Bold and Vulnerable

Damian's lips quivered as he hugged his knees closer to his chest… or as close as he could. He glared at his muscular pecks in agony, wishing that he could be atleast smaller to be able to hide in one of the wardrobes of the empty rooms. He was running away from two people who were looking for him.

He cursed at himself as he had picked the tiniest place to fit himself in. He was not a fan at this super closed place. He bit his lips to silence the pain as his bandaged arm was beginning to feel more than uncomfortable due to his position, but what other choice did he actually have?

He widened his eyes and held his best when he could hear the cute giggles approaching the wooden furniture keeping him safe. He held his breath as he could barely see the shadow approaching the furniture and stopping right in front of it. He couldn't hear anything else but his heart pounding out of his chest and into his eardrum… until those tiny footsteps stopped.
