I stumble for a moment, Unable to find the words to my complete shock. His eyes are a bright shade of amber, I have not seen eyes that have emotion in.. years. He glances down at me for just a moment and gestures for me to enter the classroom, I nod silently and walk in to find my seat.
Is there really somebody else here?
The professor enters the classroom from his usual door, his voice doesn't even sound like words anymore. All I hear is a droaning that seems to drill into the back of your skull, it hurts my head sometimes. The guy is sitting a few rows ahead of me, I cannot focus on anything but him. He is brighter than I am. Its almost as if he has been completely un-affected. I have to stop thinking about him, this isn't right. I don't even know his name. I've never even heard his voice.
I shake off this feeling and try to get back to my work, I feel almost as if I'm just wasting time here. Its not like all this will matter once my mind is wiped clean of every thought, feeling, and memory I've ever had, just like everyone else. He'll be next, too. I sigh and sink into my seat, just the mere thought of this one day getting to me sends me spiraling. I can feel my heart start to pound. Why couldn't they have taken fear away from me first? I lay my head on the back of the chair, closing my eyes and crossing my arms in an attempt to calm down. Just have to wait till class is over.
Before I know it, we are being dismissed and everyone is silently packing their stuff up, almost in unison. Except for me and.. that guy. I cant stop thinking about him. Every time I catch sight of him I feel my heart beating a little faster for just a moment. Its almost as if I'm being drawn to him, I start zipping my bag up and I hear a voice. A clear, and audible voice.
"You see it too, huh?"
