DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN JASON, CRYSTAL LAKE, OR ANYTHING ELSE BUT MY CHARACTERS :)
Chapter 19
Once Jason and I finish eating, he carries me outside and to the lake. Hard to admit but I'm surprised he is letting me go outside, due to all the recent events. But I'm sure it's because he knows I need fresh air and space.
He places me at the lake's shore and sits next to me as we look out at the lake.
"…remember that day you tried to drown me?"
"Remember that day you kicked me in the face?" He says with a humorous tone in his deep voice.
I laugh a little, "Sorry about that…I was scared, plus I thought you were trying to kill me."
"…I was…but I changed my mind…and I'm happy I did…mother actually told me to let you go…"
"She did…? Why…?"
He shrugs, "Probably because she knew this would happen…"
I smile and cuddle against his side as he wraps his arm around me.
"I'm so happy she stopped you…I never thought I would enjoy life as much as I do now."
"I agree. My life was basically dipped in shit the day my mother died…but now…she gave me someone to make me feel like I matter in this world."
"Of course you matter, you have always mattered."
"To who?"
I look down, stuck now, "…You have always mattered to your mother…who cares what other people care about. And you matter to me now, more than anything in my life."
His grip on me tightens as he pulls me closer, obviously enjoying my words, causing me to smile.
He looks away from the lake, to the point I can't see his mask or eyes as he says to me, "…I'm sorry about what happened two nights ago…I don't know what got into me…I'm not like that…I'm against that…that is what caused my death in the first place…"
"No, what caused your death was irresponsibility and negligence. Sex, for most people, is about love between two people. But the sex you are familiar with running into isn't that kind of sex, its sex for fun a lot of times. What we had was love…" I finish as I gently take his hand in mine.
He looks down at our hands and slowly closes his hand around mine.
"…I did feel that foreign emotion that night…it overpowered me…I just hope I didn't take advantage of your innocent body…"
"You didn't take advantage of me, Jason. I allowed it to happen, I wanted it just as much as you did…"
Slowly he nods in understanding.
"…did…you urinate on me when we finished…?"
My face ignites in a deep red as I look down, "No…I did just what you did…the point where everything intensifies to the point you release, I can do the same thing…the only difference is that the liquid secreted from me holds no purpose, unlike yours."
He nods, understanding now.
"So, please don't think I peed on you." I giggle nervously.
"Alright." He faces me and pulls me close.
Eventually we both head inside as night falls, once we reach our room, the familiar sound of buzzing can be heard from my cellphone that is lying on the middle of the bed, the caller ID reads Unknown, just like it did this morning…
I climb on the bed and grab my phone and look at Jason.
"Should I answer…? They will only leave another mess-"
Jason cuts me off, "then let them leave a message. Ignore them, they have no business talking with you."
I sigh and look at the phone as it continues to buzz In my hand, "…I will only answer just to see what they want…then I will tell them to leave me alone…alright?"
"Don't answer at all, Aliss."
"…Jason…if anything goes wrong I will hang up on them and block the number…if I can…" As I conclude, I press the Answer button and put the phone up to my ear as Jason's eyes fill with slight anger and protectiveness.
"Hello?" I ask as a man's voice comes on the line, the same voice from the voice message.
"Good evening, Ms. Matthews, this is the Crystal Lake Research Facility calling in regards of a certain business of yours."
"And what does that business consist of?"
"The man you have come to be accustomed with, Jason Voorhees."
I look at Jason, "What about him."
Jason watches in interest, knowing he is being spoken about.
"We want to come to an agreement with you and Mr. Voorhees, in exchange for something we know you are dying for."
"What kind of agreement…"
"We would like to do a small number of painless tests on Jason. We are aware of his extraordinary ability to regenerate and heal damaged tissue, we plan to take a few samples of his blood and do a few other exams. In exchange, we have a reasonable quantity of cash to give you in exchange for your troubles."
"And what do you plan to get out of this…"
"We are certain that Jason could help us in generating a medical breakthrough in the world. His ability could lead to so many advances in the medical field, everything from being able to heal from a broken bone in days to a cure of cancer. Now, I will ask you, are you willing to accept this exchange? Just a few tests will be given on Jason, you get the money and leave the building. The both of you will be completely wiped off the police radars, they will no longer be a threat to you or Jason as none of them will set foot on Crystal Lake's camp grounds ever again. Do we have a deal?"
As I listen to the options, I contemplate whether or not to agree… "…How much money exactly? And how will you be able to ensure the police will remain absent?"
"However much money you request, we are a huge corporation with thousands of sources. Our company works with the police here in Crystal Lake, we are in charge of what is held and what is dropped. One word from us and the police will no longer search for you or Jason."
I realize I have been staring at Jason this whole time, his head tilted in confusion and concern as to what us going on.
"…alright…you have a deal…only if I know I can entrust you with his safety and our release."
"I ensure you, Ms. Matthews, he will leave here in the exact same condition as he arrived in, as will you."
"When do you plan to have all of this prepared for him?"
"Tomorrow, 9am, we will be awaiting your arrival. Thank you for your consideration, you will surely be remembered for giving humanity such a huge advance in life."
"Thank you, I will arrive with him. Goodbye."
I hang up the phone, snapping into reality. Did I just do that…? Well…it's a company…they will keep their word I'm sure…
…it's not like I have a choice now…
