henry creel, my love

chapter 4

i stretched and sat at the edge of my bed. i looked over and saw henry asleep, this is the first time i've ever seen him sleep, he looked really peaceful. i slipped his arm off my back and went to the other side of our bedroom to the crappy mini fridge. on top of the mini fridge was a crappier coffee machine. i figured i'd make him some before he woke up. i turned back around and henry was gone and out of bed. i looked behind me and jumped as he was right there. he lifted me up and planted kisses all over me. "what do you think you're doing gorgeous." he said jokingly. he kissed me hard as he held me in the air with my legs wrapped around his waist. i smiled. "making coffee." i said with an innocent face. we laughed and he set me down. the morning alarm went off and we both sighed. "guess not.." i said disappointed. he looked at me concerned. "hey.. there's always tomorrow sweetheart, or even later." he smiled softly. he was in an incredible mood but then again so was i. not because of last night but because i finally felt not alone in this lab. for the first time in 16 years i feel like i have someone. i think he feels the same. he was definitely very noticeably happy but infront of cameras he acted the way he usually was. but he had a big smile and was clearly happier around just me with no cameras. i was happy too. but then again i always acted happy infront of the children. i wanted to be positive infront of them. he acted quite happy infront of the children as well but he never really was and it was obvious. we stepped into the rainbow room and i sat down by 012, where amber was. 020 and 011 were also there. 011 was my favorite of the children. she didn't talk much and most people bullied her but i loved her. i looked at amber and have her gave her a mean look. "what's your problem." she said rudely. "stay the fuck away from him." i said and she looked at me. she didn't know i had powers, she also didn't have powers so i wasn't worried. i could kill her by twisting my neck to the side. if she didn't listen i'd simply do so. she smirked. "you actually think that's funny?" i said tilting my head downward but keeping my eyes on her. blood began running down my nose and she looked down, at her pants. there was period blood running all down her leg. in her white pants and she stood up and every one of the kids started laughing which made henry look over. i quickly wiped the blood from my nose. dr brenner walked in after seeing me do it on the cameras. "remarkable.." he whispered softly under his breath. two of the guards grabbed both my arms and exited me from the rainbow room. i kicked and yelled. "NO! LET HER GO!" i heard henry shout as i slammed the double doors with my powers. i shut him in there because i didn't want him to get hurt for protecting me. he knew i had done it as he was banging at the door yelling at me to open it but i didn't. the guards dragged me into the room and strapped me to the chair. they injected me with the medicine that weakened me, then here was the zap collar. they latched it to my neck and zapped me hard. i felt it run through each bone in my body, feeling my body weaken. then they brought the taser and teased me twice. i was in the chair with my head hanging down. i couldn't move. they unlatched me and dragged me by each arm on the ground. they threw me in my room and i hit the cold hard concrete. i laid there because i couldn't do much else. i couldn't move and could hardly breathe. after getting zapped in the past i learned that not moving is easier than moving because every time i moved i could feel the electromagnetic waves running through my body. so i laid there curled in a ball for what felt like hours before i heard the door open. i didn't want henry to see me like this but i couldn't shut the door with my powers because i was weak. he ran over to me and lifted me up. he set me on the bed and looked at me concerned. "princess oh my god. are you okay??" he asked rubbing my back gently with my hand. i struggled to use my words because of the pain. he nodded, confirming that he knew i was in too much pain to speak. "it's okay sweetheart i'm here." he gently laid next to me and wrapped his arm around me. he placed the blanket over us and kissed my cheek.

1 hour later

i was still in bed with henry and he knew i could probably talk now. "sweetheart, did you do that to her because you were jealous. i blushed because i was embarrassed. i nodded slowly and hid my face from him but he grabbed my chin and had me look at him. "that was great princess. i'm so proud of you. you did good and you did it for me. that means everything to me sweetheart. and don't you worry. i will never talk to her again." he said reassuring me. i blushed and kissed him. "hey it's gonna sound like we're corny middle schoolers because i mean we basically already are and it's not like i can take you on a date but.. id love it if you'd be my girlfriend.." he said stuttering. he was so cute. even if he seemed bold and dominant he just got so shy infront of me. which was adorable. "i'd love that so much henry." i replied and smiled. i saw him smile really big. "when we get out of here i'll take you on an amazing date." he said kissing me. when we get out? he's implying that we're escaping or being let go?.. how would that ever happen..
