"Well, welcome to my home."

I spread my arms and encourage him to look around, which he gladly does along side me guiding him.

"If you ever need a place to stay, you're always welcome to stay in the guest room that's right cross the hall from my room."

Jeff nodded.

"Thanks, (Y/N)."

"No problem."

.,~+*+~,. Readers POV.,~+*+~,.

"Hey, (Y/N)!"

Jeff's voice could barely be heard from upstairs.

"Yeah?"

I was finishing up making dinner since Jeff said he hadn't had a chance to get a bite to eat.

"Could I spend the night?"

Jeff came down the stairs with a begging face.

Should I let him?

I internally argued with myself on the concept.

How the hell am I going to win?

Or as a matter of fact, how will I lose?

Finally, I just decided to allow it.

"Yeah sure, whatever."

I walk over to my couch and plot down returning to the movie I had put on.

I reached my hands towards the popcorn ceiling and yawned covering my mouth with my right hand only to be proper.

I open the mini fridge coffee table that sat in front of my knees pulling out a (f/f(favorite flavor)) monster.

I opened the can and hear that satisfying sound of carbonation being released, taking a long sip of the energy drink.

I turn around about to ask Jeff if he wanted any refreshments but only found myself looking face to well...face I suppose with a tall slender figure wearing a black tuxedo; it had long eldritch appendages; the most terrifying feature was one it hadn't sustained, no face.

"Who are you?"

I took a deep breath and persisted tranquil; the figure didn't progress from its current locality.

All that could be apprehended was that of a static television or radio station, white noise if you must.

The sound grew deafening as the tranquility of the room grew tremendously.

I reached my right hand into my hoodie pocket grasping the wooden kitchen knife handle, as I strenuously awaited any form of fluctuation, none came.

After what felt like an eternity, the figure spoke in a booming voice, "Hello my child, I see as though my torture articulate has failed to turn you amidst; I'm impressed, you're quite robust. How would you like to form a modest bargain?"

"What in particular did you have in mind?"
