(Jeff's POV)
As (y/n) and I walked through the woods, I felt eyes on us. Not wanting to alarm (y/n) I kept it to myself, besides, we weren't being attacked anyways so. Once we were a short walking distance from the well, I heard rustling behind us. And (y/n) heard it too. Before I could react, I was attacked by a blur of black and white.
"Jeff!" (Y/n) screamed.
"Heyo, Jeffy! Long time, no see! Ol' buddy ol' pal!" The person that was mounted on my chest screamed happily.
I groaned, recognizing the voice of my attacker immediately.
"Laughing Jack," I said rubbing my forehead in frustration, "would you mind getting off of me?" I asked half-pushing, half-commanding him off of me.
Laughing Jack happily obliged and climbed off, helping me up.
"To what do I owe this, pleasure?" I asked making my way over to (y/n), who stood completely still, shell-shocked.
"I dunno? Just wanted to visit y'know?" Laughing Jack said making his way over to (y/n). "And who might this be?" He said running a long, black and white striped finger down (y/n)'s jaw.
"This," I said pushing him away from (y/n), "is (y/n). She's new." I said hoping to contain all of my jealousy.
"Ooh, (y/n). What a beautiful name." Laughing Jack said as he extended his arm, willing (y/n) to shake his hand.
(Y/n) didn't even hesitate. She reached out and took her hand in his. At this, my chest became heavy and my heart wrenched around in my chest.
No, it's okay. Nothing's happening. They're just shaking hands. I reminded myself as I huffed a breath out.
"Jeff? You okay? You're a little...red..." (Y/n) said releasing L.J.'s hand, causing me to sigh in relief.
"I'm fine," I shot back a little too coldly, "will you be following us? You know, to the house?" I asked L.J., hoping that his response would be a no.
"Yes, I was just on my way when I saw you two." L.J. said a little too cheerfully.
"Great! Maybe we could get to know each other better." (Y/n) said happily.
I huffed in anger.
"Oh ho ho. Is someone jealous?" L.J. said smiling mischievously at me, his pointed teeth revealed in his toothy grin.
"No." I replied curtly.
With that, I spun on my heel, leaving (y/n) and L.J, behind. Despite (y/n)'s protests, I kept walking. Which was probably a bad idea since (y/n) is really fast. Within a few minutes, (y/n) caught up with me. She pulled on my arm and forced me to look at her.
"What's your problem?!" She shrieked angrily.
"He's my problem." I said gesturing angrily at L.J. who was pretending to ignore our conversation.
"He didn't even do anything!" (y/n) shot back.
I swallowed hard and turned away from (y/n).
"Whatever, I'm leaving. You can take your time and talk to your new friend, if you want." I said shooting a poisonous glare at both (y/n) and L.J. before jumping down the well.
(Your POV)
"What's his problem?" I shrieked kicking up a rock in frustration.
L.J. shrugged and made his way over to me, wrapping a long arm around my shoulders.
"Maybe he's jealous?" He suggested, causing me to huff in denial.
"Of? I just wanted to get to know you. No one said we would make-out and have kids together." I said, blushing at my own comment.
L.J. chuckled slightly, "Jeff's always been that way." He said helping me onto the edge of the well.
"I'm not going. I don't want to annoy Jeff anymore than I already have." L.J. said glancing away from me sadly.
"No, no! Come with me! Jeff can go be peeved somewhere else. You're coming with me." I said holding my hand out for him.
L.J. reluctantly took my hand and I pulled him down into the well with me.
~...~
Once we made it out of the well, the first person I saw was Sally.
"L.J.?" She shrieked in excitement and happiness.
"Hey, kiddo." L.J. said ruffling her hair.
I smiled as Sally led L.J. back into the house. What is Jeff's problem? Jack doesn't seem like a bad guy. On the contrary, if Sally loves him why does Jeff hate him? I huffed in anger at my own thoughts. Jeff's getting a piece of my mind. There was no need to be so rude. When I got inside, I spotted Slendy.
"Hey, where's Jeff?" I asked.
"He's in his room. He told us not to bother him. Mind going into detail?" Slendy asked as I started up the stairs that led to Jeff's room.
"Trust me, it's not worth your time." I replied with a smile. Slendy only nodded and went to greet Jack.
"Jeff? Open the door please." I said once I realized that the door was locked.
Jeff opened the door and went to sit on his bed, avoiding my gaze.
"Let's take this outside. If I start screaming, they'll kick us out anyway." I said. Jeff nodded and we made our way outside.
Once we were far enough into the woods, I settled down onto the trunk of a fallen tree.
"Okay. Tell me what's wrong." I said disguising my annoyance at Jeff.
Jeff huffed angrily and whirled around to face me. I was taken aback at how angry and sad he looked.
"I just don't understand you! One minute, you're my best friend and the next, you're all over me like a love-sick puppy! So tell me, right here right now, are you leading me on or what in the world is happening?" He screamed.
I felt blood rush to my face.
"I-I don't know. I-Jeff I'm sorry." I said stumbling to find the right words.
Jeff rolled his eyes and crossed his arms across his chest. He knelt in front of me. Our faces were so close that I could feel his breath, warm on my lips. Jeff cupped my face in his hands and sighed. Fresh tears rimmed my (e/c) eyes and threatened to spill.
"Listen to me. I know that I might be nothing more than a piece of furniture to you, but you need to know this (y/n)," Jeff said inhaling deeply, "I love you. More than you can ever know."
At those three words, tears spilled out of my eyes and hit against Jane's black jeans that she had let me borrow.
"Jeff, I had no idea you felt that way. I'm sorry. You're way more than a piece of furniture to me. And I'm sorry that it took a fight between us to make me figure this out but, I think I might love you too." I said. At this, Jeff moved closer to me.
I closed my eyes, I could feel his lips, hesitantly hover over mine. I parted mine, willing him to move closer. But before Jeff could, I heard him scream in agony. My eyes snapped open and I saw a long claw, inches in front of my chest. My heart fell into my stomach faster than a stone when I looked down at Jeff's chest, the long claw had pierced his chest, right where his heart should be. I screamed as the claw slipped out of his chest and he collapsed onto the fallen leaves. Behind him, stood Zalgo, who was smiling widely. Angry tears flowed out of my eyes in steady streams as I shrieked Jeff's name over and over, but to no avail. His forever open eyes stared blankly up at the sky.
"I'll kill you!" I screeched as I launched myself at Zalgo.
"You really are too much my dear. You cannot kill me." Zalgo replied in a long raspy voice.
At this, I forced all of my power forward, "oh can't I?" I asked. From under Zalgo, decomposed and ill hands came up from the ground and grabbed hold of his legs, dragging him down. Hungry moans of the undead erupted from the ground.
"This isn't over!" Zalgo screamed in frustration.
"I think it is," I hissed, closing the portal and sealing Zalgo away.
Once I knew he was gone, I ran over to Jeff. I picked him up and brushed a few strands of black hair away from his face. He smiled up at me as a small bead of blood spilled out of his mouth.
"I...love..you so much...(y/n)." Jeff said through small gasps of air.
"I love you too. Please, please don't leave me." I whispered, clenching my eyes shut as tears spilled out.
"Sorry." He said. I gasped as he went limp in my arms.
I pulled out my cell and fumbled with the keys.
"(Y/n)?"
"Slender Man? Please, come into the woods. By the fallen tree, hurry!" I urged.
"What's wrong? What happened are you okay?"
"I'm fine just hurry!" I sobbed and hung up before Slender Man could ask.
You'll be okay, you'll be okay, you'll be okay... I said, not sure whether I was saying that to Jeff, or to myself.
