EDITED! (A bit)

Hi, really sorry for the wait. This is neither my best chapter, nor is it the longest but it explains a lot. The edited version will be up soon

Enjoy:

Kagekao POV

"Kagekao, open up." Jeff pounded on my door. Fed up with the banging, I finally opened the door.

"What?" I said irritated

"You're brooding and Alicia didn't think you would let her. Now, what's wrong?"

"Nothing. Everything... I don't know!" I said, falling back onto my bed.

"I don't know much about women in general, let alone her, but I do know that you've never looked at anyone the way you look at her. Closing the door in her face is probably the worst thing you could have done."

"You know, if you're here to make me feel better, you're doing a crappy job."

"Just tell me what happened."

"I took her to my tree and we were having a great time and them the Puppeteer comes. Then, he almost gets her killed! Does that faze her? Nope, suddenly they're best friends swapping stories."

"So you're mad that she's talking to another dude? That's idiotic on so many levels, she talks to me." He sighed

"Not just any dude though, she's flirting with the best womanizer other than Offenderman. You I'm not too worried about"

"Kagekao, are you jealous?"

"No! It's just that I really like her. I've never met anyone like her before and I don't like being away from her. Even now, I want to go and find her to make sure she's okay."

"Still, you have no right to be jealous. She's not yours, even if she were though, I have the feeling she wouldn't like you being so controlling." Jeff said

"I know, but she's laughing and talking and smiling with you two. I want to make her laugh for once. She's beautiful and brave and scared. She's strong and won't ask for help from anyone but at the same time she's delicate. That girl is unfazed when being attacked by a monster. There's no black and white with her, she's always some sort of grey. She's the very definition of "and"!" Going over to my wardrobe, Jeff poured two glasses of wine and handed me one

"Sounds to me like you're in love Kage."he said taking a gulp

"It doesn't matter. She wouldn't want a guy like me anyway."

"If it's because of the whole cat daemon thing, I think she'll understand." He chuckled

"Jeff, I'm a freak!"

"Excuse me Mr. Self-pity, but you're not. I mauled myself and kill for fun, Laughing Jack is a deranged clown that murders kids, Slenderman's no better, The Puppeteer takes people over, Eyeless Jack eats organs. Please tell me how you are stranger than them." He scolded

"I'm a 化け猫, a yokai!" I yelled, sitting up

"English please?"

"I turn into a cat when I'm stressed" I sighed, praying that I wouldn't suddenly change in front of the wide mouthed numbskull who just gulped my good wine.

"Wow, no wonder you drink so much." Jeff said finishing off his own glass "And you know, if she ever found out, I have a feeling she'd find it a little cute." He said before exiting my room.

'Why do I care so much anyway?' I thought 'She's loud, rude, annoying, violent, impulsive, kind, funny...' I stopped myself. 'No, stop it!' My brain was screaming at itself. Sipping the last of my own wine I gave up. Stretching out on my bed, I let sleep take over.

"Hey Kage," Alicia said from above me. Looking up I saw her in a flowing white sundress as she lay in the tree branch above me.

"Hi," I smiled up at her when I realized my mask was off. Quickly I tried to cover my face. Suddenly I heard her scream, moving my fingers from my eyes I watched her fall from the branch into a concrete floor.

"You could have saved me." A voice whispered in my ear. Jumping to her, I held her mangled form in my arms and shut my eyes tightly.

"Thank you for understanding." She said before backing up. I was in the living room when I next opened my eyes to see her in jeans ant a t-shirt as she clasped hands with the Puppeteer

"She's made her choice, better luck next time buddy." He shot a wink my way and I knew he would break her heart before actually ripping it out of her chest. I felt a sharp pain shoot through my chest as I knelt to the floor.

"Why? Why would you save me?" I saw Alicia crying, in the light, flowy dress once more. This time it was covered in blood, my blood. Looking down, I saw a knife in my chest

"Because...I love you. I will always love you." I whispered before blackness took over.

My eyes shot open.

"I love her..." I whispered to myself. The pain in my heart took time to subside as I lay in bed staring at the ceiling

"I love her."
