Alone But Not Lonely

by BlackSwanGirl

Sophie Foster is a science experiment, and that's all she really knows. Her home is a science lab, and the only people she ever sees are doctors and scientists with cold, silent masks. But she meets someone special who teaches her that being alone is good, but no one likes being lonely.

I remember some stuff, I guess.

I remember white tables.

I remember something rough touching my hands.

I remember teal eyes piercing my own.

I remember being wrapped in someone's arms, feeling safe and warm.

I remember lips on mine, and touching someone's smooth hair.

And I remember warm tastes filling my mouth, sugar hitting my tongue, and my mouth filling with wonderful tastes.

But now all I know is a science lab where I am trapped, and cold masks with mysterious people behind them.

I have been taught that I am not human. I have been taught that I am not to speak. I have been taught that I am dangerous, and that I should not be alive.

But it's all for the greater good, that's what they tell me. So I let them poke and prod, and I let them stick in needles, and I let them experiment.

It's all for the greater good, right?

It's all for the greater good.

Ouch. I really do hate needles.
