It was lunchtime. The guards, nurses and whoever else where invited to get lunch
Daphne of course got some but wasn't too fond of eating it. She wouldn't be trusting nothing any time soon
No one really sat in the lunchroom but her and a few other people
Her head was down as she picked at the food
Just then, a loud noise was made in front of her
She looks up to see Petter, who had just throw his tray down, sit in front of her
"Don't trust the food, hm?" He asks Daphne
She decides to look down and ignore him. Let's see how he likes his own medicine
It's obvious the tension
"I'm sorry for not talking to you earlier. I'm, actually risking it talking to you now"
"What do you mean?" She asks Peter
He lets out a breath, "They hurt you, didn't they?"
She doesn't say anything, but looks down and faintly nods her head
"Well, whatever you said to them made them not call for me. Thank you"
She looks up at him, and he smiles. Maybe he's not so bad after all
Though she wonders, "What are you risking talking to me?"
"Them hurting us"
"But why?"
"I can't, tell you"
She sighs, why not?
"I'd be worse for you. You must understand"
She still doesn't reply, and looks away
"What'd you do to get in here, Daphne?" He asks again
Vivid memories flash through her mind, of the murders
Some of them where easy. Some of them where gorey
She thinks that she got carried away. That shes a monster
"I- did horrible things to people" She whispers
Instead of a lecture or a 'what the fuck' face, he simply leans in closer to her and says "Me too"
He didn't seem like the type she thought. Well, neither did she
"We, shouldn't tell anyone" He says
"Okay"
"Pinky promise?" He says, earning a faint laugh from her
Just then, the announcer goes off, "Peter Ballard to room 205, Peter Ballard to room 205"
"Are they gonna hurt you?" She asks, almost panicked
"I don't know. It could be that or anything"
"Oh" Daphne looks down. They should force that pain on anyone
"Hey-"
He places a hand on her thigh under the table, "-don't worry about me"
The sudden touch makes her look at him
"You should eat" He says, before leaving the table and exciting the lunch room

001 - Peter Ballard
FanficPeter had simply manipulated one of the younger guards to help him escape. What he didn't know was that it was nearly impossible. Nearly Not only had he'd 'fallen in love', but he had disposed of his weakness (Soteria) smut maybe (definitely)
