Love On Fire

Veins

I walk around my apartment, getting off the phone with Matt who checked on me for the twentieth time today. My eyes drift to a clock that lies on my bedside, the darkness outside along with the clock telling its late at night, 11am to be exact.

I shift onto my warm bed, missing my comforter more than ever since I'm constantly at Matt's apartment, even though I firmly told him I won't move in yet.

I sink into my bed, letting every spring of the bed press against my back. The cool blanket deflating onto my figure, warming up due to my body heat.

I close my tired eyes, letting sleep consume me. Once I find a complete stance to dream, my front door bursts open. My dark room not aiding me to see exactly who it is, but the large figure giving him away.

The shadow of wide shoulders, thick torso, bald head, and large hands.

The same large hands that wrap around my throat in an instant, pulling me off the bed than to slam be back down, smothering me out of breath continuously.

"You thought I wouldn't find out you talked to my mother? Than killed my best friend?!" He yells as he smothers me to death. My fingers dig into his, making his and my hands bleed.

He roars in pain but doesn't let up.

"I'm going to kill you! But Mr. Urich goes first...He will die in front of his computer writing his unpublished article. When he least expects it." Fisk grunts out of breath from flinging and choking me. He pulls me forward towards his face, showing that he means his every word.

His forehead holds a vein of anger and his eyes are red rimmed. Once seeing his face clearly due to my eyes adjusting to the dim light of the moon he grabs my head with his large hand, bringing it back before pushing it towards my hard wall.

My screams penetrate the world as the events happen so fast. My closed eyes open and see Matt and Avi at my side holding me down from my thrashing and yelling body.

"Daeva! Daeva! Calm down, calm down!" Avi says loudly at my once sleeping, but now awake body.

I sit upwards in my bed, my aches and pains screaming at me to lay down.

Matt's covered in blood as well as Avi who stand around the bedside. Avis eyes are wide as of in fear and shock.

"What?" I ask him through gritted teeth as he continues to stare. "What?" I repeat this time louder.

"Y-Your eyes...they're white." He murmurs causing me to close my eyes hardly, not feeling any difference.

"What?" I ask again, not exactly believing him.

"They're normal now...how?" Avi asks looking at Matt who stands there stiff as a statue.

"I-I Don't know?!" I cry loudly in intense confusion in pain. My eyes water from the pain running up my arms causing my eyes to trail down.

My arms are stained red but my veins bulge out, bright blue almost white. I let out a sob like scream in fear of my own body.

"She's going to pass out again if she doesn't calm down." Avi tells Matt loudly before my head drops down back onto the pillow.

I open my eyes again and see Ben Urich's face, swollen and layer sideways on the floor. His eyes bulged and lips parted. Skin cold and motionless. His throat holding a handprint, where his life was sucked away ruthlessly...and without even having to think I know it was Fisk.

No need to think, or assume, because my mind gives me all I need to know, without even trying.
