I woke up that morning, no longer in Rubys arms however i was still happy as i could hear the shower meaning he would be in there. Once i had woken up i walked over to the widow and was hit a breath taking ray of sun. The sky was perfectly still and birds flew around happily.
As i walked through the hall to the bathroom i undressed myself to join Aristos in the shower. I pulled back the shower curtain, got in and began to rub Rubys back making him relax his spine. He turned to kiss me, i looked at his face even reached out to touch it. It wasn't him. It was Jimmy from the psych ward were i spent ages 14-16 going in and out for various amounts of time.
He lent in to kiss me, i tried to push him off me but his arms around me locked me in, i had no were to run to. His body towered over me, shrinking me to a worthless object he wanted to cherish until the net young girl came along and discard of me.
I had managed to escape from him, the apartment was no longer the apartment but the ward where i spend time being watched reporting back to the doors and my mom every time i slipped up. I ran through the halls as i had many times before however it was different the hall had no end and the doors slowly disappeared.
Jims face had morphed into that of the guy from the bar, then to the guy at the diner, then into a creature who had black gaping holes in its face which resembled eyes, teeth sharp like razor blades, thin, long, bony fingers which reached out to grab me. I turned to watch my death as i ran trying to escape the void i was locked in.
I fell.
And fell. And fell further into the all consuming darkness.
