085: Confusion

The rain is starting to go away. I kind of feel like I'm going away too. My head at least. Maybe I just need to sleep more. I do feel awfully tired. I think I'm not sleeping too well. Too many things running around loose in my head.

Private to Thomas, but very hackable

Thomas? I need your help maybe. Can you talk to me here?

You are just a person.

So many people don't see that. You do.

I'm sorry I can't stay and keep reminding you.

I'm so sorry, Thomas.

Rain...why do you think the bad men are coming?

I can... I can hear them. They're everywhere in my head.

Like all my head is them, everywhere.

And I can see him and hear my daddy and see everything - all the bad and scary things and...

Thomas, I can't - I'm too scared. I can't make my head stop and there're voices and it hurts and I just... I can't feel safe. Not even in my house.

I need to hide somewhere.

Stay there. I'm coming.

Thomas?

But it will hurt you.

No. It will help you.

Okay.

If you're sure.

I'm hiding in my bedroom.

I'll be there soon. They won't do anything when I'm around.

Okay.

Hurry then?

Already halfway.

You're very very fast, Thomas. I didn't know you were so fast.

Very.

Just come in when you get here, okay?

Will do.

Rain stayed curled up in the small space between the bed and the wall in her bedroom, clinging to her network device with one hand and her batteries with the other.

The voices in her head were so loud they made everything hurt.

Thomas remembered his way to Rain's room almost sub-consciously, even though he'd only been there once and he hadn't been in his right mind.

He felt her presence before he saw her and he eased himself down upon the bed and peered over the edge at her.

"Well, hey there."

Rain heard him come in and could still feel enough to know it was him. She peeked up at him, nervously. "Hi, Thomas. You're very nice to come."

He slid down beside her, making the space between the wall and the bed rather cramped.

"Can't think of anywhere else I'd rather be."

It was odd, but being near him? She could feel her brain calming. Everything seemed to settle and become more clear.

Rain let out a shuddering breath and rested her head against the wall. "My head got so scary, Thomas, but it doesn't feel as bad now."

"Good," He said, and he meant it. His demon, no he could sense her pain and anguish...and her fear. Once, he would have fought the beast back down, but that was in the past. He turned a bit, so as to reach her, and leaned against her, pressing his mouth to hers, letting the demon lap at the turmoil of her mind.

Rain gasped in pleasure, her mind quieting even more, and she reached out to touch him, the network device dropping from her hand. "Thomas, yes."

He slid his arms around her and rose and he lifted her, placing her gently on the bed and moving down on top of her, his mouth never leaving hers. He let the demon have his way with her, reveling in the madness-laced life flowing into him.

After she'd fallen into sleep, he drew the blanket up around her and took up a nearby chair as sentry. He may need to feed, and he may have loved every moment of the evening he'd just spent with her, but he'd be damned if the 'bad men' would get her in her sleep.

[ooc: hope that was okay?]
