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.312Please respect copyright.PENANAGb7z84dpVR
312Please respect copyright.PENANA2jHKIDVuQm
The first words out my mouth were, "What the fuck is that smell?"312Please respect copyright.PENANAd5feqfW5FK
312Please respect copyright.PENANANIWem9xHv2
The mattress sank as the stranger sat down. Then they chuckled. It was definitely a male.312Please respect copyright.PENANADsazs4EuMl
312Please respect copyright.PENANAmU7iGL0p06
"You're worried about the smell and not whether you'll live long enough to see the sunrise?"312Please respect copyright.PENANAmdzMDzsEZa
312Please respect copyright.PENANASZHhkIxhmP
"How long have I been here?" I demanded.312Please respect copyright.PENANASjAdGI5BGL
312Please respect copyright.PENANAGYC9SPy7D4
"Not long," he said. "I'm still deciding what to do with you as it stands."312Please respect copyright.PENANAGGQ0mUE0ht
312Please respect copyright.PENANAOZGFUpGKPj
"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.312Please respect copyright.PENANAQrRudgbMrc
312Please respect copyright.PENANA2haVXLBEgm
"I did not say that."312Please respect copyright.PENANAgaFtFahq3D
312Please respect copyright.PENANALhCrkuVAzC
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.312Please respect copyright.PENANA9Imi9LMKhy
312Please respect copyright.PENANA5iBXnTeD6e
"Why did you do that?" I asked, my voice calm, though inside I was terrified.312Please respect copyright.PENANA0YnKCXkzrj
312Please respect copyright.PENANAGlHdOxQYwa
"Because you wanted me to do it."312Please respect copyright.PENANALKP7ZqGm7X
312Please respect copyright.PENANA6MtgBk7ETw
"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.312Please respect copyright.PENANAXz60tS8dzT
312Please respect copyright.PENANAFRdI0y2xxp
"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."312Please respect copyright.PENANAYdgTHNzQFL
312Please respect copyright.PENANAftNMeMS0JG
With that, he stood up and left the room, leaving me to do nothing but stare into the darkness.312Please respect copyright.PENANAF8EIoEgSln

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.312Please respect copyright.PENANAnucywA6lZs
312Please respect copyright.PENANARgjhQndmXd
"Are you comfortable?" asked a voice.312Please respect copyright.PENANAs0k2I4bcew
312Please respect copyright.PENANAmPuVDCiF8e
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.312Please respect copyright.PENANAoxp15sqwOI
312Please respect copyright.PENANAeEYxnKnjJp
"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."312Please respect copyright.PENANAm08tizNAdl
312Please respect copyright.PENANADJbInfUYnu
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.312Please respect copyright.PENANANY9B1zclyN
312Please respect copyright.PENANAUxBN39wQTz
"You're still wondering what you're doing here, aren't you?" he asked, turning his head. He was smirking at me.312Please respect copyright.PENANANobO34whbe
312Please respect copyright.PENANAhiaCtdzWBv
"No, I thought I'd just ignore the fact that I was fucking kidnapped." I rolled my eyes.312Please respect copyright.PENANAURmRkMZ4gf
312Please respect copyright.PENANAL9m7YvCp2b
"Oh, don't do that. I'm not going to hurt you."312Please respect copyright.PENANA3FBk3QV02l
312Please respect copyright.PENANAWj4u0FFdri
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.312Please respect copyright.PENANAYUV5zRzvrg
312Please respect copyright.PENANANPWZgmTehN
"Stop," I said, glaring at him.312Please respect copyright.PENANAvOrXGu3Cvt
312Please respect copyright.PENANAjlSO2Yv5Fi
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."312Please respect copyright.PENANAsPPWzfTCUz
312Please respect copyright.PENANA8ooacm28uc
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.312Please respect copyright.PENANAG2zCiMG4F1
