I hid out in the kitchen, wiping myself down and wiping up the mess I had just created, we had just created.
“Shellie!” Harry called from the lounge. I took a deep breath and stepped out and into the room to see a bald headed man dressed all in black with his arms crossed defensively. He looked up at me with a smile as if he recognised me in some way.
“Very pleased to finally meet you Shellie.” He said, holding out his hand
“Forgive me for sounding rude here but I haven’t a clue who you are.” I said slowly, shaking his hand for embarrassingly longer than was necessary.
“I’m sorry.” He sighed, dropping my hand “My name is Merlin.”
“Really?” I raised an eyebrow and sat down beside Harry on the sofa.
“Arthur here tells me that you are happy to stay here for the moment.”
“Who?” I looked at Harry, confused. He in turn flashed a slightly awkward look over at Merlin.
“It’s my codename.” He explained, adding afterwards, “... although not one that I am used to at this point.”
“Oh yes, I should have known.” I replied. “Yeah, the secret organisation thing, your gonna have weird names. Nothing surprises me nowadays.” I decided to just accept that fact and move along. “So, Merlin how come we haven’t met before now? I don’t understand why none of my family have mentioned you before.”
“There was quite an age gap between me and your father; he was the eldest, a man with high ideals and expectations which our parents had instilled in him from the start. Unfortunately we have always had a love hate relationship ever since we were kids. “ Merlin began, the sadness in his eyes betraying his emotionless expression. “I hate to say this but it ended up spiralling past normal sibling rivalry, we were so far apart in our ways of thinking. It all blew up into a huge argument and I left to join Kingsman soon after. So I would imagine he wouldn’t have mentioned me.”
I could believe that, my dad was money and status driven. Everything was black and white with no inbetween. “No, he didn’t. But then dad always has been a stubborn sod where rows were concerned. I’ve never known someone hold a grudge for so long.”
We steered clear of the subject of family after that and were getting along quite well until he began asking about Rafe. My defensive barriers went straight up.“Your partner, Valentine has been under our surveillance for a while. We believe he has been in the process of creating a new drug. Something that will have an influence like no other on society.” Merlin leant forward as he spoke, his voice lowering as the conversation became serious.
“Rafe killed my dog; I don’t want to talk about him.” I said blankly, that was it, I did not want to entertain my mind with that man for a minute or I would start seeing visions of him angrily abusing my poor little dog.
“I know that” Merlin sighed. “But unfortunately we have to talk about him. He is producing something that could potentially be fatal to humanity; if not fatal then it will have a devastating result on the human mind.” He thought for a moment and briefly glanced at Harry before continuing. “Besides, we believe that Valentine was intending to test out his experimental drugs on you!”
I sat back; perhaps there were things that I really did not know about my boyfriend.
“Why me? I’m not anything special.”
“I beg to differ.” Merlin began, smiling. “A vivacious outgoing young lady. Writer, artist and member of two theatre groups. You achieve a degree in nursing and are now fully qualified. Then you meet a succession of men that control, degrade and you until you lose that spark day by day until you lose a part of yourself every hour. That is when they make you into something else.”
I felt instantly awkward, firstly at the fact that these people knew so many personal facts about me and secondly that it sounded such a pathetic story. Had I really lost so much...“So what did they make me?” I asked, sniffing back any emotions that brimmed to the front of my head during the last few minutes.
“Terrified, numb, losing control over your own life, your hopes and ambitions. Two months in a mental health unit, four broken ribs, two black eyes, four broken fingers. Self harming, four occasions of which you visited A and E and two others where you chose to stitch yourself up at home mixed with self medication of god knows what concoction of pills every night. That takes us to where we are now.”
It sounded horrific when put in a list like that. As he finished explaining in his fast abrupt fashion, Harry left the room hurriedly. I hugged my arms across my chest as I glimpsed him leaving out of the corner of my eye.
“So what happens now?” I shrugged, turning back to Merlin. “You lot bring me here, tell me my boyfriend is doing something illegal, so what do I do?”
“KIngsman are here to protect you, nothing more, nothing less. All we ask is that you can do the same for yourself, so I would advise that while you are here you dress differently, do not draw attention to yourself. We do not need Valentine to know where you are.”
“I don’t think I ever do draw attention to myself.” I shrugged, starting to feel a bit anxious, my heart pounding. The thought of Rafe actually being out there looking for me, and potentially being angry set me off. I tapped my hands rhythmically against my legs to distract myself but as usual it didn’t work very well. “Do you mind?...I’ll um be back in a moment.” I scuttled out of the door head down and almost collided with Harry on his way back. He grabbed my shoulder as I passed him without speaking, just wanting to go and lay down.
“Are you alright?”
“Yeah, I’m fine, I just don’t deal with it very well, talking about my fucked up head and all the stupid things I do sometimes. I want to go to sleep for a while.” I shoved past him with my head down, not in talking mode at all.
“Shellie don’t be ridiculous...”
“Oh I’m ridiculous now am I? It’s not my fault if he brings things up that make me feel weird.”
Harry grabbed my shoulders and pulled me close, gripping me tightly. “Sometimes feeling weird is an essential way of knowing your true self. If you do not feel weird and question every sensation your body experiences then how can you ever know your mind.”
I froze for a moment in contemplation; I wasn’t used to word play and deep explanations. I was about to answer when the lounge door opened with a creak, Harry released me in an instant and stood aside.
“Shellie, I have to leave now I am needed elsewhere but here is a number you can contact me on anytime you would like to talk or if you need to know anything. “
“Thank you.” I smiled, feeling like I should hug him or something, hugs were strange, it was like my arms and my heart wanted to but my mind wouldn’t let me approach and throw my arms around someone.
“No problem, remember we are only a moment away and never let your guard down.” He held my hand and gave me a look of concern; I sensed he felt the reaction his words had on me that night. I smiled in response and squeezed his hand back.
“You’re a good man.” ...I don’t know where that came from, it sounded very theatrical and clichéd. He just smiled, showing again the real man behind the stark exterior. Harry stepped past me and walked with hi to the door.
Merlin turned and smiled at me stood in the doorway of the kitchen. “I don’t want to hear you have put Harry through any trouble, or he’ll put you over his knee.” He joked as he left. I glanced up at Harry; he showed no reaction yet gave a mile from the corner of his mouth as he looked at my face.
