The Contract

I Choose You

"Tell me Little one, what do you want?" said the strange man in the shadows as I sat in the middle of the room on the carpet with my legs under me and my dress poofed around me.

"To not be alone," I replied sincerely.
"Oh? So a friend? Someone to play with?" The strange man asked amusedly as he squatted down facing me, his face hardly showing in the shadows. I thought for a second and decided yes, I would love someone to play with and be only mine. I always had to be the big girl and even when faking being a little girl it didn't seem to ever help me or do me any good. No one ever truly paid attention to me and my father would only condescend me before going back to work.

"I want someone to play with, who will only ever be mine to play with."
"It'll come at a price, Little One. Would you like to choose who you want to play with?" He almost sounded serious warning me of the price. I decided then that I would have him as my playmate. I liked his deep voice and he seemed like he would be fun to cuddle.

I giggled and said, "I choose you!"
My eyes immediately focused on his body stilling in shock and then I saw the smallest of smirks as he bowed his head to me and took my right hand kissing the top of it. Still in the shadows, he replied eloquently, "The contract has been made, Little One."
