"Do not open" box

"No, you're lying. I know what a little cold feels like. Come on, tell me. I know you can trust me because you did, back there, when I asked you to jump. Trust me, once again."

WHO IS THIS GUY?! I thought to myself. This wasn't how I remembered the school Eros, the school Eros was never smiling, never cared about others, he was a person who would always drop class to go party.

This Eros is... gentle, and I could trust him, but I'm not sure I want to do that just yet, so instead I just made up an elaborate story about something, "Yeah well, I'm afraid of heights." Which wasn't a complete lie, I was afraid of heights.

"It could be the truth, but it isn't the whole truth. The way you were shivering was scary. It was like you were on the verge of dying, you did calm down later when I put you down; but still, that's beside the point."

"What do you mean? I did tell you the truth." I questioned, playing dumb

"Not the whole truth but it's fine, I'll wait till you can trust me fully." Eros said and just sipped whatever he was drinking and looked out into the forest.

Why did he have to look this good, while just looking in space? To break the silence I asked, "Why are you here?"

"I can't sleep." He answered, plainly.

"Oh'' I said, sounding a little more disappointed than I intended.

"Well you enjoy yourself here, I'm sleepy so I'm gonna go to sleep, alright?"

"Alright." Eros said, his voice coming out cold.

I went back inside my room, and I said I was sleepy, but I couldn't sleep for the life of me. I layed down on my bed and stared at the ceiling with a hundred thoughts in my head.

I couldn't get Eros's words out of my head. Could I really trust him? Could I actually tell him about my past? I don't really know if I can tell him anything right now.

I pushed all those thoughts in my 'do not open' box in my head. I knew I needed sleep or else I won't be able to survive tomorrow so I fell asleep.

It was a normal morning, well whatever was normal right now. I got out of bed and Eros and Carl were already sitting on the table out, they didn't start eating yet.

"Good mornin' Rue!" Said Carl, sounding all cherry and like someone who got at least 7 hours of sleep. Lucky bastard.

"Good morning guys." I muttered, in my defence I still hadn't drunk my coffee so I kind of could be a little grumpy.

We all ate our breakfast in silence and we packed some of it for the way. We all took our bags and the Cabin just vanished into tiny little pieces.
