As if hearing my thoughts he lowers his hips in between my legs trapping me more than i thought possible. I thrash to pull away but each movement only brings him closer to me. I steal a glance up at his face for the first time, hoping to plead him away. He holds my gaze with his own. His blue eyes roam my face from left to right as if he's looking for something. His jaw tightens as he now looks at my arms still searching. All the pain I felt from earlier suddenly vanishes and I can barely remember it. He looks back at me again and I notice a flicker of pain cross his face before he shakes his head and masks whatever he felt. He opens his mouth looking at me again and I hear that same deep hoarse voice from all those years ago, the one that haunts my nightmares. "Are you ready?" I hold his stare silently, not because I'm scared, but because he looks like he wants me to say no. Looking into his blue eyes I know what comes next and so I raise my eyebrow challenging him. He remains frozen. I've barely nodded yes before he's pushing us down. Deeper into the darkness until even his light is gone. ________________________________________________ For eighteen year old Jane McMann, killing herself should've saved her from the wrath of man.
