This story was inspired by another story on this site with a similar premise; the story, the last time I checked, didn't continue this branch of the story, and now I can't find it anymore. So I thought to write my version. I hope you enjoy it and comment with any suggestions or whatever if you want to. Have a good one, and here is the story. Happy readings.
John woke up like any other day and was planning to go about his life like he always did.
One problem though—he had changed from how he had been the day before without anyone noticing, not even himself.
John got out of bed, planning to put some clothes on when suddenly a splitting headache made him double over.
He screamed at the top of his lungs for over 10 seconds until the pressure just vanished and he felt normal again.
"What.. what was that?" he mumbled to himself in confusion, not understanding what just happened.
At first, it felt like he was going to die from the pain, and then... it just went away like clouds on a summer breeze flowing away.
He just couldn't understand what had just happened.
Suddenly he heard rapid thumping sounds coming from outside his door as someone ran over to his room.
"JOHN, JOHN, CAN YOU HEAR ME? WHAT IS GOING ON?" came a frantic shout from outside the door, accompanying the footsteps he just heard.
Before he could answer, his door was thrown open, revealing his mother in the door frame with a worried look on her face as she looked at his sitting form and wondered what could have caused him to scream so loudly.
"John, are you ok?" I heard you screaming from nowhere and came as soon as I could"
His mother asked this while getting closer to him and kneeling in front of him with that same worried expression on her face.
John looked into his mother's eyes and started to answer.
"I'm fine; I think it's just this..."
He started before he crossed eyes with his mother, and suddenly an echo of that earlier pain came back for just a second until he felt himself falling into her bright blue eyes.
They were so deep, he thought, so beautiful and deep.
He stared into her eyes for what felt like an eternity before he suddenly snapped away from them.
The thing is, it felt like he left something behind in those deep pools he had just swum in—something intangible but still so real.
He looked at her eyes again, not having the same feeling as before but feeling something was there just beyond the borders of reality, lying in wait behind those beautiful eyes, just waiting to do what he told them to do.
Whether via words or just his will, maybe even some subconscious desires would answer as well.
That... the dark thing behind those beautiful eyes would do anything for him, absolutely anything. as if it were an extra limb that had just awoken for him to use.
