A/N: Okay, so, I know it's been a while. I know. I do. There is no excuse. I'm sorry. In the meantime, I have been working on all sorts of things. The only issue is that I'm working on so many and they're more in depth so yeah…. One day, hopefully soon, you will be getting all the words.

As, always, shout out to Johanna-002 and nofearonlylove. I would be more product… lost! I would be lost without them. ; )

I Can't Breathe Hug

I don't even know how I got here. Well, I know how I ended up in prison, but now I'm in the bathroom puking up bile because it's all that's left in my stomach. I'm sweating and shivering fluctuating between boiling hot and chilled to the bone. I just want it to be over or at least to be unconscious until it passes. There's no way that I'd be lucky enough to die while I was out.

Moments pass - I don't know how long. Suddenly, there's arms - pulling me away from the stall and dragging me out of the three walls I had become very acquainted with since I had been there. Whoever it is pulls me across the small room and props be up against the counter next to the sink. I struggle to stand up, but I can't even find my footing.

Sounds that I'm assuming are words radiate around me, but they never break through the haze I'm under - I probably wouldn't like them even if I could hear them. I have a memorized track of Marka's disappointed lectures running through my head 90% of the time - a stranger's words couldn't be any worse than that.

All I know is that there's a figure in front of me and she's taking care of me. I don't know or care who it is, but it's comfort I haven't ever known and that's enough to send me hurdling into her embrace terrified of my own humanity and afraid that the arms holding me close aren't real.

"I'm so scared," I manage to let the words spill from my lips. "I can't breathe," I say panicking. She hugs me close and urges me with calm words to match her own inhalations and my breathing starts to steady.

"You're safe here," she promises. Those words ringing in my ears like salvation. I take in a heaving breath and let myself slump against her and give into the unknown.

XOXOXO

A/N: I also should let you know that I have about five of these finished, so you'll get more words soon!
