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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAocSjfalYfG
488Please respect copyright.PENANAqSsNCNjYRG
The first words out my mouth were, "What the fuck is that smell?"488Please respect copyright.PENANA6zOUuSl4DI
488Please respect copyright.PENANAo8ZzGiOn46
The mattress sank as the stranger sat down. Then they chuckled. It was definitely a male.488Please respect copyright.PENANA575aV89KdG
488Please respect copyright.PENANAVhxSGz148b
"You're worried about the smell and not whether you'll live long enough to see the sunrise?"488Please respect copyright.PENANABYUAwhaz1Q
488Please respect copyright.PENANAfmLowSGCVs
"How long have I been here?" I demanded.488Please respect copyright.PENANAlKp9uHxooz
488Please respect copyright.PENANA4vRzXRPgf9
"Not long," he said. "I'm still deciding what to do with you as it stands."488Please respect copyright.PENANAco28c9dHVR
488Please respect copyright.PENANALp3Bts3aBD
"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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAraDwzVAdpA
488Please respect copyright.PENANAe3Y9o1wAMJ
"I did not say that."488Please respect copyright.PENANAuFcu7Eld41
488Please respect copyright.PENANANZy9ioXW8n
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAB55HiYGKnD
488Please respect copyright.PENANAaWnYMHnnWH
"Why did you do that?" I asked, my voice calm, though inside I was terrified.488Please respect copyright.PENANA0WUvPOnjJY
488Please respect copyright.PENANAkCYSUrenza
"Because you wanted me to do it."488Please respect copyright.PENANAM4uT7wf5DJ
488Please respect copyright.PENANAr1c4IeXmhP
"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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAkrhWe2x2ac
488Please respect copyright.PENANAfdSX49cNmt
"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."488Please respect copyright.PENANAc1pAHNFJZQ
488Please respect copyright.PENANAVCGAuIeRNL
With that, he stood up and left the room, leaving me to do nothing but stare into the darkness.488Please respect copyright.PENANAlLXMVMkYd3
488Please respect copyright.PENANAV2R2RS1frr
488Please respect copyright.PENANAPezwgwGtem
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAzPqQPc0OUl
488Please respect copyright.PENANAWSYhbOo2oP
"Are you comfortable?" asked a voice.488Please respect copyright.PENANA4EgyGyDPRw
488Please respect copyright.PENANAN9orhI8wVS
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAV4txDRO80o
488Please respect copyright.PENANAyjvpbpXJNc
"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."488Please respect copyright.PENANA0xNpr3kzFu
488Please respect copyright.PENANADHj1vuZDez
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAtDDYLsYsBK
488Please respect copyright.PENANAPpZptVx0qt
"You're still wondering what you're doing here, aren't you?" he asked, turning his head. He was smirking at me.488Please respect copyright.PENANALkKJ3e0Dxs
488Please respect copyright.PENANAp3XKoVwJVw
"No, I thought I'd just ignore the fact that I was fucking kidnapped." I rolled my eyes.488Please respect copyright.PENANA0mb62iMzme
488Please respect copyright.PENANARsgJVudlfd
"Oh, don't do that. I'm not going to hurt you."488Please respect copyright.PENANAdn9JxkX6hL
488Please respect copyright.PENANAZUyjyPlK1m
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANA8suABzfhkI
488Please respect copyright.PENANAC4Y6JYazhx
"Stop," I said, glaring at him.488Please respect copyright.PENANAutA6SLQU2Z
488Please respect copyright.PENANAKvMCcoRqLa
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."488Please respect copyright.PENANAqDxHuhNnOi
488Please respect copyright.PENANAACyb8eGzK9
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAmu2QNvdZHF
