Broken - (Reader X BEN Drowned)

Dark 13

Chapter 13

        I put my game cartridge up on the top shelf in my room. I run downstairs to my kitchen and look around to make sure nothing has been touched. Spotless. I make myself a quick snack and turn on some TV. It was 6:30 am. I haven't gotten any sleep except for the two hours at the mansion. I start to feel my eyelids close on me, and eventually, they did.

                                                                                                                        BEN's POV

        Slender calls for me downstairs. I go into his office and see him waiting patiently for me to sit down. 

"I need you to take {Y/N} somewhere that is not here." Slender says, "But do not let her go back to her home."

        I nod and exit the room, sighing. Why am I her babysitter all of a sudden? I walk up to her room and see that her bed is empty. Slender must have taken her to that room in the basement. I walk out of her room and start for the steps as I think of something. 'I know where to take her!' I run to my room and get out one of my games, not looking to see which one it was and run down the steps. As I reach the room that she was in, I take the same that was in my pocket and throw it at her. She was sucked into the game and I picked it up, knowing that her life is now literally in my hands. I head back into my room and put the game on my bed and look through my other games, knowing that I can't go back to bed now. I take a game and run downstairs again to hook it up to the living room TV. I accidentally trip down the stairs and the game slips out of my hands, making me go into the game. I hit my head on a dirt road and see soldiers run passes me, only to be shot by the enemies. I'm in Black Ops 2.. Cool.

        I play for what seemed like hours before I thought it was time for me to leave the game. As I was about to go back to the mansion, I see my teammate camping a corner, AFK. I shoot him in the head before leaving. "No camping, bruh."

        I jump out of the game, getting ready to land on the steps that the game fell on. Instead, I fall on Slender's desk and he looks at me.

"I told you not to let her go back home." He growls at me.

"I didn't! I put her into a game and then I accidentally went into a game myself." I say back like it's no big deal.

"What game??" He demands me to respond.

"Uh, actually I don't know." I say quietly, remembering that I just picked it up.

"YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU PUT HER IN?" He yells at me.

"I can find out, it's on my bed!" I say, hope in my voice.

        

        Slender ignored me and stood up, towering above me and turned his computer monitor so I could see. {Y/N} was asleep on her couch. 'Oh no.. Slender is going to kill me.' I think to myself, forgetting he can read minds.

"This is your fault for putting me in charge." I say accusingly.

"What!? I thought you would take more care of your jobs, especially this one!" He seethed.

"Sorry, sorry, but what's so important about her? Why are you protecting her?" I ask him.

        It's not like I don't care about her. I mean. I don't but I do. Hard to put in words I guess. If she's with me and the 'family', I don't care what she does. But if some other guy is with her that I don't know, I would want to stab him. Just 'cause..

"Don't let her get caught. Protect her. Only make her come back when she is ready to." Slender says more calmly, "Understand?"

        I nodded knowing that this girl is a lot more trouble than it's worth. Why me? Can't Jeff do— uh, never mind. Jeff seems a bit off after what happened. Well, maybe we can rant about our problems together.

        I leave Slender's office and head to Jeff's room. I reach his door and knock. "Hey Jeff! Guess what Slender told me to do." I say through the door's crack. "He told me I am allowed to stalk a girl."

"BENJAMIN!" Slender roared from below.

"Okay okay.. He told me I had to watch {Y/N}, but that's pretty much the same thing!" I say again. "Jeff?" I call out to him. I run out of patience and open his door. He's not here. Where did he go?

                                                                                 {Y/N}'s POV

        I wake up from my couch and see that I have left the TV on all night. There goes the electricity bill.. I walk upstairs to take a shower when I hear something-no, someone.. I turn around to see who it is, but it goes quiet again. I enter my room and hear the noise again. It's coming from my closet! I run over to see what was going on, hoping that it wasn't a mouse. 

Close, not a mouse, an elf. 

        Dark Link smiles at me while holding up my underwear and bra. "A little small, aren't ya?" He says.

"Wtf." I take the nearest thing which happened to be a hanger and threw it at him. He dodged it and laughed. " 'I'm only kidding with you.' " He quotes me. 

        I roll my eyes as he sets them down and picks up the hanger. "Are you sure your supposed to be here?" He asks me.

"I don't know, but I want to be here." I say back to him.

"I just think that if they brought you to the mansion- and haven't killed you yet- that it was for a reason. Now, I don't know Slen—" I cut him off, "Please, don't try to make me go back there. It was purely a coincidence that I ended up there." I say to him.

        Dark looks into my eyes for a moment and backs down. Only to start it up again.

"Look, I think bringing you here was a bad idea, HEY! Let's go back together!" He says with a smile.

"I said no, Dark." I lash out at him.

"I am only trying to help, {Y/N}" Dark says while wincing. 

"Don't. You have helped me once and I owe you, but that's it." I say harshly. I feel bad for talking to him like this, but I want him to leave. I want to forget everything that happened recently. He looks at me and a painful sense of regret rises inside of me. I was rude. I need to apologize..

"That's right. You do owe me." He says with no expression. All emotion gone from his voice.

"Why don't you go play with Link." I say in a mean sarcastic tone. Dark's face contorts into anger.

"I will!" He yells back at me, until realizing what he said. "I mean, I, Uh."

        I get my clothes and go into the bathroom to take a shower. 'I can't believe I made him mad.' I think as I let the warm water hit my body. 'What have I become..?'
