Chapter 14

I forced my naked self to get to the bathroom, for my bladder was about to explode. When I came back i found them looking at me I intensely.

-Um... Hi? I said awkwardly.

-You said you could kill me... They said.

-I did?

They nodded.

-Please?

"Fuck! What have I done?" I hesitated but the replied.

-Ok... But in return...

-What is it?! I will do anything...

-I want to kill you as I please.

What was I saying?!!! What was i doing?

-... Deal! They replied before I could turn this conversation into a joke.

-Cool... Follow me... I said.

They did so without hesitation. I got them in my living room.

-Um... It will hurt like... A lot. So do you want to umm... Be restrained?

"STOP IT!" I tried to stop button body would not listen. I had to know.

-No I can handle it, they replied while letting the gray sheet slid off their body, revealing tons of scars and burns.

"How did I not see those last night?!" I thought as I stared. They did not seem to care me doing so. They simply covered the parts they felt uncomfortable with showing.

-Y...you are sure about this?! I asked and they simply nodded.

Ι took a knife from the kitchen and gently pushed them against the couch. They stayed still, so I just climbed atop of them and inhaled deeply.

-Are you 100% sure about this? I asked again, mainly talking to myself.

-Yes...

-Ok...Um...Deep breath now...

They did as I told them and I started carving circles and triangles and weird symbols of that short, that for some dammed reason they were implanted in my brain. I didn't even try to remember them. They just popped in my mind.

As these thoughts filled my mind, I failed to see that the person if front of me was crying. At the time I have already carved everything but a single symbol. I immediately stopped.

"Fuck...Does it hurt that much?"

I simply stared as they weakly lifted their right arm and touched my cheek. And then... they smiled...

I was shocked... My body heated up from their touch and guilt filled my whole existence. My insides got all twisted and I wanted to throw up. I was killing an innocent person. I tried to stop the bleeding but it was all in vain. I was panicking but they held my trembling hands and smiled once again.

-By the way... they said. My name is Gray...I never got to tell you...

-Nike, I said almost breathless, trying to hold back my tears. Nike Stanfield...

-Nike... they whispered. Your name is as pretty as you. Reminds me of Greek Gods and power... As they talked, blood streamed from their mouth to their jawline.

-Shhh, Stop talking now, I said since the view was making me guiltier.

-Thanks for taking up my request...they said and exhaled.

I leaned forward to see whether they were breathing or not. When I realized they were not, I could no longer hold my tears back. So I cried and cried for what seemed like a mileage, before the room turned, once more, into the colour of darkness.
