Read with caution this story gets really weird...
I smiled at as I walked into the main office.
"Sonny, what a surprise to see you! I thought I gave you the day shift." She asked
"Yes you did.. But I prefer the night shift better, if you wouldn't mind could I take that shift instead?"
Ms. Davis looked at me suspiciously, before she gave in and promised to switch my shifts with Bradley. She told me Bradley had been begging for the day shifts, so she would be pleased with me switching with her.
I waited for Ms. Davis to leave, tapping my fingers impatiently on the desk. Soon, the service bell rang. From cell 6. Ms. Davis sighed in annoyance,
"Don't worry Sonny, I'll go deal with him."
She sauntered off down the hall way, leaving me nervous. What if he asked for me? Then Ms. Davis would know that
I had disobeyed her.
I would surely be fired, then I wouldn't be able to see Will again. Suddenly I heard yelling.
Screaming almost, then the sound of a howl. A loud, long cry. Ms. Davis walked into the room, arms crossed and a stern look on her face.
" Sonny, I'm calling it a night. Finish up the paperwork, then check on the other inmates to make sure they are alright." She advised me.
I nodded my head, listening to the 'click click' of her high heels a she exited the building.
I got up from my desk, hearing another heart breaking howl from Will. I dashed down the hall way, the other inmates 'ooh' ing and laughing at me.
Their cackling scared the living daylights out of me. I approached the end of the hall when one of the men called out to me,
" Aye there little boy, don't go messin' around with that monster down there. He could snap your little porcelain neck before you'd have the chance to scream."
I looked down at the door handle, the door to the stairs that lead down into the basement. I couldn't just leave Will down there all by himself.
"Don't do it boy, you better stay up here and be safe."
I didn't care about my safety, for Will let out another howl.
One that called me to him, I needed Will and he needed me.
I ran down the steps of the basement to Will's cell. I tore the door open to see him crouched on the floor, his raven blonde hair falling over his heavenly blue eyes.
"Will, I'm so sorry I couldn't come down here earlier. Ms Davis was holding me up." I explained.
Will looked up at me, smiling
"Hun, you made it."
He stood up, revealing his shirtless torso. He engulfed me in a hug, stroking my hair. I buried my face into his chest, feeling safe in his warmth.
I looked up at him and lightly kissed him on the corner of the mouth.
"Mhmm thank you Hun." He said, taking my hand in his and bringing me to his cot.
I realized how big the cot actually was, it could fit 3 people Will's size. He layed me down on the bed as he went to the other side of the room, sitting on the floor.
I propped my head on my hand and stared at him,
"Come on, why don't you lie here with me?" I questioned. Will shrugged his shoulders and looked down at the ground.
"Hun, do you promise to come visit me every night?" He asked, standing up and sitting down beside me.
"Of course Will, I work the night shift every night. I promise darling." I reassured him.
We sat in silence for a while, him pushing his hair out of his face while I watched him.
"Will.. Why do you call me hun?"
He looked up at me and smiled before answering,
"When I was 10 I had this pet I named him hunny. He was as white as the clouds, like you and he had the most dazzling brown eyes.
Eyes exactly like yours. I later on killed him, my father threatened to do it so I did it myself. I made sure hunny was put to rest peacefully." Will stared at the red ceiling, while I fidgeted uncomfortably in my seat.
"Hunny, have you ever loved someone?" Will asked.
"Well.." I tapped my finger on my chin, " I love my mom, and the cat I had when I was -" Will interrupted me,
" No, no. I mean loved somebody. Like a girlfriend?"
I blushed contemplating whether I should tell Will.
"Well actually, I had a boyfriend freshman year." Will let out a low growl and buried me into his side.
"Does that make you gay?" He whispered.
I nodded my head as he kissed my cheek,
"Don't you ever leave me hun."
Will later on asked me to bring him out of his cell, so we walked up the stairs together. Suddenly, I remembered I had to check on the other inmates to make sure they were okay.
I walked down the hall, peaking through each of the doors windows. Seeing that they were all asleep I was content. I took Will into the high fashioned sitting room, he sat on the couch and sank back. Enjoying the squishy feeling. I quickly got him food and drink, sitting down beside him as he devoured his food.
I heard one of the cell mates yelling for me,
" Aye, boy. I need some assistance, cell 3!" He yelled. I instantly recognized the voice to be the man who told me not to go see Will. I told Will to stay put, while I wandered over to cell 3. The man smiled at me, showing off his crooked teeth.
He wore an eye patch, his other eye being a grass green colour.
"How can I help you sir?" I asked him.
He walked up to the small, head sized window and stuck his arm out. He grabbed me by the head and pulled me close to him, examining my face.
"A youngster, aye?"
He stroked my cheek like Will did the first day I met him, massaging my cheek his the pad of his thumb. I enjoyed the feeling, and he knew it.
He chuckled at me while stopping, taking his arm back into the cell. I whimpered at the loss of touch,
"So, what's your name?" He asked me.
"I'm Sonny, who are you?" I replied.
He told me his name was Ethan, and that he'd been in his cell for a year. I suddenly wondered if they were ever let out.
I asked Ethan that and he told me they were let out 3 times a day. Once at breakfast, once at lunch and once after supper.
He told me that they roamed the halls and the court yard, at that time the sitting and office area was sealed by a row of steel bars.
Some of the inmates banged on the bars and screamed at the workers to scare them.
"So, you went in the basement.. Did j'a? " He changed the subject.
"Yes.. I did." I replied, lowering my head.
"Well, there's no stopping ya now. I must warn you, don't let him get to you. He knows how, he can sense fear, he can sense love. He's a sneaky one, he is indeed." Ethan now lowered his voice into a whisper, every now and then wiping his dirty blond hair from his eyes.
"Take my advice boy, now go. Go back to that creature." He spat out the last word, making me flinch. I then ran back to the room where Will sat.
I checked the clock to see that we were running out of time. I gave Will a sad smile, signalling that it was time to go. This time he didn't seem sad, in fact he laced his arm with mine as we entered his cell. Will pushed me up against the wall and kissed me. A long, passionate kiss that I enjoyed every second of it.
"Hun, thank you. I have now felt the feeling of freedom, and the feeling of love." I smiled and kissed Will one last time on the cheek.
"I'll see you tomorrow night Will." I said as I prepared to walk out of the cell.
"Hun, just one more thing." I turned around to hear what he had to say, "Don't listen to Ethan, he's a wicked o'l bat."
I chuckled exiting the hospital as Bradley walked in.
