Darkness. That's all you could see in whatever room you were in. Where were you? You had no clue, in fact you couldn't really remember how long you've been in this room, but all you knew was that someone kidnapped you and you were just hoping, praying, that this was just a prank being pulled by a few of your friends from college.

     All you could remember was walking out of your house when suddenly you were knocked out.

From the chair you were tied to, you heard a noise coming from your right side, probably about 10 feet away from you, making you jump. "H-hello?" You asked the air. Silence. You were on the brink of a sudden breakdown, then soon, you felt hands on your shoulders from behind you and bright lights were instantly flashed on, making you squint. When your eyes adjusted, you saw that you were in a basement of some sort.

     "W-where am I?" You asked aloud, specifically towards the person who held your shoulders. Silence was your answer. "Hello?" You turned your head to see if you could catch a glimpse of who it was. The man, well you at least assumed it was a man, was wearing a blue mask that had eerie dark holes where the eyes were along with a mysterious black goo that oozed from them. He also wore a dark blue hoodie and his hands...their skin was grey. Odd. You thought. The weird thing was that he signaled a 'Shh' sign with one of his hands then quickly letting your shoulders go before hiding under the table in the middle of the room.

     Obviously he wasn't the one who turned on the lights, and it felt like he wasn't the one who captured you either, because another man opened the door and closed it behind him. The man walked towards you, he was somewhat tall, his face could be clearly seen, and the smile on his faced proved that he was sinister. "Hello little doll~" He stated pervertly, grabbing you face. "How do you like it in here?"

"Who are you?! Let me go!"

"Ah, ah, ah! We still have a few things to do, darling. Now, lets get started." He untied you and although you tried to run, he was too fast, and he grabbed your wrist. "If you run, I'll make sure your death is quicker than planned." He glowered.

     He pushed you on top of the table and strapped you down. "LET ME GO!" You screamed as you flailed around, trying to escape. He slapped you and continued strapping you down.
Then you heard the sound of flesh being torn. "OW. SHIT! WHAT THE HE-" The man was cut off by the other stranger from under the table, who quickly slit the man's throat.

     You lied there, wide-eyed. Terrified, confused, and just plain surprised. "W-why?? W-whats going o-on?" You stuttered. The man in the mask threw the other man down, then there was a mind-rattling crack. The man on the floor was clearly dead, as you shook from fear. The blue-mask guy undid your bindings and helped you up.

"T-thanks.." You said.
"No problem, see ya around." He said, walking towards the door. "H-hey! Wait! What's your name?"

"Jack. Eyeless Jack. EJ for short. See ya, (y/n)." He then ran out the door.

You stood there stunned. "What. The. Fuck. Just happened...wait...HOW DID HE KNOW MY NAME??!?" You ran out the door to find him, only to see he that he was already gone.

You left the place you were held in and saw that you were only a few blocks from your house.

"Weird...Well I'm just gonna pretend like none of this happened." You said aloud, walking home as fast as you could and locked all your doors and windows.

After a few days, you convinced your school and manager to do online school and to work from home. You stayed in your house, refusing to leave, but you knew eventually you would have to if you wanted to get food, you were running low. As you grabbed your keys, wallet, and jacket you heard a thud coming from your room. You immediately froze. After a few moments of not hearing anything, you quietly grabbed the baseball bat that you kept next to your door and cautiously moved towards your room.

     You saw the door handle turning, making your heart beat faster; faster and louder than before. You got the bat ready to swing as the door opened to reveal a familiar blue mask and a pair of empty, black eyes. "Oh god. You scared the shit out of me...uh...Jack was it?" You said. He nodded, "Or EJ if you want. Sorry for scaring you."

"U-um..so..did you need something?" You asked, slowly putting the bat down, next to the door. "Not really, I just checking on you, beautiful. I saw that you never left your house, so I thought you were kidnapped again."

"O-oh...but I barely know you? Are you really that worried about me?" You were blushing by this point. Then you realized that he got through your window...that was locked. "H-how'd you get in here?"

"Oh...Well, I used my scalpel. Sorry, I know how to pick locks pretty well..."

"Why?"

"Well...my 'job' description basically requires it I guess."

"What job is that?"

"...You really don't want to know the answer to that."

     Not wanting to push it, you dropped the question and awkwardly stood there. "Well, I'm gonna go to the store now, I need to get more food and stuff...so..you can come if you want. But...are you gonna keep wearing that mask?" You asked. "Well, yeah." He replied. "Sorry if I ask too many questions, but why?"

"U-uh, well my face is pretty weird and stuff, so yeah..." He said, rubbing the back of his neck. "It's alright! You shouldn't have to feel insecure, you know. But, whatever is more comfortable for you I guess. Alright, let's go." You said, smiling and heading towards the door.

--EJ's POV--
     This girl is making me crazy! She's so adorable. I'm glad I saved her, I knew she was cute and nice from the start, I just...what the hell am I thinking? I'm a KILLER for cryin' out loud! I don't need to be worrying about this girl!

     ...

     Okay you know what, fuck it, I do like her. Anyways, we headed outside and got into her car. She stuck her keys in the ignition, only to find it wouldn't start. "God dammit." She whined, getting out of the car and opened the hood, peering inside. I followed her, also looking inside. "Well...I'm gonna need a jump-start." She said. I looked around to see if any of her neighbors were out and about, but everyone seemed to be gone or inside. "Well, there's nobody around...unless you wanna go knock on doors?" I said.

     She thought for a moment then decided that we should just walk instead, the store wasn't that far away and she was glad I was with her because she would have just never gone in the first place if she was alone. That made me feel happy, I was like her own body guard or something.

     We made it to the store after about 20 minutes and jeez people were just so rude sometimes. People would keep staring and give stupid remarks whenever they saw me. And I forget why I usually am out and about during the night... What confused me most about this whole situation was that (y/n) did not seem to care about what anyone thought. I felt so happy. For once, I could feel acceptance, which I haven't felt in a long time, besides from Slender and everyone else at the mansion of course.

I really do like this girl.

--3rd Person POV--
     You and EJ returned home with four bags of groceries. You sighed and set the bags on the kitchen counter and began unpacking them and placing them in their correct spots. "Thanks again, EJ. I probably wouldn't have any food left if it weren't for you." You said, as you finished putting the groceries away. "No problem, beautiful." He said. "You know I have a name...speaking of which, how did you know my name the other day? You know, when you saved my ass from that creepy guy?"
"Oh. Yeah, well...okay this is gonna sound super creepy, but I asked some people and stuff and kinda just found out about you. I saw you like three weeks ago and I just had to know your name."
"Yeah...that does sound weird. But, whatever, you seem like a nice dude." You said as you smiled.

     Then EJ's phone buzzed from his pocket. He pulled it out and checked the message. "Damn, I gotta go, (y/n). See ya around! Oh, and here." He said, handing you a piece of paper before bolting out the door.

     You stood there a bit confused. You opened the small note, which revealed a phone number. EJ's phone number to be precise. "Sweet, got his number. I really don't mind where this is going." You said to yourself while giving a small giggle.

"Well, see ya around too, EJ."

---

The next day, you woke up with a pair of pitch black eyes above your face. You screamed and immediately punched the person out of reflex. "Ow. I probably deserved that." The being said. You realized it was EJ and quickly began to apologize. "Oh jesus, sorry EJ. Oh my god, are you okay? You scared the shit outta me." You said, sitting up, rubbing your eyes. He got up from the floor and laughed. "It's alright, sorry for waking you up like that." He said.

"Wait, why were you hovering above me in the first place?" You asked. "Uh...I don't know. You're cute I guess." He said, scratching the back of his neck. You blushed. "Oh...thanks?" You didn't really know how to answer that. "W-well, I'm gonna make some food I guess." You said, getting up to go to the kitchen. "Ok." He said, following you. You opened the fridge and grabbed some stuff to eat. "You want anything?" You asked him. "You." He answered very quietly. "W-what?" You stuttered.

"Oh! Sorry, did I say that out loud?? Shit..um..."

"EJ, a-are you saying that y-you...um.." You kept stuttering.

"Yeah, fuck it, I really like you, (y/n). I basically stalked you because you're so beautiful and I just... I don't know. I'm sorry if I creeped you out and you don't have to like me back or anything."

"Y-you like me?" You were blushing like crazy now.

"Yeah. I do. But you wouldn't like me, especially since my job is to...murder people." He finally let out. "EJ. I don't care what your job is. I'm not gonna lie, I really like you too. So if you're asking me out, it's a yes." You smiled as he came over to hug you. You hugged him back.

After about a month of being with EJ, you still haven't seen his face. Heck, you haven't even kissed him yet. You were a bit ticked off, but otherwise, happy. He'd visit everyday, sometimes sleep over. Today, you were determined to get that damn mask off. You are his girlfriend, did he really think you'd leave him for a disfigured face, if it even was disfigured at all? You decided that the second he got home, you were gonna jump on his back and remove the mask.

After another hour, you heard the front door open, so you hid next to the door and jumped on EJ's back and tried grabbing the mask. "W-what the hell?!" He yelled, flipping you off his back onto the ground, about to stab you with his scalpel. You flinched, scared for your life. "S-shit, (y/n), I'm so sorry. Are you okay, beautiful?" He said, kneeling down next to you, putting his scalpel away. "Y-yeah. Sorry for scaring you." He helped you up and held you. "Please don't ever do that again." He said rubbing your back. "I'm sorry, EJ. I just want to see your face..." You said looking down on the floor. "I know it shouldn't matter, but I have to know... EJ, I would never leave you for your appearance."

He was silent for a few minutes before taking your hands and putting them on his mask. You gave him a questionable look and he nodded in reply. You slowly removed the mask, hearing his breath hitch. You revealed an attractive face, with grey-ish skin and pitch black eyes. You started blushing because he was pretty hot. "W-what? Why a-are you blushing? Is it t-that bad?" He said immediately reaching for his mask. "No! No, no, no! Keep the mask off!" You said throwing it over to the living room. "You're really cute." You said, smiling and hugging him. You looked up at him before smashing your lips against his. He immediately kissed back, quickly getting dominance over you. The taste of blood was on his lips, which kind of confused you, but you didn't care, it tasted pretty good. The kiss went from sweet to intense instantly and you both were getting pretty heated. Unfortunately the kiss had to end because the need for air was overcoming the need for kissing.

You both were breathing pretty heavily while holding each other. "You have no idea how long I've been waiting to do that." He said between breaths. You smiled. "Can I ask why your lips taste like blood?" You asked. He kinda looked away, nervous. "I'm a cannibal..." He said. "Cool, I think I might be now too...it tasted good." You confessed. He smiled and you two returned to making out, but this time EJ made it more intense by wrapping your legs around his waist and pinning you against a wall. He began kissing you on your neck and jawline, making you moan.

He kept searching for your sweet spot and when he found it, you squeaked, making him smirk. He started to suck on that spot, which is when you found out that he had sharp teeth, which made this even more pleasurable. You moaned louder and dug your nails into his back. Your face was super flushed as he gave you more and more hickeys. He kissed you up your jawline and bit your earlobe, which is when you lost it and took your legs off of him and you shoved him in your room and pushed him down on your bed, harshly. You pinned him down and it was your turn to bite his damn neck. You gave him a bunch of hickeys as well, making him moan. He flipped you over, so he was now on top of you. He returned his mouth to your sweet spot and sucked at it again, causing you to buck your hips against his. He smirked.

Let's just say, your night was very magical.

Hope you enjoyed!
