Every Shot Cuts The Deepest Skin
Chapter Five
After a silent yet brooding tour around the prison, Kable led me to my cell.
One bed, a sink and a bucket.
I turned my head to him but he didn't look at me.
"At 5:00am, you will be called to start your training with Ben." He said.
At last I could properly hear his voice.
I couldn't deny the shiver that ran down my spine.
"Did you hear me?" He asked, staring at the floor.
"Yes, I did Kable." I replied, instanly.
"Good, now get some rest. You'll need it."
With that, he walked away leaving me stunned at his behaviour.
Laying on the bed, I couldn't sleep.
My mind replayed the events of my life so far.
In the background, I could hear shouting from other inmates.
With no pillow to block the sounds out, I tried to think of a song to hum to myself.
Once I chosen the right one, I began to open my mouth but suddenly stopped.
Never has a male singing voice taken my breath away, it was so beautiful.
"In the meadows, do I lay my head,
A valley of blooming flowers of colours,
The sun burns above the cloudless sky,
I long to remain in this peaceful world,
Until you, eternal you, comes before me,
With your hair blowing against the cool breeze,
Those beautiful eyes staring at me and no-one else,
You have captured me from the moment I saw you,
My heart and soul flies with yours, they join together forever,
I thank God for bringing me this wonderful creature,
A question escapes from my lips, one to make or break me,
Would you be my lover, my wife, the mother of my children?
We can grow old and fade away from this world, never apart from each other,
Only your answer I wait for my darling,
Give me this one wish to make it come true,
Only you..."
Silence.
I wait for more but none came.
Quiet tears fall down my face.
Who was the mystery singer?
Why did he sing her in the most depressing and grim place I have ever seen?
How could he have such a haunting voice with no melody behind him?
So many questions, would there ever be a answer for them?
Strangely tired all the sudden, I slowly shut my eyes and fell in a deep sleep.
The loud opening of my cell door awoke me.
There standing was Kable, the darkness shadowing his face.
"It's 5am, time to get up and start your training." He said, turning away.
Swinging my legs to the floor, I rubbed my eyes and puffed out a sigh.
I got up to wash my face, about to dry it with my shirt but Kable gave me a towel.
Using it quickly, I gave it back to him but he shook his head.
"No, that's yours now." He said.
"Oh, thank you." I replied, folding it.
"Let's go to the gym."
Without a another word, I walked out of the cell and followed him.
He was so much taller than me, reaching over six foot perhaps.
A few glances of light showed his face, his eyes were a dull grey.
A long nose, a powerful jaw-line and lips that were tempting to touch.
He wore a black shirt that didn't mask his very good muscalur body.
His trousars made his legs even longer, black trainers that were starting to fade away but still fitted him.
As we turned a corner, I eyed his butt.
Mmm, nice!
I quickly looked away before he saw me.
Arriving at the gym, I saw Ben along with a few other newcomers like me.
"Thank you, Kable, for bringing in her for me." He said, with a nod.
He replied it, then looked at me.
Those eyes burning into my own for a brief few moments, then he walked away from me.
I watched him disappear from sight, my body still shivered even when I sat down.
Training was hard and unbearable.
Everything in my body ached.
There was so much to learn and do that at times I forgot which I got a telling off by Ben.
He was a strict teacher, even if you did a good thing there was no postive comment.
Breaks were only twenty-five minutes, lunch was a little longer which I was thankful for that.
Sometimes other Slayers came to watch us, laughing and poking fun at us.
I got the worst as I was the only female, sexist jokes filled my ears while fighting my way through this.
But it was Kable that made me stop and stare a few times.
The sun made him such a mysterious presence, the way he watched me sent even more shivers down my spine.
Though he didn't come near me throughout the day, he being there was enough to say I could do this.
Once the training had ended for the day, I headed to the showers and washed my tired body.
I laid my head against the wall while the water splashed on me, the touch was blissful.
Finishing off, I turned off the taps and wrapped a towel over me.
Then I heard someone come in.
Knowing better to walk away, I crept quietly to see who it was.
All I could see was a very firm butt and a broad back.
Suddenly dry mouthed, I swallowed every time I got the chance.
He slowly turns around, I gasp in shock.
It was Kable!
My God, I want him so much!
He leans his head against the rushing water, shutting his eyes.
Silently admiring the stunning sight before me, I groaned softly to myself.
Reopening his eyes, they instanly fall on me!
We didn't move or say a word.
I stepped out to let him see me properly, the towel falls from my wet body.
Cursing in my mind, my heart pounded as he eyed the sight before him.
All the sudden, he comes towards me.
Each step is slow and effective, never had I felt like this before.
Standing before me, towering whatever height I was, he bends down to gather my towel and place it back in my hands.
"I'll see you tomorrow at the same time." He said.
I nodded, knowing that any second he will walk away.
But I was wrong.
He rose his hand to cup my cheek, stroking it softly.
The touch made my body tremble, it didn't last long though.
Turning away, Kable turns off the taps and leaves the shower room.
Once again, I'm left stunned and breathless of what just happened.
Gathering myself to reality, I wrapped my towel around me again and went back to my cell.
To my surprised discovery, folded clothes were on my bed.
I picked them up, sniffing any kind of scent that would be left.
None was there to my disappointment.
Quickly putting them on, I folded my towel and laid on my bed.
Not waiting for the mystery singer, I shut my eyes and dreamed too many of just one person that was making a effect on me.
Kable.
