secret lovers

i look around as im held by the arms and walked up the stairs. i look to my right and see a woman staring at me she has blonde hair from what i can see. i turn to my left and see the press and the news anchors standing there flashing their cameras and trying their best to update their sides of the story. i cant have a say in any of it tho, i have words put in my mouth. my say doesn't exist, i'm silenced now.

as i'm stood waiting for them to throw me in my cell the blonde lady who i saw earlier walks down the stairs and i catch her eye, she catches mine and we make eye contact for a few seconds before she walks over. "the man killer. or.. man eater. yes man eater that's what i'll say. hello man eater." she says to me and i sigh and look at the floor, i open my mouth to talk but one of the men behind me cover it. "no talk. you quiet." he says and i say nothing. we walk around and end up in a room with a few sofas and a juke box, playing a song that repeats the same word every now and then.

i look around as they throw me down on the floor and walk out of the room. i look back down to help myself up and see feet in-front of me, i look up and see a tall man, he's smiling at me and offers a hand up. i take it and he shakes my hand. i shake his hand back and smile at him. "hi i'm kit,kit walker.  i take it you're the girl that killed her husband? we've heard a lot about your case. sister Mary Eunice doesn't shut-up about it.. what's your name?" he says and i say nothing. "hey.. you can speak now." he says and i open my mouth waiting for someone to make me stop. i smile when no one does and begin to speak.

"i'm- im y/n. i didn't kill him.. he died when we were arguing. heart attack. his sister was there and mis-understood. she accused me of killing and because she was seen as a witness i was thrown in here.. also because i'm bisexual they think it's a good excuse to put me in here." i say and kit gives me a funny look. "you're what?" he says and i repeat myself. "bisexual.." i say and he frowns.
"which is.." he says and i laugh.
"you seriously don't know? it's when someone loves both men and women." i say and we both stand silence while he takes in the information i was telling him.

i turn around as the door swings open and the blonde woman walks in and we make eye contact for a few seconds, i break it when kit begins to talk to me "that's sister Mary. watch out for her, she's very.. complicated." kit says and i tilt my head while staring at her again, admiring her beauty. i watch her body move as she walks over to me. "man eater. i hope you're behaving." she says and i hold my stomach with one arm. "i-im behaving.." i say and she smiles. "good girl." she says then walks away and out of the room.
"that woman is definitely in love with you." i hear a voice say from behind me. i turn around and see a girl with brown shoulder length hair stood behind me.

"hey! i'm lana.. sorry for just appearing. i noticed kit walking away when Mary Eunice was talking to you so i thought i'd introduce myself. it's nice to meet you y/n!" she says smiling at me, i smile back and we walk over to the sofas. i begin to sit down but stand up again as i'm approached by someone else, "y/n. i'm going to need you to come with me. sister Mary would like to see you. quickly now." the lady says and starts to rush me out of the room and to Mary Eunice's office. we walk in and the woman says something quietly to her then runs out.
"take a seat then, man-eater." she says and i sit down opposite her.
