Because I hate you.

Mark - Lovers Pain

As I came to, I heard some noise then I felt Duct tape on my mouth and around my wrist and ankles.

"Ahh you're awake," Said a voice. My vision was blurry but I could see the silouete of a female figure.

"I thought I might have hit you too hard, kind of like Libbie here.... That wouldn't have been very fun." she said.

Why was that voice so familiar, and what was that noise? The figure walked to another figure cowering in the corner.

Lily! My vision was clear enough to reconize her features; her green eyes were wide and fearful, and she was looking at the figure squatting down next to her. I realized the noise was Lily whimpering under the duct tape on her mouth.

"So now that you're all awake, who wants to go first... No one? Well then I'll have to pick someone." She looked at me then back to Lily.

"You know she wouldn't be here if you hadn't convinced her to... Didn't even invite her, no point." She said rolling a sharp looking object around her hands. Anger flashed though me.

"Don't you dare hurt her?" I tried to yell but it my words were muffled by the tape

Lily squeezed her eyes shut, as the figure raised the object to her cheek, and pressed against the skin until there was red liquid... No blood. I writhed and thrashed about to get out of these bindings, I tried to yell to tell the girl to stop but it just came out as muffled grunts and cries. I couldn't bare this sight and squeezed my eyes shut. This made her laugh but she stopped all the same. She got up and walked back towards me; and looked at me for minute.

"No you're going to be last Mark... I want you to watch." She hissed pointing the thing at me.

I could see her clearly now she was tall and slender, her face was covered with some kind of scarf like thing and her hair was up in a ponytail. I could see she had dark brown hair but I couldn't see her eyes she was too far away. She stepped over me, and as a result, I heard stifled sobbing come from behind me. Lily opened her eyes and looked at me. Silent tears began to run down her face. I wanted to tell her she would be all right and that we would be okay.

"I think you would be a great start... I'm going to go get better tools for this, don't go anywhere." The girl said with a laugh. Then she left the room. I immediately began wiggling out of my bondage; because she used duct tape and I was sweating, I could easily escape its clutches. After I got the tape off my wrists I worked on the tape on my legs and mouth. Lily did the same; so when I was done I decided to help Millie, who was behind me. She was still very weak and she had more duct tape on her than me, but I managed to get it off. Millie bolted out the door as soon as I got the tape on her mouth.

"Millie!! NO!" I hissed

Lily was still trying to get the tape off her legs and wrists. I quickly got them off then gently pulled the tape off her lips. She flung her arms around me and she kissed me, holding me almost as tight as when she had seen the bodies. I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her back. Then she pulled away looking me in the eyes.

"I love you, I always have" she whispered

"I-." I started

"Shh! We need to move." She said hosting herself up and pulling me out the door with her.
