"Did you play that game I told you about?" Izzy asked. We sat on the couch her head on my shoulder as I held her.

"Of course dear."

"And?" She asked me in her usual excited tone.

"Terrified the hell outta me." She giggled sweetly at this.

"Oh? Is my big strong man scared of a faceless business man?" She asked in a mocking tone.

I let out a throaty chuckle, holding her tighter. "Are you kidding me? Of course not. As if something like that could be real."

She brushed her lips against mine. "You know I love you right?" She asked.

"I love you to." I said flustered from the simple kiss. God I was such a wuss back then.

"Sure your not scared?" She asked teasing me.

Another chuckle. "Yes I'm sure. Where did you hear about this Slenderman anyways?"

"It was this girl I met on the way back from my accounting class."

"Yea?"

"Yeah! She bumped into me spilling my coffee and she was so apologetic. She offered to buy me lunch and you know I never turn down a free lunch."

"Yea I know." I said grinning at her.

"So over lunch we learned more about each other and found we both loved all things horror. From there she asked me if I had ever heard of the slenderman. She went on telling me about him. When I got home I looked him up and found myself unable to stop researching him. He's just so damn fascinating!" She finally stopped and took a breath.

"Does this mystery girl have a name?"

"I can't really remember....I'm sure she told me."

"Well what did she look like then? I might have saw her around campus."

"She was pale and....oh yeah! She must have been foreign or something because she claimed it was natural."

"Claimed that what was natural?"

"She had the most beautiful light green hair."
