"He seems more frightened today than yesterday," Dr.Johnson explained.
I looked through the glass & into the room that had the boy lying on a table, being experimented on.
His eyes were full of curiosity like an other day being stuck in a cell except for when he was placed in this room, being examined by different professors for being the way he was.
"I'm hoping we can get him to change in a matter of days."
I nodded along with Dr. Moore even though I was against all of it in my head.
I was always scared that they'd hurt the boy but so far he hasn't been touched by anyone except for when he's drug into here.
I felt bad for the small boy. I knew if it was me in there surrounded by a bunch of different machines making noises that I had no clue how they worked I'd be frightened.
I couldn't help but feel a pain in my chest when the other doctors talked about trying to change him when I was exactly what he was.
No one knows except for me, myself, & I. And no one will ever know except for me. I hated the fact that I had to hide my true colors & be dull like everyone & everything else.
I watched as he was sat up & taken out the door of the experimenting room.
Doctor Johnson nudged his elbow against me as he said, "Styles I think it's your turn to take him back."
I nodded & walked out the examining room to find the boy standing in the hallway with a guard by his side. I looked to the guard & nodded my head for him to go back into the examining room while I looked to the boy with a small smile.
I slowly walked with him down the hallways to his cell. It was an awkward silence that filled the air, something he was probably used to.
"What's your name?" I asked in the kindest way.
He gave me a confused look, raising an eyebrow, "M-my name?"
"Yeah, what you go by." I said as I stared into the blue of eyes that I never noticed for this being the first time I've ever been this close to him physically.
He was a pretty attractive guy. I was actually a bit jealous that he was the most colorful being I've seen on this planet & I could be that way but I'm too scared to wipe away the gray painted over me.
"You actually want to know something about me? Or even try to make small talk with me?" His voice was full of confusion.
This was probably the first time someone was actually being nice to him & not forcing him to do this or that or giving him different commands or scolding him for being different & a disgrace to this world.
"It's not a bad thing. I'll start, my name's Harry," I smirked giving him a kind smile.
His eyes lit up & a small smile appeared on his face as he replied, "My name's Louis. I've never seen you before. You haven't done any tests on me, why is that?"
I looked away from his eyes & stared at the ground before answering, "There are reasons."
"May I ask what these reasons are?" He said in almost an instant.
I knew his cell was a few feet away & I turned my head to see if anyone was following or around us to hear our conversation.
Thank god no one was in sight. I quickened our speed & held onto his right arm as I pulled him into the soundproof cell. I looked down the hall before shutting the heavy door & looking back into Louis' ocean blue eyes.
