This one's so long it has 2 parts. Thanks readers for sticking with me this far (also thanks to the perso . Who inspired this #you know who you are)
"How much fucking longer?!" Hoody groaned from where he was sitting on the couch in the living room. He clicked his old ratty converses together and huffed
The moaning up stairs seemed to Increase in volume, mostly just obscenities and the face-less monsters name between breaths.
" Yeah well, let em have his fun. Haven't been pranked in 2 months. " Clockwork smiled, unnaturally cheery from where she sat sharing a blanket with Eyeless Jack, her trusty sketchbook clasped firmly in hand as her best friend watched her sketch Sally wearing a beautiful bloody flower crown.
It was true, Jeff loved fucking with his roomies, hitting classic pranks like " Nair in the shampoo bottle " to outlandish hall-of-famers like "hiding a severed moose head in the attic and having it drop on Hoody".
" Ya ' know I'm still having nightmares about that fucking deer antler thing. I have a panic attack every time I pass one out on a hunt. " Hoody grumbled, shivering in disgust. Clockwork laughed.
"You brought that one on yourself. Remember the panties? " everyone muffled their laughs as Ben shivered ( except for Jack, always silent).
"Went all Solid Snake Metal Gear on him one night and saw him leave the bathroom in those freaking things.-" Hoody made gagging noises.
"Princess Peach pink and lacy ugh. Safe to say he never did get pranked back. "Ben finished. Everyone laughed as Ben scrunched up his cute button nose and made the blood running down his face flow to the side. He sat with Masky, who was unusually quiet as he chewed his bottom lip, playing cards on the tattered rug in front of the fireplace.
"He would have but no one told Hoody to go all Eye of Sauron on us like the ring was in Jeff's ass." Clockwork smirked, smiling sarcastically at the whiny teen across from her.
oh boo-hoo. You think you all got it bad? My hearing is 7x better than yours. I can hear the headboard. I can hear this nasty wet-
"SO HELP ME IF YOU FINISH THAT SENTENCE I'LL THROW MYSELF DOWN A FLIGHT OF STAIRS. " Hoody grumbled. Smile Dog's grotesque grin seemed to stretch even wider ( if that were possible ). He laid his head by Ben's thigh, watching the game intently. Everyone was silent for a moment, listening to the previously unnoticed thunderstorm outside. Listened to the scary beautiful sound off the rain battering the old sturdy mansion, the trees bending almost horizontally, the sound of a howl of in the distance.
Another moan rivaled a sharp boom of thunder and Hoody cringed. "I swear I'll-"
"Sally's asleep now?" Masky interrupted. Everyone nodded. Masky slipped his mask up and smiled, jerking his head and waving his hands until Clockwork, Ben, Hoody, Smile Dog, and Jack were sitting in a tight circle. Masky leaned closer, laughing when everyone else unconsciously leaned along with him, faces contorted in a confused and excited grin.
Masky rarely got involved in their "childish games " but when he did the results were devilish and awesome. He peered over his shoulder towards the grand hallway, the windows, the roof. Another moan ripped through the storm and Masky nodded.
"Sounds like there marathoning. You guys always do one big unexpected prank, right? Well this time we're going to break it up into pieces, draw it out until he's paranoid and pissed." Masky grinned, waggling his eyebrows as everyone began to talk. Hoody smiled at Masky under his mask, gasped in a stuttered breath when Masky reached over and lifted his mask up.
"You're in right?" He asked. How could Hoody say no with those beautiful eyes staring directly at him?
"Of course man. Whats first?" He breathed out, cheeks flushing when the older boy winked at him and cleared his throat. Everyone quieted down. "Who can get me a needle and hot sauce?"
"GUESS WHO GOT LAAAIDDDDD BITCHESSSS!" Jeff shouted as he burst into the living room the next morning. It was mid-morning and everyone, everyone, was up and in the living room. That itself should have been the first clue (Masky?! Up before 12?!).
"We know you fucksicle. You're awfully loud you know that?" Hoody snapped.
"Totally. I heard some Christina Aguilera up there. Maybe Mariah because you definitely hit some high notes." Clockwork laughed. Jeff flicked his tongue at her as he tied his hair up in a sloppy bun on the crown of his head.
Ben sniffed the air as Jeff walked past. "Oh dude. You reek. You smell like-"
"Hot sweaty deep-dick sexing." The teen finished.
"I was gunna' say like ballsacks and nachos but that's close enough." Ben joked, plucking Jeff's shoulder as he walked past to settle in front of Sally, who had just woken up and was rubbing her eyes and yawing, cliché and adorable as ever.
"I thought deep-dick was a sorta pizza? Are we all getting deep-dick?" She asked out loud, cocking her head so cute and innocent. Everyone burst out laughing, Jeff the loudest as Slenderman descended the steps. If he had lips he would frown at the vulgar teens but instead he chose to scoop Sally up in his arms.
"That's deep-dish sweetie."
"Oh. What's so funny?"
"Absolutely nothing princess. Now, I heard my old friend made you a doll. May I see it?" Sally nodded enthusiastically and hopped down, running up the stairs to retrieve her favorite doll. "You all are terrible. I have to meet with someone in the forest so i'll be home later. We all might be getting a visitor if it goes accordingly. Everyone behave." Slenderman telepathically stated, turning to face each child.
"A visitor?" Ben inquired. "Who?"
"An old friend." Slenderman answered smoothly, bending down to get closer to Sally as she held up a tiny little doll. "What a pretty-'
All the teens turned their attention towards Jeff, who was digging through the refrigerator to pull out a box of donuts Jack had snagged during his last all hunt. They all traded stares, Ben fighting a smirk by biting his lip, Clockwork covering her mouth with her book, the other three concealed in mask. "Hey dicklamp, that ones mine!" Hoody called out, exactly like he was supposed to.
The thing in question was a jelly filled powdered donut. Or, it used to be filled with jelly. Everyone knew Jeff was defiant, and he was 5 times more likely to defy Hoodie than any one else. Jeff picked up the donut, just as expected and licked it. "Yeah well, too fucking bad pencildick!" Jeff sneered, taking a giant bite out of the donut.
Ben couldn't even contain the little squeak he gave as Jeff began to chew the donut. Then, Jeff paused. His normally wide eyes seemed to get even wider, his mouth opened up and his chewing stopped as he gasped. "What the f- hoLY SHIT." Jeff screeched, spitting out the donut and scratching at his tongue with his hands in wild panicked swings. He fanned at his open mouth, letting out a squeal as he flailed around. He fell backwards over a chair and flat on his back, wheezing as the air was knocked out of him. He scrambled around on the floor and let out an awful wail as tears welled up in his eyes.
"What the hel-" Slenderman boomed in everyone' head hurrying over and almost tripping over Ben, who was holding his stomach shaking In laughter.
"JEFFWY!" Sally screamed, eyes coming up to wipe away her tears as she hopped on her toes close by. Clockwork laughed even louder as Jeff sat up and began coughing, slamming his fist in his chest as Slenderman began to pat his back. Hoody was lying with his head on Masky's thigh on the couch, tears streaming down his face as he howled in laughter.
"How fucking strong was that hot sauce Jack?" Masky wondered as he watched Jeff hacking. Jack shrugged. 20 minutes later Jeff stormed into the living room to face a group of flushed teens with poor poker faces. "Alright asshats. Which one of you did it?!"
Ben rolled his eyes and turned to look out the window to hide his smirk. Clockwork's curly brown hair covered her face as she stayed bent over her book. Jack was still and silent as ever. Masky's mask was up and his nose was buried in a book. Hoody, still leaning on Masky's lap was scrubbing his mask with a rag in his hands. Smile dog was asleep. "WHO WAS IT?!"
"Broooooo chill out." Ben answered. Jeff was looking quite wild and royally pissed as he turned to glare at the blonde.
"SO YOU SHITHEADS WANNA' PRANK HUH?! GOT IT. YOU BROUGHT THIS ON YOURSELVES." Jeff shouted, turning and stomping up the steps. Slenderman shook his head and followed Jeff up the steps.
You children are dreadful. Whoever did this should be ashamed.
The door slammed shut and the teens burst out laughing, high-fiving and cheering.
"Badasses:1, Princess Panties:0" Clockwork cheered, earning a fist bump from Masky.
"Bruh, I know what we can do next." Ben smiled, hopping up and leaning the group in for a huddle.
"Slendy?" Jeff mumbled out. He had heard a rustling beside him but he had stayed up last night running from the police. He was exhausted. He sighed with his sleep mask still firmly placed over his big eyes. It was hot but he was too lazy to shrug the duvet off of him. Besides, Slenderman should answer him and open a window. "Sleeendy?" He whined. No response.
"Slendy dafuq bru-" Jeff went to sit up and-and he couldnt. Face and stomach still firmly on the mattress he attempted to sit up, to push up and he couldnt. 'Dont panic dont panic dont panic' he repeated in his head. Maybe Slendy was lying on him? Thats unlikely since he couldnt even move an arm.
"what the hell?!" He tried to wiggle his body and found he could move, just a little. He heard a giggle from the door. Sally!
"Sally! Hey come here!" He heard the pitter-patter of feet before Sally was crouching beside the bed and reaching her tiny arm across to push the mask up into Jeff's raven bangs.
"GAH! Back up!" He jumped when bright eyes and even brighter light met his eyes. Sally giggled, hopping off the tip of her toes and smiling widely. Jeff began to struggle wildly, huffing and grunting as he tried to sit up. What the fuck.
Sally watched him fascinated and a bit confused.
"Jeff, just take off the silver present stuff."
He paused struggling."What?"
Sally ripped off a piece of plastic and held II up yo Jeff's face. His big eyes narrowed down onto the tiny piece of-
"Saran Wrap? FUCKING SARAN WRAP?!" He roared angrily. While Jeff had slept Ben and Jack had snuck in and quietly covered the entire bed with the clear, strong plastic. They had used almost 8 boxes to cover the entire duvet (with Jeff in it) and had it taped to the bed frame, effectively rendering Jeff motionless.
From the living room came a squeal of laughter and Jeff growled angrily when he heard a barely concealed chorus of laughter follow.
"Fuck its hot. Sally go get my knife. Its on the night stand behind me."
Jeff stomped into the living room with his eyes flashing and his knife in hand. Ben was fresh out of the shower combing his long blonde hair. Clockwork was busy untangling barretes and braids from her curly brown locks(courtesy of Sally herself) and looking a bit aggravated. She winced as she pulled out an exceptionally harsh tangle. Jack had his mask up a bit and was eating something slimy and pink on the floor. Smile Dog had his massive furry head on Masky's lap and was listening to the boy read. Hoody was drawing a smiley face with a marker on his hand. Everyone looked wayyyy to innocent.
"WHO THE FUCK-."
"Broooo headache." Hoody whined. Bad move. Jeff crossed the room in a heartbeat and had his knife to Hoody's neck.
"Was it you fuckmuncher?"
"Fuckmuncher?" Clockwork giggled. "Really?"
Jeff whirled around, inky black hair flying over his thin shoulder. "Fuck you. Next person to fuck with me gets headbutted in the fucking esophagus." He waved his knife towards everyone before stomping up the creaky steps.
No one said anything, instead trading knowing smiles, all mischevious winks and fist-bumps. "We need one more." Eyeless Jack whispered. Everyone nodded.
Slenderman had been gone since the day before yesterday. After the whole Saran Wrap Prank incident yesterday Jeff was paranoid, showering with his knife and cutting open all the food he ate. Not that he ate much. The disappearance of Slenderman had Jeff worried and a little upset. How could Slenderman just leave him- all of them really- in the house alone. Jeff had slept at the foot of the bed with Smile Dog with his eyes on the door until he had fallen asleep.
"Jeff?" Clockwork had whispered. Jeff was wrapped in him and Slenderman's duvet on the couch. Ben had told of Jeff's attitude and the last prank had been postponed. Now everyone had silently fluttered around the boy like he was glass.
"Huh?"
"You alright?"
"What yeah! I'm totally fine." He lied. He knew Slendy was a big strong monster who could take care of himself but still, Jeff's self-esteem was making him believe awful things. Like maybe Slendy was done with these annoying kids. Maybe he was done with Jeff.
"He'll be back tonight. I've got a feeling." Jeff didnt respond.
Later that night everyone had crowded onto the couch to watch a movie (thanks to Ben). Sally sitting on Jeff's lap, Hoody and Masky side by side, Clockwork drawing, Ben and Jack On the floor beside everyone's feet. An Infamous thunderstorm shook the old mansion on it's wooden frame and Sally flinched with every boom of thunder, head tucked in Jeff's neck. The movie had won some laughs from the crew, Ben silently mouthing every word. White Chicks was by far his favorite movie.
There was a loud bang before the door swung open on it's hinges, a streak of lightning illuminating 2 figures in the door way. Slenderman and... "Ticci?!" Masky Whispered.
