I was desperate for an escape.
Too desperate and if that meant falling
into the pit of darkness, so be it.
I found him under the dark night
and saw my chance to escape the
golden luxurious cage. A jail is a jail,

"I met him through a mutual friend." I began to speak and Viktor took a seat right in front of me on the couch, staring at me and indicating for me to go on. I was honestly surprised at how easily I could read his gaze sometimes, it was starting to freak me out.
I took in a deep breath before continuing, "He was a uni student. I was only fifteen, naive and stupid. The bare minimum made me fall in love - if it even could be called that because I was still young and experiencing different emotions."
As I was explaining, I began to relive all the memories subconsciously. The way I was dragged into a stupid party forcefully by my friends and when the first time I saw him, smiling and whispering soft words into a girl's ear. He was dressed in a black button up, sleeves rolled up and dark ripped jeans exposing his knees.
I was enchanted, the minute I laid my gaze upon him and then our eyes met.
He was tall, handsome and had a beautiful smile. I was swooned, I couldn't help but blush everytime he would glance at me at the party.
"He was twenty, I was fifteen. I met him at a party and I immediately got a crush on him, I thought it was alright for me to feel that way because that was exactly the first time I felt a different type of happiness. Butterflies bit at my stomach, tickling me and it felt like I could drown in his eyes,"
I paused and looked at Viktor momentarily to see him listening to me as if I was paying his rent. I felt a smile cross my lips but I quickly hid it by pursing my lips together, shaking my head.
"He reached out to my friend about me, she hooked us up and before you ask what kind of a friend does that, she was also quite young. The next day, he reached out to me on my socials and we began to talk, I was obviously ecstatic."
I still remembered how I screamed in my pillow upon getting his message, cheeks red and heart beating faster than usain bolt running.
I hated myself for feeling that way. Feeling so vulnerable and pathetic.
"He was nice, at first. He talked to me a lot and he even urged me to sneak out out of my house, go on little dates with him. He soon showed his true colors when the ignoring started to happen." I inhaled a deep breath, feeling like shit now that I was getting to the worst part and the pain I felt going through it.
It hurt, my chest felt empty yet it tightened. I saw Viktor gazing at me with a soft look and he surged forward, ankle resting on his other knee.
"Do you wish to go on?" He asked, lips pursed in a thin line after.
I sent him a fleeting nod and started speaking again, "He would ignore me, make me feel horrible on purpose then randomly text me and would throw heart warming words my way. Telling me how he cared for me, how I was the only one and that he wanted to meet again."
