Chapter Thirty-Five

I woke up the next morning with my head against Jeff's chest. His deep snoring revealed that he was still asleep. I smile slightly at the memories of last night clouding my thoughts. I slightly pull away from Jeff, just enough to slip his arm off of me, and then sit up, keeping the blanket pulled up around my chest. I look back to Jeff and smile at how peaceful he looks. I go to slide off the bed and I hear Jeff groan from behind me. 

"Where are you going?" He asks, voice groggy. I smile. 

"Just to go take a shower," I say quietly. Jeff groans again but rolls over. I laugh, grab clothes and head to the bathroom. 

I turn on the water in the shower and wait for it to warm up. Just as I'm walking in, Jeff walks into the bathroom and smiles as he looks at me up and down. I blush heavily and try to cover myself. That just makes him laugh. 

"Nothing I haven't already seen..." Jeff says as he stretches. I blush more. 

"what are you doing?" I ask quickly. Jeff looks at me confused. 

"Taking a shower with you. Duh." He says and drops his boxers to the floor and walks toward me. I glance down and my face goes tomato red. He laughs hard as he steps past me into the shower. He turns, his back to the water as he runs his hands through his now wet hair. "Coming?" He asks. I hesitate a few seconds before stepping into the shower myself. He switches me places, letting me stand in the water. 

As I wet my hair down, Jeff stands in front of me and smiles, looking down at my body. I hit him playfully with my loofa sponge. 

"Keep your eyes to yourself!" I say playfully. Jeff laughs and leans down and kisses me. At first, it's slowly, but then he starts getting more aggressive as he pushes me against the shower wall...

After our shower, Jeff and I quickly get dressed and head downstairs for breakfast. Everyone seems to be flooding into the dining room at the same time. Jeff sits to my right, and to my left, Ben sits. I smile up at him. He slightly laughs, but I try to ignore it. That's when Jack sits across from me and then Iris next to him. I try not to give her attention and just smile at Jack. Jack slightly chuckles too. What is going on?

Food gets passed around to everyone and we all begin eating, that is until Jack looks up at Jeff. 

"So uh, Jeff. You guys do anything fun last night? Any hunting?" Jack says. A smirk grows a little on his face. I give him a confused look. Jeff looks up at him, seeming just as confused. 

"Uh. No, not really much. Just kinda hung around..." Jeff says, awkwardly. Last night's ACTUAL events make me blush. That's when Ben now speaks up. 

"Really? Nothing fun at all? Sure sounded like it..." Ben mumbles and chuckles. Jack looks like he's holding in laughter. I look between them confused. 

"What...?" Jeff mumbles, looking back and forth between them as well. Ben looks at Jack. 

"~Oh Jeff!! It's soooo good Jeff! Harder!--" Ben begins to say in a girly tone before he and Jack completely bust out in laughter, and so do some other people at the table. My face begins to blush at what they were referring to. I look down. 

Jeff smiles and laughs himself and then looks down at me. 

"Guess we weren't so quiet after all..." Jeff says and then laughs louder with everyone else. I look up again and I can already feel how red I am from embarrassment. I try to chuckle along but I am really mortified. 

The laughing dies down a few minutes later after a few more jokes were made. I look at Jack, and next to him I can't help but notice the stare Iris is giving me. Our eyes meet and she gives me a sad, almost apologetic look. Anger builds inside of me, but I decide to try and ignore it as I look back to Jeff. He looks down at me and smiles. I stand and take our plates, as well as a few other people's plates, to the kitchen for Slender.

In the afternoon, Jeff and I decided to go killing for about an hour. More for him than me. As we get back into the house, we pass Iris and I notice her quick glances at me again. STill that same apologetic look. This makes annoyance build up inside of me again. 

We get up to my room and Jeff sits on the corner of my bed. I stand in front of him. 

"Wanna take a small nap?" Jeff asks as he kisses my hand. "Or maybe some other stuff..." Jeff mumbles off. I chuckle only slightly, still annoyed. 

"Let's just nap..." I say quietly and take off my shoes. Jeff grabs my hand and looks at me, concern in his eyes. 

"Hey what's wrong...?" Jeff asks. "Did I do something? You have been weird since breakfast. Did I do something or..." Jeff finishes. I shake my head. 

"No that's not it... Well, I don't know. It's still that stuff with Iris." I say quickly. Jeff sighs slightly. 

"What happened Mist?" He asks, serious. I hesitate for a few seconds and then sigh. 

"Just... When she came in here... She told me that you were lying pretty much about everything. And that  She isn't Zalgo created, that you founded her." I explain. I see Jeff's eyes narrow. "She also mentioned that you actually killed Jane like a year ago and that u have this huge plan and..." I continue to tell him all the stuff that Iris told me. "I don't know... She has just been trouble since she got here and I figured you should know about these lyes she is telling." I finish my rant. Jeff stares at the ground for a few moments. "Jeff...?" I ask quietly. He takes a deep breath and sighs. 

"Well... I really just wanted a relaxing day today..." Jeff begins slowly and then looks at me, his eyes dead of all emotion. 

"Huh...?" 

"She really just couldn't keep her mouth shut. Could she?"
