09 - CANDY MAN

-SAGE-

" Sage."

" No."

" Please."

" No."

" Sage , please." Elliot whines rolling on the floor.

" No." I whisper hugging my pillow.

" I need to buy a gift for her." he sobs.

" Its your girlfriend then go buy it yourself." I huff looking out of the window.

" But I want you to accompany me." he whines.

" No." I mumble.

" Leave me alone." I whisper as he groans.

" Okay, I'll buy you some candy if you come with me." he says as my ears perk up.

" Really ?" I ask raising an eyebrow at him.

" Yeah." he grins.

" Okay. I'll go." I mumble as he shrieks happily.

" Ten minutes, I'll wait for you in the car." he yells running out of my room.

I sigh changing into a wine-red sweater and black jeans. I wear black heels and put on some makeup . . . just like Sabrina wears hers. I tie my hair neatly into a half updo and puff some perfume on myself.

I wasn't happy with what I saw in the mirror even today but atleast it was way too better than what I saw everyday for two years now.

Grabbing my phone, I quickly rush down the stairs. My breath hitches when I see Shawn, Ethan and Enrique sitting in the living room discussing some hospital stuff.

" My little baby." Shawn smiles as his gaze falls on me.

Enrique glances back at me as his eyes widen, I clutch the material of my sweater feelings his eyes all over me.

" Where's my pretty little doll going ?" Shawn asks as he picks me up spinning me around.

" Elliot. . . shopping." I whisper.

" Oh yeah, he told me about it." Shawn mumbles placing me back on the floor.

" Here." he says handing me his credit card.

" Buy anything you like and eat anything you want." he says kissing my forehead.

" You're looking really adorable today, my love." he says kissing my nose again.

" Buy me some chocolates, little Sage. And don't forget to buy a new voice box for yourself. Maybe a new body would be good too." Ethan laughs as Shawn growls.

I kiss Shawn's chin running out as quick as I could. Ethan knows nothing except pouring acid on wounds.

I rush in the car as Elliot drives us to the mall. He runs from store to store to buy the perfect gift for Annalise, his girlfriend for her birthday.

" Elliot." I whine pulling his hair.

" Yes ?" He grumbles.

" Can I go get some candy ?" I whine as he shakes his head going back to selecting the bracelets.

" Please, I just want a candy." I whisper sadly.

" Let me finish this love." he says stroking my hair.

" Should I go alone ?" I ask as he shakes his head.

" Please, you're taking forever to choose." I whine.

" If you don't come back in fifteen minutes, I'll call 911." he warns.

" Okay." I say dumping the shopping bags on the floor near him and running out.

My eyes sparkle as I see the candy store. It was shockingly empty today, there weren't any customers today making me frown at it.

I shrug walking in the candy store. Picking a paper bag, I stuff in all the varieties I could put my eyes on.

I chew on a gummy bear, walking to the counter where a man was standing with his back facing me.

" Excuse me ?" I mumble.

He groans. A deep and husky groan came as he turned around. My eyes widen as the paper bag falls from my hand. I quickly pick it up from the ground staring at the man in front of me in awe.

My lungs denied to work for me as my mouth opened wide enough for a hen to lay her eggs in.

Holy cupcakes !

He looked quite impressed with my reaction as a c*cky smirk took on his face.

I snapped out of whatever world I was slipping in and glared at his angelic handsome face.

" Candy man, please make me a cotton candy." I say as he glares at me.

" Do I look like a f*cking candy man to you ?" he snaps.

I gasp holding the bag tightly. His husky, thick voice made me feel tingly.

" I'm sorry but can you make me a cotton candy ?" I ask sadly. I wanted a cotton candy badly and I knew I won't be able to have it after this shopping trip.

" Look little candy girl, I'm not who you think I'm am." he says gesturing towards his three piece black suit.

" You aren't allowed here so get out." he snaps pointing towards the door.

" Okay, you mean man. I'll just pay for these." I say gesturing to the bag in my hand.

" I don't want it. Just get lost." he snaps.

" You're rude." I snap angrily.

" So what ?" he grumbles.

" God will be angry with you." I grumble.

" He was never happy with me." he snaps.

" I don't like you." I growl.

" As I have accepted you as my soul mate." he scoffs.

" You're so mean." I mumble.

" I know, right. Sad that we can't do anything about it." he snaps.

" I'll-" I suddenly gasp as blood trickles down from the door behind the counter.

The mystery man turns back, I gasp clutching onto the bag as if it was my weapon when he turns back smirking at me.

" There's the candy man." he smirks.

" Now you little girl, keep that mouth shut and get the f*ck out." he whisper tucking his blazer aside lightly to show his gun.

I gasp at the sight of the gun before turning around and rushing out of the store. I didnt know why I ran, life isn't something interesting which I wanted to live anyway but something about his voice made my body follow his every command.

I sob wiping my tears away before pushing the buttons of the elevator. I pick up a candy, stuffing it my mouth and rolling it on my tongue cherishing the sour flavour.

The elevator doors open as I walk in happily, pushing the button to the second floor.

'' So you won't leave me alone , huh ?" I gasp turning around to see him smirking standing right there.

" You ?" I gasp as he chuckles.

" I can't believe you're so crazy about me that now you're following me everywhere." he laughs.

" How did you get here so quick ?" I gasp as he winks at me.

" You're a mean man." I mumble. He nods in agreement eyeing the candy bag in my hand.

" Can I have one ?" he meekly asks.

" No." I say looking back at the bag before popping another candy in my mouth.

He smirks as he suddenly pushes me against the elevator wall picking me up, wrapping my legs around his waist.

" Let go." I whisper when he places his lips on mine.

I froze. I didn't know what to do. My mind went blank as he sucked on my lips before his tongue entered my mouth. I gasp as he gently bites my lower lip kissing me as if he was thirsty from years.

" So sweet." he whispers pushing his hand under my sweater roaming all over my skin.

He smirks showing me the candy which I was eating now in his mouth.

An unintentional moan escapes my lips as he leans down kissing and s*cking my neck. I moan pulling his hair as he sucks my neck harder.

' Is princess scared ?'

' Enrique Princeton's wife is scared.'

' We'll ruin you forever.'

' He'll hate you after we're done with you.'

' You're broken. You're tainted.'

I gasp pushing him away. This causes me to fall on the floor in a heap as I sob wrapping my arms around myself. I pull my hair as horrible flashbacks fill my mind, the elevator suddenly felt suffocating, too warm and too closed.

" Hey hey." the mystery candy man whispers pulling me on his lap.

" Sshh, no one is going to hurt you." he whispers holding my shaky hands and massaging them gently.

" Leave." I let out shaky sobs trying to get away from him but he wraps his strong arms around me pulling me to his chest.

" I'm here for you, baby girl," he whispers.

" Go away," I growl but he hushes me down pulling me to his chest.

" Shut up and listen to my heartbeat," he whispers rocking me back and forth on his lap.

" Lemme go," I whine when he growls.

" You're not the obedient one, aren't you ?" he growls kissing my neck again.

" Don't touch me," I whisper trying to push him away.

" Don't," he growls.

" I don't like being touched," I yell.

" Everyone likes being touched unless you're Christian Grey," he growls.

" Leave me alone," I yell kicking his abdomen.

What Have I Got Myself Into?
