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.321Please respect copyright.PENANAwCgYxZ1z3P
321Please respect copyright.PENANA087VEq1OuW
The first words out my mouth were, "What the fuck is that smell?"321Please respect copyright.PENANAabTMeqjFkV
321Please respect copyright.PENANAqmmD4yd5JC
The mattress sank as the stranger sat down. Then they chuckled. It was definitely a male.321Please respect copyright.PENANAYJwlX8kmk2
321Please respect copyright.PENANAuDulIZuZKm
"You're worried about the smell and not whether you'll live long enough to see the sunrise?"321Please respect copyright.PENANA0OtZQNIYUR
321Please respect copyright.PENANAa7fjkhv2PA
"How long have I been here?" I demanded.321Please respect copyright.PENANAaE48dTvHUX
321Please respect copyright.PENANAtqEGJUyjx4
"Not long," he said. "I'm still deciding what to do with you as it stands."321Please respect copyright.PENANARqN0MazKdQ
321Please respect copyright.PENANAzahPgA268w
"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.321Please respect copyright.PENANAUwExtrX1Yt
321Please respect copyright.PENANAoOXnmf6VPb
"I did not say that."321Please respect copyright.PENANAUrVLVBDXvK
321Please respect copyright.PENANAKo0vdF3cf9
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.321Please respect copyright.PENANA3kZXbunZwK
321Please respect copyright.PENANAG2zmmlbtcS
"Why did you do that?" I asked, my voice calm, though inside I was terrified.321Please respect copyright.PENANAKiKh5EDZA8
321Please respect copyright.PENANAAQfDvHhClT
"Because you wanted me to do it."321Please respect copyright.PENANA7eH6r67jDa
321Please respect copyright.PENANArbHlGgHYYp
"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.321Please respect copyright.PENANAA2Exb6FGln
321Please respect copyright.PENANAbw1EvdcZ4v
"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."321Please respect copyright.PENANAeI0fwxyubV
321Please respect copyright.PENANA8ty42bl9wJ
With that, he stood up and left the room, leaving me to do nothing but stare into the darkness.321Please respect copyright.PENANAyQQwvo0JwE

321Please respect copyright.PENANAji4bn1YRSP
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.321Please respect copyright.PENANAZF2OQCSLkd
321Please respect copyright.PENANA00sT3khUog
"Are you comfortable?" asked a voice.321Please respect copyright.PENANAHFtLlYgULJ
321Please respect copyright.PENANAP3zZSNCzQS
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.321Please respect copyright.PENANAkaxZPMQ8FI
321Please respect copyright.PENANAYgt6xyPx9L
"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."321Please respect copyright.PENANAkJ5bY8VuAD
321Please respect copyright.PENANApUG8tUz72Q
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.321Please respect copyright.PENANA4X3W4B025E
321Please respect copyright.PENANAecSJpidZAx
"You're still wondering what you're doing here, aren't you?" he asked, turning his head. He was smirking at me.321Please respect copyright.PENANARSwDQOGJ92
321Please respect copyright.PENANAewHz8vUhCF
"No, I thought I'd just ignore the fact that I was fucking kidnapped." I rolled my eyes.321Please respect copyright.PENANA0jYFxPJzQs
321Please respect copyright.PENANA6CN1cyUpES
"Oh, don't do that. I'm not going to hurt you."321Please respect copyright.PENANAP60z6maP01
321Please respect copyright.PENANAPVof9HramY
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.321Please respect copyright.PENANAeewVGshgk5
321Please respect copyright.PENANAfOSPNIeP9M
"Stop," I said, glaring at him.321Please respect copyright.PENANAIC9JCCXHcT
321Please respect copyright.PENANAqPSLjheXkR
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."321Please respect copyright.PENANAxGjLrl7ToH
321Please respect copyright.PENANAE5H5CDyn5h
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.321Please respect copyright.PENANAaM0lZN6DHs
