You reached the house and there was an awkward silence lingering in the air.
"...thank you for-""No." he interrupted "I don't want your thanks. I don't even care"
"I'm sorry." you mutter as he walked off
'can he not take a thank you from me? Do they all hate me that much or is it just a Masky thing?'
You head upstairs to Liu's room and vowed you wouldn't leave until he returned tonight.
When you opened the door you saw a figure standing beside his desk, his back facing you."Uh-"
He quickly turned to face you, acknowledging your presence.
It was Ej
"I'm sorry I didn't know it was you at first, you scared me"
He didn't say anything. His eerie blue mask staring you down.
"Is everything okay?" You tried to be careful with your words. He doesn't appear to be doing well."Shut the door" he stated bluntly turning back around to root through the drawers.
You did as you were, hesitantly grabbing the door and pushing it shut whilst keeping your eyes on him."Why are you here? I thought you wouldn't be back until tonight"
"I just...needed something...I was trying to avoid you"
"What? Why?"
Then he went still, too still.
You gasped, quickly backing up against the door as he briskly walks towards you, he banged his fist on the door right next to your head and caged you in.
'Why is he so angry all of a sudden?!'"What do you want?!" You exclaim in shock and anger.
"I'm suffering." he grunted as he lowered his head near your shoulder, he was almost leaning on it.
"You don't need to threaten me I can help, just tell me- holy shit! Ej your shoulder! You got shot?!"
He seemed confused for a moment as you were no longer shocked or angry, just concerned.
The surprise weirdly snapped him out of his funk.
"Yeah" he muttered standing up straight.
"it's...fine.""What if you bleed out?! Does it not hurt?" You trace your finger around the edge of the wound not wanting to cause pain.
"I'm fine. A small thing like this will be gone in a week" he nudged you to the side as he swung the door open and left the room. Once again he disappeared as quick as he was there.
You shut the door again and locked it, sitting on the bed thinking back about what just happened. However, you quickly snap out of your thoughts as you felt your phone vibrate in your pocket.
"Hey Liu" you answered standing back up "I've been waiting for you to call""Hey, I'm sorry things aren't going well...we might be late tonight or even arrive tomorrow"
"But Liu, i don't think I can be here any longer...Masky hates me even more than before and EJ was just mad at me-"
"Wait- jack spoke to you?" Liu interrupted
"He was shot Liu, what the hell are you guys doing out there?"
"He had to go home and give himself first aid...he knows he shouldn't go near you when he's injured..."
"Liu...When you say you guys go out to do
things'...does that mean, you're killing people?"There was no reply for a moment keeping you in suspense
"Yes"
You felt my heart drop at the image of your only best friend taking someone's life.
"Just...please come back soon..." you express your worry's to him before you end the call. You felt empty at the thought and it wouldn't leave your head.
EJ POV
"Shit" he muttered as he stumbled through the hallway
"Jack?" Masky came out of his room "what the hell are you doing here?"
"It turned out my victim had a hand gun under their pillow" He gritted gripping his shoulder "the bullet went straight through...it'd just let it heal on its own but with the girl here, I need to treat it otherwise I'll be..."
"Sadistic...freaky...angry...insane... even more than you already are? I know"
"Its probably best that I'm not like that for the whole week" Jack told him "I was so close to tearing her apart not long ago"
"You almost attacked her?" He asked as they made their way to Masky's bathroom
"I went into Liu's room to find materials i needed for stitches since I couldn't find any in my own bathroom..." Jack pulled out a needle and thin thread out of his pocket and handed them to Masky.
"What happened?" He asked as Jack sat on the edge of the bath tub
"Nothing, she just walked into Liu's room...when I saw her...the pain...the twist..." Masky knelt in front of jack as he explained
"I caged her in... I was going to consume every inch of her... ready to just, snap. We both knew she was scared, but she was shaking her anger more.""Of course she was" Masky sighed
"I pulled the scalpel out, I was about to gut her" he confessed "But then she did something" he continued as he slid of his jacket.
"What?" Masky looked up at him concerned
"She asked if I was okay"
"What?" He asked confused
"No matter how scared or angry she was at my outburst" Jack took off his shirt revealing his toned yet dark scarred skin "She instantly threw it away and asked if I needed any help... it snapped me out of it" he continued to tell him as Masky dealt with his wound.
"Normal people are weird" Masky stated "gunshots as small as that are a big deal to them"
"I don't get why she got so concerned for me considering how I acted towards her prior to that"
"As I said normal people are weird...just forget about it they're all the same"
"Thanks for the help... it's good seeing you calm again"
"I was fine before we had a normie living in the damn place..." he growled
"Things are going a bit haywire...we may not be back tonight" he informed
"Leaving me with her for even longer...it's like you're tempting me to kill her" he sighed growing tired.
