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.482Please respect copyright.PENANApTx9wEoGj1
482Please respect copyright.PENANAn8694WjaRr
The first words out my mouth were, "What the fuck is that smell?"482Please respect copyright.PENANAKJkEYdSDS9
482Please respect copyright.PENANA6MYn1HpS0I
The mattress sank as the stranger sat down. Then they chuckled. It was definitely a male.482Please respect copyright.PENANAQDninWMjb7
482Please respect copyright.PENANAUvf3E4BPJK
"You're worried about the smell and not whether you'll live long enough to see the sunrise?"482Please respect copyright.PENANAiUt5RtNcIV
482Please respect copyright.PENANAj6ebPZPB5V
"How long have I been here?" I demanded.482Please respect copyright.PENANAtA7t8bPym3
482Please respect copyright.PENANA3tAEyJJPjJ
"Not long," he said. "I'm still deciding what to do with you as it stands."482Please respect copyright.PENANAzfsWhXOUbs
482Please respect copyright.PENANAYW8cS1VbsT
"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.482Please respect copyright.PENANA1GsOYnKThg
482Please respect copyright.PENANAKSnwpTtXqj
"I did not say that."482Please respect copyright.PENANAy4O9JrFJGR
482Please respect copyright.PENANAJEZyocd6Wk
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.482Please respect copyright.PENANALJRuRUhvon
482Please respect copyright.PENANA7lRg2JolgF
"Why did you do that?" I asked, my voice calm, though inside I was terrified.482Please respect copyright.PENANAV8XBjyRqmo
482Please respect copyright.PENANAfFvJgDLrOw
"Because you wanted me to do it."482Please respect copyright.PENANANfZ7xmVKGp
482Please respect copyright.PENANAm17YMgpFYF
"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.482Please respect copyright.PENANAHWBtXm4IAh
482Please respect copyright.PENANAV4zr40Yu2E
"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."482Please respect copyright.PENANA5kn6QxN4Gx
482Please respect copyright.PENANA1pNf7n55o5
With that, he stood up and left the room, leaving me to do nothing but stare into the darkness.482Please respect copyright.PENANAoczkjgWrOO
482Please respect copyright.PENANAAoCiPSoDaP
482Please respect copyright.PENANAy3GcHKK0R3
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.482Please respect copyright.PENANAoGEdSnr96E
482Please respect copyright.PENANAhinNzeINKO
"Are you comfortable?" asked a voice.482Please respect copyright.PENANAAVjgSAFrwD
482Please respect copyright.PENANA5tr4gpuY4x
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.482Please respect copyright.PENANAtWyVwrmBVV
482Please respect copyright.PENANALG2XNAwpf2
"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."482Please respect copyright.PENANAe4I7o8yXhm
482Please respect copyright.PENANA9uaoY79rQD
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.482Please respect copyright.PENANA3YjX6viAct
482Please respect copyright.PENANAdEOJVNBqxC
"You're still wondering what you're doing here, aren't you?" he asked, turning his head. He was smirking at me.482Please respect copyright.PENANAn8F4hFcEUW
482Please respect copyright.PENANAXY34J5mO5T
"No, I thought I'd just ignore the fact that I was fucking kidnapped." I rolled my eyes.482Please respect copyright.PENANAgUC2pwoCml
482Please respect copyright.PENANA77OfWnhgTm
"Oh, don't do that. I'm not going to hurt you."482Please respect copyright.PENANAZWebKRePh7
482Please respect copyright.PENANAORv6pW7Svx
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.482Please respect copyright.PENANATcchYPw52v
482Please respect copyright.PENANAiqxTpqB8N5
"Stop," I said, glaring at him.482Please respect copyright.PENANAzZcfoHhnrB
482Please respect copyright.PENANAukgkJeXf7S
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."482Please respect copyright.PENANAsTufRyJoZ1
482Please respect copyright.PENANADzkCWfYEtf
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.482Please respect copyright.PENANATK75kvLdvo
