I never really cared much for people, but looking at the small-framed delicate morsel in front of me, I wanted to know. Wanted to know who he was, what his name was... what he did that was so bad that he got sent here. I needed to know... it was going to grow into an obsession I knew that much.
I pulled Fire out, and he warmed my palm. He always fit in my hand perfectly, like he was meant too. I remember when I first got him.
I was 11. It was a hot summer's day, and I had been hanging out in the back alleys. I wasn't much for company. I still am not. I prefer to be alone, or with my victims. That was where I really belonged. I know it seems so messed up... but I was born to do this. To rape, molest, and set fire to the whole damn world. It's who I was.
Anyway, I digress. I was sitting on one of the old tin garbage cans, minding my own business and playing with matches. How cliche. I was going to burn the skin on my wrist just because I felt cold. I was always cold in the summer and warm in the winter. I never understood that.
A man with dark shades and bleach blonde hair approached me. If I could hazard a guess I would say his eyes were electric blue even though I never saw them. And to this day... I was right.
He moved closer. He was wearing suede gloves and a suit. It seemed odd to me... a man in a suite with SUEDE gloves in the middle of summer. Today it was a scorching 98 degrees.
Something was weird with this man.
He stopped before me, eyeing me up in down. Old, ripped jeans and tattered Blink-182 T-shirt. One that I had gotten from goodwill. They were a pretty decent band though, but it was just a shirt.
"What do you believe in?"
His voice was deep and dark, something menacing within it... tempting me to move closer. I had no idea what he wanted, but he gave off... some kind of sexual tension vibes. Like he wanted to eat me.
I was a kid, so I thought I'd just be a smartass...
"I believe in you leaving me the hell alone." I said, narrowing my blue eyes at him. What did this guy want... his aftershave wafted through the heat and crawled up my nose, making me dizzy.
He moved quickly, looking mean, but he seemed to be smirking. Suddenly I was pushed up against a brick wall one hand at my waist the other pulling at my unruly blonde hair.
"I'll leave you alone... if you answer my question kid. Now... one more time: What do you believe in?" he said smoothly, nonchalantly.
It was like he didn't care... that he was a grown man pushing an 11-year-old boy up against a wall... and his hand...
His hand was... wandering.
It felt weird, a guy touching me down there, rubbing over my jeans. But it wasn't wrong... in my mind. A little scary and unnerving. But never wrong.
He pulled my head back and opened his mouth, biting at my throat. It was animalistic... like he wanted to literally eat me alive
"You taste like ash, like fire and sin." He made an obscene groaning noise as I felt his own penis pushing at mine between our clothing, he was... humping me. Thrusting against my significantly smaller body. I was so lost in my own head that I didn't realize I was getting hard. And... it felt good.
"What do you believe in?" He whispered into my jaw. I swallowed and tried to push him away, but the heat in my own loins was too much.
"N-nothing. I believe in nothing." I grunted out. My mask was slipping, and he was unraveling me.
He kissed my jaw, moving up to my mouth, his lips hovering over mine. He took a breath.
"Perfect."
Closing the distance his lips met mine, pressing forcefully as he rutted against me harder and the hand in my hair tightened. He was moaning and I was laying there, pressed up against the wall.
Between a rock and hard place. Literally.
I felt pleasure building up inside of me, in my center before I let out a low groan as I felt myself become wet and sticky. He looked at me...
Seeing my bruised lips, messed up hair, and darkened eyes. I was panting softly when he pulled away.
"You're going to light up this whole damn world. You my boy... are going to set it on fire." He smirked before walking away... I wanted to scream at him, yell! Tell him to wait, and come back and explain.
But I was smart and stayed silent.
"Oh." He sounded thoughtful as he turned, throwing something at me. I caught it, metal in my hands. Looking down, in delight, I realized it was a lighter. A steel Zippo, plain but clean. I stared at it, my eyes lighting up.
"What is this?" I asked still looking down at the beautiful shine in my hands.
"Something to believe in." And with that I was alone in the alleyway. My whole world laying gently, warming my skin, my hands.
Everything changed that day. I started my first fire the following weekend and I loved it. I was able to jack off while the papers burned before me. It was like every time I set fire to something it set fire to my soul.
Just like I wanted to set fire to the boy before me.
"Hey!" I turned my head slowly, unwilling to tear my eyes away from the small beauty. I looked and saw a large black man walking towards me.
I already didn't like him. The whole point of this 'community service' was supposed to be that these people cared enough that they wanted to work with us. That they thought we could be turned better and that we didn't need prison. This guy didn't look like he gave two shits. I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.
“You must be Mr. Grinder. They just forwarded me your records. Apparently someone screwed up and didn’t send them in with the rest... Where’s your jumper? You need to go put it on. Come on.”
I smirked. I wasn't going to follow him. I had no desire too... really any desire for much of anything really. Well... except...
The boy with the blue eyes was looking up at the sky. I followed his line of vision and heard a loud crash just as large, what appeared to be, hail stone landed at my feet, white dust settling onto my combat boots.
I stepped back. Hearing nothing. Everything had gotten quiet without me realizing it, and the second that piece of rock slammed to the ground worshipping my feet sound exploded. It was unnerving and obscene to my ears. People were running, that tall lanky kid was already halfway across the area towards the community center building. The large black man was in the lead, pounding the pavement so hard I thought it would break under him.
The girl I had ignored was cursing, screaming obscenities and she ran, trying to avoid the impending doom that had befallen us. I heard car alarms wailing and everyone screaming. I quickly regained my senses and started to run towards the building, way behind the others. I was only slightly concerned. But I knew I needed to run, get to shelter, although logically, even if we did make it into the building the stones were so large they could, and would penetrate. Probably killing us all anyways.
Such a morbid thought. I saw the small quiet girl moving quickly. She was running and running and it woke me up. I started to break away across the blacktop. Running hard. I saw the kid trip over the guy that was weird, I had no idea how he had gotten on the ground but I saw the beautiful boy fall over him. For a second I was worried he wouldn't make it... and he would die here before I got my hands on him. But I almost sighed with relief as he pushed himself up and kept on moving.
I was somewhere else completely now, watching him run, that tight delicious ass. I was staring blantanly. I blinked once and saw myself thrusting myself deep into his body, his milky thighs, so smooth, spread wide almost to breaking point as I slammed inside of him as hard as I could. My fingerless-gloved hands digging into his skin, nails bleeding him out, to see the red, red, red of his blood run, run, run down his thighs. I moved my hands back, as I continued to fuck him leisurely, through my hair, slicking my blonde hair back out of my darkened blue eyes. He was crying out, begging me to stop. But I wouldn't. And Fire was purring appreciatively in my pocket as I stole the most beautiful thing about this boy...
His innocence.
I blinked again and I was back, I had somehow ended up even farther away and a car was currently blocking my path. I sped up, jumping landing on the trunk of the car, running all the way up and over it to jump off the front easily.
I pushed myself even harder as I made myself finally reach the steps where everyone was waiting, panicking... dying.
I heard that stupid girl screaming again, but she made sense this time...
"What the hell dude?! This doesn't even make sense!? Why the fuck would you lock the door?"
Why would he lock the door? Especially if he was just going to have me come back in and put that uniform on? It didn't matter though. I looked over to the boy.
I was close to him, so close I could almost reach out and touch him. He was covering his mouth with his small soft hands in terror. He really thought he was going to die... but it wasn't unjust. We could after all... you know? Die.
He turned his back to me as he was almost hit by an ice stone, nearly ending his existence. He cried out, "“Mother of God!” A womanly shriek leaving those perfect, perfect lips as he fall backwards into me. My hands went up instantly to his hips, steadying him, my breath against his smooth hair.
My eyes darkened, and I pictured him on his knees, my cock in that amazingly tight mouth. He was sobbing and crying, blood running from a cut in his temple where I had hit him, a bruise already darkening his left cheek. His lips were stretched obscenely around my dick... he was so beautiful when he was broken.
I came back down to Earth as he flung himself from my body, running, right into the black guy's back. I groaned aloud at the loss of his small figure against my larger one.
This was how I was going to die? My biggest regret would be not meeting him sooner. Not being able to take him, to destroy everything about it. To burn and burn and burn. It's like what that man told me long ago... it was something to believe in.
I took a step forward and saw how beautiful he was, I wanted to see his eyes light up in terror, not because he was going to die, but because I had my hands around that pretty little throat and I was bruising his flesh painfully, consuming him and taking everything away. I nearly reached out my hand to him, to steady him again, but I didn't. I just thought about how I would miss him.
And how strange is that? How can I miss something that I never even had? How could I-?
