"(Y/n)...! You're finally back...!" A familiar voice cheered happily, snapping you out of your thoughts and causing you to jump a little. Oh right, you agreed to date someone else too. Billy.

"Welcome back, (Y/n)." Stu greeted straight afterwards, his pleasant tone and calm attitude making you feel slightly less awkward.

You were about to greet them back, but you suddenly got pulled into an overly-possessive bear hug, a softhearted smile spreading across your face when you recognised the person responsible. Michael. "It's nice to see you too, Michael. I missed you." You kindly commented, wrapping your arms around his body in return before looking at the others. "How has everyone been...? Everyone okay...?"

"Th...ey're...f-uh...ine..." Jason cut in coldly, flashing the other three slashers a glare before tugging you away from Michael. "S-uh...ee...? Th...ey've...ju...st-uh...b-uh...een...sta...nd-uh...ing-uh...here...wai...t-uh...ing-uh...for-uh...y-uh...ou...th...is-uh...en...tire...t-uh...ime..." [A/N: "They're fine..." "See...? They've just...been standing here...waiting for you...this entire time..."]

"Hey! You don't speak for us." Stu sharply snapped back, gritting his teeth while he took a step forwards. "So back the FUCK off, mate."

"Guys, please..." You sighed with an embarrassed expression, not wanting the four slashers to start a fight over your casual inquiry. "It was a simple question. There's no need for this."

"Besides, we know ALL about you, Voorhees." Billy insulted him spitefully, smirking at the Crystal Lake Killer and taking Stu's side. "After all, WE'RE not the one who injured (Y/n)'s friends, now ARE we~? WE'RE not the ones who caused them to remain in hospital for a certain amount of time and therefore hurt (Y/n)~"

"Th...ey-uh...Th...ey-uh...tre...spas...sed-uh...!" Jason angrily retaliated, shoving Billy to the ground and growing furious once again. "S-uh...oh...S-uh...oh...SH...UT-UH...UP-UH...!" [A/N: "They...trespassed...!" "So...So SHUT UP...!"]

"ᒍᑌᔕT IGᑎOᖇE TᕼEᗰ. I ᗪO. ᗩᖇE YOᑌ OK? ᕼOᗯ ᗩᖇE YOᑌ ᖴEEᒪIᑎG?<3" Michael wrote down comfortingly, passing his notepad over to you as soon as possible and making you feel somewhat better. [A/N: "JUST IGNORE THEM. I DO. ARE YOU OK? HOW ARE YOU FEELING?<3"]

"I'm feeling fine. So there's no need to worry about me." You responded tenderly, appreciating the fact that Michael was thinking about you right off the bat and trying to calm you down no matter what.

"Jeez, you're such a JERK...!" Billy bursted out in frustration, losing the last of his composure and beginning to twitch. "Always RUINING everything...! Don't you realise how (Y/n) visiting you today could've possibly ruined—"

"Billy, that's enough." Stu soothed his friend gently, placing his hand on the other male's shoulder and sending him a calming smile. "We still have time, remember? That's why we agreed to come here in the first place. For (Y/n), right...?"

"For (Y/n)..." Billy moodily muttered, his voice dripping with dislike whilst he carried on staring at Jason with the utmost of hate.

"You've been waiting this entire time with Michael...? Whatever for...?" You asked blankly, your eyes widening with surprise as confusion clouded your face and forced you to become unbelievably bewildered.

"We...Well, we have a surprise for you." Stu adoringly told you, clasping one of your hands between both of his before giving it a light squeeze. "Me and Billy. We thought it might give you a bit of a...a bit of a breather."

"A surprise...? Really...?" You echoed gleefully, gratitude washing throughout your gaze and making you feel extremely excited. "Thank you so much...! That's just so, so sweet of you guys...! Ooh, I can't wait...! Is it far from here...? What does it look like...? Oh wait, it's a surprise, that means you can't tell me, now doesn't it...?"

Your softhearted enthusiasm calmed the frustrated slasher right down; him and Stu both sharing a look of amusement as the two of them showed you a very loving smile. "You're far too cute sometimes." Billy teased mischievously, hugging you from the side and causing your cheeks to flush a faint pink. "But you're right, it's a secret~"

"It wouldn't be a surprise if we told you~" Stu playfully commented, moving back and pressing his front finger against his lips as a sign of secrecy.

"True, true." You giggled, muffling your laughter before turning around to face Jason real fast. "Remember what I said: "I'll be back before you know it," m'kay...? Love you."

"Th...is-uh...supr...ise...b-uh...et...ter-uh...no...t-uh...hu...rt-uh...her-uh...G-uh...ot-uh...it...?" Jason warned them defensively, narrowing his eyes while sounding insanely unstable. [A/N: "This surprise...better not hurt her...Got it...?"]

"Understood." Stu answered sternly, replying for Billy as well, due to the fact that Jason's warning had caused Billy to almost explode once again.

Worried, you glanced towards Michael - praying that he wasn't annoyed also - but the silent male merely nodded shortly, behaving just as stern as Stu had. "Hey...! I'm sure the surprise will be just fine...!" You nervously argued, looking at Billy and Stu for the slightest bit of back-up or support. "Won't it...?"

"Of course it will."
"You have our word." Billy and Stu promised in unison, their tone of voices flowing with warmth whilst they joined your side instead of glaring at Jason and picking a fight.

"Lo...ve...y-uh...ou...too..." Jason quietly spoke back; resenting the others as he engulfed you in yet another anxious cuddle. "Be...s-uh...afe...th...en-uh...oh...kay...?" [A/N: "Love you too..." "Be safe then...okay...?"]

"I will. Take care, Jason." After saying goodbye politely, you picked up your bag that you'd left by the sign and slung it carefully over your shoulder; waving at the Crystal Lake Killer a few seconds later and walking through the woods with everyone else.

"So is this surprise a far walk...? Am I allowed to know...?" You casually wondered, grasping the strap of your backpack with one hand before holding Michael's hand with the other.

Billy and Stu weren't too happy with the handholding, but it kept the mute male from losing his temper, so...whatever. "I suppose you're allowed to know~" Stu chuckled, finding your request to be rather funny in the end. "What do you think, Billy~?"

"Mmm...I guess~" Billy hummed deviously, staying next to your side like glue as Michael stuck to the opposite side of you. Guess the three of them wanting to be this close to you couldn't be helped. "It's not that far. I'd say...around five-to-ten minutes if most~"

"R-Really...!?" You stammered with a shocked face, stunned by Billy's answer and therefore quickening your pace. "That close...!?"

"What, you thought we'd force you go on a journey and drive, or somethin'...?" Stu devilishly grinned, nudging the same side of you that Billy was walking next to and sticking his tongue out immediately after his lighthearted joke.

"No, no, no...! Not at all...! All I meant was—"
"We know, we know. Cutie~" Billy cooed flirtatiously, your surprise increasing by the minute after you'd left the woods surrounding Camp Crystal Lake and deviated from your usual path back to the slashers' house by the outskirts of the city.

"I...I don't understand. What's my surprise doing in the middle of the city...?" You questioned with a puzzled frown, curiosity swirling around your eyes while your bemusement grew stronger. "Is it something like ice cream in the park...?"

"While that would be nice, I'm afraid not. Soz, (Y/n)." Chuckling a second time, Stu shook his head and continued grinning; crossing the street with you three before raising his finger at one house in particular. "Our surprise is hopefully better than ice cream in the park~" Looking at the house his finger was pointing towards, your shock rocketed through the roof; a loud gasp slipping through your lips whilst your body froze and you couldn't move.

No...There was no way...Were they having a laugh...? Were they...Were they making fun of you...!? This couldn't be true. This couldn't be right.

...Could it...?
