The Diseased Killer

Chapter 17: The Revelation

     My eyes fluttered open and the first thing I saw was absolutely beautiful. Himiko laying beside me on the bed, fast asleep, light snores escaping her lips. I smiled at the sight. How I loved waking beside her every morning. It just had to be the best thing I was blessed with. That was saying a lot considering I don't believe in blessings. Even the sounds she made when she was asleep were like an alluring melody. I couldn't help but watch her in such a vulnerable yet attractive state. I lifted a hand to gently stroke her cheek. She had always been a light sleeper unlike myself. Her eyes slowly opened and I could tell it took her a moment to process what was going on in her waking life. Once she realized what was going on a smile crept up on her pretty face.

   "Hi, Toya", she cooed rather groggily.

   "Hey, baby", I replied sweetly. I never knew I'd be like this with anybody. I wasn't this vulnerable since I was a child with my siblings, so it was nice to finally be able to take off my apathetic mask and show my more loving side that was buried within my being, which was especially hard to access for most. I wanted to reserve that spot for a gorgeous young soul such as Himiko. Someone who had struggled so much as her definitely deserved that part of me, and no one else was allowed to have it. She was just that special. All that and more prodded my thoughts as I took a moment to admire her. She giggled, noticing my prolonged silence as I stared deep into her bright yellow eyes. 

   "What?", she asked.

   "You're just so beautiful. I love you so much", I muttered. I hoped that the walls weren't too thin so nobody else could hear, but then again, I also wanted everyone in the world to know just how much I loved her, that she was all mine and mine only, and that she had someone like me to make her the happiest she had ever been.

   "I love you, too, honey", she whispered, gazing into my eyes which made my heart flutter. Even that was hard to do for some people, so the fact she made me feel weird things for the first time in so long I knew she was just the one for me. And to show her as much, I pinned her wrists down and found myself on top of her.

   "Whoa!", she shrieked. She laughed so hard her eyes were tightly shut and I couldn't help but admire her again but this time gander at her in such a happy state. So genuine. "What are you doing?", she asked once she was done with her laughing fit. 

   "Loving you", I replied simply, and that was true. Even though it might've seemed like more, that was all I was doing was loving her. Damn, that sounded cheesy, but when I was around her I didn't care, especially when I got to be alone with her. I leaned down and kissed her deeply, shutting my eyes and enjoying the moment. After a little while I opened my eyes, noticing hers were open, too, but were wide with shock and her cheeks were pink. I pulled away, smiling at how flustered I could make her. I was definitely proud. I leaned down again to kiss her neck and pepper her nose and cheeks. Her smile was wide throughout. She closed her eyes to relish in the treatment I was giving her, and man, was I happy to give it. I moved down to her chest, kissing her soft skin. How I loved how smooth her skin was. Himiko laid still. I moved a hand to grasp her breast and a slight moan escaped her lips. I reached under her shirt to clutch at the smooth skin of her mounds. 

  "I like when you touch me", she admitted under her breath.

   "And I love touching you", I replied with a smile. Suddenly, my vision became obscured and blurry, as if everything I was seeing was slowly washing away in water, and every little sound echoed in my mind. What was going on?

                                                                              ------------------------

   My muscles jerked as I snapped awake. 

   What the hell? It was only a dream? Goddamn it.

   Well, you know what they say. Time to go make my dream a reality.
