It's All Going to Be Okay

Felix.

Swimming in a pitch black abyss.

My eyes were open.... but they didn't seem open. What was I doing here?
Last time I checked I was escaping from the freaks building. Did I die?. This doesn't look like heaven or hell. Then again I don't think I would ever be in either. So was this the place I would stay now? An empty dark place where nobody can see me, and I can't see myself.

I felt my body floating effortlessly then I saw what looked like several hands reaching for me. I watched as they grabbed onto different parts of my body, pulling me up towards wherever they came from. Overwhelming pressure against my body made me uncomfortable as they pulled me upwards. The faster we went the closer I saw the imbodiment of what looked like a mirror.

Mirror....

I can't look in a mirror. If I do then I'll see the freak I have been made to look like. The freak I don't want to see. The freak nobody loved or cared for.

I started fighting against the hands but there grip got tighter. We were getting closer and I started panicking. My chest heaving up and down. I couldn't breathe. We were inches away and I closed my eyes quickly and screamed panicked of the monster I was going to see.

I jolted up.

I could breathe again.

I looked around frantically and noticed I was in a bedroom. I didn't recognize it but the smell of the room smelled familiar. The odor was of a man.

Examining the room once more I saw the littlest of detail in the design. There was a couch in the middle of the room with a fireplace. The bedsheets are poofy and there are a bunch of pillows.

The realization that I was in an unfamiliar place hit me and I slid out of the bed. I felt the short but soft carpet on my feet and it made me jerk them back. I was expecting cold, hard floors.

I stood up on my two feet and silky fabric fell just above my thighs. I looked down and observed it seeing not only my new clothes but bandages. I huffed out a giggle wondering who helped me.

'Whoever it is, I need to thank them' I thought.

Tip toeing across the room, I reach for a door handle and opened it slowly. I walk out, forgetting the door behind me. I start walking quietly to my left and listen for anything in this.... house?

I listen to my surroundings and I only hear snoring, and paper flipping. I shake my head and keep my pace. I make it to some railing and I hear people's muffled voices.

I slide down the wall next to the railing and close my eyes, focusing on the voices.

" Boss... what's our next move?, the plan you had worked out. The city has freaks running all around it, scaring everybody. And everybody knows they came from Trances building."

" Yes, I know.... It's now officially going to be easy to get information on Serum HK black."

" Yes it very much will be easy now should I go and get our sp-"

" no need to be impatient Daneil, we have plenty of time."

" Then what should we do?"

" Patience...Daniel, someone's listening"

Hearing this I shoot my eyes open and slowly look between the first railing and the wall. I can see two standing bodies but one is smaller than the other. My attention goes to the larger guy. He has a burgundy button up, sleeves rolled up to his elbows revealing several tattoos down to his hands. He is wearing black slacks and fancy black shoes. My eyes trail up to his hair which is black and tied into a bun.

" Come on down, Darling."

I stiffen at this. Why is he calling me ? Does he know what I am? Who I am?

I stand up slowly and hesitate my way down the stairs. As my feet make contact with the floor, I was being greeted with a hand. I looked up and saw how tall this memorizing man was. He was smiling showing the fangs he had. My eyes widened at this. He had sharp teeth just like me. He had me in awe I forgot he was giving me his hand. My eyes dilated and I felt my face flush. I looked away and gave him my hand.

He pulled me close and now was analyzing my being. I stiffened and  didn't know what to do. 

" I was worried about you darling, when you ran out of that building and was practically shot at. How are you feeling?"

He pulled my chin up to look at him while his other hand was behind my head. I looked in his eyes and started to feel a lump in my throat, trying to prevent myself from crying.

He was showing affection and caring for me. looking into his eyes, they showed that he really did care. Who is this man?

" I am fine" I muttered shakily, still feeling the lump in my throat.

I guess he caught on and pulled me close.

" Daniel, go and tell everyone to prepare for the trip back to the city." He ordered still looking at me.

I heard a door open and close before I was lifted off the ground and placed on a cold counter. We were in a kitchen and he was getting paper towel.

" Tell me why your crying?"

I stayed quiet. I didn't know why I was crying.

" Darling, its okay to tell me"

" I don't know"

He was standing in front of me drying my face as there were reminisce black streaks. I stopped him and got down from the counter. Why is he being so loving to me? I'm a freak!.

" what's your name?"

" Felix, Darling "

" well Felix, you wouldn't understand..." I started but got interrupted.

" no body will ever understand, so just let them assume the worst, gives you an advantage darling~"

Felix told me. My eyes dilated and then got smaller. Worst part about all of this, is I beleived him.He was serious about all this. He made me feel safe. Was this him comforting me?

I smiled and felt tears fall down my face again. What is this guy doing to me.

" come here..."

I took small steps toward him, feeling embarrassed about my emotions. He picked me up again and placed me on the counter.

"I'm sorry they have done this to you "

He looked at me and caressed my cheek.

" your beautiful darling."

My heart dropped.He called me beautiful.A freak like me?

  I looked away from him. How could he say that?

"Your crazy"

I heard him chuckle and it made me smile.

The realization of this scared me. This guy actually cares for me.

"You have no idea...."

He smiled at me and we stared at each other until he asked for my name.

"My name is Aileen "
