Pain Pain Go Away Novels & Stories

I felt the edges of my vision start to blacken from all the pain that was tearing through my limbs. “Sir, she is going to black out again.” I heard a grumble. “Fine. That's enough for today.” I felt a prickle on my arm before more pressure and flinched at the next wave of pain that would soon undoubtedly rush through me. To my astonishment, the pain started to lessen and vacate my limbs. Slowly, I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding as the electricity started to leave my veins. I slumped against the table slowly, relishing in the newfound relief.

It lasted for only a few seconds before it was gone. Fred then took his hand from my face and opened his eyes. He looked at my cheek before a smile made its way to his lips. He met my gaze. "How's that?" I gave him a questioning look before I touched my cheek. The pain was gone. I tried pressing it but I couldn't feel a thing. "It's....gone. The pain is gone." I looked at Fred for an answer but he just smiled at me and straightened his posture. "How is it gone?"

A blow was landed on my cheek and it didn’t take longer than a minute for the pain to kick in and my face to start throbbing. I tried to set it aside but apparently the phrase “pain demands to be felt” proved to be true. No matter how hard I tried, the pain was there and it didn’t feel like it was disappearing anytime soon.

It never did. And then the pain disappeared suddenly again. My breathing slowed, the shaking died away and I fell to my knees, leaning forward with my elbows on my thighs, trying to catch my breath. I waited. For a minute, or maybe two, I wasn’t sure. My heart pounded loudly in my ears. Every muscle in my body was stiff. The pain wasn’t coming again. I finally took a deep breath. Slowly I exhaled. It hurt to even breathe after the pain in my body, I didn’t think I was even capable of breathing normally. But somehow, I managed.

We shared a look and grin before he left, and I leaned back onto the mountain of pillows that Sean had stacked behind me. I sighed out in relief, rubbing my tender chest where echoes of the pain still radiated through my entire body. The next wave of pain hit lower, feeling as if someone was pushing everything down. But compared to the pain from before, it barely felt like a pinch. And it disappeared quickly, followed by intense relief--- and wetness?! My eyes snapped open, a fresh wave of fear and disbelief coursing through my body. Oh shit! No! No, no, no, no, no!

I still didn't understand why. He started to get up and another wave of pain went through me. Although it wasn't as bad as before I still howled out in pain. He held me closer and the pain dimmed slightly but it was still there. It remained there with every step he took through the woods. I tried to distract myself from the pain by looking at the beautiful multi-colored leaves. It helped a little.The beauty of the red, yellow, and brown leaves illuminated by the sunlight peeking through the trees distracted me away from the waves of pain going throughout my body.

What she did made it worse. It's not stopping, though. Walking through the house, I go into the bathroom and sort out an ice bath. If anything the cold will seep deep enough to numb the pain. I sink into the ice bath and hiss through my teeth as the cold bites into my skin. It's brutal, but it's better than having a constant ache in my back. Leaning my head back against the edge I shut my eyes for a second. The pain doesn't ease instantly, but the cold is a distraction from the pain. Minutes pass, and my body goes numb. My thoughts begin to slow down, still drifting between Erin, the competition and the sharp pulse of pain that runs up my spine.

“Let it go. Release it.” I squeezed my eyes tighter, focusing on her words, on the burning, imagining it dissolving, evaporating. Slowly, painstakingly, the intensity receded. The burning faded to a dull throb, and then, finally, to nothing. I open my eyes, gasping for air, clutching my chest. The phantom pain was gone. Completely.

I stop after the first three steps. “Is it that bad?” His eyebrows furrow. “No, it’s not a big deal” I go to turn around, the pain coursing through my body. I grab the railing, trying to mask the flinch. This happens every so often. It typically goes away within a day. “Hey, come on. I’ll get you upstairs. Does it hurt when you sit?” Daniel asks his hand on my lower back. The warmth from his hand makes my rigid body ease. “Not too bad” I shake my head.

He tells me placing his head on our interlocked hands, he takes another breath in but keeps his eyes closed for a longer period of time after. “How can we make this go away?” I ask in a whine type tone as I feel my body begin to heat up, I knew this meant my break from the excruciating pain would be over very soon. “This is going to last for three days, but the way we stop it before that point will be too frightening for you to endure without the proper understanding.” He sighs but to hear I’ll have to go through this pain for three days, I didn’t care what the other option may be.
