Better to be Vile

Drabble, written for the Beatles challenge on lost100. I can feel the blood trickling from the fingers of my right hand into my left palm, the sweat beading on my upper lip. Being tied up on a deserted island isn't the fun you might expect it to be.

I can feel the blood trickling from the fingers of my right hand into my left palm, the sweat beading on my upper lip. Being tied up on a deserted island isn't the fun you might expect it to be. Kate finally shows up and leans coyly against a tree, like I haven't just been tortured.

I'm a loser. I ain't made no secret of the fact that I look out for myself. Hell, I revel in their accusations.

I lick the sweat from my lip and look up at Kate.

Let them stare into this monster.

I'm staring back.
