So Destiny and Jason wrote another contract, promising that Destiny would tell Jason if anything bad happened to her while she was out and that she could only go out once a week. Destiny knew she wouldn't have to go out more than that, so she agreed. Her punishment would be to not be allowed to leave the campsite for a week. Destiny didn't mind that either, even though she already knew she wouldn't break her promise. Once she made a promise, she kept it, regardless of what happened.
Destiny decided it would be for the best if she went out shopping as soon as she could. Destiny wanted to get it over with, first off, and secondly, she was still starving out of her mind, since she hardly ate any of her oatmeal (Jason wound up having a second helping). Of course, Jason wasn't too please, but he knew that he would have to let her go sooner or later.
Jason knew that he was being pretty selfish during their argument earlier that day, but he didn't care. He just didn't want her to go. If anything, he wanted to destroy the car so she couldn't have gone anywhere. But he knew he was acting ridiculous, and that he had to let her go out every once in a while. He knew she didn't like oatmeal, since she let him have her bowl, and the food that was brought to them was running out already. Jason knew he had to be a big boy and just suck it up, but it was tough. The more serious fact was that someone could hurt her while she was out there. Someone could possibly take her innocence away, and just the thought of it made his blood boil. The last thing he ever wanted to see was Destiny running to him half-naked and bleeding her virginity. He had seen girls get raped a few times, and he made sure to kill the boys more brutally then he usually did, for the girls' sake. Sex was bad enough, but having sex against your will was even worse in Jason's opinion. As for the girls, all of them were so traumatized by what happened it looked as if they were somewhat willing to die. That was surprising to Jason when he first saw it, And he knew he never wanted to see that look on Destiny's face in his entire existence.
When Destiny got into the car, she waved Jason goodbye and backed out of the driveway. Jason gave a little wave back and walked back to his house, and straight into Mother's room.
"You've become so protective of Destiny already, Honey…are you sure you don't like her?"
"Mother, I do like her. Just not in the way you think."
"Why not? I don't see any reason why you can't like her!"
"I didn't say I can't like her. I'm just saying I don't like her in that way!"
"You think so, Jason?"
"Yeah. I think so!"
"Well, I can already tell that you're lying to me." Jason looked up at his mother's head and tilted his head to the side. Would he EVER lie to Mother? Never! That would make him a bad boy! Besides…he WAS telling the truth! He DID like her…just not in that way!
…Right?
Jason had to think about it a little. Destiny was, without a doubt, the sweetest thing he had ever seen in his life. Her shyness expressed how pure she really was, so Jason knew she wouldn't be lying to him. And she acted so genuine that he felt like he could tell her anything, hence the reason why he did show her everything about his past. He knew that if, in any event, he had to tell someone about what he had been through, he would have cut some of the things out. Some things he would have rather stay private, like how Mother actually died, and how he was bullied as a kid. But with Destiny, he felt like he could tell her everything. And he did. And he got the biggest shock of his life.
And even though Destiny was a shy, shy girl, she was…silly! When she relaxed and wasn't so scared anymore, she treated Jason as if she was his best friend. Jason never had a friend before, other than his mother, if that counted. The thought of it made him warm up with happiness for what felt like the first time since he was kid. The fact that Destiny was able to act like herself around a man who had hydrocephalus, drowned in a lake and somehow revived, and killed four people in front of her eyes was utterly amazing to him. It seemed that Destiny had been able to get past all of that and see what Jason really was. Jason knew that she still must have been scared of him, but she was still able to relax and be herself around him. That meant a lot to him. It felt like he had actually made a friend by just being who he really was, which was all he ever really wanted.
Jason smiled softly at the thoughts churning in his head. He was starting to remember all the times she had smiled at him. She had such a nice smile. It didn't look the fake smile the bad girls had. Her smile looked real. Sure, her teeth weren't as bright as the bad girls' teeth were, and after finding out that she was rich, she could have definitely whitened them in some way, and yet she didn't. That made her more real to him.
Her eyes were pretty too. They were a deep brown color that seemed to shine whenever she smiled. Jason couldn't help but stare into them as much as he could without her realizing, which he found out he was pretty good at. Whether that was a good thing or a bad thing, he didn't know.
And she was such a tiny girl, too. She had such a small figure that he almost had to ask if she was anorexic or something. He had seen an anorexic girl once stumble into his campsite about two years ago. She was almost as small as Destiny was, but he knew she wasn't supposed to be. Jason couldn't help but watch her for a little while, wondering why on earth she thought she was fat, since that's what she always mumbled that to herself. In the end, when Jason was about to kill her, she was gone. He wondered what ever happened to her…
…Anyway, back to Destiny.
Yeah, she was tiny. And light, too. When he picked her up, he almost threw her across the room by accident. Picking her up was definitely something he didn't expect to do. Ever. And he didn't really expect for her to let him. But holding her like that was nice. He had seen other guys to it to girls, and he didn't really see what the big deal was. The girls seemed so happy when it happened, which irritated him a bit. Hell, anyone could do that. Especially him. But after doing it to Destiny, he felt something sweep over him. She didn't seem to like it, but it felt so good to him. It felt like he was protecting her, which was his goal after all. She was probably just shocked that he did it at all, since, you know, no one would have seen it coming. Not even him. She felt so delicate in his arms. He felt like he could have snapped her in half if he wasn't too careful, which did frighten him a bit. He didn't know what he would do to himself if he did actually wind up hurting her. She would leave him, of course, which would be punishment enough. But just the fact that he did hurt her would make him feel like he deserved even more punishment then that.
Right now, now that she was gone, he felt really lonely. More lonely then he had ever felt before. He missed her already and she wasn't even gone ten minutes. He missed her smile, her cute little laugh, her soft skin that glowed when she was nervous, her tiny frame curled up against his couch, her gentle brown eyes that-
"See? I knew you liked her!"
Jason jumped as the thought flew out of his mind at the sound of his mother giggling at him.
"Did you honestly think I couldn't hear you, you silly boy? I caught every single word!"
Jason felt his face go red and he stared at his mother in disbelief. Was he really that dumb? Did he not think that Mother couldn't hear him?
'Mother, I-!'
"Never lie to your mother, Jason dear. She'll always get her way to the truth somehow!"
'I don't like her!'
"Jason, don't you even think about trying to get out of this one. You do like her, and there's nothing wrong with that!"
Jason sighed weakly and glanced away from his mother's head.
'Mother…she doesn't like me that way.'
"That doesn't mean she won't in time, Darling. Don't you lose hope, yet. She's only been here for a few days, and not even that. Just give her time."
Jason sighed and looked back at his mother.
'…Do you think she would like me?'
"Jason, you're such a special boy. Of course she'll like you!"
Destiny sighed as she pulled into the parking lot to the local grocery store. She was already not used to seeing so many people around. She had already gotten used to the quietness around Camp Crystal Lake and the fact that there was so much noise was giving her a headache. She slowly got out of the car and walked into the grocery store, pushing her wallet into her jeans pocket. Destiny wanted to make this trip fast and get it over with. Believe it or not, she already felt unsafe.
Destiny didn't realize how safe she truly felt with Jason around. Sure, she was still a little scared of him, but he still gave her a sense of protection. Now she felt vulnerable, like someone would jump her at any second. Boy would they pay, wouldn't they? The look in Jason's eye still sent chills up her spine. Boy, did he know how to intimidate…
Destiny couldn't help but sigh to herself again as she grazed the aisles, picking up things that she liked and ingredients for meals. She was already starting to miss him. She missed his somewhat scary but also calming presence when he walked into the room. She missed how he would pat her head, which she thought was really sweet. She missed how he would tilt his head to the side whenever he was lost. Destiny couldn't help but smile. For a big scary man, he was pretty cute!
She couldn't help but blush a bit either. She couldn't help but think of Jason as a sweetheart, but the thought made her scared. Was she possibly developing a thing for him? He was a somewhat gentle guy, given what he's been going through, and he's already taken good care of her. He helped her through a really tough time, which wasn't over yet, and he was able to calm her down enough not to lose her mind. Sure, he did lose his temper once, when he had seen her near his mother's head, and her scalp throbbed painfully at the memory. Jason could, without a doubt, overpower her at any time if she struck a nerve. Destiny just had to be sure to stay on his good side.
Destiny shook her head, placing her items on the belt for the cashier to cash in. Of course she wasn't forming a crush on him. She was only appreciating how nice he was being.
'You gotta stay on your toes, Desty. For all you know, Jason could turn his back on you.' Destiny shivered at the scolding in her head. It was true. He could just be playing tricks on her.
While Destiny paid for her items, two men walked up next in line. They were both reasonably young, about Destiny age, and they were deep into a conversation.
"…and the parents refuse to talk about it, huh?"
"Yeah! Is that weird or what? I mean, don't you think they would try and get to the bottom of what happened to their kids instead of not pursuing it?"
"Totally! That's so strange! Did they even care about them at all?"
Destiny's interest heightened as she overheard their conversation. As she signed her name on the receipt, she listened harder.
"It's a shame, too. The two chicks were really hot!"
"Aw, hell yeah, man! They were so fucking hot…if only there were girls like that around here. They were all wiped out by that dude from the abandoned campsite, right?"
"What, that Jason dude? Man, he doesn't exist! He's only an urban legend."
"Then how did all those chicks and guys die, then?"
"They got lost. No one could recover the bodies, remember?"
"Maybe that's because Jason ate them!"
"Aw, dude that's sick!"
The two boys laughed and started placing their six packs of beers on the belt. Destiny looked away quickly, try to look inconspicuous as she grabbed her bags and made her way out the door.
"Hey, wait!"
Destiny's heart stopped as she turned around, somewhat struggling with her bags. The two boys were making their way toward her. One of the boys had sandy-colored hair and deep, blue eyes while the other one had somewhat short brown hair and brown eyes. Destiny could feel her heart pounding in fear. She had never been approached by people before. How was she supposed to react?
"Hey, you look like you're struggling with your bags, there," the one with the brown hair said. "Do you need a hand?" Destiny stared up at him dumbly, not exactly taking in what he just said until a few seconds later.
"H-hu? O-oh-n-no, I-I got them. Th-thanks, though." She stuttered quickly, feeling her face go red. The sandy-colored boy looked at her oddly, which only made her go more red in embarrassment.
"Hey, you okay, chick? Overheating or something?" Destiny quickly shook her head and took a step back, starting to tremble.
"N-no, I-I-I…"
"Hey, hey! Chicka, calm down! Sheesh, have you never talked to a guy before?" the minute the sandy-haired boy spoke, the brown-haired boy glared at him incredulously.
"Riley, what the hell's the matter with you? Why would you ever say something like that?"
"What? It's true! I mean, look at how red she is! She looks like a freakin' fire truck!" Destiny could feel tears welling up in her eyes. She knew she couldn't help it if she was shy, but did he have to be so mean about it?
"Dude, shut up! You know what, just wait by the truck. I'll be over there in a minute." Riley glared at his friend before wiggling his eyebrows at Destiny and leaving. Destiny felt herself shiver at his gaze. She heard the brown-haired boy sigh and look back down at her. He was pretty tall; her head only reached his neck.
"Hey, look, I'm sorry about Riley. He can be a bit of a jackass. My name's Roy. I've never seen you around here before, are you new to this place?"
"E-er, y-yes…I-I'm Destiny, b-by the way."
"Huh…weird name…anyway, if you're new around here, then why don't you come along with Riley and I? We were just about to go pick up some snacks and go to Camp Crystal Lake for a party. Do you want to come?" Destiny flinched at the mention of Jason's home. Why would they go there for a party?
"I-I thought C-Camp Cr-crystal Lake w-was haunted?" Roy laughed and touched her shoulder gently, which made Destiny go red again and flinch back. Roy noticed and smirked softly.
"Boy, you're a shy one, aren't you? That's kinda cute, you know." Destiny quickly looked down, still not used to compliments, and felt her face go even deeper red.
"Anyway, that's just an urban legend. The adults tell us that just to make sure we don't trash the place, but believe me, the campsite isn't gonna be trashed…" Roy grinned at his little foreshadowing, and Destiny looked at him quickly.
"Y-you mean…?"
"Oh, yeah…we're gonna get so trashed, babe! It's gonna be a freakin' blast!" He laughed and glanced over his shoulder at Riley, who was giving him an annoyed look. While he was looking, Destiny took the opportunity to take a few steps back toward her car. Roy noticed, unfortunately, and frowned.
"What? You don't wanna come?" Destiny shook her head quickly.
"N-no, I-I…I-I don't believe in dr-drinking…"
"…Are you fucking kidding me?" Destiny looked down and felt tears welling up in her eyes again. Oh, why couldn't he just leave her alone?
"Boy, you're a bit of a prude, huh, Sweetie?" Destiny hunched her shoulders and tensed. She prayed that someone would come around and stop him. Too bad that in all of her worrying, she didn't notice Roy moving right up in front of her, leaning down and whispering in her ear.
"I love teaching prudes that they have a wild side…"
That was all it took for Destiny to run into the car, throw all of her food into the passenger seat and drive off like a speed demon, her little heart thumping like a drum.
END CHAPTAH!
Hmm, this one's kinda long, huh? That's okay! I love writing long chapters! Besides, everything looks longer on my iPod. Heehee…
So…Jason DOES like Destiny! AWWG, how sweet! He's got a crush! Poor Jason getting all embarrassed when his Mummy found out he heard ALL of his thoughts. Not the smartest thing to do, huh, Voorhees? *Laughs nervously and takes one step away as Jason brandishes his machete from, once again, a decently safe distance*
So Destiny did run into a little trouble there, huh? I'm sorry if no one wanted her to get in any situation like that anytime soon…if you didn't, let me know. Perhaps if I get enough of them, I'll remake the chapter. If that'll help…
Do you think she's going to tell Jason what happened? Or do you think she'll actually keep it under her invisible hat? I wonder…
I dunno if this is weird or not to you guys, but whenever I get into something, I usually make a playlist of songs that remind me of them. I made one for Jason a while ago, and it. Is. Weird. Here are the songs I got so far.
I Was Wrong – Sleeperstar
Domino – Jessie J
Dead! – My Chemical Romance
Be Your Girl – Chieko Kawabe
Fashion – Lady GaGa (Which actually reminds me of Jason, Freddy and Angela Baker from Sleepaway Camp, which I never saw.)
Ass Back Home (Feat. Neon Hitch) – Gym Class Heroes
Voices – Saosin
The Diary of Jane – Breaking Benjamin
Always All Ways (Apologies, Glances and Messed Up Chances) – Lostprophets
Don't Believe – Mehrzad Marashi
Er…yeah…I think that's pretty weird, especially Domino, Be Your Girl and Fashion…Yeah…I just thought I'd share my extreme oddness with my readers. Thought it'd make things a little more interestin'.
So! In other news, I was going to save this until this story was over, but if it must, I will start this now, but I was thinking about making a Horror Highschool kind of thing, with Jason, Freddy and Michael Myers. There are going to be three OC's, one for each guy, and I was planning on doing this with two other people. The spots for Jason (Me) and Freddy (Dream'sRealm) are taken, but if anyone wants to be Michael's OC, please send me a message! Then we can all try and work together and get this story on the orad! So, please if anyone is interested, send me a message, okay?
Oh, and I got Freddy vs. Jason! *Squeal* I am SO watching all the stuff it has to offer! Can't wait!
60 reviews! Whoa, nelson! You. Guys. Are. AMAZING! I seriously get all happy-go-lucky when I see that number go up! It feels great! Please review, guys. Even review on older chapters if you want. Doesn't matter to me.
