Chapter 21: Christmas (P.3)

Splendy opens the door. I smile, walking over to him.

"Were you practicing the ballroom dance?" Splendy asks. I nod, blushing.

"Well, you better get to your boyfriend. He is waiting. The ballroom dance is about to start. Have fun!" Splendy calls as I run into the room. BEN is nowhere in sight. I sigh, sitting into a chair.

Couples start spinning around the room. Some reluctant, other bored, most enjoying it. Everyone is on the dance floor. Minus me, BEN, and the Slenderbrothers.

I sigh, leaning in my chair. I wonder where BEN is. Slenderman enters my view. I sigh again.

"Hey, Slendy." I greet, lifting my hand.

How are you? Where is BEN? Slender asks. I sigh, leaning my head on my hand.

"No clue." I answer. Slender looks concerned.

Did you practice your dancing? He asks. I smile up at him.

"Yeah, hey. Who is dancing with Sally?" I ask.

No one. She is with her teddy bear at the refreshments table. Why? Slender asks. I stand up, walking past him. I extend my hand to Sally.

"May I have this dance?" I ask in a fake posh accent.

"Of course." She answers in a better posh accent, taking my hand. I take her hands and she stands on my feet. I pull her around the dance floor, perfectly rehearsing my practice. She giggles everytime I spin her.

I trip on something after Sally pushes me. I look at her confused. She giggles, running off. I move to follow but a white calloused hand is shoved in my face. I look up. Mom had his hand extending. I raise my eyebrow, skeptically.

"May I have this dance?" He asks. I roll my eyes, talking his hand.

He pulls me off the ground, talking the lead. When we switch partners, I end up with Dad.

"Hi, Dad." I greet. He chuckles, leading me around. "Did you bring any kidneys?"

"No, they confiscated my stash. I hope you got enough." He answers.

"I'll be fine. Why are you, Mom and Sally acting weird?" I ask.

"What do you mean?" He asks. I shrug it off.

"Nevermind." I answer. He leads me around before I trip. I fall right into someone's arms. I look up. BEN stands over me, holding my waist.

"Looks like you are falling for me." BEN flirts. I roll my eyes. BEN sets his drink down.

"What is that?" I ask. BEN shrugs.

"Eggnog." He answers shortly, pulling me up.

"Wasn't that spiked?" I ask. BEN shrugs.

"It didn't taste spiked. Let's dance." Ben answers, pulling me out. He leads me around.

I stare gently at his face, examining every inch. His eyes are hypnotizing. He pulls me outside. I shake my head.

"Hey, where are we going?" I ask. He doesn't answer, just pulls me through the snow.

He stops at a cliff. Off the edge, is a vast view. It's beautiful. I almost fall over at the sight. Rose petals are spread around in the snow. I turn to look up at BEN. He holds a white rose and a black rose out to me. I take them, holding them gently in front of me.

BEN bends down to one knee. My eyes widen. He grabs my hands.

"Now, I'm not very good at these things. So, I'm just going to ask. Will you, (Y/N), be my girlfriend?" BEN asks. My widen and I step back.

"BEN, I, uh, don't know what to say." I whisper. He cheekily smiles.

"How about 'yes'?" He asks. I smile.

"Yes." I answer. He smiles, jumping up. He wraps his arms around me, clamping my arms to my sides. I fall off balance, sliding on the snow. I fall over the cliff, taking BEN with me.

My eyes widen. I grab BEN's hand. I sprout my claw, digging my claw into the side of the cliff. I pull myself up, swinging BEN over onto the ground.

My claw looses grip and I fall. I roll down the cliff's side.

I gasp, opening my eyes. I throw myself into a sitting position. I seethe, gripping my ribs. I look down, lifting my shirt. Under are layers of bandages. I get a strong urge to murder.

"Well, this is great. I get a boyfriend then I fall of a cliff. I want to go fucking killing!" I yell angrily. I throw myself off the bed, standing up.

I look around. I have a broken arm, a few cracked ribs, a twisted ankle. That's it, other than small scratches and cuts.

"It's not that bad." I compromise. I look over at the bed. It is soaked in blood. I'm so confused. I hear voices outside my door. I crack it open gently.

"She's in a coma. I have no clue when she will wake up." Dad tells Mom, BEN, and Slender. I open the door, stepping out.

"Who's in a coma?" I ask. Everyone turns to look at me. Suddenly, I feel multiple arms around me. I cough, blood enters my hand. "What's wrong?"

"You should be dead!" Dad yells. I look at him, confused.

"How?" I ask.

"You had a log going straight through your abdomen. A hole that goes through your body." Dad explains. I look at him, confused.

"I don't know what you are talking about. All I have are some broken ribs." I explain, lifting my shirt. The bandage is completely white.

"How is that possible?" Dad asks. I shrug.

"I feel like I've been to Hell and back." I explain, holding my head.

"You are back just in time! It's Christmas!" BEN shouts, grabbing my hands. He drags me downstairs.
