"Hey, Jason...?" You called his name awkwardly, shifting from foot-to-foot as he turned to face you; the child-minded killer tilting his head like a cute little kid while he waited for you to continue speaking.

"It's um...well, it's time for me to go now." You brought up the touchy subject timidly, knowing it would set him off to some degree.

And you were right; the slasher shaking his head and releasing a sound of fury. "N-uh...oh...! N-uh...oh...!" He stamped on the floor with clenched fists - his vicious temper flaring up and unsettling you a little bit. "Y-uh...ou...'r-uh...e...N-uh...Oh...T-uh...g-uh...oi...ng-uh...any-uh...w-uh...her-uh...e...!" [A/N: "No! No!" "You're NOT going anywhere!"]

"You heard the promise I made to Hannibal, Norman and Michael." You reminded Jason with a sigh, trying to make him recall the earlier events and see reason. "Remember? I told them I'd be back by early evening."

"N-uh...oh...t-uh...f-uh...air-uh...! N-uh...oh...t-uh...f-uh...air-uh...!" Tears welled up in the killer's eyes and you panicked - deliberating on what you should say. [A/N: "Not fair! Not fair!"]

"Don't worry, I've visit again real soon!" You assured him in alarm, wrapping your arms around his body and pulling him into a soft hug of your own. "Like real, real soon. So soon you won't even notice how long it was!"

"R-uh...R-uh...eal...ly-uh...?" Jason looked at you with a sad gaze, grasping your shoulders before hiding his face atop one of them. [A/N: "Really...?"]

"Mmhm! In fact," You paused for a split second to move away and hold his shoulders instead, reaching up to delicately kiss the male on the cheek. "That's a promise. It means that I'll be back before you know it."

Thankfully for you, that little peck on the side of his face caused Jason to brighten up considerably; the hockey-masked killer's eyes now glimmering with glee. "Th-uh...an-uh...k-uh...y-uh...ou...! Th-uh...an-uh...k-uh...y-uh...ou...!" He exclaimed excitedly, flinging his arms around you and cuddling you as close as he could. [A/N: "Thank you! Thank you!"]

"No problem." You rubbed the sides of his arms comfortingly; relieved that he'd now completely changed his mindset. "But I really do have to leave now, Jason."

"Oh...k-uh...ay-uh..." Jason responded in a slightly disappointed tone, letting go and releasing you from said hug. "I...l-uh...ov-uh...e...y-uh...ou...(Y/n)..." [A/N: "Okay..." "I love you (Y/n)."]

"I..." You hesitated for a moment, a faint shade of pink colouring your cheeks whilst you questioned on what to say back. Should you...? "...I love you too. I-I'll see you around...!"

"T-uh...T-uh...ak-uh...e...c-uh...ar-uh...e...oh...f-uh...y-uh...ou...r-uh...s-uh...el...f-uh..." Jason told you protectively, both of you exiting the cabin before he engulfed you in one last embrace. [A/N: "Take care of yourself."]

"You take care of yourself too." You patted his back and then broke away, flashing him an honest and warm smile as you began to walk away from the camp.

After waving, you left Camp Crystal Lake entirely and started making your way back to your supposed home, exhaustion washing through your body while you stifled a tiny yawn. Despite Jason's random and bizarre mood swings, you'd actually rather enjoyed yourself at Camp Crystal Lake; happy that the time you spent with him was relatively normal. Sure, he thought like a child from time-to-time, but that didn't bother you. Not really. You were just grateful you hadn't gotten caught up in the hit-and-miss reverse-harem drama so far. At least...not yet. In an hour though—
