Opposites Attract (BoyxBoy)

Entrance - Me, Myself And I

When we arrived home the phone immediately rang. Liam answered it. "Hello?" he asked. He continued to talk and went into the other room. I set down my bags and stretched. I remembered the ring Liam gave me. I pulled it out of my hair. I placed it on my finger. Admiring it's brilliant shine. I stroked the soft feather. And mouthed the words, "I do". Liam came in turning off the phone. "I'm so sorry Laurie I have to go" he said getting his coat. "Go?" i asked surprised "go where?" I darted my head around like a small bird. "I just got a call from the BRIT School, I need to go for a meeting about our student house accommodation rights." He smiled and placed his hand on my shoulder. I blushed and waved without saying anything. "I wont be long Laurie don't worry" he left in a hurry. 

It was odd and not very nice not to have him here. I wanted to cry but I couldn't. I found a tall mirror in the dining room. I decided to practice my dancing. I practiced my en-point technique and turned around. I was tired and so my vision was slightly strange that evening.

But when I came back to the mirror, it was as if my reflection was slower than me. I waved at it but it didn't wave back. I backed up into a window and the lights cut out. I hate power cuts so i searched frantically for a torch. I heard footsteps and saw shadows in the corners. 

I walked very slowly down the halls. It's not the dark I'm afraid of. It's what's in the dark that I'm afraid of. As i ascended the stair case I heard the sound of laughter. Stopping and starting at each giggle I located the source.

It was coming from behind Liam's door. I reached for the handle but i was stopped by another noise. Only this time it sounded like Liam. It was the sound of ragged heavy breathing and moans. Then a woman's voice. The moans changed to screams and writhes of ecstasy and passion. The noise of the bed made it clear what it was. I backed away in shock and ran down the stairs. 

I hid in the living room and closed the door. I lit a candle on the fireplace. I saw a picture of Liam and me in our ballet costumes. He looked so attractive in that white top.

As i placed the picture down Liam's face distorted. I dropped the picture on the floor. The picture began to dance and taunt me. Our faces on the photo changed and came to life. Liam pulled a knife out from behind him. He looked evil and in the picture began to stab me. I clutched my stomach as he plunged the blade into the one who loved him.

I screamed and ran into the kitchen.

Suddenly i felt ill and rushed to the sink. Throwing up down the drain. Wiping my face with a cloth i saw a torch on the side. When i turned it on, I could hear someone crying. It was Liam. The sobs were horrifyingly deep and rough. "Liam?" i shouted.

I ran upstairs looking for him. His cried were loud from my room. I tried the door but it wouldn't budge. When it finally opened i rushed in shining the torch. The cried distorted and turned... plural. All around me were pictures of Liam. Photos, paintings, drawings and all kinds pasted to all my walls.

They were screaming things like, "Are you okay?" , "Little one!" , "Laurie!" , "I won't leave you!" . They were false portrayals. Their faces ran like wet paint as if they were crying for me. The sound was unbearable.

I shouted "I'M OKAY!" and tore the pictures away and ripped them apart. 

"Laurie?" Liam was behind me. "What's wrong?" I rushed towards him and touched his face. "Are you real?" i shouted through tears "are you real Liam?" "What do you-" I cut in "Are you real?" i shouted.

"Yes I am Laurie stop crying!" I ran into the bathroom and locked the door. Liam came after me and tried the door. "Open the door!" Liam shouted. "Hang on!" i shouted. I looked in the mirror and blood was gushing from my mouth.

Slapping my hands to it I fell to the floor screaming. Liam broke the lock and burst in. I was on the floor in agony. Removing my hands to reveal the blood i was shocked to see there was none. Liam held me and cradled me. I didn't care that it was awkward. I snuggled up closer and sobbed. "Shhhh Laurie, you're okay now" he said motherly "I'm home now". 

Liam... Never leave me alone again.
