"Well these, um dreams there more like flashbacks really that happened from my past, so it's ok if you think different of me me after this".I said looking down.
"Why would you say that i could never think any different!" He said putting his hand on my arm.I gave him a small smile back.
"Well it started off with me covered in blood with the victim i uh emotionlessly killed, but then suddenly there were blazing sirens everywhere and all the exits were blocked off so i was trapped, i had to try and escape so i climbed up my way to the window on the fourth story and smashed it using my elbow, which led to me having a deep cut, it didn't effect me because the red room taught me to block out pain and just fight no matter what".I said with a sad smile on my face.
Bruce looked at me sympathetically and let me carry on, "So then i climbed onto the roof and there was a police helicopter light pointing directly me as they started shooting, so i ran for my life which was the usual and grappled onto another warehouse smashing through the window yet again, however in this warehouse there was explosive gas so one single bullet would blow the whole thing up, so i quickly shot at it and quickly started running for the door as the impact of heat threw me on the floor spluttering for air. Bruce then gave me a sad look but looking intrigued.
"I got up and ran to what i thought would be the escape van as it looked the exact same, and when i got in there was 5 armed guards aiming their guns at me, i fought of the first guard and killed him but before i could get to the others, a car jammed into the van tipping the van over and banged my head, i got up with a gash on my side and as i got up all the guards around me where dead. i kicked the door open and crawled out and waiting there was the um..red room".I paused looking down.
"They uh dragged me up and threw me into their van painfully saying that they crashed into the van because i created so much commotion, and to teach me a lesson and when i get back they would...ugh".
"You don't have to talk about if you want".Bruce replied.
"Well let's just say they would teach me a lesson".I replied. Bruce then wrapped his arm around me and said "Maybe it's because of what happend yesterday that you remembered."
"But the thing is i can remember every place that i have killed, i guess it just brings them back to the reality of who i am as a person".I stated.
"Yes a woman who has learnt to love and care more than anyone else can and by being deprived at the start just makes you feel it stronger".He said with a small smile.
"Bruce i do not deserve you".I said looking at him sadly.
"I do not deserve you too"He said with a small smile,"We are both fucked up in our own ways but that just makes us stronger".
"I guess you're right dork"I said with a smile slightly cringing.
"Ok so uh well my flashback was um"Bruce started stumbling on words anxiously.I reassured him with a smile. "I've not told anyone this ever so um yeah, well my flashback was about my uh, dad well he treated me and my mum poorly, he was always drinking most of the time and he was always focused on me being really smart so i could get a well paid job and give him the money that he said he deserved, uhh".Bruce said fiddling with hands he always does that when he's nervous.
"I was always a smart kid anyway, however one day i think i was like 7 or 8, i fell behind on some of the subjects because i loved science so much it was my main priority, i love it.Well anyway my mum wasn't there that day because she always works overtime, and ugh i showed him my results and uhh, h- he got really angry, he started yelling at me saying that i was a disgrace and i should do better, i said back to him that i was sorry it will never happen again but i could tell this time he really snapped".I gave him a sympathetic look thinking no wonder he never talked about his past as i brushed his curls out of his face.
"He then went up and uh started hitting me".I could see the pain in his eyes as i thought to myself who on earth could hurt Bruce."That was until uh my mum came home a-and she tried to stop him b-but, then my mum and dad started arguing and then umm, my dad pushed her over and she fell backwards and hit her head on the kitchen counter and that was it, she was gone, my dad went to jail and i was adopted to this random family but they didn't really bother much".Bruce explained putting his head in his hands.
I didn't know what to say, i had no idea Bruce had gone through all this, i knew how he turned into the hulk by being exposed by gamma rays but not this far back, i just took his hands away from his face and hugged him as hard and long as i could whilst kneeling in front of him saying "You don't deserve any of this".
"I barely remember my parents and look how i turned out"I said trying to make him feel better whilst putting on a small laugh but then ended with me reflecting on what i became afterwards.
He just smiled back.
I then lay right back next to him to comfort him and hopefully we could wake up and forget about everything.
