Torrin P.O.V

“It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,

Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt,

It lies behind stars and under hills,

And empty holes it fills,

It comes first and follows after,

Ends life, kills laughter.”

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit

Darkness.

The dark is filled with emotions just lurking behind its eerie shadows.

It can be good.

It can fill your heart with quietness, relaxation, warmth, peacefulness, serene…

Or it can be bad and fill your heart with loneliness, hurt, fright, pain, confusion...helplessness.

But all that matters is how you look at it. And that’s the number one feeling you get when you come face to face with darkness.

Thoughtfulness…consideration if you will.

 Well with all my thoughts the most powerful one was helplessness. No not pain, anger, or even fear. I felt helpless. I had no control over my body. It was dark inside my mind. I wanted to open my eyes or at least make the slightest twitch of my fingers, but no. I was frozen.

Am I dead?

That’s the question that filled my head. If I was then that was a stupid way to die. A dodge ball? Really? If not, I was happy. Maybe my death will be more…natural…and have nothing to do with a red ball.

My thoughts were answered when I could hear a faint beeping sound come to hearing. I felt the rough sheets under my body. The loose hospital gown, exposing my back making me feel exposed even though I was clearly laying on my back. I could feel the needle in my wrist pumping morphine into my system. And lastly the tightly woven bandages covering my torso.

I was in a little pain to say the least, but most of all I felt weak. And that made me feel even more helpless. I blame it on the d*mn blood loss.

I didn’t even know I was bleeding until I felt a trickle of warm liquid roll down my leg and so I looked down. And when Crispin wiped away my stubborn tear, that escaped my hold, I felt the electric literally wave through me.

And the pleasure.

Oh the pleasure...

It pulsated through me just thinking about it. If his magic acts keep ending up like that I don’t think I won’t them to stop.

Gosh….f**k me.

If I could sigh right now I would.

Truthfully I think that part of why I passed out. Not just because of the lack of blood, but the way he touched me.

I didn’t continue my thoughts when I heard faint voices in the room with me.

“Is she awake yet?” a guy’s voice said.

“No, but I think she’s about to, her heart beat got faster just a few seconds ago.” Another guy’s voice said.

D*mn Crispin and his waves of pleasure.

This time I could hear the beeping getting faster then dying down to normal, myself.

“See…” the voice trailed again.

Ugh stupid, stupid, stupid.

I heard what I think was the door click shut, and two figures walked in. “What did we miss?” They said in union.
