the punishment motive (completed)

darkness

darkness everywhere

i could feel myself underwater, and i couldn't see even if i opened my eyes

the water felt dark

i felt like i was sinking, but floating at the same time

i couldn't breathe. it was like a hand was wrapped around my throat

am i bleeding?

i feel so cold, like the warmth in my body is flowing out of me and fading into the coldness of the dark water

i felt so alone, but it wasn't really a bad thing

it felt like no one wanted to see me at the moment, and that they'd be better off not seeing my at  all

what happened to me?

why am i underwater?

why am i bleeding?

..

how am i even alive right now?

something wrapped around my waist and pulled me..up?

my body was limp, so i wouldn't have fought back either way, as i felt the darkness dissipating from my body, and the blood flowing away, forever lost in the dark water

the arms felt so strong, like they themselves were telling me that i was safe, that they'd never let me go

i felt like i could finally open my eyes

i found outstretch my arms and hold whoever my savior was

to hold them and never let them go

we'd sit in the light forever, never letting the other be lost to the darkness

we'd be happy together, two souls becoming one

i'd caress their cheek and tell them what they mean to me, they'd hold me by the waist and whisper sweet nothings in my ear as we'd lay together under a beautiful night sky

my soul with another, a mix of light and darkness

a perfect balance, like the dark night sky and the twinkling of the bright and fragile stars

i started to open my eyes to gaze at whoever saved me...

and it was kiibo, his eyes locked with mine in a concerned, yet relieved light

was it him?

was he the light to my darkness?

a robot i never showed my appreciation for, one i constantly harassed and made uncomfortable...

was the one?

i woke up slowly, the dim light of dawn shining on my face as i stared up at a sleeping kiibo, holding me from behind in his lap

i never noticed how cute he was, the way his white hair fell against his eyes, and made them stand out more, strangely

even when he was asleep he looked so beautiful

i recalled my dream and only one question remained in my mind

why would he save me?
