The next time I opened my eyes, I thought I was blind. The bed I lay on creaked as I moved, and there was a smell of decay. My nose twitched and I felt my stomach turn. I wanted to throw up from the stench, but before I made any sort of decision, the door on the other side of the room opened, then closed. Footsteps came closer to me, and then stopped.434Please respect copyright.PENANAyvS6rMXpdA
434Please respect copyright.PENANACTzz7HAA6V
The first words out my mouth were, "What the fuck is that smell?"434Please respect copyright.PENANAkFvOyIhene
434Please respect copyright.PENANAVOEJJgVwKm
The mattress sank as the stranger sat down. Then they chuckled. It was definitely a male.434Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8QrsxJKJa
434Please respect copyright.PENANAkAYvBQwlR3
"You're worried about the smell and not whether you'll live long enough to see the sunrise?"434Please respect copyright.PENANAgp8uJQtshM
434Please respect copyright.PENANAoOgmvDEwda
"How long have I been here?" I demanded.434Please respect copyright.PENANAPXfjalHL6l
434Please respect copyright.PENANA3Hc1Hv8AJI
"Not long," he said. "I'm still deciding what to do with you as it stands."434Please respect copyright.PENANARQlviAhjYu
434Please respect copyright.PENANA4oO3rMH71x
"But you just said you were going to kill me," I muttered angrily. I didn't want to die. But I wanted this fucker to make up his mind.434Please respect copyright.PENANAgfHcIkUb7g
434Please respect copyright.PENANAIKJmcqF2eK
"I did not say that."434Please respect copyright.PENANAxUCbcVOvXi
434Please respect copyright.PENANA1u5tB5qMwa
He moved slowly, and his hand touched my neck, his fingers curling around my windpipe. He didn't press, just tested, but I didn't move a muscle. Then he leaned forward and his lips touched mine. It was only for a few seconds, but it was enough for me to not lose myself.434Please respect copyright.PENANAA03N51x5sh
434Please respect copyright.PENANAjc7dZ1AKFk
"Why did you do that?" I asked, my voice calm, though inside I was terrified.434Please respect copyright.PENANAcTTv78acyA
434Please respect copyright.PENANARfS0BxrFwj
"Because you wanted me to do it."434Please respect copyright.PENANAl738D1utpS
434Please respect copyright.PENANAxTiw8qUE24
"How do you know that?" I said, sitting up slightly. I hated that I couldn't see his face. I wanted to know who I was talking to. Who knew this one particular secret about me. "Who are you?" I hissed.434Please respect copyright.PENANAfCMNu51ZI1
434Please respect copyright.PENANAihKVqzcefp
"Don't worry," he whispered. His hands were on either side of my body now, and he was on his knees in front of me. Again, he pressed his mouth to mine and I could taste something salty on his tongue. When he pulled away, I let out a slow breath. "You'll find out soon enough, Jared."434Please respect copyright.PENANAOQV2Ugg5S2
434Please respect copyright.PENANA5jH1erqxtk
With that, he stood up and left the room, leaving me to do nothing but stare into the darkness.434Please respect copyright.PENANAZGdnnK5TrW
434Please respect copyright.PENANARrT86k15T9
434Please respect copyright.PENANAgpMPjoAxeu
I must have fallen asleep, because when I opened my eyes again, I could see the window and the sunlight streaming through it. The rotten smell from before was gone, replaced by a fresh scent, and I could now see that the room I was in looked very much like a teenager's; there were posters plastered to the walls, a computer in the far corner, and clothes thrown on the floor.434Please respect copyright.PENANAWUc0RGzxSN
434Please respect copyright.PENANA7beO4H5xC5
"Are you comfortable?" asked a voice.434Please respect copyright.PENANAg3VrTPEsUs
434Please respect copyright.PENANAKZ471oy86z
I looked up into a part of deep blue eyes, almost sapphire, a crooked smile and dark hair. I blinked, trying to get my brain to work right, to remember that this guy, though handsome, was a kidnapper and possible killer.434Please respect copyright.PENANAr4kKm5ESUh
434Please respect copyright.PENANAZo4AGDrKEf
"I'm sorry about my rudeness last night. I'm having a hard time sleeping, you see, and I've been a little on edge."434Please respect copyright.PENANAmwriUPoMyZ
434Please respect copyright.PENANA8JUVHNmiHw
He sat down next to me and I could see that he was wearing a pair of ratty jeans and a band shirt. He wasn't facing me so I couldn't see the name on the shirt, not that it mattered.434Please respect copyright.PENANAmXBAsDg9qJ
434Please respect copyright.PENANAfxCWNeKtcM
"You're still wondering what you're doing here, aren't you?" he asked, turning his head. He was smirking at me.434Please respect copyright.PENANAh1Umv6I1AX
434Please respect copyright.PENANANH4qzK40ts
"No, I thought I'd just ignore the fact that I was fucking kidnapped." I rolled my eyes.434Please respect copyright.PENANApUIsbqB3wJ
434Please respect copyright.PENANA0eyao1lgcx
"Oh, don't do that. I'm not going to hurt you."434Please respect copyright.PENANAAFzQ8HUxA0
434Please respect copyright.PENANAiMQUeEgkl4
He moved closer to me, his arm brushed mine. I wanted to get away from him, badly, but my body wouldn't let me. In the back of my mind, I wanted to know how he knew something so personal about me, when no one else knew. I didn't really advertise my being gay, so I didn't know how he figured it out.434Please respect copyright.PENANAhnYuyWA802
434Please respect copyright.PENANAjI0YXFM45K
"Stop," I said, glaring at him.434Please respect copyright.PENANAkJA629mQAO
434Please respect copyright.PENANAVWoqv2FANU
A smile tugged at the boy's lips before he lifted his hand and wrapped his fingers in my hair. "No," he said, his voice thick with sudden anger. "I won't. That's not what you want."434Please respect copyright.PENANAm5EyAtA2br
434Please respect copyright.PENANAeXfUElDs9W
What I wanted was something I was sure he wouldn't give me anytime soon. I didn't want to be on the outside anymore.434Please respect copyright.PENANA2s2v6kIvsD
