Ashlynn's P.O.V

*prom night*  

I can't believe Max didn't ask me to prom. I Sighed as laid down my dress on the bed I have like 4 hours before the prom. I stared down at my dress.

"Ashlynn. Ashlynn. Ashlynn. Ashlynn." Ember said poking me.

"What." I hate when people poke me.

"We need to get our hair done." She says dragging me down my hallway. "We only have 4 hours."

"Ok ok."

It seemed like we were speeding down the highway but she was only going 100mph. It takes one hour to get to the place where the people do our hair. I don't know what it's called...

Max's P.O.V

"Dude!" My new friend James said hitting my shoulder. "It's prom night and you don't have a date."

"Or right it's prom night."

"Let's go get a tux."

Of course right? I'm always wearing a tuxedo. you know slender man.

"Ok." I got up and we drove to the store.

Ashlynn's P.O.V

"Ahh!" Ember screams. "We only have one hour to do our makeup!"

"Ok. ok calm down. don't rush or you're going to turn ugly."

"Ok." She takes a couple of deep breaths and we start putting our makeup on.

After almost 40 minutes we finished our makeup.

I slipped on my dress and my wedges and walked out.

"You look amazing," Ember says.

"Aww really? Thanks. You too."

"Thanks. Come on we only have like 10minutes to get to the prom.

A horn of a car sounded outside.

I peeked out the window. "Oh. My. God."

"What?" Ember asks. She sneaked beside me and looked out the window. There were Max and James aka Embers boyfriend. Standing in front of a huge white limo.

She squeals and runs outside. I shake my head and follow her.

"Oh, I forgot to ask," Max says. "Ashlynn Johnson, would you like to go to prom with me?" He holds out his hand.

"Love to." I take his hand and he opens the door to the limo.

••••

"WOULD YOU LIKE TO DANCE!?" Max screams at me.

"WHAT!? THE MUSIC IS TO LOUD!"

"WOULD YOU LIKE TO DANCE!?"

I nod my head. "SURE!"

Max's P.O.V

I clutched my stomach.

"Max are you okay?" Ashlynn asks.

"I'll be right back." I rush to the bathroom.

"You know that Jingx you killed?" The guy in the bathroom stall said.

I made a confused face.

"She didn't put the 'slender man' curse on you. I did."

"What?"

"I did." He walks out of the stall.

"Umm, what's the slender man?"

"Don't try and trick me you know that won't happen." He chuckles. "I can make you do everything. Even kill the people you love. No one has ever beat me in my own game."

"What game?"

"You need to figure it out."

"What? You won't do that to me. Will you?"

"Of course I would. You dumb head."

He starts moving his hand really weirdly like a fish out of water. Then I suddenly turn into the slender man.

"What the- What are you doing?" I say worriedly.

"And make you stay the slender man forever."

No.
