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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspZ0RfBBXW

The first words out my mouth were, "What the fuck is that smell?"453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUsdsHZYQy

The mattress sank as the stranger sat down. Then they chuckled. It was definitely a male.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDnygORNAL

"You're worried about the smell and not whether you'll live long enough to see the sunrise?"453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnhWCqKbv1
453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3Dc2REjzx
"How long have I been here?" I demanded.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEB1nXAbKj
453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZdU0slyQ0
"Not long," he said. "I'm still deciding what to do with you as it stands."453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXRXP2mOgv

"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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr8uXtWrCH

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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4F7cJgbaMB
453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTc4nXA6iK
"Why did you do that?" I asked, my voice calm, though inside I was terrified.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWfjSE0d6l
453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2keA3tbjS
"Because you wanted me to do it."453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5UM7Er9NX

"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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG1HGoNeGL

"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."453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04MjHt6tL8

With that, he stood up and left the room, leaving me to do nothing but stare into the darkness.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9Re5DyoOo

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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMe1lm3IgnH
453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9NV2hu7el
"Are you comfortable?" asked a voice.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6FQvVC2xA

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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD4aAZ43Og

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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22WK2d0fPL

"You're still wondering what you're doing here, aren't you?" he asked, turning his head. He was smirking at me.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtETRJMWuX
453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkpixlP8mi
"No, I thought I'd just ignore the fact that I was fucking kidnapped." I rolled my eyes.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf8diQjExa

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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dVAEqkRau
453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JurlpQP1w
"Stop," I said, glaring at him.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlCPmqmYIq

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."453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrN9EsqdM4

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.453Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL6bInbC2J
