Sleep never came. Every time I closed my eyes, all I could see were his eyes. Dark, bottomless holes of hate, hunger, and pain. When I finally, did sleep , I dreamt.
I was in a dark room, even with my heightened vision, it was blank. I tried to move but I felt something hard restraining me. A unbearable burning started at my wrists, like fire licking my skin. I screamed in pain. I felt blood pour down my hands and trickle onto the ground. "Oh, Erlina! I told I'd be back!" An all too familiar voice called.
Irial.
I froze. My heart, that had already been pounding, stabbed into my chest. My quickened breath hitched. I couldn't see where he came from. I thrashed back and forth which only caused more pain in my wrist.
"My Dear, you have to stop, you are making it unbearable not to just suck you dry of your pain right now. But, I can't let you go without,"
I heard footsteps come toward me in long strides. I heard him crunch down beside me as his clothes ruffled and pressed against my skin. He leaned in toward my ear and I felt his hot, heavy breath against my ear lobe. "Your punishment." He hissed. He stepped back and shuffled around to find something. I heard the thing roll across the floor. Whatever it was hard and rusty. He leaned forward and lightly pressed it against my skin.
A knife. An iron knife.
"Please, Don't!" I sobbed," Why?"
"Why?" He mock-laughed."You are so naive, you know that? Maybe because you're hurting Niall? Maybe because think you're so much better than everyone?Or simply because you just are so appetizing? But you know what?You don't know what pain feels like." He grabbed for my hand. I tried to pull back but he was too strong. He pressed the knife at my hand and sliced my hand as my blood fell onto his hand.
"Now, how does that feel? Does it hurt? Burn? Well, don't worry it won't be the end." He hissed.
He stabbed the knife into my arm. I yelped in agony. I could feel my brain becoming fuzzy and my limbs were numb and flimsy. If i could see, my vision would be doubled and spinning. My head started to sway and my heart beat slowed, my breath became laboured. All the worries in my head started to fade away into nothing. No Keenan, no Irial, no Donia. Nothing but pain.
The darkness slowly faded into a light room. The walls were bright blue with tiny little pictures everywhere. A huge bed was placed in the corner with mix and match quilt. Makeup was sprawled around on the cosmetic table with a picture of two blondes smiling. I slowly walked toward the mirror and plucked off the picture. The one on the left was gorgeous. Her hair was pale blonde and her skin was kissed by the sun lightly. Her blue eyes though were as sharp as ice there was so much light and happiness in them. The other, she was different. Her medium blonde hair curled loosely in small ringlets, her features were nice and she would have been pretty but the eyes were violet and full of walls. Me.
She seemed familiar. As if to be an old friend, or a distance dream or memory. Though as I searched through my mind they were all scrambled. Like the Scramble game, where you have all the letters of the word except the last letter. You're mind is raking through it all but you can't find a single thing.
"Erlina?" A small voice said from behind me. I slowly turned around. The girl from the picture. Her eyes brimmed with tears. A small smile slowly rose onto her face. From that smile I knew who she was.
Donia.
She rushed to me and folded me into her arms. I felt small droplets falling on to my shoulder as she sobbed. her whole body shook and I held her close, never wanting to let go. Her head curled into my shoulder as she cried harder. Finally, she lifted her head and untangled herself from my embrace.
"I-i-i-is that really you?" She whispered.
"Who else would it be?" I laughed as tears fell over my face.
"You look different." Donia stated confused.
I laughed. Oh God, it felt good to laugh again. So easy, so natural. It felt like I wasn't fairy or that my heart was tattered. It felt like the old times when we would just laugh, hours for no apparent reason. I remembered how people would glare thinking we were freaks which only had made us laugh more. Even the confused Donia started to giggle.
She grabbed my hands with her tiny ones. Her blue eyes filled the unfiltered joy and mischief. A huge smile spread across her beautiful face.
"I met someone!" She giggled.
I quickly sobered. "What about Jeff?"
"I love Jeff but he isn't Keenan." she said sadly.
I froze. All the thoughts in my mind stopped. Silence and darkness. I started to see stars slowly creep into the edge of my vision. I struggled to breathe. My throat closed up and the only sound that came from me were violent chokes and sobs. Slowly a figure paced into the room and instantly everything was gone except for sunlight and the figure. I was blinded by light but i wasn't deaf.
"You can't help her Erlina, she's mine!" The voice laughed.
Keenan.
