hoodie stop being shy, sooner or later she'll have to see your face, she's a proxy like us now." Masky scolded.
Hoodie sighed and shrugged then he pointed to Jack and Kit.
"Okay I suppose you have a good point there." Masky said then he turned to me. "Hoodie is extremely shy; it took him four months to show Toby his face and nearly took me forever to find out his real name. Don't take anything he hides personal, he's just shy."
Masky had his mask off while he ate his cheesecake; he had fluffy light brown hair, sideburns and dark blue eyes that sort of reminded me of the ocean on a stormy day. Toby had his dark green mouth mask off and was wolfing down waffles like they were going out of style.
"Is there anything you'd like in particular Amity?" Jack asked.
"Uhh uhhh I-I'll eat anything." I replied
"Name something and I'll make it, anything you want."
I didn't understand this; he wanted me to make a choice. He was willing to waste his own precious time just so my needs would be content, didn't he have better thing to do?
"Could I have a s-sandwich?"I asked.
"Sure, what type?"
"I-I don't care b-but I'm a peskaterian s-so no meat."
Toby looked up from his plate of waffles and asked in a confused manner. "Peskaterian?"
Hoodie, Kit and Masky were also staring at me a bit oddly.
"Don't you mean vegetarian?" Kit asked.
"N-no." I shook my head
"A peskaterian has a diet similar to a vegetarian diet but peskaterian can consume anything that came from a body of water. Anything that lives its life in water isn't considered a true meat and is even in its own category on the food pyramid. "Jack explained. "I personally think that a peskaterian diet is one of the healthiest diets possible since you consume just enough iron and nothing unhealthy"
"Thank Zalgo you wanted to be a doctor!" Masky cheered.
I watched Jack and Kit make my sandwich; they did it with ease and treated the project like they were making food for the queen of England. It looked like they cooked together all the time. In order to prepare the sandwich Jack had to take his gloves off and that's when I noticed is hands, the skin was light gray and he had sharp claws at least one inch long and black in color. Kit didn't flinch at the sight of Jack's hands; she didn't even seem to notice them. Of course she doesn't notice them Amity, who knows how long she's known Jack, she's probably used to them by now. Yeah, but most human girls would freak; who says she's human? While Masky had explained what Creepypasta is he had mentioned that most of them tend to be demons or spirits. So far I could tell that Ben, Jack, Clockwork, Slenderman and Jeff aren't human but what about Twisted Kit? She seems very human to me. Masky had never said anything about a fifth proxy and had told me that a human in the Nightmare Realm wouldn't last very long without markings. Kit must be a demon or something but what makes her one?
"Hey kid what sort of jelly do you want?!" Kit snapped.
"Huh, what?" I jumped, shocked out of my thoughts by her voice.
"What type of jelly do you want? Are you death, can you hear me?" Kit repeated.
"There's grape, blackberry, raspberry and mulberry." Jack said reading off the labels on the jelly jars.
"Mul-mulberry pl-please." I replied.
Toby threw his now empty plate across the room suddenly and it hit the wall with a loud crashing sound before falling to the floor and shattering into a million tiny shards.
"Dude!" Masky shouted. "That almost took off my head, so not cool!"
"Do you really want to know what's not cool?" Toby hollered, his eyes were wide in anger, his fingers were twitching wildly and he was taking in deep breaths of air. "Your just letting this person come in and take my place! I thought we were bros, are you seriously going to let her take my place? She doesn't belong here with us!"
With that he stomped out of the room and we could all hear him slam the door. Clockwork ran into the kitchen and told me that she was sorry about Toby's behavior and that I should know he's challenged. Before she could really say anything more I told her it was fine then she left the house. Toby had no idea how right he was, I don't belong here, I gave up on this way a long time ago. I can't be happy among other people, they just don't understand me and either way I don't deserve to be happy. Jack and Kit soon finished my sandwich and I thanked them. I ate in silence thinking about why Slenderman even wanted me as his proxy, there's nothing special about me at all. I soon finished my sandwich and Kit led me up the stairs.
Kit let me borrow a pair of pajamas which was just a long old looking Green Day t-shirt that went down to my knees and underwear. Once I was dressed she led me into a room.
"This was Hoodie's room before he moved into Masky's room." She told me.
The bedroom was very neat, the walls were painted burgundy brown, there was a queen sized bed with a purple, brown and gray zigzag patterned blanket, the rug was a nice dark orange color, the windows has see through orange curtains, there was a wooden dresser and a lonely bookshelf.
"At some point you can decorate the room however you want it so your more comfortable but for now this will have to do."
"It's f-fine, thank you."
Kit turned around to leave but then she whipped back around and said. "Look, forget what Toby said, he's just being a brat most of the time he's nice. I know that right now he seems like a total dick but that's just because he's jealous. Toby didn't really mean what he said down there, he just thinks that Slenderman might replace him. Slendy is like the father Toby never had."
After that she left me alone in the room. I placed my messenger bag underneath the bed after I got Beau out of it and turned off the light. In the dark I laid down and stared up at the ceiling. I shouldn't be here, these people are to friendly, they care for each other and have bonds. I don't want to be apart of this, I don't want to get hurt, I wont be able to take the pain again. Toby's right I don't belong here, I made a promise to my brother Leon that I'd protect myself. I'm protecting myself right now by keeping to myself, these people don't have to protect themselves like that.
I WANT TO HEAR YOUR COMMENTS AND PREDICTIONS AND THOUGHTS, THEY FEED ME! Happy 4th of July!
