I'll protect you (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 4

...Thaddeus, do you remember your childhood? he questioned.

"My childhood? Not really, I try blocking it out as much as I can," I answered.

Even the good memories? he then asked.

"...I don't think I had any good memories," I laughed, coming to a stop as we reached my houses back yard.

Thaddeus... he says, as I looked up at him, No matter how bad a situation gets, I will not let that be the reason for my downfall, I will live on...

"...Downfall..." I repeated. These words sound so familiar to me. Where did I hear these words before? A small headache began to form on my head as I thought hard. I rubbed my fingers on the temples of my head. Damn it! It's going to bother me so much if I don't remember who said these words!

I'll make sure no one will hurt you again, Thaddeus, he assured before hunching over and putting his hand on my cheek. I'll watch over you from now on my kitten, I'll see you soon...

"Kitten? W-wait!" I said before he could disappear away or something. "What's your name, or what can I call you?"

Call me by my man given name, he said before disappearing in thin air once again. ...Slender man...

"Slender... man," I repeated, looking around my yard. I wonder where he disappears off to.

"Slender man is this tall creature in a suit with no face. He likes to stalk after little kids and takes them away forever! But watch out, if you take one of his treasured pieces of paper he'll come get ya!" Carlos words echoed in my head.

"...He... doesn't seem at all like a bad guy though," I said before heading inside my house. "I'm home!" I yelled to no one. Anna and Dad wont be home in a few hours.

Gerald P.O.V.

"Ahhh!" I shouted, sitting up and crawling back until my back hit the wall. "Damn it!" I cursed, hunching over. My back was screaming in pain, like it's all bruised up or something! I looked at my surroundings, where am I? "I'm home?" I questioned, noticing the familiar posters, the flat screen TV, and the scattered laundry all over the floor. I was in my room. "What the fuck happened?" I questioned myself as I grabbed my phone from my pocket and dialed Jose's number.

"Hnng hello?" Jose groaned on the line.

"Jose, what happened?" I asked as I got off of the bed and headed towards the bathroom.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean where the hell are you guys and how did I get home?"

"I don't really know dude, I just woke up,"

"Really? You don't remember anything?" I asked, lifting my shirt up and turning to look at my back's reflection in the mirror. I gasped as I looked at the giant purple, green-ish, bruise forming on my back.

"...Well... never mind, it was probably a dream," Jose laughed.

"Tell me," I ordered, pulling my shirt back down.

"Fine... I remember a tall guy, with no face, choking me and growling some shit like don't touch my child,"

"Did he wear a suit?"

"A suit?"

"Yes a suit!"

"Yeah... he did! Did you see him to?"

"Yeah I did, he slammed me against the tree and now I have a damn bruise,"

"Really? Oh my god, what do we do? Is Zack and Rob okay? DO YOU THINK THEIR DEAD?!" he panicked, I can hear him hyperventilating on the other line.

"They're not dead idiot, if it didn't kill us then it didn't kill them," I reasoned as I sat at my desks chair and flipped open my laptop.

"But what was it?!" he shouted on my ear. "Was it Slender man?!"

"Slender Man?" I thought for a second. He did have the appearance of Slender man, not to mention he also had tentacles.

"Yeah him, you never heard of Slender man?"

"Of course I have you idiot," I growled, typing down said creatures name on the search bar.

"What do we do? We have to tell someone!"

"And say what? Oh we were attacked by a fictional creature while we, ourselves, were trying to attack Thaddeus, oh please help us? Oh yeah, like we wont be sent to a mental hospital, or prison,"

"Then what the fuck do you think we should do?"

"Simple," I smiled from ear to ear, "We fight fire with fire."
