"Hello!"
His voice is piercing. A perfect pitch to slice through silence and leave a ringing that will last for hours.
How annoying.
"I said 'hello'."
He cocks his head, brown eyes wide, round, and sparkling. They would almost be comical, if they weren't so dark.
"I heard you the first time."
"How was I to know? It's rude to ignore a greeting, you know."
He grins widely, lips pulling back to reveal the gap toothed smile of a seven year old recently visited by the tooth fairy. He almost looks innocent. He's damn near close to charming.
But not quite close enough.
"I know. I just don't like you."
His mouth adjusts to a position better suited for the shape of his face as he steps closer and leans in, a wordless challenge. An eyebrow quirks and he emits a quiet laugh.
It is humorless and terrifying.
"Wanna bet?"

Someone lock me up somewhere and throw away the damn key.Don't ask me what seven year old would act that way, cause I know none. Apparently this one. No one ever said I write accurately, but all things considered, I can see it.
