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.497Please respect copyright.PENANAoQN4SBa4Tp
497Please respect copyright.PENANAeeAyjlLAHt
The first words out my mouth were, "What the fuck is that smell?"497Please respect copyright.PENANAEQEIy392s2
497Please respect copyright.PENANAMI8PvfqoSa
The mattress sank as the stranger sat down. Then they chuckled. It was definitely a male.497Please respect copyright.PENANAoQoKENx0t3
497Please respect copyright.PENANAYE99gqHcF7
"You're worried about the smell and not whether you'll live long enough to see the sunrise?"497Please respect copyright.PENANAb1izxOWJYH
497Please respect copyright.PENANA1Y4TKJgyI6
"How long have I been here?" I demanded.497Please respect copyright.PENANA9ELltra4yg
497Please respect copyright.PENANAel9gtT58GI
"Not long," he said. "I'm still deciding what to do with you as it stands."497Please respect copyright.PENANAIbWxiPuPng
497Please respect copyright.PENANAfM3Gg4CKwT
"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.497Please respect copyright.PENANAISbs9sVBtJ
497Please respect copyright.PENANAHHJdhWa3Vy
"I did not say that."497Please respect copyright.PENANA7asYHyhVQO
497Please respect copyright.PENANARrnC6pXDa2
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.497Please respect copyright.PENANAaxHZCj4wP0
497Please respect copyright.PENANA9sCflSCVEZ
"Why did you do that?" I asked, my voice calm, though inside I was terrified.497Please respect copyright.PENANAsYvmPdUl47
497Please respect copyright.PENANAIS9BU0Z6eF
"Because you wanted me to do it."497Please respect copyright.PENANAQN4mxySLrM
497Please respect copyright.PENANAKnQXi5gIlM
"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.497Please respect copyright.PENANACpbc8GakNs
497Please respect copyright.PENANASRctvQ0mbP
"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."497Please respect copyright.PENANAx8SN23GIk2
497Please respect copyright.PENANA9u3ogurmhm
With that, he stood up and left the room, leaving me to do nothing but stare into the darkness.497Please respect copyright.PENANA60kNgTVC6T
497Please respect copyright.PENANAK4UqDj76R2
497Please respect copyright.PENANAskH9SzXt6s
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.497Please respect copyright.PENANAO5yYqjVEXd
497Please respect copyright.PENANAcQaZz3pAV9
"Are you comfortable?" asked a voice.497Please respect copyright.PENANAqiqv7C44a5
497Please respect copyright.PENANAcjAJa92zu4
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.497Please respect copyright.PENANAvj342maqVL
497Please respect copyright.PENANA2DAMm6xWOS
"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."497Please respect copyright.PENANA02NSp4hsFe
497Please respect copyright.PENANAPO30vsm11U
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.497Please respect copyright.PENANAsDItF0IELQ
497Please respect copyright.PENANADk6ufiLWgD
"You're still wondering what you're doing here, aren't you?" he asked, turning his head. He was smirking at me.497Please respect copyright.PENANAavYkKbmkoG
497Please respect copyright.PENANA66lEH0XVXH
"No, I thought I'd just ignore the fact that I was fucking kidnapped." I rolled my eyes.497Please respect copyright.PENANAL7pfH5Txx9
497Please respect copyright.PENANAIZwkVMIxsq
"Oh, don't do that. I'm not going to hurt you."497Please respect copyright.PENANAHaPF9O3cQY
497Please respect copyright.PENANAUuCWUcJUar
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.497Please respect copyright.PENANA4jYZz37WL3
497Please respect copyright.PENANAn3rTbdMzok
"Stop," I said, glaring at him.497Please respect copyright.PENANA5nK3ArCggg
497Please respect copyright.PENANASoUcCtJufU
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."497Please respect copyright.PENANA3KmX3FR0dj
497Please respect copyright.PENANA5sHYKjInym
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.497Please respect copyright.PENANAUWwjbWrrAJ
