Chapter 39: 36. Bitten flesh
Yuree
I opened my mouth and put the long piece of meaty length deep into my mouth .
It's flavour was so good !
" Is it good , Nymph ? " Bee asked and I nodded my head smiling with the meaty length still in my mouth .
Bee smiled and moved his hips and I took in more of the meaty length . I was just savoring it , rolling my tongue on its side and on its round head .
Then I took a big bite and tore it in two .
" Ahh , " Bee said sadly and I smiled again at his seemingly dejected eyes , " It was so good , I wished it hadn't ended ."
" It's okay , Bee ," I said chewing the meaty pieces in my mouth ," There's more coming up . It's not over yet ."
" Really , Nymph ? " he asked expectantly and I nodded my head whilst holding the other half piece of sausage I had picked from my plate and bitten .
We were in the living room , Bee and i were sitting on the sofa . Bee sitting more at the edge though .
He sat transfixed at the TV screen watching the advertisement for spicy soup , waiting for his movie to continue .
Which is what he had wanted, to begin with .
He had lifted me onto the sofa and told me he wanted to watch a movie .
I had been okay with this and after flipping through some boring channels , I found an adventure romance movie .
Bee had instantly glued his eyes to the screen , whilst continuously asking me question upon question and I became acquainted with his passion for films .
But then I had gotten hungry a few minutes ago and had asked him to bring me my breakfast from the dining room . Bee had brought his food too and had eaten it after removing his mask , then after finishing , he put his mask back on .
Currently I sat eating my sausage and toast , while occasionally glancing at the screen to see if the movie had returned .
" mmm , it's still not back ." Bee said with a frown and I shook my head wryly .
" Just a few more minutes until the advertisement closes , okay ? " I said to pacify him ," I never realised you could be so impatient . "
" I am not , it is just ... I merely wish to know what happens to Damien and Isha at the end of the film . "
Bee said still frowning at the TV . Interesting enough , the film we were watching was also a boy love movie . Which made it more interesting for me and Bee seemed to not have any problem with it . He seemed enthusiastic , I thought .
" They live happily ever after . " I replied and he looked at me with a curious look .
" Have you seen it before ? " he asked but I shook my head , " then how do you know , how it ends ? " he asked me .
"I'm just guessing but usually these stories have a happy ending ." I explained and he frowned in thought .
" It's back " I said looking at the television screen but Bee didn't glance at it . Instead he looked at me .
" Nymph , it's time for you to bathe . " he said solemnly and I almost choked on my toast.
" What ? " I croaked .
" It is time for you to bathe , it's the middle of the afternoon . " he said ," Let us go to the bathroom ."
" Wait , wait Ummm , I " think of an excuse fast , I told myself fiercely," what about the beer ? "
He tilted his head in confusion and I pointed to the beer bottle on the dining room table .
" You said you were going to try it , remember ? " I said with a small smile . This was just stalling for time , I knew that it would be short but I could not let Bee help me bathe myself .
It would feel too ... weird .
Bee looked at the bottle and got up , he walked towards the dining room table and picked the full bottle . He unfastened his mask but held it with one hand on the left side of his face as he had when he ate his breakfast .
He tilted his head and frowned at the liquid inside and then he unceremoniously put the bottle on his lips and ... finished the whole contents in five seconds .
I was stunned , he just downed the whole 1.5 litres like it was half a cup of juice !
Was he an alcoholic then ? I thought sadly .
" Bee , how did it taste ? " I asked apprehensively, I really didn't like the idea of Bee drinking beer like water . I didn't know if I would be comfortable with being around him if he did . Maybe I would be but it would be hard if he started being like mom and Gus .
Bee looked at the empty bottle with a deep frown before looking up at me .
" I did not find anything pleasurable about it ." he said ," I can drink it , but i don't think I like it."
" That's okay , remember what mom said ; it's your choice . " I said smiling widely .
He didn't like it ! I sighed internally , feeling immense relief . I hadn't realised how worried I had been he would like beer . I didn't want to see him be like-
" Nymph , here is your crutch ." Bee said , bringing it to me , he had his mask back on . " It's now time for you to bathe . "
Oh gosh , I thought with mortification . Then I had an idea , it was not a solution but definitely a better alternative .
" Okay , Bee but I want to dry clean myself today , not fully bath in water . " I said smiling . This way , I could keep some body cover on and that , was definitely a better alternative than being nude .
I would bath later at night fully or maybe tomorrow before anyone woke up . For as long as it took , I thought fiercely . There was no way I could be naked with Bee .
Bee tilted his head and frowned ," Are you sure ? " he asked and I nodded my head . I was absolutely sure !
Bee nodded his head slowly and then he helped me up onto my feet .
" Oh , so that is how it ends ." Bee said grimly looking behind me and I turned to see what he was looking at .
It was the movie , it had just reached the end and apparently I had been wrong . It didn't have a happy ending .
One of the main characters sat on a grassy plain weeping with his love's dead body on his lap . It was heart retching to look at and I immediately turned away .
" I guess I was wrong ." I said quickly , " Let's go , now ."
Bee looked at me and then the screen , before helping me all the way to the bathroom.
In the bathroom ; I sat on the edge of the bathtub biting my lip so hard I thought I could taste blood .
This was so ... bizarre .
" Nymph , please lift up your arm ." Bee said whilst holding a wet towel .
I shivered and bit my lip harder and I definitely tasted blood but still I complied and lifted my arm up .
Bee held it up with one hand and slowly wiped my arm with the moist towel in his other hand . His face close to my skin and making sure not to leave a spot that wasn't wiped .
I sucked on my bleeding lip anxiously . I was wearing nothing but my boxer shorts at the moment . Bee had helped me take off my other clothes . And that had been mortifying enough that I had wished to die or disappear !
Bee had then filled the bath tub with a small body of water , where he dipped the towel and then making sure it was moist enough , he slowly and I mean SLOWLY wiped my body .
He had started with my head , then down to my neck and he was presently working on my arms .
" Bee , are you sure , you don't want to wait outside . I could try and bathe myself ." I suggested but Bee shook his head, again .
" No , the doctor said I was to help you . As did Mrs Rosi . " he said and then he dipped the towel back into the water .
" Okay , I know what they said but ... I can clean myself . " I lied with a pout , " I really can . "
" That is not true ." he said slowly ," You can not clean yourself when your arm is hurting ."
" Okay ," I said accepting defeat , " Fine , but when I get better you have to - ahh ! "
I drew up short as Bee wipes my chest and coincidentally rubbed my nipple . A tingly sensation ran through my body starting from the pink nub .
" Are you okay Nymph ? " Bee asked me and I swallowed but still nodded my head , whilst closing my eyes and taking deep breaths .
Oh my gosh , I thought miserably , I can't believe I'm sitting in the bathroom getting cleaned by a guy I don't know , who wears a mask and likes movies and ... wait a minute ...
Likes movies ?
An image flashed into my mind , me at the park with Terry , a stranger spying on us behind a tree , a black cloaked stranger who ... liked movies .
That's where I had met Bee !
I realised , he had been the guy who thought we were watching a movie on Terry's phone .
" Bee , " I said suddenly , he looked up and I was one hundred percent sure it was the same guy . He had the same dark exterior , gem like eyes and I couldn't believe I hadn't remembered him before .
But then again , I had been busy ignoring alot of boys that week so it was no surprise I would forget him .
" Yes , Nymph ? " Bee asked and I opened my mouth but closed it again .
" Nevermind " I mumbled and he frowned but nodded his head and went back to wiping my abdomen .
Just because I remembered when I had met him didn't mean I knew him , I thought , there can't be anything between us and I didn't know whether he was into guys anyway .
But he liked the BL movie , a voice said in my head .
Liking a movie and liking someone are two different things , I thought back .
" Nymph , should I clean here ? " he said snapping me out of my thoughts , I looked down to see where he was pointing and became consumed with embarrassment . My cheeks felt hot and I felt spittle in my throat .
Of all the times ... to get a hard on , why did my body choose now !
Bee looked up at me whilst the hand holding the moist towel was pointing at my crotch with my stiff member standing at half mast .
" No , definitely not ." I said quickly and adjusted myself to hide my erection .
Bee frowned but nodded his head and then went to wiping my thighs , " Can I wipe here ? " he asked slowly moving the towel across my middle thigh and I shivered .
" It's okay but can you clean faster ? " I said through gritted teeth .
Bee proceeded to wipe faster , his hand now curving along my flesh and leaving me moist and cool .
The towel wiped behind my thigh , moving so high up it almost reached my butt .
I internally writhed at the sensual stimulations .
I couldn't take it anymore !
" Um Bee , I think that's okay ." I said breathlessly , I felt slight moisture on my eyes as I fought the subtle flames of passion that he had sparked .
" But I have not finished yet . Mrs Rosi will not be pleased . " Bee said and I bit my lip , only to wince slightly as i bit my wounded flesh . I had bitten my lip too many times.
I bowed my head , and sighed . Mom wouldn't be happy he hadn't done what he was supposed to even though it wasn't his fault .
It was clearly my fault for not being in control of my body better . But I could handle it , I thought , I just had to bare it that was all .
" Okay , Bee you can ... Bee ? What's wrong ?" I asked as Bee moved away from me and went to the toilet .
He opened the closed lid and pulling his mask off , he dropped in his head . Retching sounds of vomiting soon came after .
I moved closer along the bath tub until I was next to him and rubbed his back soothingly but I felt a slight bit of indignation .
This was because he had drunk beer ! I thought savagely , when Gus got back home, I would make sure he never even spoke about or mentioned it again , when Bee was in the room .
Bee heaved harder and spewed out more vomit , his hands holding the sides of the toilet for support .
I rubbed his back more and sighed , I would have plenty of time for feeling mad but right now I was concerned .
It looked like Bee was vomiting out everything he had eaten .
I wondered if he could cook though , because he would definitely be hungry after throwing up his breakfast .
" It's okay ... just let it all out ." I said encouragingly whilst rubbing his back until he finally stopped heaving out his guts .
I moved gingerly and filled one of the cups by the sink with water so he could rinse his mouth .
" Bee ,you should have this . To rinse your mouth ." I said nudging him with the cup .
Bee held up his hand and took the cup ... then he crushed it like a tin can .
His hand just folded over the metal cup and it bended into submission under his strength , spilling out the water I had got and making a puddle on white tiled floor .
" Umm Bee , why did you ... you..." I trailed off my eyes looking at Bee with wide eyes . Because Bee didn't look like Bee anymore atleast not I had ever seen him .
He was grey for one thing . All the light creamyness of his skin seemed to have been drained out of him and he looked like a person made of granite .
His face was set in a scowling growl as his teeth stood bared and he breathed hoarsely .
His eyes were tinged with a bit of grey and there was a dead look inside I had never seen before .
Who was this guy ? a small thought flickered in my mind but was quickly put off as Bee extended his hand towards me .
I looked at his face , he looked so starved , so hungry . But his eyes were dead looking and glazed , all life seemed to have been drained out of them .
" Bee , what are you - ah " I froze as Bee grabbed his reaching hand and pulled it back . It was if he was fighting with himself .
" Nym..ph ." he said hoarsely and deeply and I snapped out of my dazed state .
" Bee , what is it ? What's wrong ? " I asked moving closer but he shook his head .
" Don't ... come ... close ." he said through gritted teeth . He grunted and grabbed his chest with both hands and tore through his shirt with fingers . The black shirt he had been wearing was torn asunder .
" Bee , stop ! What's wrong ? " I said but he shook his head and tried to move to the door on his knees .
I reached out and grabbed his shoulder , " Bee , what's - Bee ! "
Bee stood up and swatted my hand away .
I held it in disbelief . He had never hit me before , what was wrong with him ?
" Bee ,what is wrong ? " I said frantic but Bee just gritted his teeth and tried to take a step but he collapsed onto his knees . I immediately joined him and went down on my knees .
It hurt like Hell ! but I needed to check up on Bee . Something was definitely wrong with him .
I moved next to Bee as he knelt on the floor , his hands on his chest and his breathing heavy .
" Bee , what is it ? why are you grey and so -"
" Need ... to eat ." Bee said through his clenched jaw .
" Okay , there is still some apples in the fridge ... I think atleast . I'll go get them ." I said and tried to stand up but Bee reached out and grabbed my shoulder ... my bad shoulder .
I cried out in pain and Bee lessened his right grip . But he didn't let go of me .
" No ... need to...eat " Bee tried to speak but he seemed to be struggling with something really intense , " to...eat ... flesh ."
I froze in horror .
What did he just say ? I thought bewildered , eat ... flesh ? What did that even mean ?
" Ahhhh ! " Bee cried out in a horrid sound and then he suddenly had a spasm and bounced back onto the tub .
His back hit the side of the tub full force and I heard a tile crack .
" ...so ... hungry ... please ...help ." Bee said clawing at his chest again and I saw he was cutting off pieces of flesh with his nails .
He raised his hand and put a piece in his mouth . I quickly turned away , shocked beyond belief.
He was eating himself ! I thought with horror , then I heard him spit it out .
He groaned and clawed the carpet on the floor. He tossed his head to the side and shook it violently .
He was the image of suffering and I felt my heart break .
I didn't understand it , what was wrong with him ? I thought desperately , he had been fine a few minutes ago . What was happening to him ?
" Please ... hungry ..." Bee said hoarsely and he growled , I looked at him and bit my already bitten raw lip .
He said he wanted flesh , which if I was correct , meant he wanted meat . But there was no more meat in the house . Mom had said she would go grocery shopping tomorrow and get some but looking at Bee I didn't know what state he would be like tomorrow .
Think , I told myself , where can I get some meat ? I remembered my sausage down stairs but I had thrown it away after eating only half of it .
So now what ? i thought , " Where can I ... then an idea came .
It was not pleasing at first but as I looked at Bee as he gripped the carpet and tore his shirt more , the idea became more probable .
I quickly shook my head and steeled myself . Bee was hurting , I wouldn't let him hurt if I could help ... no matter what I had to do .
I moved up towards Bee and sat next to him . He was still shaking his head and groaning .
His mask was off and I could see the cut on his face , but that was nothing to think about now .
I grabbed Bee's head and held it still , despite my protesting paining shoulder .
I had to do this ! I thought severely
" Bee , I have some ," oh gosh I can't believe I'm saying this ," some flesh for you to eat . I want you to eat it , okay . Just so you can feel better . "
Bee groaned but gave a curt nod and that's I needed .
I moved one off my hands from his face and put my wrist on his lips .
" Bite . " I said resolutely and Bee opened his mouth and bit my arm .
I moved my other hand and put my wrist in my mouth to stop from crying out in pain .
Bee then lifted up his hands and held my shaking wrist firmly in his mouth , his eyes closed .
I knew he would eat my flesh , since he had tried to eat his own flesh , I had guessed he was cannibalistic . Is that why he thought he was a monster ? , I thought fleetingly .
I winced as he bit into my flesh harder and he chewed off my skin .
I felt tears in my eyes and an unimaginable agony spread from my arm but I did not draw my hand back. I doubted I could have drawn it back anyway , with Bee holding it firmly in place .
I saw a drop of my blood slip off a corner of Bee's mouth . I then felt Bee bite into my inner tissue and start sucking my wrist . I felt my blood slowly sip out of me .
Oh gosh it hurts , I thought agonizingly , but ... it's okay . I could take it .
I bit my wrist harder as the pain increased from insufferable to outright agony .
" Bee ... please stop ." I said after a while , I couldn't take anymore and I felt a slight lightheadedness coming on . He was taking too much , " Bee ... please ... I can't give anymore ."
Bee still sucked on though and I decided to just give him time . He would let go on his own , I thought .
I closed my eyes and lay next to the tub whilst Bee held my wrist .
I just needed to rest a bit , I thought dazedly , I would ... just close my eyes and open them again when Bee was done .
I placed my head into Bee's shoulder and my mind drifted into the darkness .
