I Don't Mind the Rain Anymore- Jason Voorhees x Reader

Chapter twenty nine: Angela (2)

After leaving Angela to finish her entry, Blake set out their food and waited. There was also a cupcake in the fridge, but he wanted it to be a surprise.

"I'm here, I'm here."

She hurried to the table moments later, sitting in front of him at her place.

"Finally."

She rolled her eyes and said a quick prayer before diving in. No matter how much she bickered with Blake, meals were always their time to reconnect and not be mad. Comfortable silences even. Not that they'd admit it to anyone.

After the indulging was completed, she smiled and said her thanks. But before getting up to do the dishes he stopped her.

"Hey wait, sit down." He said, pushing her back down.

"What gives? You know I have to be out of sight before they get home." She frowned, glancing at the clock on the wall.

"I know, but it's your birthday Ange." He went on, getting up to open the fridge.

"And?" Shrugging, she didn't understand. "Not like anybody cares."

"I care."

Lighting the candle on the counter were she couldn't see, she tried peeking over his shoulder.

"Not my problem, and you're being weird tonight." Straining her neck to see, he smiled with the lit candle on the single cupcake in his palm.

"Yeah well don't get used to it."

"Blake!!" Ignoring him she made a sound that could replica dog whistle. Wouldn't surprise him if the neighborhoods dogs started barking.

"What was that sound even Ange, jeez my ears!" Holding the one ear he could with his free hand she laughed.

"Sorry, I got excited. But is that for me?" Pointing at the dessert he nodded.

He placed it in front of her, letting go of his head.

"Yeah, so make a wish or whatever, nerd."

"You're the nerd." She restored quickly but regretted it. "But thanks."

He grinned again but she was already squeezing her eyes closed and her hands so tightly together that her knuckled turned white. She quickly made her wish.

"I wish we could be in a happy family together."

Opening her eyes she blew out the candle and cheered along when Blake shouted  "Alright!" 

Chomping down the cupcake she gave half to Blake who happily accepted and ate in one bite.

But all cheerfulness died down once the sound of keys made the room deathly quiet. She held her breath in response, somehow thinking that would make her invisible but Blake had other plans. 

"Come on!" He harshly scream whispered and started cleaning up with as much speed as he possibly could. There wasn't much to pick up, but he needed them out of there. And fast.

Tossing mostly everything in the garbage bin, he was never so thankful for that shitty door lock in the world than at this moment.

"Dammit! Open, you stupid fucking door!" His Mother cursed and kicked outside the front door, when it didn't open.

That bought them just enough time as he grabbed Angela's wrist and practically yanked her off her feet into their room, slamming their door behind them.

"Pretend you're asleep!" He continued to hiss at her, throwing the large quilt over her head as she desperately crawled into bed.

Heart ramming against her chest, under the heavy blanket, she stilled; her breathing being the only think she could hear. That is until the door flew open.

With a large bang, it practically came off it's hinges, the dent in the wall from previous door problems taking more damage.

There stood their Mother, enraged and smelling like she drenched herself in alcohol. The pungent stench was too strong to handle. Blake held back a cough, and smiled weakly at her.

"Y-yes?" He asked, feigning innocence and praying she was too inebriated to noticed the quiver in his voice.

Hobbling from one foot to the other she pointed at him.
"Feed me now."

When he didn't follow right away he could've sworn he saw red in her eyes. That thought alone was enough to hurry him along.

As he cooked, she downed the beer cans that were in the fridge. Cowering lower when she threw the empty can at him, he stayed hunched over, focusing intently at the food in the pan.

"That wasss yer faa-therss drinkss." She slurred, faking a laugh as she crumbled another can, missing the trash can when she threw it.

"He doesn't care about me at allll." Holding her face in her hands, tear started to swell out. She wailed and thrashed about like a toddler would.

Blake was silently still serving the food.

Once more, at no response to her drunken rants, she started to scream. He flinched and dropped the wooden spoon, making her scream more.

Angela was still hiding under her blanket, but from what she could remember hearing through her own sobs was just broken yelling.

"Don't touch-"

"You're just like your father-"

"I hate you!"

"It's all your fault I-"


"Where is she-"

Through the crashing of plates, and shrieking and crying, it was all a nightmared blur. Singing a song that Blake always did to cheer her up, as she plugged her ears, was something she was used to. But it kept getting worse and worse. Day after day. The curses were meaner, the words cut deeper, and the insults hurt more. Their Mother was more vocal, as their Father just didn't even care to come home. They didn't know what was worse. Each day was hell on earth and they took to it as regular life. That is, until the morning they left for camp. 

Angela wasn't the sharpest but her bad habit of forgiving her mother and believing that one day she'd go back to normal was really just her living in denial. But when she brought home that flier, it made her heart soar. 

"Maybe she feels bad?" She told herself while they packed.

"Could she actually though?" She thought again, fighting an internal battle with herself on the ride over.

Though this was the last chance she gave her Mother, it went down the drain as she soon stood next to her brother, watching her speeding car leave them behind.

Feeling her heart shatter, her stomach hurting from emotion, she told herself she didn't need anybody else. As much as she wanted her family to be normal, she felt so useless and disheartened, only being a young girl with no power to fix such a big mess.

Blake squeezed her hand and she squeezed back.

"Hello there!" They turned to the owner of the voice. A short, rounder young woman came towards them with the brightest smile they had ever seen.

"I'm Y/n, L/n, what are your names?"

"Blake and Angela." Her brother said, releasing her hand and shoving it in his short pockets.

"Well, it's nice to meet you both. Let's go meet the others okay?" The lady said, offering her own hand to her.

Hesitantly reaching for it, she nodded.

"Alright."

Returning to where he left the little girl, Jason entered the room, something clutched in his hand.

He found her sleeping peacefully, so he tucked the teddy bear he had retrieved next to her. She stirred and snuggled into the plush. Jason smiled and gently laid a blanket he got from the other couch over her resting form.

She must've been tired.

He didn't want to leave her by herself again so he sat on the free sofa as to not disturb her.

Wondering how Y/n was doing with Blake, he twirled his machete ill at ease.
