Scary Stories

VI

I walked into my dormitory and closed the door. Steven was strapped down to his bed. We made eye contact. As he started to whimper I smiled.
"What did you do this time, Steven?" whispered eerily "Did you touch something or someone you shouldn't have?"
I pulled the single chair that separated our beds up to the side of his. Steven whimpered again.
"Come on Steven. You dissever worst than this school and you know it."
"What are you going to do to me" he cried "please don't rape me."
"Why would I have sex with anything as feral as you" I stood up and started to pace around the room with my hands behind my back.

"Why are you scared of me?" I asked while surveying my fingernails.
"Because .. be..cause" he stuttered.
"Yes?" I raised my eyebrows.

He started crying "You're a freak and you're gay."
I sniggered "That's a bit homophobic" I slid back into the chair and hissed "also I'm not gay, I'm just do not like anything or anyone. So that means unlike you I have never had sex and I never want to."

I stood up and put the chair back to where it was. I took off my personal clothing and put on the grey track suit they gave us when we first came to the school. My bed creaked as I sat down on it.
"Now Steven I want you to scream" I spoke calmly "I want you to scream"
Steven replied through tears "why?"
I raised again and crouched next to his head.

"Because I need this room to myself" I hissed "Now scream."

And he did. As he yelled out and shouted I rushed to my bed and pulled the covers over my body, I patted the sides of the bed down like I always do. Then I forced myself to cry. Steven continued to call up for help until the door opened and a security guard walked in. As soon as he marched in Steven stopped screaming.

"He made me scream!" Steven shouted.
"How the hell does someone make you scream?"the security guard said.
"He called me a gay freak and then started screaming" I whimpered.
"No more than that happened" Steven shouted "He.."
"Did you lie Ethan?" the guard cut Steven off.
"No" I replied
"Did he lie?" he asked Steven.
"Well no he technically didn't but.."

"Ok I've heard enough" the guard cut Steven off again "You're going to maximum security so we can keep an eye on you.

The security guard unlocked the weals on Stevens bed and rolled him out of the room.
"I hate you Ethan!" Steven screamed as he left the room.

I was left on my own in the room. I smiled to myself and thought of the last piece of advice my father gave me. It's better to leave out parts of the truth out than lie.
