A/N: I made this minimalist vector art picture based on the cover image for Chapter 2. This chapter involves A LOT of conversation between both you and Jacklyn so consider it character development.

Enjoy!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Y/N's POV)

Shocked at Jacklyn's somewhat bold request while still keeping my composure, I react in a more calm behavior.

Y/N: What do you mean you want to spend time with me? Weren't you just threatening to hurt me even worse kill me for running through this area a few minutes ago?

Shuffling in her boots while rubbing her right arm, she remained quiet for a minute yet I'm still holding her suspicious about what she said earlier. What exactly would she know about him?

And once again just by looking at her...

WHEN WAS SHE SUDDENLY SO NERVOUS?!?!?

Its like she's some lost child who remembers not to go with strangers

Only she's REALLY trying to follow me for some reason......

Y/N: Before we go any further, you should take off that mask before you go anywhere without someone assuming you murder people for a living

I only managed to get a grip on the bottom part before...

Jacklyn: N-n-no stop! I need this!

Y/N: What?!

Jacklyn: I-I need this mask b-because I don't like people l-looking at my face!

Y/N: .........

Y/N: Do you have a scar or like burn marks under those bangs on the left side of your face? (Her left not your left) Or are you just self conscious about how you look?

Jacklyn: M-might as well be! Everyone always made fun of me! They said I was the ugliest girl in existence!

As of this moment I just stood in confusion. Not really focusing on the ugly part since I didn't see anything ugly about her. Its mostly how fast she changed from having so little care about anything besides getting the answers she wanted, to clear emotional stress and what seemed like mental suffering like she saw something traumatizing.

Y/N: (Still trying to take the mask) Jacklyn!

Jacklyn: No don't take it off! Please I don't want to take it off!

Y/N: Jackie!

Odd enough after saying that she seemed to have relaxed a bit while still holding my hand on top of her mask.

Jacklyn: D-did y-you just call me J-Jackie?

Y/N: I'm sorry I jus----

Jacklyn: NO! *loosens grip on hand* I-I m-mean you don't have to say sorry. I l-like that name.

Y/N: (Internally facepalming) Fine then. Jackie, why exactly do you feel like you should be called ugly? I mean I like how your face looks. You have nice blue eyes, I like the hairstyle and I'm honestly kinda self conscious now since you CLEARLY have way more muscle than me.

Before I can get any response she's quickly takes her mask and covers her face.

Y/N: What's wrong now? Did I make it awkward? I'm sorry I didn't mean to just bombard you with things like that. I'm just being honest here since I sorta stand by a code that at times its best to be honest with how you feel towards whatever/whoever it is.

(Jacklyn's POV)

Why is he so nice to me?!?!

He said I have nice eyes and he likes my hair!

He even pointed out how well in shape I am without sounding like a pervert.

Most guys who spot me before noticing the machete or the blood just use the same lines which often just relate to

"Oh how amazing I am at sex I'll make you scream my name until morning"

or

"You look so sexy in that small sports bra and those tight jeans yet you seem lonely looking so fine by yourself."

or if they're feeling lucky....

"You don't mind my friends just to keep you company?"

And that's why I often want to do two things:

1. Immobilize the bold one as he watches me hunt and kill his friends then probably showing his last buddy's lifeless head in front of his face before slowly impaling his lungs.

or to add a little interest into the mix

2. Kill the guy who (in his position) literally flirted his life away and let everyone else run knowing they'd most likely be hiding looking for weapons or something hoping it kills me.

Its fun watching their terrified faces as I show how pointless it is. Yet it only reminds me how I can't do anything else since I have a curse keeping me from dying or at least staying dead without needing to get up and pull things out of my body. All I really do is stay here in this camp.....but with Y/N maybe he can show me something!

Hes the great grand son of Will L/N!

Meaning hes just as special to me only Will died now so I have to protect Y/N from ANY danger.

I'll make sure to stay by him for now.

After going over my ideas I forgot (clearly) about how embarrassing it felt to be called such nice things by Y/N.

He's so nice.......why?

After hearing his apology it only made me more curious in wanting to know why he hasn't tried any moves yet.

Y/N: Jacklyn?

Jacklyn: Why are you so nice to me?

Y/N: Huh?

Jacklyn: Why after all of this, after everything I've done to you and yet you stand here not trying to run from me even when I'm not holding my axe or my machete in your face anymore.

Y/N: Well, originally I already assumed maybe I was in the wrong since I felt I was trespassing. I still tried going through mostly hoping I can just get home quicker without receiving punishment for being late which being my main point for even ending up here in the first place.

Y/N: Even if you did "almost" take my life a few times now (notices Jacklyn rubbing her arm again) I just didn't want you to get the wrong idea for me ever being here. (Looks at the ground while walking) Generally I don't feel like I want to nor do I really need to talk unless I need to or someone tries talking to me. I'm not fond of trying to sound nice only because of the scenario in front of me I just do it because I do. (Turns around) Anyway......

Jacklyn: So you don't just say nice things to get something out of it?

Y/N: No I don't. I prefer if we're having a conversation then lets just have a normal talk without only coming to ask for stuff and instead talk about life or how everything is going for you or crack a joke here and there about something you saw or heard of a while back.

(Y/N's POV)

Without even noticing, I saw how I had managed to walk my way back to the place before my encounter with Jacklyn. Making a left after coming to the turn, I was now on the path I normally take back home considering how its gonna take a whole hour. Jeez.

I still knew Jacklyn was behind resulting in a halt.

Y/N: Jackie.......

Jacklyn: Yes?

Y/N: I still don't know much about you. I do recall your weapons so I'm guessing you probably do a lot to hurt people.

She looks down for a few seconds before looking back up at me with a serious face.

Jacklyn: I kill people who come to Crystal Lake Camp Y/N. (Sees his shocked expression) Yes........I'm a murderer who takes the lives of teenagers who come by. I just.........everything before was always just people making fun of me because of my face. Then I decided to stay there after my mother was murdered by teens leaving me....(grips machete) to find her headless body beside where her head appeared to be.

She spent years at this place just killing due to witnessing her mother dying right in front of her by somebody else's hands.

Before then her life didn't seem any joyful after getting picked on so much...

And she's following me out of interest so now I don't have a choice.

Y/N: *Sighs* Well then if you're plan for "spending time with me" involves following me back home then so-

Jacklyn: I want to learn about the things you do elsewhere since you haven't been to the camp before and I'm sure you're now familiar with what happens there whenever people do come.

Y/N: Well I'm heading home since I should be anyways now again remembering that my roommate is probably either asleep long before now or she's probably pissed at me still awake...... you didn't by chance run into her did you?

Jacklyn: I didn't run into anybody else at the camp yesterday so luckily for her I haven't.

Y/N: Phew. Well then maybe once we find a place for you to hide the axe and machete she could let you stay at the house for a while. You do know nobody walks around with knives and axes right?

Jacklyn: ........I guess this is a start if we're going to be around each other for a while.

Without my knowledge......

I failed to notice the smile on her face as she said that before turning around continuing the walk home.

Jacklyn: *in mind* I'll now get to spend time with you.........Y/N.
