Jeff the Lover?! by Kelly Bui (fantasy novels to read txt) 📖

Chapter 3: Why me?!

"Come in..." I sighed. The door opened and there was my parents. I wasn't very happy to see them, but I put on a fake smile.

 

"Oh my lordy! Darling Kelly, are you alright?!" My mom asked when she ran in, obviously faking because the doctor was still in the room. "

 

Yes, I'm fine." I replied, trying so hard not to punch her in the face.

 

"Well, we're glad you're okay." My dad sighed, as he wrapped his arm around my mom's shoulders.

 

"Thanks, dad" I smiled even wider, still fake. "Well, you're being discharged tomorrow." Said my fake crying mom.

 

"Mhm. You're happy right?"

 

"Yes, of course." We had one of our "fake" conversations when we were around other people. "Well, honeybunch. We gotta go but we'll be happy to see you back at the house." My dad said, while stretching.

 

Finally! I thought. I hate them so much... I sighed and went back to frowning when they left the room. I looked at the clock to see what time it was. It was 11:37 pm. I sighed and layed down, turning off the lamp. The wind was slowly whistling outside my window. And the smell of hospital chemicals seemed strangely relaxing. I sighed and finally fell asleep as the monitor was beeping rythmically, reminding me of my heart beat.

 

Time Skip 3:00 am

I was awaked my a small tap on my door. I thought that it was just all in my head so I went back to sleep. There as a knock again but louder. I sighed and sat up on my bed a little, rubbing my eyes. "Come on..." I said groggily. The door slowly creaked open. As I waited for the door to open, I looked out the window because I noticed there was a thunderstorm outside. Thunder roared and made the ground shake.

 

I had to hold onto the side of my hospital bed to balance myself. After the light of the lightning cleared and my focus was restored, my attention returned to the door and the person behind the door. I screamed but the sounds of the rain pounding on the windows made it fade out. There at the door way, was Jeff the Killer. Smiling, like he always is and knife in his hand, ready to kill someone. My muscles tighten and I shook in fear. I couldn't do anything and couldn't think straight.

 

"Why hellooo there...!" He said with a crazy look in his eyes. I didn't respond. "Aw, knife got your tongue?" He held up a tougue but it wasn't mine. I'm guessing it was one from the lab but it was disgusting. He threw the tongue on me and it landed in my lap. I jumped up finally and fell on the floor. THUD! I rolled onto my back, groaning. I still couldn't move anymore because as I looked up to the door, I saw Jeff walking over to me. He picked me up into his arms and grinned. "We're gonna have some FUN!" He carried me down the halls as I was craddled in his arms, motionless.

 

"Wh-where are we going...?" I managed to stutter.

 

"Oooh and so the little murderous princess talks...!" He replied looking into my eyes.

 

"M-m-murderous?!" He didn't reply but instead, carried me to the top of the roof. Once we went through the doorway, we were already soaked. "What're we doing here?!" I yelled over the wind, yoweling and whistling.

 

"Oh... Just so I can make a deal with the murderous princess." He acknowledged.

 

"Deal?!"

 

"Yup." Right after my question was answered, I found us at the edge of the hospital building. I wrapped my arms around Jeff's neck so I wouldn't fall.

 

"What deal?!"

 

"Here goes nothin'." I was confused. "Now," He started, "If you agree to become my slave and or apprentice, then I will let you live but you will not tell anyone." 

 

"HELL NO!" I screamed. He let go of me and I started to fall. He grabbed my arms. 

 

"But...!" He continued. "If you DON'T agree, then I will let you go and make you fall to your death!" 

 

"Why me though?!" I asked.

 

"Because when I first saw you, I could see a murderous look in your eyes."

 

"So?!" He let me slip a little.

 

"Answer me now, Kelly Bui. Become my slave and apprentice, or fall to your death." I was astonished by how he was talking. He sounds more mature than earlier before in my hospital room. Maybe because he wasn't really serious then... 

 

"ANSWER ME!" He yelled, snapping me out of my trance. As he said so, I was slowly slipping and was about to fall to my death. I screamed. 

 

"YES! YES I WILL!" I yelled, frightened. "JUST PLEASE PULL ME UP!" I was crying but you couldn't really tell because of the rain. My eye lids were closed and squeezed shut. I was pulled back up and layed down on the top of the roof now, panting and coughing up rain water because I was yelling so water got in my mouth. 

 

"Now my little murderous princess APPRENTICE," He said as he kneeled down next to me and putting emphasis in the word "apprentice". "Go to sleep..." The strangest part of that was when he said that, it was scary but also soothing to me. I was really tired and couldn't keep my eyelids open any longer. The last thing I saw when I was falling asleep... Was Jeff's smiling face.

Chapter 4: Time to Meet the Family

 Jeff's POV The Next Day: 9:30 am

Damn... She was so heavy. Can't believe for someone so small, she was so heavy. She's still asleep in the room that I carried her into last night, after passing out on the roof of the hospital. I sighed as I sat down on my couch next to my best friends, Eyeless Jack and Ben Drowned. 

 

"What's up with you?" Asked Jack.

 

"Nothing much," I replied. "Just thinking about how this slave/apprentice thing is going to work out."

 

"I'm sure it'll be fine, Jeff." Said Ben, playing the Xbox. "Besides, it's a GIRL." He winked at me.

 

"What? Yeah, so? What if she is a girl?" I was so confused and lost. 

 

"For god's sake, Jeff! You're so clueless." Jack said disappointedly.

 

"Just tell me what wrong about her being a girl!"

 

"Whatever. You'll find out soon enough."

 

I got mad so I just went to a the kitchen to grab a wash cloth and clean my knife. I also looked around for a good knife for Kelly as well. Going from drawer to drawer, I finally found three knives she might like. One was a huge meat cleaver, another was a medium pocket knife, and a normal kitchen knife, like mine. I brought them all upstairs and knocked on the door. 

 

"Come in," Sally answered. I opened the door and walked in to see Sally was sitting on a chair next to Kelly's bed. Kelly was sitting up on her bed, looking straight at me with a look of fear. 

 

"Sally, why are you here?" I asked.

 

"I heard someone saying 'Hello? Where am I?' about let's say... 10 minutes ago? I've been talking to her since then." 

 

"Ah I see... I'll take over from here now." 

 

Sally nodded and stood up. She walked by me and shut the door. When the door shut, I was already making my way over to the chair and sat down. Kelly's eyes widened, but she said nothing. I didn't say anything for a while either but I finally broke the ice. "So Kelly," I started. She looked up and the look of fear in her eyes was disappearing slowly as I talked in my normal conversational voice. "I brought you three knives you could choose from and be my apprentice."

 

"U-Uhm..." She studdered in a quiet voice as she looked at the meat cleaver, survival knife, and kitchen knife. "Do you have an axe anywhere by any chance...?" I was surprised at her request. 

 

"Um... I'm sure we have one around here somewhere." I replied, with my best smile. Her eyes brightened a little. "But if we can't find one, do you want a spare weapon?" I indicated the knives on the night stand. She looked down at them and grabbed the kitchen knife. "Alright then, training is tomorrow but for now you can settle in to your new enviroment." 

 

"Yeah okay..." She replied.

 

"What's wrong?" I asked.

 

"I kinda wanted to start today because I know what you do and stuff. You kill and murder people in cold blood." 

 

"Um... Sometimes I murder for revenge actually..." 

 

"Really?!" She sat up straighter.

 

"Yea... Why?" She got up off the bed. 

 

"Can we go out and practice tonight? You know, to see how experienced I am currently?" I looked at her eyes and they were glistening with excitement. No fear found at all, which was strange.

 

"Sure why not?" I shrugged. She smiled. "But first, you need different clothes. Sorry if there isn't much but there's some outfits you can choose from the closet in the corner of the room." She nodded without saying a word and went to the closet. I left the room so she could have some privacy and walked back downstairs. Jack looked up but Ben continued to play the Xbox. 

 

"She awake now?" Jack asked. 

 

"Yeah, she's changing right now. We're going out to see how well she is tonight." Ben paused the game and looked at me. Then turned to Jack and Jack looked back at him, not saying a word. "What?" I asked. Ben and Jack jumped off the bed and ran upstairs. It took a little bit for me to process what they were going to do. "OH HELL NO!" I chased after them and saw then running down the hall to Kelly's room. I jumped in front of the door and blocked them from entering. "You guys are never going to see her change while she's here." They groaned.

 

"Jeez, Jeff..." said Ben. "You're just like the dad we never had."

 

"Yeah, man. Let us see her." complained Jack.

 

"Hell to the no," I said. "Get your asses back downstairs and continue whatever the hell you guys were doing down there." They just sighed and groaned but I didn't move. Then they finally went downstairs. I sighed and knocked on the door. "You done in there, Kelly?"

 

"Yeah, you can come in." She replied through the door.

 

I opened the door and walked in. "You ready?"

 

"Yup!" She replied holding her knife. She also changed into some black skinny jeans, a grey loose hoodie, and some black vans. 

 

"Cool let's go." I walked out of the room and downstairs with Kelly right behind me. Ben paused his game again and Jack looked up from his "Sports Illustrated: Cars Edition" magazine. Ben stared in awe and Jack wolf whistled. I could tell Kelly was blushing a little and glared at them. They just laughed. 

 

"Oooh," Ben said saracastically. "So scary...!" 

 

"Hahaha..." Jack snickered. I shot them both a death glare and they stopped. I heard Kelly giggle behind me. I sighed and walked towards the doors. "Ready, Kelly?" 

 

"Ready Jeffy!" She replied happily. I growled a little.

 

"Don't ever call me that again..." She just laughed and we walked out
