June could hear the sound of her heart beat. She fluttered her eyes open, her vision was a blur. She could make out the color of white, & black. June's vision slowly return, she could see that she was in a different place; she was in a king-size bed with black bed sheets, posters of bands, & horror movies were hanging all over the walls, a book shelf, one desk, & a dresser with a half broken mirror.

June slowly got up with a huge headache. Then she saw Jeff sitting on a chair next to the bed; he was polishing his knife. Fear crept back into her body, Jeff turned a pale face, & smiled his forever smile. "Finally you're awake." He said as he put the knife on his dresser, grabbed a glass of water, & handed it to her. "Here, drink this. You need some water in your system or you're gonna pass out."

"Is he saying that I'm weak?!" June thought to herself. June has pride against being weak, she even hated the thought of being weak. She felt the strength coming back to her legs, she got out of bed like it was no big deal, then stood in front of Jeff with her hands to her hips. "I don't need your pity or water as you can before you. I can manage to stan-" But then her legs gave out, her body was light as a feather. She saw the floor coming at her, but she didn't hit it, she turned her face toward Jeff who held her close to his chest. Both faces flushed pure red, but Jeff snapped out of it, & carefully brought her back to the bed.

"You & your foolish pride." Jeff said laughing. June glared at him. Suddenly the door creaked open, then a pair of white long fingers. Then long arms, long legs, long torso, & what feared June the most was the faceless face. Her heart pounded against her chest like a beating drum; sweat fell from her forehead, she couldn't move, June felt like she was paralyzed from the faceless man's stare.

"This has to be a dream... There's no way that I'm looking at the Slenderman in the face, & not being killed instantly." June told herself. Jeff sat in the chair & said.

"June, this is my boss, the Slenderman." June still couldn't move, she was more terrified then before all of this awakening thing happen last night. Her heart felt was beating so fast, she felt like she could pass out or die from a heart-attack.

"That man... No... That thing... I-I can't move... I... I'm afraid... I have to get away!"

"June! Snap out of it child! You have nothing to fear. You are of no value to me dead." Slenderman said, his voice was much deeper then Lord Zalgo's, & yet it had a softer side in it.

"W-wait! How do you know my name?! Oh! And for the record being of 'no value to you dead' DOESN'T MAKE ME FEEL ANY SAFER." June said. Slenderman stared at me for a moment to see how terrified June was, but June could make out his expression to see that he was a bit sad for some reason.

"So you really don't remember me... do you?" Slenderman asked. June arched her eye-brows, & said.

"The only thing I remember is that YOU'RE the Slenderman. A video game that give people nightmares for weeks on end. How are you REAL?!... Or am I just going mad?" June said as she set down on the bed; Slenderman looked over at Jeff & said.

"Jeff, can you give us a moment? There's something I would like to speak with Ms. Alastar here, alone." Jeff huffed in annoyance, & left the room. June actually wanted Jeff to stay in the room so she wouldn't have to be in the same room with the Slenderman. Slenderman walked up closer to the bed, set on the chair, & just stared at June. He sighed. "June, do you remember. Even the tiniest sliver of ANY memory of your's of me being your best friend?"
