Must Read: Friday The 13th *Ever Scary* - Season 1 - Episode 13

Before Destiny could think anymore, she heard the door open downstairs. Her heartbeat quickened. He was back. Destiny felt herself squirm a little, slightly afraid. She knew she really didn’t have anything to worry about, since, well, he DID promise…but she hoped he would understand that she couldn’t sleep.

It’s been a really strange night. She heard the doorknob turn and she flinched, staring at the door expectantly. She watched as he slowly stepped in, looking cautious. He must have assumed that she was asleep and was checking on her to see if she was alright. He must have seen her, because she could hear him take the notepad and pen off the dresser and walk toward her. Destiny hugged her knees a little tighter, feeling her body stiffen a little.

He was very intimidating to look at. He was wearing a hockey mask, and she could see one of his eyes giving her a confused look. His clothes were torn up and slightly bloody, and she could see darker spots where blood was from other killings. Destiny felt a little nervous after seeing that. How many people HAS he killed?
“Are you okay, good girl? Why aren’t you sleeping? Did something happen?”Destiny stared at his somewhat childish handwriting. She felt her face flush lightly as she turned to look back up at him. Even though he wasn’t a very good-looking man by any means, he was still making her as nervous as she would be around the football quarterback. He was looking at her, and she could see concern in his eye. This only made her shy away more. No one ever gave her that look before…

“U-um…I-I…I-I’m still scared…” This was honest. She WAS still scared a bit. She knew this was the last place on earth she expected herself to be, and she still had to get used to it. The man frowned slightly in what looked like slight annoyance, and Destiny panicked.

“I-I-I’m sorry! I-I’m j-just not u-used to this y-yet…I-It will t-take time for m-me to trust you, too…I-I mean…y-you ARE a-a killer…” Destiny trailed off, glancing away and her hands found her hair again. She prayed that he could understand and be patient with her. She suddenly heard the pen scratching again, but she kept her gaze away, slightly nervous for what he had to say. He shook the notepad lightly to get her attention, and she turned back to read it.

“You are the first good girl I’ve ever met. I understand that you will be scared of me for a long time, but I still want to protect you. When I first saw you, I couldn’t help but want to take you away from those bad people who hurt you. I want you to be happy here with me, and I’ll do anything to do that.”Destiny felt her face go red. Was he really being serious? Did he really feel all of those things? She looked up at him, her eyes wide. He glanced away from her, and she could see a shy look in his eye. Was he nervous too? Destiny felt herself smile very slightly. He seemed like he was a little kid in a big guy’s body. She pressed her fingers against her lips to try and hide her blushing.

She was acting like a little kid, too.

“I-I…” she saw him glance back at her, hopefully, and she had to look away, feeling her face go darker. “Th-thank you…n-no one h-has ever t-treated m-me like this b-before…”

Destiny clenched her eyes tight in regret. Of COURSE no one’s ever treated her like this! No one else had kidnapped her before! The man started to write more, and he shook the notepad again to get her attention.
“Will you be able to sleep now?”
Destiny bit her lip and stroked her hair worriedly. Should she tell him? What if he laughed at her? Did she wanna risk getting made fun of again and dealing with that kind of pain again just so she could sleep?

“W-well…I-I…I-I still can’t…”
“Why?”
“I-I…” Destiny swallowed hard, her face now burning brightly, and mumbled, “I-I can’t s-sleep w-without my s-stuffed dog…”

Of course she was.

The room was pretty silent after that, and she forced herself to look up at the man, praying he hadn’t killed himself from laughing. But he wasn’t. He was staring down at her. It looked like he was smiling through his eye. Destiny felt a little relieved that he wasn’t laughing at her, but she knew he wouldn’t let her go get Lacey herself. Either he would go by himself, or he would go with her.

“I’ll go get it for you. I want you to at least try to sleep.”The man then stood up and walked into the abyss that was the rest of the room. Destiny watched him, curiously, until he came back. He was holding something that she didn’t expect him to carry in his entire life. It was a large, dirty, white stuffed rabbit. Its ears were long and it looked extremely old. He sat back down and pressed it gently into her arms.

Destiny was shocked. She stared down at the large rabbit in her arms and then looked back up at the man. The man was looking at her hopefully. He must have thought that the stuffed bunny will be a good substitute until he brought Lacey. Destiny couldn’t help but smile. He was being so sweet…
