Josh's POV 

        Last night, After our gameing, I went back to my room and actually got a few things done.

I wrote a few chapters of my novels, wrote a few short stories, poems, and I even got to watch new tricks on the internet to try.

At about noon, Clockwork came up to my room and asked me if I wanted to hang out. Me being nice, I said 'sure'. We then went to her room.

"So what exactly do you want to do?" I asked looking around her blue and green walled room.

"I dunno, you're the first girl here besides me I mean, I normally just stay in my room because these boys can get so annoying sometimes." She said rolling her eye.

"Oh, sorry... I uhh act like a guy a lot, so sorry in advance" I said scratching the back of my head.

She laughed and blew it off. "It's fine, you're still a girl, which already makes you 10 times better in my book... Can we do something I've always wanted to do though?" She asked giving me that 'pretty please' face.

I huffed "what is it?"

"Hehe let's do make overs!"

"W-WHAT" I said shocked. "But..." I looked at her pouting face and sighed. "alright..."

"Yay! okay first wardrobe! I'll go pick you out something, then when I'm done, you go in and pick out something for me, then we show each other what we picked and we have to put it on no matter what!" She smiled brightly.

"Okay, go pick something out..." I said pointing into her closet.

She went in and about five minutes later she came out with an outfit hidden by a large black bag so I couldn't see. "Your turn! Now go!" She said pushing me into her closet.

I looked around and gasped, she had the largest closet I've even seen! I bet there's more clothes in here than the mall!

I took some time looking around, I mean she had everything, although I passed by every dress I saw. I shuttered, dresses are torcher. I never liked wearing them. Hoodies and jeans were fine for me.

I searched and finally found something really cool: a Simple Plan t-shirt with black and white checkered pants with a red belt. I also found black leather boots at the shoe shelves.

I was proud of my outfit but it needed something else... "Ooo! I know," I walked over to the jackets and found a small black blazer with many gold zippers on it, probably just used as designs.

That's cool, okay I'm done. I put the whole outfit into one of those black bag things and walked out.

Clockwork and I traded bags and she made me change first...

Oh no... No no no no. I opened the bag and found a light blue long, strapless, ruffled dress. Not to mention silver heels and jewelry.

I sigh and have a miny fit, but I put the stupid thing on anyway, you don't want to get a killer angry with you...

My legs felt naked, I mean there is no clothing to separate them! It's the weirdest feeling.

I walked out with everything on and she squealed. "Yay! you look so cute!"

"I feel ridiculous, I'd rather wear your outfit, the one I picked for you"

"Yeah about that... I really just wanted to give you a make over... I do this to myself all the time, I really wanted to see someone else after I work my magic!" She smiled sweetly.

I stared at her with a blank expression. "So your saying you want me to be your doll?"

"Well not quite what I ment but I guess that is one way to put it... please please please!" She gave that same begging face.

I sighed and rubbed my temples. "Alright but this is a one time thing, I am a skater, not a Barbie." I said while she hugged my arm.

"Okay okay, I just want to do your hair and makeup and you'll be done" She explained.

"Alright, just tell me where you want me to sit."

"Over there" She said pointing to a seat next to her vanity.

*Clockwork's POV*

I was so happy when Josh let me actually finish her make over!

Once she sat down at my vanity I turned on the curling iron and started with her makeup.

I contoured her face and added blush and started on her eyes. Using a light blue eyeshadow, black eyeliner, and silver mascara.

Once the curling iron got hot I loosely curled her hair to match her ruffled dress. The last finishing touch was applying a light coat of red lipstick and lip gloss.

I made her close her eyes and then turn around. I counted to three and her eyes opened. "What do you think?" I asked smiling proudly.

-Josh's POV-

I looked in the mirror and didn't recognize myself at all.

"Is that me?" I asked pointing at the mirror. I couldn't believe makeup could make me look so different.

"Yes silly! So do you like it?"

"Well it's nicely done... I never thought I'd say this... but thanks, I look really nice" I said hugging her.

"Er sorry... I used to hug... never mind! Um don't we have dinner soon?" I switched subjects.

She looked at the clock. "Shit Slendy is going to be pissed. We have to get down there ASAP" She said pulling me out of the room and down the hall.

Once we got there all eyes (well if you count eye sockets and blank faces as eyes) were on us.

"S-Sorry we're late... uh we were busy..." I tried explaining.

"Yeah we see that, care to join us? Or are you two just going to stand there while the food gets cold? You're lucky we only just started five minutes ago because for some reason, dinner took longer to cook than I anticipated." Slendy stated.

We took our seats and we both were quiet all of dinner.

I felt like everyone was staring at me, which I think they were. I was a little uncomfortable and  wasn't paying any attention. Well until someone poked me.

"Hmm What?" I was snapped out of my thoughts.

"I said what's the occasion? Why are you so dressed up?" Slenderman asked nicely

"Oh um well you see Clockwork wanted to give me a make over and I said sure, So this... all of this won't be an everyday thing, especially being late. And um, if you excuse me I need to uh go. Call me back after everyone has finished and I'll do the dishes, and tomorrow I can help with cooking too, sorry again Slendy, everyone."

I said getting up, about to walk back to my room.

"Josh, why would you offer to do all that?" Slendy asked.

"Because I need to make it up to you, that's how I was raised and that's just how I am." I explained walking over to him. I ended up giving him a hug, I smiled to everyone and went back to my room.

I laid on my bed, still in my dress and everything. I sighed and stared at the ceiling. I shook my head and got up, changing out of the dress, I put on a tank top and pajama pants. Although I kept the makeup and hair the same. Except I pinned the sides of my hair up so it's not in my face. I walked back down to the kitchen to find Slenderman and everyone still sitting there except with empty plates.

"Um what's the matter? Shouldn't you all being doing something fun?" I asked curiously.

They all look at me while Jeff clears his throat. "Yeah let's go guys, we have stuff to do." he said pulling BEN, EJ, LJ, Masky and Hoodie out of the house.

The only ones left were Clockwork, Toby, and Slendy.

"You guys can go, Toby, Clocky, go play dodge the hatchet and knife" I laughed which earned a smile by them both.

"I'm game if you are Toby" Clocky said looking at him.

"S-Same" he twitched smiling. They ran out of the house getting ready to dodge.

Slendy stands grabbing a couple plates.

"Oh Slendy you don't have to help, go do something else, I'll take it from here."

"Child are you alright? No one ever asks to do work."

"Yeah of course I am... I'm not exactly like everyone else. And I don't mind doing it. Like I said I was raised this way."

He paused. Looked at me with his non-existent eyes and spoke.

"Alright then, I'll go do some other work, when you're done, just relax." He then walked up the stairs, down the hall to his study.

I stacked up all the dishes and brought them to the sink, taking a total of 25 minutes to wash them plus the pans Slendy used to make dinner.

When I finished I walked into the living room, noticing how messy it was: cobwebs everywhere, blood stains all over the carpet and couch, cans and old rappers scattered around. It was bad.

I walked back into the kitchen and got two trash bags, one for cans and bottles and one for garbage.

Picking up the mess, I finish fairly quickly. I then put my skates on and grabbed both bags. "I'll be back Slendy!" I yelled somewhat loudly.

I skated down the dirt road in the forest, soon enough I got close to the edge. Finally able to get on the sidewalk. I first skate to my house and put the garbage out.

Then I skate to the nearest grocery store, which happened to be Kroger. Going to the bottle return I end up with $14.30 worth of cans.

So I decided to get snacks. Two bags of Doritos, two boxes of snack cakes, and two different types of jerky, teriyaki and buffalo.

I skated home, well to the mansion. I put the food on the table and go to the closet looking for a cleaner. I found some carpet cleaning powder in the hall closet, and I also pulled out the vacuum.

I sprinkled the powder on the stains and let it set in for about ten minutes before I vacuum it up. I do the same with the couch seeing as it was made with cloth.

Surprisingly it all came out easily. Just as I put the vacuum away I saw Jeff and the guys looking around the living room.

"What's that smell?" EJ asked sniffing around.

"Uh tropical Hawaiian breeze I think. I was just getting the old blood stains out..." I explained.

"I don't think I've ever seen the living room look this nice..." Masky explained.

They just looked around the room for a bit longer. I yawn and stretch. "Well I think I'll head back to my room... I'm pretty tired... if anyone needs me I'll be in my room resting." I say running up the stairs and down the hall to my room.

I lay down in my bed and listen to music just staring at the ceiling. Slowly nodding off no matter how hard I try to stay awake.

I wake up in my bed because of a loud crash. I get up and go downstairs, finding my mom, sister, and brother being attacked by a man.

My mom standing in front of my siblings as she yells at the man. I scream 'Mom' as tears filled my eyes, the man stabbed her in the stomach causing her to collapse. He slits her throat. My siblings are crying and screaming. My older brother tries to attack but gets stabbed on the side of the neck, collapsing as well. My twin sister was panicking and having an asthma attack. He just stabs her in the chest ending it. No matter how hard I try I can't move.

I am finally able to move when I snap. I growl and kick him in the head, knocking him to the floor. I grab the switch blade he used to kill my family and slit his throat.

I cut open his gut and took out every last organ of his. I broke his ribcage and used the small bones to gouge out his eyes...

Once I finished I freaked out. I was scared, the police came because the neighbours heard the screams and I was shaken.

"JOSH WAKE UP!" Toby yelled. I opened my eyes. I was panting and sweating. My eyes stung. I gripped onto Toby, crying. He rubbed my back for comfort.

"You were s-screaming 'no' a l-lot and also 'Mom', 'Katie' and 'Will'... I'm g-guessing it was a n-nightmare. It's okay, I-It's o-okay, you're h-here." He said trying to calm me. I pulled away.

"I-It's okay Toby, I-I'm fine now, thanks..." I said taking a couple deep breaths. I shake my head and open my fridge, I pull out a monster and chug it. gulping the last of it down. "What time is it?"

"5 am. you got a-about six hours of sleep..." He explained.

"First time in months..."

"If Y-You don't mind m-me asking... what was your nightmare about?" he twitched.

I sighed. "My family... being murdered right in front of me... I-I killed him that night... That man who killed them... why didn't I stop him before" my eyes stung again. "if only I got there quicker." I cried angrily punching the wall, making a fist sized hole... in concrete. My knuckles were bruised and bloody but I didn't care. And yes I still blame myself for that night.
Toby looked at me and held my shoulders.

"J-Josh it's not your fault, it's his. I know h-how you feel, my sister died-" I cut him off.

"I know Toby, but you actually couldn't do anything about it, I just stood there, watching him kill my family! I could've done something before! I-I could still have a family! but I was too scared to do anything until it was to late!" I cried as he pulled me into a hug, I pulled away, "I'm sorry, I have to go" I said running out of the mansion with my skates and equipment.

I went to the skate park and let everything out. Doing tough tricks and even falling. But the pain felt good, plus I'd just get right back up and do it again.

This was the only thing that made me feel good again, is to balance the outer pain with my inner pain...

Toby's POV

I left Josh's room, walking back to mine. I didn't think she was capable of feeling that way. She seemed so happy, well for the most part... and punching the concrete wall... Damn. I don't think I could leave a dent let alone a hole. Mental note: don't get on her bad side...

She seemed so upset for telling me that. I mean, I wouldn't blame her.

We just met the other day and she told me something I probably wouldn't even be able to admit to someone I knew for a long time... I hope she's okay...

Third person's POV

Josh would let out her anger in her own way and then eventually come back covered in bruises and cuts.

Everyone asked where she was and what happened but she just said "I went out and did stuff" and went up to Toby's room.

She walked in and apologized again for running out. He told her it's fine and that if she wanted to talk that he was there for her. Josh smiled and thanked him before going downstairs to get something to eat.

She didn't really talk to anyone else that day, only saying little replies.

She went back up to her room and carved abstract marks into her walls. She was going to have to get black paint to outline the inside of the cracks to make it stand out better, but for now she just left it.

Josh's POV

I feel much better, well on the emotional side of me, the physical side of myself hurts like a bitch. I guess that's my own fault though.

I didn't really do much the rest of the day except goof off on the internet.

I went down for dinner and was silent the whole time, I barely ate much too. I just wasn't hungry.

Once everyone else finished, I cleaned up and went back to my room. I watched movies till 8 the next morning.

That's when BEN sent me a message on cleverbot asking me to play with him again. I accepted and walked to his room after getting dressed in a purple hoodie with checkerboard jeans and combat boots.

We played until it was time for lunch and I made everyone a sandwich, including a kidney sandwich for EJ. Although he was grateful, he didn't really eat the bread, which I was okay with, I kinda didn't expect him to.

Everyone thanked me and once they were done they left for their games. I cleaned up once again and went outside and played with Smile dog and Clockwork. Today was... an interesting day...
