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.370Please respect copyright.PENANALi4Wlp8zgi
370Please respect copyright.PENANA0k6w0YhOEz
The first words out my mouth were, "What the fuck is that smell?"370Please respect copyright.PENANAH5zpVY4Ank
370Please respect copyright.PENANAk5Z05KYQE4
The mattress sank as the stranger sat down. Then they chuckled. It was definitely a male.370Please respect copyright.PENANAD2vUga8zyr
370Please respect copyright.PENANAdEwTm0Qxfg
"You're worried about the smell and not whether you'll live long enough to see the sunrise?"370Please respect copyright.PENANAd40DEGSsbD
370Please respect copyright.PENANABnn2Cpckud
"How long have I been here?" I demanded.370Please respect copyright.PENANA4rtlPVfMmi
370Please respect copyright.PENANA7ws5J6ftuL
"Not long," he said. "I'm still deciding what to do with you as it stands."370Please respect copyright.PENANAKERsUeQiIq
370Please respect copyright.PENANAFbksnfrowB
"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.370Please respect copyright.PENANAvobo1OMJtC
370Please respect copyright.PENANAhreDcVQtTp
"I did not say that."370Please respect copyright.PENANAsrVMeEVAE9
370Please respect copyright.PENANALsFf1ktR6I
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.370Please respect copyright.PENANAnGNKus6arG
370Please respect copyright.PENANAhxiWV2yKXt
"Why did you do that?" I asked, my voice calm, though inside I was terrified.370Please respect copyright.PENANAzEwYfT2law
370Please respect copyright.PENANAV6lPIdI0Gm
"Because you wanted me to do it."370Please respect copyright.PENANA38aw8ktdal
370Please respect copyright.PENANAf594WKNA1Z
"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.370Please respect copyright.PENANATd60Q6tCxM
370Please respect copyright.PENANAk0Gw1FZRH6
"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."370Please respect copyright.PENANA9ERajHbiY2
370Please respect copyright.PENANAyulkRUcy6n
With that, he stood up and left the room, leaving me to do nothing but stare into the darkness.370Please respect copyright.PENANA7lpQrrqs5X

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.370Please respect copyright.PENANAlpKMTO3wdP
370Please respect copyright.PENANAa1QQE1GL4x
"Are you comfortable?" asked a voice.370Please respect copyright.PENANA0S3xKPcg5b
370Please respect copyright.PENANA7a51M2NYrx
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.370Please respect copyright.PENANAyj5In7Xxyh
370Please respect copyright.PENANA68ZVsrMItq
"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."370Please respect copyright.PENANAqvVYgfnT6V
370Please respect copyright.PENANAAoA2ZryBjY
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.370Please respect copyright.PENANA0VVyZeQk3i
370Please respect copyright.PENANAvuHyCxqHn0
"You're still wondering what you're doing here, aren't you?" he asked, turning his head. He was smirking at me.370Please respect copyright.PENANAJpsLNggLLJ
370Please respect copyright.PENANAI1HD5JE4ff
"No, I thought I'd just ignore the fact that I was fucking kidnapped." I rolled my eyes.370Please respect copyright.PENANAMtTHNXnu1Q
370Please respect copyright.PENANAAQTaef7qNO
"Oh, don't do that. I'm not going to hurt you."370Please respect copyright.PENANA3Pp8O7H49N
370Please respect copyright.PENANAkyGuWBo2Kc
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.370Please respect copyright.PENANAPtJCfL2HO6
370Please respect copyright.PENANAxZvv5uIRCO
"Stop," I said, glaring at him.370Please respect copyright.PENANA04GhyHGJqL
370Please respect copyright.PENANAtrwy1Cro9M
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."370Please respect copyright.PENANAZh4A4BTXRP
370Please respect copyright.PENANADZcUTGPJFE
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.370Please respect copyright.PENANAlTjKCE3fnn
