Jimmy Hall x Reader - The Window Washer

Chapter 4 - Hugo's Lust

We stared into each others eyes for a while, and it was amazing.

Amazing, until I saw a flash of Hugo in Jimmy's eyes.

I gasped and stepped back.

"Y/n!? Are you alright!?"

He said, stepping forward.

"I-I saw a vision of Hugo. In your eyes"

He stepped back as well.

"He's getting to you too, isn't he? Try to block him out as much as you can"

He said, putting his hands on my shoulders.

I nodded.

My gaze was averted when I saw more lights flicker, but worse than usual.

"Do you notice th--"

I went to say, but stopped myself as the power was cut.

"oh my god."

I whispered, slightly panicking.

"Jimmy?"

I whispered again.

"Yeah?"

I sighed in relief as I hugged him for safety.

He heard my sigh of relief and said,

"Don't worry, Y/n. I won't let anything hurt you"

He wrapped his arms around me yet again, and I felt safe. 

I felt comfortable.

I felt relaxed.

Then, after a short minute of thinking, I got tense.

What if Hugo takes over Jimmy while he's clutching onto me?

What if Hugo hurts me while he's in control?

I tapped Jimmy on the back and whispered,

"Jimmy?"

No response.

"Jimmy?"

I had an aching feeling.

I let go of the hug, but he didn't let go.

"J-jimmy?"

I said, nervousness quaking in my voice.

Jimmy started to laugh.

"I'm not Jimmy, Y/n. . . At least, not anymore"

I froze in place. His arms were still around me, his arms tightening around me.

"Is it. . .Hugo?"

I felt him lean down and whisper in my ear.

"Yes"

I was screaming internally, and I tried to come up with a plan to escape, but I just stayed put.

"You are a very wonderful woman, Y/n. Jimmy needs you. I need you"

One of his hands went up to my face, but I don't know how he could see it in this darkness.

As if on cue, the lights came on, and I saw his uncovered head and his vestless body.

"H-Hugo. . .I. . ."

I stood still, frozen in place.

He cupped my cheek and kissed my forehead.

It sent shivers down my spine.

He eventually let go and said,

"Let me tell you a secret. There are ghosts in this hotel. Talk to them. Find out their story. Figure out my past, Y/n. After that, there will be nothing to hide between us. Then we can finally be together, you and I"
