Madness

~ Blue Part 2 ~

Large lavender eyes behind oval-shaped glasses. Pretty black hair changing to the color of the sky in waves down her back. Curved, cherry-blossom pink lips.

Danger.

"Nagisa-kun, try this." she holds a plastic cup filled with red punch to my lips.

Eyes filled with lust.

I take a small sip of the sweet drink, my eyes not leaving hers.

Danger.

She's biting her bottom lip, eyes focused intently on me.

Why did I come to her house?

She locked the door when we came in here.

Did she put something in the drink?

"How do you feel?"

Everything's becoming blurry. Chills run up and down my spine.

Danger.

"Dizzy. Cold."

"Good, good." She giggles, her voice sounds far away, and suddenly I feel something piercing my arm.

A needle?

It hurts.

But it's doing something.

Did she.. What did she do?

I shouldn't have come.

I felt it when I met her.

Something terrifying.

Intoxication.

Venom.

Fury and elation.

My visions clearing.

There's something blue in front of me. A bottle? No, a beaker.

"This is what I gave you. My own invention."

Chemicals?

Poison?

"How did it feel to almost die, Nagisa-kun?" She's put the beaker down.

Manami leans close, her face is inches from mine.

Curiosity.

Danger.

"Scary." I choke out.

"Good. I just love fear."

Her lips brush against mine for a moment, and then she draws back a smirk on her face.

"You're shaking. The second experiment hasn't even started."

I'm being controlled by this girl.

I don't like it.

But there's something exciting about this.

Adrenaline.

I can feel it coursing through my veins.

I want the thrill back.

I want to push the limits.

And risk my life like my mother would never let me do.

I can do that with Manami.

She's someone dangerous.

She can bring me to death's door, and then pull me away from it.

She's the source of my fear.

And the giver of excitement.

I want more.

Whatever that blue stuff was, I want more like it.
