My Shadow (BxB Yaoi)

Two

My eyes stayed glued to the ground the entire day, only looking up when a teacher talked to me. That was only once though. My teachers practically shunned me. Like I said, everyone thinks I'm a freak. Except Misses Jeanette.

She was the school librarian, a kind old lady. I'd have lunch with her everyday because she seemed so lonely. We became friends my first year of high school and I adored the lady. My only real friend... But she passed away during the summer.

Gone like my mother and everyone else. I was completely alone yet again.

I camped out in the bathroom during lunch. Finding solitude, finally no one was around to call me a freak. Though, what I was doing at the moment was kind of freaky.

I had finished my sandwich I had packed and was staring at the ground. Staring at my shadow. Waving my hands around and watching as it copied my every move. It took me by surprise when I wiggled my fingers though. It didn't move. Instead it was like it grew. My whole body shivered as I felt a warm breeze, but how is that possible... I was in the bathroom.

My eyes grew wide and my mouth fell open.

'What the hell...' 

I could hear whispering. They were so quite that I couldn't make out what they were saying. Suddenly a black hand appeared in front of my face. I could see through it slightly but there were no bones or anything... Like black dust in the shape of a hand. It reached out to me and I flinched.

I wasn't exactly scared but I was nervous. The hand faintly touched my chin before stroking my cheek. I found myself leaning into it, loving the feeling of it against my face. Comforting. It made me feel loved, a feeling I haven't felt for ages. Placing my hand against it I held it against my cheek.

My shadow.

Sometimes I wonder if it's just an allusion. Never in my life have I ever seen anyone with a shadow like mine. I understand why people think I'm a freak.

The whispers became louder and one word made my heart beat faster.

"Danny..."

It travelled through my ears, so seductive and sexy but kind and loving at the same time. Tears started to form in my eyes. That one word just made me want to spill out all of my feelings. I didn't understand what was happening but I didn't care. A tear seemed to escape and rolled down my cheek slowly.

Soft, gentle fingers wiped it away but that one action just made all the rest pour out.

"Danny..."

It whispered again yet seemed to be closer to my ear. My body shivered as tears continued to fall. I felt something against my lips and whimpered quietly. Soft plump lips. I didn't understand... What the hell was going on?! My body reacted before my mind and suddenly my lips were pressing against the others.

A kiss.

I was kissing a shadow.

My shadow.

"Danny's a freak~ Danny's a freak~!"

"I bet your mommy hates you. I bet she thinks you're a freak and doesn't love you."

"You're weird."

"I'm scared, Danny's scaring me."

"MOVE AWAY! HELP!"

"No way! Did you see that?! His shadow! It moved!"

"AAAHHH! RUN! DANNYS GONNA GET US!"
