5 - Stay

I decided to ignore him for the rest of the trip up the elevator.

He glanced at me and looked back down, a tear running down his cheeks.

I decided to hand him a tissue but he denied it and I felt horrible, I don't want him to feel sad. He has to spend the rest of his life here and I'm probably going to take care of him for the rest of my life. That is, if he doesn't murder me.

The elevator door opened and Daniel started pushing the wheelchair forward.

"Alright, here's the cell. Lily could you please unlock it?" Daniel asked.

I hesitated, slowly nodding while pushing the key into the large metal door with bars at face height. I turned the key and used all my strength to push the door open. I let Daniel in first with the wheelchair, followed by me trying to walk confidently into the room, but miserably failed.

"Well try to get to know Luke and call me if anything happens, okay?" Daniel said as he walked out of the cell, thankfully leaving the door open.

I looked around the room trying to distract myself from the fact that I'm in a room with a murderer.

"So how are you?" I heard the grin in his voice, he was being cheeky again.

"I'm okay." I replied. "Do you know what I hate, Lily?" He started.

I shook my head as an answer. I was facing away as I didn't want to see his face.

"I hate it when people lie" he whispered as I felt hot breath at the back of my neck. I didn't dare to turn around. How he escaped the wheelchair and the straight jacket is the least of my concerns. It's the fact that he escaped.

"Now let me try again. How are you?" He whispers into my ear as he puts a strand of my hair behind my ear.

I didn't know what to say. I remained quiet for a minute until I heard another whisper.

"Are you afraid?" he chuckled.

I nodded my head, already regretting that I'm admitting this to him.

"Why? I won't hurt you, babe." He whispered.

He uses both hands to grab my waist and turn me around to face him.

I look up at him in terror, shaking uncontrollably.

He looks at me for a second and his evil grin was replaced with a frown.

"Just call whats his face to come and save you, I always screw things up." He hangs his head down in shame.

"No no no, I would never" I claimed trying to comfort him somehow without touching him. "I'm apologising in advance Miss Feya. The things I do, I don't really know why I do them." Luke said.

He actually called me 'Miss Feya'...

"I'll help you get through this, we start counselling tomorrow and you can tell me everything" I smiled. I was less afraid of this Luke but I wanted to get out before the other one returns. Luke sits on the side of his bed with his face buried in his hands. Before I walked out the door, I glanced at him and I couldn't help but go up to him and rub his back and say "It will be okay"

I walked towards the door but something stopped me.

"Stay here"

I turned around to see Luke with tears filling his eyes, looking up to me.

"Stay?"

"Please, I need someone" he begged.

I sighed and sat down next to him on the bed.

He was still looking down with tears in his eyes.

He grabbed my hand that was closest to him, I flinched but thankfully he didn't see me.

He brought my hand up to his mouth and pressed his lips to it.

It felt awkward but I just left it, not wanting to upset him.

He lowered my hand and caressed it with his thumb and he smiled, not evilly but happily.

He looked at me in the eye, still smiling and I couldn't help but to smile back, and I meant it. After a while, he yawned and lied down, slowly closing his eyes.

I sat there for what felt like an eternity until Daniel came in, shocked by what he saw.

"H-ho-how?" He stuttered but I gestured for him to keep quiet.

I took one last look at the sleeping boy and smiled.

Standing up, Daniel was still in shock. I closed the big metal door and locked it.

"Go ahead" I laughed.

"How did he get out of the straight jacket? And how the heck were you just casually sitting there right next to him?" The words came out so quickly.

"Well," I sighed. "I took him out of the straight jacket so that he could have a rest" I lied.

"And well, he asked me to stay with him for a while so I did" I chuckled.

"Wow, you are a brave one ay?" Daniel smiles.

I laugh because I know that I'm the complete opposite of brave.
